Reviews for Deejai Thai Restaurant in Charlotte, NC

Quaint delicious gem minutes from uptown. Staff was super friendly and the basil bourbon smash is to die for!

I heard about this place from a friend and it was a pleasant surprise. The restaurant has a very romantic vibe to it. The... service was very good and quick with bringing our orders out. I ordered a cocktail called jolly rancher and it was so good ittasted just like a green jolly rancher. We ordered pork banh mi buns and they were the best buns I've had the bun itself wasvery soft and the pork was delicious. I got the pad woonsen which I believe is glass noodle dish and my girlfriend got pad prikboth were very tasty. I haven't seen these dishes at other Thai restaurants so which I'd say speaks to the authenticity of thisrestaurant. I really wanted to try the Thai crepes before even coming here which is another Thai dish that I hadn't seen beforeand we both loved it. This is by far my favorite Thai place and we'll be sure to come back. Read more

The only thing me and my boyfriend could say during our time here was "Wow". After every bite, total bliss. We got the pork banh... mi buns which were so fluffy and seasoned so well. My boyfriend got the Jolly Rancher cocktail and he said it tasted just like ajolly rancher!! I got the Pad Prik and it was perfect blend of spice and sweetness ????? We also got the Pad Woonsen and ittasted great, on top of the Thai crepe!! The Thai crepe was so flaky and the mangos were so sweet ???? 10/10 will def comeagain! Service was also fast and the outdoor area is so cozy ???? Read more

The Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) just weren?t great? they were over cooked, lacked flavor, vegetables and soggy?. I?ve eaten... this dish at hundreds of authentic Thai restaurants on the west coast, and this was candidly one of the least impressiveexamples. I?ll give the restaurant another try, but don?t go here expecting to be impressed by this dish. I ordered 4/5 spicy,and it barely made my nose sweat. For some reason, everything also had a subtle gas/charred undertone to it as well. Conclusion:I?ve had amazing Thai food for half this price, so it can be done. Read more

Very good, the server is also very nice, we went late so it?s not very busy .lobster roll is delicious, pork bun is my favorite,... mango sticky rice is too sweet for me, But i will come back again Read more

Arrived in the late afternoon for dinner. Not terribly busy, opted to go eat at the shaded outdoor patio. Service was fast and... staff was friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. Tried fried the bahn mi sliders and fried spring rolls. Main course wasDrunken Noodles with beef and Chicken Pad Thai. The Drunken Noodles were appropriately spicy and the Pad Thai was excellent witha wonderful appearance. Portion size was just right so you might not have leftovers but still have space for dessert. Finishedthe night with Mango Sticky Rice and a few drinks, a lychee-tini and a Mango- mimosa style drink Price was fair for the qualityof the meal, wouldn't certainly call this a place to grab a cheap meal but the food was world class. Would definitely recommendgoing again. Read more

Please note this review is not for their restaurant but for their food truck. The lemon grass chicken was NOT lemongrass'y at... all. It was flavourful but not the dish I was promised and was disappointed. So 6/10 Next, my pad Thai. I specifically askedfor Thai spice and said Level5/5 (since that was their highest) but when it arrives it was blah. Very disappointed. So4/10. Last but not the least, everyone wants to know if they got value for what they paid for. These two dishes came up toalmost $38bucks from a food truck. Now, that's like fine dining restaurant pricing. C'mon. So 4/10. Overall, prettydisappointed. Read more

We came in on a Friday night and was greeted and seated right away. The service was excellent. The food was very good. All the... dishes were hot and fresh. I got the Mountain stake and my wife got Lemongrass chicken. We also got spring rolls and sushi asappetizers. The Thai Crepe for desert and the wife said that was her favorite. I will say it was really good. My only complaintwas I thought the portion size was kinda small for the price but food had good flavor. I would say a must try if in the area andwanting some Thai food. They do to-go orders if your not wanting to eat in or they have a little outdoor area. Read more
