Good, quick service and flavorful food. It was our first time to Benjarong. The place is pretty tiny with probably less than 10 tables and it’s not fancy by any means but the service was good and the food was too. We ordered edamame to start with some of their yummy Thai tea and I of course had to try their chicken pad Thai. The hubby got the Beef and Broccoli. The chicken pad Thai had great flavor. Did have to grab my lemon from my water though to squeeze onto it. I usually like to add lime to my pad Thai to break up the sweetness. Usually lime comes as a garnish. The noodles were a little overcooked so they kind of mushed together but I did like how it was packed with perfectly cooked chicken and fresh bean sprouts. I also tried my husband’s Beef and Broccoli and thoroughly enjoyed the flavor of it. Fresh and flavorful. Overall this place deserves a solid 4 stars in my book. No, it’s not a fancy Thai restaurant so if you want fancy you should venture elsewhere but the service was friendly and the food was a-okay.

Came here on a whim because I love Thai food. Place was fairly nice and clean. Staff was really friendly and service was very fast. I had the pad Thai lunch special which ended up being around $ 11, which I think is a little overpriced but they did give a lot. Pad Thai was a little bit sweeter for my taste and the side salad had a sort of coconut dressing which was interesting but not for me. All in all, I would recommend this place but it is somewhat overpriced.

not very good… not even a good bargain. i don’t even understand how you can make such terrible thai food. unless you are just using all the worst ingredients possible. it was fast though thats why it even gets two stars

I frequent this place usually 4 – 5 times a month. The food is usually a hit or miss. Most of the dishes are over priced for it’s quality. I’ve ordered out many times and the noodle dishes, pad Thai and pad see ew are either cooked well or soggy. They do add a fair amount of meat which is nice. The soups are usually pretty good, but they add these strange hard dried out pork bits that makes the dish less appetizing. I didn’t realize this until recently, but I’ve been getting overcharged for the pad see ew/pad Thai dishes in adding chicken when it already is supposed to come with chicken, pork, beef and shrimp. The thing that really got me this time around is they charged $ 2.00 for cilantro without letting me know that there was an extra charge for it. I can understand if i added a meat to the dish for $ 2., but $ 2. for cilantro??? That’s more than it would cost them for 2 bunches of cilantro at the grocery store. Very disappointed with their dishonesty and lack of customer service. Unfortunate to say, this is definitely the last time I go to this place. 2 and a half stars for the food, but the recent experiences bring the overall stars to a 1.

We come here for dinner and it’s usual slow. Wait staff used to be good but recently they have slacked with no urgency. Food is not consistent… Pad Thai comes dry or too wet, guess it depends on the cook that day. The Pad Se Eu is good, but sometimes it is too salty. Hopefully this place picks up, it was really good the first time we came…

I have gone to this restaurant for years, and ordered over the phone many times as well. I always got the pumpkin curry, because it was good and one of the only things vegan. I had a painful time ordering over the phone on my final delivery experience with them. It took over 5 minutes of repeating every detail and spelling out my address. When the food showed up, it was green curry. I called to let them know, and they told me it was my fault because she had said it back to me. Basically, their employee’s poor communication was my fault. They refused to do anything about it. I refuse to do business with them anymore.

ok. I haven’t Been cooking lately so I tried this Thai resto. I ordered pad Thai and it was alright!!! lack in taste and presentation. I also ordered the beef jerky. and omg! it’s so bad I didn’t eat it anymore and threw it away! it’s so salty and hard as a rock I feel like my teeth will have problems if I eat one or two more of these… beef Jerkeys are hard but they are supposed to be chewable. not these Jerkeys they won’t give up the fight. overall staff is ok but pricey for a low class resto and the food is bad! the one star is for the staff and readiness my food quickly! will never go back again here sorry.

I love thai food and this is my all time favorite place to eat thai food in Vegas. I come here for lunch almost every week. There is never a wait, their lunch specials are so cheap and so worth it, and they’re service is really awesome. All the girls here are so sweet! Highly recommend!

Ordered pad Thai chicken and it was NOT tasty! The Thai tea is terrible as well! I eat Thai food at least twice a week and thought I’d give this place a try because it’s close by. but do yourself a favor and drive down to rainbow or go to fort Apache for some good Thai food!

First time going there today and I think this is some of the best yellow curry I’ve had all year! It is absolutely delicious and flavorful. I asked for a level 2 and got a level 2 which is important to me. The service was okay. Not bad not great but I will definitely be going back. Because I called in my order and carried out, I can’t speak to the service as a sit down customer. I also think the décor is dark, I wish it was more light and airy, but not a deal breaker. Overall, the food is amazing and i think I may have found my local Thai restaurant.

Great food and lunch specials. I would have given 5 stars but they don’t serve beer. Nice atmosphere and an awesome value.

Decided to try this place for the first time via delivery. The lady on the phone was very nice and thorough in confirming the order. Felt that the dishes were about $ 1 overpriced, but it’s worth paying a little extra for good food. Unfortunately I was quoted about a 90 min delivery time. Would’ve been much quicker to just go pick it up, but that’s the price to pay for laziness. Had red curry with chicken– good, but nothing spectacular Mongolian beef– again good, but small portion Mango with sticky rice– impossible to screw up Order with tip included came out to almost $ 40. Perhaps it would’ve been a better idea to sit down at the restaurant instead of ordering delivery for a first time experience, but overall I wasn’t blown away. However if I’m feeling like Thai and absolutely too lazy to drive for it, I might consider Benjarong again. But at the moment, I don’t see ordering from them again in the foreseeable future.

I love curry and have tried it at several places… Benjarong’s beef panang curry is the best! It never fails me. The staff is really friendly and got me to try a new dessert today… sticky rice soaked in coconut milk with mango — delicious! Warm, sweet coconut flavored rice w the bites of mango was a perfect combo! Yum!

Stopped in on my way home from a long day at work. I ordered a few items and they were prepared fairly quick and I was out the door to take it home. I get home and discover my food is covered in eggs when I explicitly asked for no egg and reiterated that I did not want egg. I call in to complain and they say sorry but that they are closing so I’d have to come back another day. How is that going to help me tonight? I tried to eat the rest of the food but it was soggy and overcooked. To top it off I tipped on a carry out order. Worst $ 35 I’ve spent on food in a long time. Next time I’ll just go to the subway next door.

2.75 stars. I’ve eaten here a few times over the years. I would say middle of the road Thai food. It’s convenient so that’s why I keep going back. I’ve had the roasted duck before. It was decent but not spectacular. I made the mistake of ordering duck fried rice here and I would give that dish 2 stars. There were literally huge chunks of duck thrown in with the rice. One would think I would be happy but not this gal. There were 6 – 7 pieces, most were fatty with bone attached. I would expect this kind of preperation for a typical sliced duck and steamed rice meal. For a fried rice dish however, meats are always boneless and cut into smaller pieces. At Pin Kaow they actually shred/dice the meat smaller so it’s distributed evenly in the fried rice dish. It’s so much better by leaps and bounds. I’ve also had the BBQ chicken at Benjarong which was also decent. Everything else I’ve had there has escaped me. That sums it up to not so memorable meals but not bad enough to boycott :-)

I’m Thai and I can say this is ‘authentic’. Their food is better than some restaurants in Thailand.

Talk about finding solid spot for Thai food. Honestly it gives my only five star Archi run for its money comes too Thai food in Vegas. I was originally going to try different spot down the road but since the place closed down like next on the bookmark. Talk about lunch specials that by far tops Archi comes to bang for your buck. The chicken satay lunch special with choice of entrée and still getting soup/nice little salad plus fried egg roll and wonton. All for basically ten dollars with tax. Steal of deal in my mind. The food speak for itself. Solid solid Thai food. The soup not sure if changes from day to day. It reminding me of congee with the rice and other goodies in it. It the perfect hearty soup start meal on Vegas winter day. The salad was nice the house dressing was solid. The fried egg roll and wonton is exactly that nothing special. The chicken satay get two skewers not huge more appetizers portion but perfect amount consider all the food you get. I ordered the sweet basil(ground chicken for protein). I went 3 since first time and had no idea the heat scale they do. The three was pretty mello just fyi. You get choice of rice steamed rice, or fried rice. Not sure if charge for brown rice but they do have it as an option. Everything I had was delicious. Compare to Archi if dealing with crowds is not your cup of tea should come too Benjarong cause came at prime lunch time not very busy. The food really good. The service was just as good. They were really nice, never had empty glass, and got the vibe small family run restaurants. Not doubt be coming back again try more of the lunch specials!!! =)))

Take out review!!! Well this place was the only Thai place near me that delivered and I was really craving beef pad thai. I got my order within 30 minutes… Score! It was hot, fresh, and yummy. We had spicy basil beef, crab rangoons, and beef pad thai. All were good except the crab rangoons, I have had way better, but for a fast order like this they were OK. My husband says he gives the basil beef 4 stars. Liked the pad Thai it wasn’t the best but it was good. The giroy that took my order was nice and the delivery guy was very polite as well. Very convenient and I would definitely order it again if I want Thai food that delivers!

Great food. Very tasty and generous portion. Came at 3:58pm and they wouldn’t serve the lunch menu anymore(which is until 4pm). Wouldn’t give the wifi password as well. Only reasons not giving 5 stars
