Beginning with a dream to bring authentic Thai food to the United States more than two decades ago, the owners of Thai Luang have turned this Herndon restaurant into a popular destination for Thai cuisine. Thai Luang's chefs use only the freshest ingredients and spices to maintain meticulous authenticity.
One serious standout menu item (referred to as “last meal”-worthy by one diner) is the carefully deboned crispy duck, marinated overnight and cooked to-order. Seasoning options include a spicy red curry, lightly sweetened with coconut milk, pineapple and sweet basil. For more mild flavors, experience the duck in a rice noodle soup or a citrusy salad. Steamed pork dumplings filled with tenderly marinated pork, Pad Thai and a variety of curry dishes are also popular menu selections.
The ambiance features intricate royal Thai artwork and other delightful little touches. The service is known as friendly and attentive, and the owners are even known to check in with guests.
