Coat & Thai — Restaurant in Austin

Came to Coat & Thai after looking for a good food truck park while visiting Austin. The food smelled amazing while walking by and browsing all the trucks. Ordered the Pad Thai since it's common dish as Thai restaurants, so gives you a good comparison measure. Also ordered the Spring Roll Shrimp and a few of the fruit drinks in a can. Prices were very fair and cheaper than most restaurants. Staff was very nice and friendly when placing the order.

After about 10 minutes, they called my name to pick up the order. Food was packed nicely with the Pad Thai in a foil bowl with the peanuts packed separately. Spring Rolls were also packed neatly in their own container. Pad Thai and the Spring Rolls were both freshly made and presented nicely. Pad Thai was good, but I should've inquired if you had a choice of spice as it wasn't spicy at all. Noodles were cooked just right with a nice mix of green onions, sprouts, chicken, and peanuts.

I don't know why it's taken me so long to write a review.... But, now here I am. To start with, the owners are absolutely lovely! The location is spectacular, right by Zilker Park, who would ask for more? Now about the food:

The tofu is wonderful and they also have chicken and beef...

I’ve been coming here for YEARS, used to be my absolute favorite spot. Would come once or twice a week regularly for about 3 years now. Not as often before but was always a favorite. Used to be family owned and operated and reasonably priced. Lately I’ve been more and more disappointed. The prices have gone up, the new employees don’t seem to care about the quality, they’re always out of things (all problems I’ve never experienced before, and like I said have been coming here consistently for a while now) and I’m just thoroughly annoyed and disappointed because this place was my favorite comfort food. I haven’t even branched out to new Thai spots because I loved this one so much, but I’m thinking it’s time to try...
