Mal Thai Cafe - Wheaton

I've been visiting this restaurant for four years now, ever since my freshman year of college. The staff is friendly, the wait times are impressively short, and the food is top-notch. It’s also very affordable, making it easy for a college student like me to satisfy my cravings. And believe me, I crave it quite often! I usually come once a month, but sometimes I visit even more frequently. Without a doubt, this is my favorite Pad Thai in the US.

This place is fantastic. We have ordered a few times now and get something different every time, and we’ve loved everything. Highly recommend the pumpkin curry

I had the Chicken Pillow Thai, and while it was a bit spicy and the filling was somewhat limited, I definitely plan to come back for more takeout.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover this place! After moving to Wheaton, I was searching for a good Thai restaurant near downtown and was almost ready to give up until I found May Thai Cafe. I ordered the pad thai with chicken at a mild spice level. The portion size was very generous for the price, and everything tasted fresh. The mild spice level was just right for me, as I'm quite sensitive to spicy food—there was flavor without overwhelming heat. I'm excited to enjoy the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

Excellent Thai with fast service. Noodles, rice and curry are fantastic. Flavors are full and rich. Eat or take off. My favs are the Pad Woon Sen and Massaman Curry. Thai coffee also loves. The food is served hot and made from fresh ingredients.
