Erawan Thai

Erawan Thai is an absolute gem in the heart of Columbus, Ohio! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality. The menu offers a delightful array of Thai dishes, each bursting with authentic flavors and freshness. I highly recommend trying their Pad Thai; it's a true standout with its perfect balance of sweet and savory. The staff's attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a memorable dining experience truly sets Erawan Thai apart. Whether you're a Thai food enthusiast or new to the cuisine, Erawan Thai is a must-visit destination that never disappoints.

We had the Tom Yum (seafood) in hotpot. It was delicious. We have had quite a bit of TomYum and this had the best flavor and tasty. We chose “3” on heat and it was hot but not too much. We shared this. We are “big” eaters and was enough for the two of us. If we are in the area again, definitely will eat there again.

The great reviews don't lie in this place! We initially almost drove away at first because the place looked deserted and in a small, unattractive location. SO glad we stayed! My wife and I ordered the Tom Yum hot pot, level 3 heat (out of possible 4). This was the best version of Tom Yum without coconut milk that we have eaten yet! There was LOTS of food for two, (ordered 2 bowls of rice). The balance of sweet and fish sauce was exquisite! Really unpretentious location and plating, but the food just shines!!!

I was greeted immediately and seated afterwards. The decor featured Southeastern Asian art. The service was quick the food was genuinely delicious. I will be back to try other dishes on the menu. It appears there are Laotian style dishes as well. Definitely check it out if you enjoy Southeast Asian food.

The best overall Thai we have found in Columbus. The Spicy Fried Rice is amazing and the curry’s and soups have always been delicious. Prefer the Pad Thai at Bangkok down the road personally, but they’re takeout only. Erawan is the place to go for sit down meals and the small staff is incredibly hard working and polite.

Real Crab Ragoon, I would come back here just to buy 6-8 of them for $8 or so. It is worth it. We actually got the sampler and wished we just ordered the crab Ragoon. I am used to the fake stuff so this was so good and reminded me of my fave crab Ragoon from a place in Portland Maine. The shrimp puff was tasty as well along with the peanut sauce on the app sampler. I enjoyed trying the satay and spring roll but the crab Ragoon would have been WAY better. The panang Curry was also delicious as I got it at 3 spicy on a 1-4 level. It was not too spicy at all. My nose started to run a little towards the end but the sweetness of the curry with 3 spice gives it a delectable flavor. I am usually a green curry guy but I would get the panang Curry again. My wife got the Pad Thai at a 2 and hers was definitely spicy. I thought it was pretty good as it was good for pad Thai but not the best ever. Service was quick and the food came out pretty quick as well. Our cbus Thai place had been Banh Thai before they shut down and this place would fill that void if it wasn't so far on the east side.
