“ I love some Thai takeout food and Nud Pob lived up to expectations! I placed an order for a couple dishes and within just a few minutes, it was ready for me to pickup. My partner and I ordered pad thai with crispy chicken, pad kee mao with duck, and a thai iced tea. I was blown away by the pad thai - there were slightly less ingredients in this pad thai compared to what some other Thai restaurants serve, but the flavor was incredible. The crispy chicken was also a delicious touch and I love the sweet and sour sauce served with it. I wasn't blown away by the drunken noodles, but they were still tasty. They were a bit too ginger-y for my taste buds, but my partner really liked it. I was a big fan of their Thai iced tea though, it was not overly sweetened but the perfect palate cleanser between dishes. The portions here were very reasonable, especially considering the prices. Highly recommend if you're in the area and looking for some tasty takeout! ”
“ I went here multiple times a week during my time at BU , and I can say with certainty that this is one of the best Thai restaurants I've ever been to. Their portions are generous, the service is friendly, the prices are fair, and the food is unbelievably good. I'd really reccomend the basil friend rice and the Thai basil chicken. I just came back to Nudpob yesterday, for the first time in 2 years, and its quality is still just as good as when I was a broke college student. I hope they never close ”
“ Very very good! Located right on the Boston University campus, they have a huge menu of amazing food. I had the Mango Fried Rice with Tofu which was amazing, and some people in my party got the Chicken Pad Thai which was definitely the better order. The food also came out very quickly. I would definitely return here! ”
“ This place serves quick to go Thai food. If you are in the mood for different type of Thai dishes with affordable prices, this place is for you. The menu doesn't contain the dish description, so u need to ask the cashier what the dish contains. This place is a self-serve, you come up front to order and they will call your number for the food. The setup is similar to cafeteria. Personally, I always order Pad Thai when I try a new Thai spot, and I was not too impressed with the quality of the dish. The ingredients are somewhat not fresh when I tasted the meatball in the Boat Noodle. However, the cashier is very nice and friendly, and everyone here were enjoying their food! I think this place is like a place for the community to gather and get quick bites. ”
“ The Indonesian fried rice is a must!! The crispy pork is out of this world - super juicy and tender but very flavorful and crispy! It pairs very nicely with the slightly tangy soft fried rice. The Pad Kee Mao was also very homey - with each tofu bursting with flavor! ”
“ for the price: stellar. a great cheap thai food spot on campus with plentiful portions. my recommendation is to always opt in for the crispy chicken which adds a delightful crunch to any hearty dish. the pad see ew is always a great go to and for me, the pad thai is a little bit overly sweet. did not like the mango sticky rice when I tried it. ambience and vibe inside is nothing flashy- you order at the counter and pick up food when ready. food usually does not take too long to get though. get the chaing mai curry noodle - fantastic soupy dish adn crispy wontons add a delightful texture. fried rice portions are always very large. ”
“ So glad this place is back open again. It's a great campus eatery. I love how warm it is and the food is never disappointing. I usually always order the pad Thai or pineapple fried rice. The wait for food is usually 12-15 minutes at minimum. ”
“ I LOVE Nud pob. This Thai restaurant is conveniently located in BU central. It is family owned and all of the employees are really nice. Most of their customers are BU students. There's ample amount of seating, but they also offer take out. My go to is their tofu pad see ew. Portions are always generous, and costs about $12.50. They've got a ton of options on their menu, from curry dishes to squid prik pow. Definitely get their thai iced tea too - it's sooo good. Street parking is convenient right outside the restaurant. Overall rating: 10/10 ”
“ This is a solid, no frills place if you want some quick Thai food. There are plenty of solo diners, pairs, and families. The restaurant is located conveniently next to BU's campus, so expect to see a good number of students. I ordered the Star Noodle and enjoyed it. There's an intercom that announces your order number, and you have to get your own water and utensils. My food was ready in about 10 minutes, so the wait wasn't bad at all. If you're trying to limit talking to restaurant staff (and want a quick bite), come give this place a try! ”
