Rao Thai Eatery - Elk Grove

Ordered boat noodle, the price on the menu says $12 but the bill says $21. The waitress says the menu is old and the new price is $21 Really? And it sounds like this is not her fist time saying it. And the taste was okay definitely not worth $21!

Came here thru the hype...Stick with the Thai Boat. Calamari was soggy, BBQ chicken was decent, and Drunken Noodles was alrite. Service was okay. Place can get pretty full quick. Would come back for Thai Boat only. Thai Boat 4.5/5

Falls very short of the average Thai eatery expectation. Got the yellow curry, pineapple curry and tom kha soup. Feels like the food was made to order from instant or other curry sauces. Lack even the average taste that we have started to expect. I would skip this place next time or try something else.

So glad we decided to make the 30 min drive to this place. Was craving boat noodles, and they did not disappoint. Very flavorful! We also had fried wontons (barely any cream cheese), Lao style papaya (in my personal opinion it tasted more like Thai style), oyster shooter (freaking delicious but 3.50 for one shooter), and mango sticky rice (Yumm)

Very tasty food, great to share dishes with friends/family. Attentive waitstaff!
