THAI FOOD WAWA
Northern Thai flavors combined with the finest ingredients from California.
Chef WAWA's bio
I grew up at a Thai street food restaurant with my family. My mother opened her restaurant…
I can always count on Wawa Thai for fast fresh neighborhood food. The Coconut Salmon is fire! You can't go wrong with the fresh spring rolls- super healthy and fresh . The upgrade to brown rice is worth it! It's not that soggy gross brown rice. It's got texture and nutty flavor. Highly recommend!

Very flavorful. They load a lot of ingredients for the dish which is great. Though Only thing to recommend is to use a larger container for curry entree dishes as there is barely any sauce due to so much ingredients.

Always a delightful meal from Wawa. The roti is crisp, fried chicken is delicious and not even a little greasy. The curries are always a standout, satay is great. Tried the Tom Kha this time and it was perfectly spiced and flavorful. Food is packaged well to take home. Love this place.

For the most part, I liked oth the Thai Fried Rice and the Pad Thai, especially the Pad Pad Thai, which was quite flavorful. The portions were also more than enough and packaged well. The only thing I didn't like was how the tofu had been prepared for both dishes. It was tasteless and just bland, texture also seemed a little different. I love tofu and get its my protein in most Thai dishes. For the Fresh Spring Rolls, I was surprised to see how large the potions were. Based on the picture, I thought they'd be cut into smaller sizes. Additionally, because of this, everything was just falling out of the wrap - almost of if they stuffed way more than they needed to. I didn't even finish it because of everything just fell apart after only one bite. Overall, I would be open to trying new dishes (first time ordering from here), but hoping more attention will be paid to the tofu, so I can continue to add it to my main meal.

I have never encountered a dish by Wawa that isn't top tier tasty. My favorite Oakland Thai spot. They're also super personable and thoughtful! This time when I came for pickup, the guy behind the counter took the time to add ice to my Thai tea; he really put attention into not letting it melt while it was waiting. The Thai tea was bomb, btw. Not too sweet, but packs a real punch. He also took the time to answer my food allergy questions. The worst criticism I can give is that I was hoping for more than six wings for $15, but I wasn't mad when I bit into them, and I would order again.
Takeout is kind of a big treat these days, and the depth of both culinary and human care that went into my order really made my night.
