I would say that one could easily miss this spot, but try it out--even for takeout. I have tried the pad see ew and the pad Thai--both delicious. I especially enjoyed the pad Thai, which they were able to make very spicy! Of course you can ask for mild, but I greatly appreciate the spice level they were able to offer. The vegetarian pad Thai was also filled with so many veggies and tofu: julienned carrots, bok choy, broccoli, and snow peas. Often you don't get such a variety of veggies in vegetarian dishes at other restaurants. I got the mango sticky rice to go, however, I don't think it travels well. Service is quick. The lighting in the restaurant is a little dark so it might be best for a quick lunch or take out. Portion sizes are good!

Portion sizes are big and the service is honest. We went to order mango sticky rice after dinner and the waitress told us that the dish was available but the mangoes weren't totally in season yet so they were a bit sour. I really appreciated the transparency!

their playlist is on point whatever station they are playing but the music is too lowncompared to the people talking in here. i sat at the bar alone && their takeout orders are boomin! i got the poh tak soup (which i personally enjoyed the spice) && i had the crab/shrimp packets which were good && hugw. for cocktails i had 1 off their menu called singapore sling && then i got a lemon drop martini made w gin. it made do. i only say that because sounded like there was a lot left in the shaker. only thing id ask is more pleasant smell. && it isnt the food

The freshness of this dish blew my mind! Roasted duck is one of my favorite things to eat but it can be over cooked but not in this salad! And in true Thai spirit, the vegetables were crispy and fresh. I went on a slower day and was the only table being served, so the service was prompt as one would hope for in that environment.

Sometimes the random restaurants you pass by on your walk turn out to be some of the best ones unbelievably good. We liked the food we ordered, so we came two days in a row! I'll just get right to the food because you don't wanna miss this place if you like Thai food! LAD NA: My first time trying this because I've never seen it on a menu (at least I don't think I have). Fortunately, I had my friend with me and she was the one who ordered it. It's served in a thick gravy with soft and chewy wide rice noodles. There's a hint of smokiness that comes from slightly pan-frying the noodles for a bit. There's a few veggies and you can choose your protein. Second visit, we ordered extra veggies and it was the perfect amount. New favorite menu item! LARB GAI: Amazing flavor! Not too fishy or salty, it was just right. The ground chicken wasn't dry and had just the right amount of heat to it. Very impressed by this simple appetizer, wish they provided lettuce to wrap with though. TOM YUM: SO good! Piping hot with chicken, mushrooms, and the other necessary aromatics like galangal, lemongrass, makrut lime leaves, etc. The taste and seasoning was just perfect. It's one of my favorite tom yum soups out there. The prices were comparable to what I usually see at Thai restaurants so that's a plus. If I'm ever in the area, this is on the top of my list because I want to relive all these dishes again.

I've been a big Thaiphoon fan since I first moved to DC, and their quality has never gone down! They have the best pad see eew in town. It's always piping hot and moist with deep flavors. Pad see eew is one of my favorite Thai dishes, and it can be hit or miss at some other spots around town. Thaiphoon's is always incredible. I also love their curries, and had the yellow curry with chicken last time I was there. Can't go wrong with the sweet and savory flavors of Thai curry; Thaiphoon hits it out of the park every time.

I enjoyed coming here for a Saturday night dinner. I had panang curry and my friend got musaman curry. Both were flavorful and good portion sizes! I also enjoyed a mojito which was not too sweet just the way I like it. The restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived around 6 but it very quickly filled up and we had a hard time catching our server to get our bill by the end of the meal because they were so busy. The outside of the building is a little unassuming but they have a lot of seating and are able to accommodate large groups as we saw a couple groups of about 10 people when we were there. If you're in the Dupont area and looking for Thai food but aren't in a hurry this will be a good place to check out.
