Location: Durham, NC

Overall Impression:
Casual, classic American Thai food in the heart of downtown Durham. We think it’s the best Thai in the city. Or at least the best drunken noodles!
Leslie’s rating: 4/5 (for a casual spot)
Colin’s rating: 3.5/5
Ambiance:
You don’t go here for the ambiance. It’s quick, it’s not too expensive, and it’s great Thai food.
Service:
We usually do takeout, but when we do dine in, the service is fine. Nothing to write home about.
What we ate:
- Crab rangoon: Crispy, not too greasy, and the perfect ratio of crab to cream cheese.
- Drunken noodles: Most casual Thai restaurants do not do drunken noodles well from our experience. They are bland and often overcooked and we just end up feeling disappointed. Thai @ Main always gets them right with lots of flavor and vegetables. The perfect comfort food when we come back from a trip or don’t feel like cooking.
- Massaman Curry w/ Chicken: Thai restaurant classic that they do a great job on. Packed with flavor and creaminess.
