Pretty good food for a great price point. The food was flavorful and the proportion was huge (a lot of rice for the pork salad and shrimp+herbs). My favorite had to be the special pork basil with fried egg. Be patient when ordering, when we finally got to try the place, it was just one staff. We’ll definitely be back.

Side note: My husband and I have been wanting to try Nat’s for a while. It just never seemed to be in our cards. Last week, we tried coming on two separate ocassions in the evening (around 7pm) but they were closed both days. I checked their Facebook/Google page to see if I misread the time but it seems they were randomly closed.

I rarely go out for Thai food because, since I’m Thai, I pretty much cook Thai at home. Friends, however, often ask me for recommendations, and I think Nat’s will have to be at the top of my list from now on. We went for the first time recently, and my husband has not stopped talking about going back. He got the Kobe beef and basil and loved it. I got Tom ka shrimp and a Thai papaya salad that was just wonderful. Since we were the only ones there and decided to wait for our food to be cooked, we chatted with everyone working there including Nat. They were friendly, generous, conversational and super interesting. I have no doubts we will be back. Highly recommend that all Lexingtonians try this place at least once.

NAT’s, a downtown Lexington self-named Thai takeout, nestled between McCarthy’s Irish Bar and Harvey’s, serves some of the most delicious dishes we’ve tasted.

Nat (chef and owner) overcomes the equipment challenges by preparing mostly curry and soup dishes (known as “Kao Geang” ). That Kobe basil is on point. The Tom Yum gai is authentically sour and spicy, perfect for a fall night out.

Inspired by unique ingredients, he never stops serving innovative and probably one-time dishes, like the Watermelon curry chicken.

Though the restaurant doesn’t have its own dining room, his customers can enjoy the dishes in the outdoor seating area that’s shared with the Irish Bar.

Amazing food, friendly staff. One of my favorite places in Lexington. The interior is so small that you can’t open the door and stand inside at the same time, but there is seating all around the exterior. Prices are not bad, especially given the generous portion sizes.

We love Nat’s! If you find yourself enjoying the Irish Public House next door (McCarthy’s), you can just ask your friendly bartender for a menu. The staff of Nat’s will come over, take your oder, and even bring it to you! How convenient is that? They share a lovely back patio with McCarthy’s so grab a pint, some grub, and enjoy a little piece of heaven in downtown Lexington!

If you opt to get it to go, they will box it up for you. I suggest the pad thai. It’s beautifully balanced between sweet sauce and warm peanuts is definitely something to write home about!

Got an order of fish and chips delivered next door to McCarthy’s while watching the UK game. The portion was decent – 3 small pieces of fish and fries filling most of the rest of the box – and the quality was good. At $12 I feel it may have been a couple dollars overpriced, but it’s a great service to have delivery next door, and I’d be curious to try their Thai food!

If you are looking for amazing Tia food, this is the place. The food is excellent and authentic. I got the curry chicken stir fry and would recommend it. (caution it is spicy if you like heat go for it)

Nat’s is probably the most authentic and best Thai in Lexington and may be for a large surrounding area. I’ve had a lot of Thai food and Nat makes some of the best. It’s spicy, no doubt about that, but the flavor is markedly better than other places. He has a different special almost every day so there’s plenty of variety for repeat visits. Highly recommended.

All I can say is “WOW”!!!!!! This place is amazing. Best Thai food I have ever had! You order your food, and then move over to the Irish bar where you can sit and the owner will deliver your food over there. We were one of just a few patrons for lunch the other day, and the owner came and talked with us as we were eating, telling us about his cooking philosophy. He’s a true artist and chef with his food….never duplicating daily specials. The day we were there I ordered the special of ground pork with pepper sauce. It was amazing. My wife had a light and refreshing shrimp dish. I cannot wait to go back to Lexington to have Nat’s again. I’m a customer for life – and you should be too.

Had one of my best meals here. Hole in the wall, family run place that shares the patio with the Irish pub next door. The owner wasn’t overly friendly but he told us to order the Kobe basil and he was spot on. Amazing flavors with some heat too. The pad Thai was also delicious, love the egg that covered it. I’ve traveled to Thailand many times and eat at Thai restaurants in many cities, and these flavors rivaled even the best. Don’t miss this place!!
