Cafe U and I

Everything is tasty.

This restaurant features authentic Thai food. It is slightly pricy, but it is delicious. However, there is little seating here.

I’ve been on the search for great Massaman curry for almost a year and a half now and it’s been a challenge in the Alexandria/D.C. area. I can say I’ve finally found a place that fits the bill. I am dubbing this my favorite Thai restaurant in Alexandria. My boyfriend got the pad Thai and loved his dish as well. He said it was one of the best Pad Thais he’s ever had and we were both happy with the portion size. Next time I’m craving Thai, I’ll be going here!

Very good food. Love the Satay.

Excellent food

I went here once and the food was good.

Great authentic Thai food, especially southern cuisine. Generous portion, good price and nice service. Gotta come back again for Sure!

Was The best

We came in for lunch, were greeted and seated promptly. They brought us waters immediately and were great about refilling them. We got 2 orders of pad see ew, one with chicken and one veggie with tofu. The bill came to $21.20 with tax for a sit down lunch for 2 people was very reasonable. Portion sizes were good, we both had leftovers. Flavor was good, quality of noodles and chicken was above average in my opinion. The one thing that thru me a little was the egg wasn't cooked with the meal, it was added to the top at the end. Overall the service, food, and price were all very good!

Fresh wholesome and flavorful!

There's a small restaurant with very delicious authentic Thai food.recomened👍

Don't let the nondescript building (or name!) fool you, this place is fantastic. All the dishes tasted amazing, and the portions were substantial too. Very good stuff.

A good spot for Thai foodPortions are huge for the price you payI went with a group of 6 and we all ordered different dishes and tried each others food. Everything was really deliciousI would recommend going to this placeGood food is better with company

Very good Thai. It's where Thai people eat. It takes just a bit of convincing to get them to make it Thai hot for Caucasian people but they will do it.

My boyfriend and I went here on a rainy Wednesday afternoon. I was craving Thai food and he found this location in Annandale - and I'm so glad that he did! I ordered the vegetable mix with chicken and rice, and my bf got the drunken noodles with chicken. We also ordered a Tom Yum soup with shrimp and Thai iced teas which were both nice as well. Service was friendly and food came out quick - my kind of place. Next time will order the sticky Mango rice dish for dessert. Will definitely come back again!

Once you find it, you'll keep going! And see the same other patrons there along with some of the family of the folks who run it. Pork belly, curry, Thai tea & coffee, and beef skewer app. are all wonderful! Can't go wrong with any order, though.

Hidden gem on LRT. Easy access, friendly service, yummy flavors. The Tom kha is some of the best I've had. Will definitely be back.

Plenty of parking spaces. Good location. The staff are friendly. You dont have to wait for too long to be served. The Food is mouthwatering!!. Reasonable portions for the price. Clean and well maintained restaurant.

Easily one of the best Thai food places in the area. Clean, friendly and family owned. This is a hole in the wall location that uses high quality ingredients with no frills. It's price points are not for everyone so if you are expecting a cheap, non authentic meal go somewhere else.

Prices are good and the food is amazing. I don’t usually eat Thai food from restaurants and opt to make it myself at home but wow!! I have tried a few dishes so far and it’s so good I forget to take a picture because I’m so busy eating and enjoying the taste. The food here is great and I have enjoyed every dish so far.

Had Drunken Noodles. A little bit oily. Otherwise good flavor.

Our office had this delivered for lunch recently and it was fantastic. Best green curry I've had in a long time and the portion was far more than I expected to get for a lunch menu price. I'll be taking my wife there to check out the dine-in experience as soon as I'm able to.

Delicious food. Great customer service. A bit pricey, but good sized portions and convenient location are worth it.

Excellent taste and portion of food

Good Thai food! Plentiful portions. Staff is always very nice. A gem in Annandale!

Excellent food, service, and price. We are repeat customers.

Good service, excellent food, reasonable prices.

Very good Thai food and friendly staff! Not a fancy place just simple tasty!

Fantastic food! Great Service! Cha is very friendly and makes us feel welcome, and remembers us even though we are new to the area! 🌶🍤😍

Good place for eat

Friendly staff, great service, and excellent food in a small in assuming convenient location in Annandale. A wonderful escape from the over populated Korean restaurant scene there. I've never been disappointed with my food selection, or the generous portions. Price points are in line with the other surrounding eateries. Go give it a try!

Authentic Thai food

This must be my new favorite Thai spot. They have a couple of very good dishes that you can't order at your regular Thai restaurant and they are GOOD. Everything I want in Thai food: flavorful (even though salty but I like my dishes saltier than the average Joe) and spicy. Most Thai places only make it "safe" spicy for you even though you ask them to make it Thai spicy.

Service is always great. Food is always delicious! It's my favorite Thai place in the DMV!

So good!! The food came out in a timely manner and I enjoyed every bit of it. The staff was very attentive, constantly making sure our waters were filled and taking away plates when they saw we were finished. We were a party of four and all of us ordered appetizers. Definitely will come again. I reccomend their tom mak hoong/papaya salad. Honestly some of the best I've ever had. Especially enjoyed that it didnt burn my tongue off, either

Hard to explain. Thai Food (what kind of a name is that, anyway?!?) is inconspicuously tucked away on a service road off Little River Turnpike in the Korean neighborhood, but serves absolutely top quality food... following the Tyler Cowen Rule. Everything is just somehow tastier, fresher, tangier than other Thai restaurants, and to make it even better, there are lots of intriguing variations on the classic dishes. Hard to convey in this format! You'll just have to try it yourself. Highly recommended.

Great value for your money!! I recommend the green wonton soup. Unique presentation and wonderful flavor.

Best, and most authentic Thai restaurant in area. It's the only Thai restaurant my Thai friends will go to. And once they get to know you will actually eat it , they will make it actually Thai spicy for you even if you Caucasian

Quaint interior & good value. Green wonton soup & green curry chicken was delicious.

Authentic Thai food. Reminds me of the food I had in Thailand. Papaya salad is a must try!

I love Thai food here because it is so Thai style. You should try all of these pictures. High recommendation!!!Searvers are nice and kind.

I really love that food and this is one of my favorite restaurants on the are, me encanta esta comida, es riquísima se las recomiendo!!!😋😋

The best Thai food I have found in this area so far. The spring rolls and drunken noodles are great. The prices are fair and you get a ton of food. More than enough for 1 dinner.

Nice hot food prepared to order. Great customer service.

We've been here twice the first time the food was excellent the second time we were the last ones in and could tell our food had been cooked with other items overall worth going again.
