Hands down the best Thai/Lao food in Irving in my opinion. Always the same tasty food and fast service. The older gentlemen working is always smiling and upbeat-I love it. Great new addition to Irving. The restaurant is also kept very clean which is an indication of how clean that kitchen is.

This place was recommended to me by a friend, and it certainly was a good one to try. Extremely friendly and kind staff, very nice and laid back vibes inside, and the food was absolutely incredible! I had the Curry Fried Rice and it was extremely delicious! Definitely worth stopping by and trying if you have the chance!

SO FREAKIN TASTYYYYY. I got the Lao papaya salad (not super sure on the difference between the Lao & Thai style is) & the combo pad see ew & a Thai iced tea. It all came out to about 35. It sounds pricy, but the portions are pretty big & I have more than half of the salad & pad see ew left. So I'm deff getting at least 2 meals out of it. I got the 3/5 spice level for both & I felt like i could've handled the 5 easily. It truly wasn't that spicy. But what it lacked in hotness, it made it up for in flavor. Ugh. I love this place now & deff coming back! Also the 2 ladies that helped us were SO kind, helpful & welcoming. Obsessed w them!! Such sweet ladies

Had a great experience at ZAAP Kitchen! I ordered the spicy curry fried rice with chicken, and it was delicious—perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of heat. The flavors were bold, and the portion was generous. Will definitely be coming back to try more dishes! The service was also great, as the delivery was prompt. Highly recommend!

We have been here three times this week! The food is delicious & seasoned. The coconut soup is amazing. We have gotten to-go only - but always hot & order right. Seems like most people order to-go the inside isn't very big, hut it does offer indoor seating. So happy to have a Thai spot now!

Best Thai place in Irving/Las Colinas. We eat a lot of Thai food and this place has outdone itself on all levels. Decently priced food that comes out fast. Excellent service, staff, and friendly owner. We will be back.

My husband & I are so glad this Laotian & Thai restaurant opened nearby. I was craving papaya salad & mango sticky rice, & they hit the spot! It was our first time trying Laotian sausage, & it was pretty good! We also got our usual pad see ew, but we’re going to come back for more! My husband & I really appreciate the self serve ordering kiosk (because we’re both introverted), yet it was pleasant knowing that the staff are pretty friendly as well.

I am SO glad that a laotian place opened this way. The inside is setup like their other locations and is tailored to Las Colinas. My go to order is the ZAAP combo just because my obsession of sticky rice and papaya salad stemmed from birth . I have an allergy and they were very accommodating. Service is friendly and the guy will explain what the foods are if you have any questions/concerns. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu. I'm personally a fan of their red or yellow curry w/ chicken outside of the combo. Parking area is shared w/ other businesses. Congrats on the new location ZAAP.
