BOONNOON Market

So glad I finally got to try Boonnoon! There are menu items that I've never seen anywhere else -- what a unique experience! The prices are very reasonable and the flavors are great. I appreciated that none of the items we got were sweet, and each had very distinct flavor profiles. I loved the basil eggplant with shrimp -- wonderful savory flavor and textures. We got the hor mok, a fish custard, which had a slight coconut flavor and a nice texture. The pork and crab nuggets had a nice crispy exterior and were packed with meat. The mok nor mai (bamboo pork soup) was pungent but quite tasty and full of tasty ingredients. There's a lot on the menu that I still want to try, but I don't think you can go wrong here! Looking forward to my next visit.

Tried Boon Noon Market in Arlington and was really impressed. The spicy peanut noodles had the perfect kick and a deep, nutty flavor. Chicken satay was tender with that smoky char and creamy peanut sauce. From the specials, the Panang curry stood out — rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced. Everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned, with real care in the cooking. Definitely a hidden gem I’d go back to for another meal.

One of my favorite restaurants ever. Anything on the menu will be good. I love that they have a little store where you can buy pantry items, snacks, etc. It is small but very cute and welcoming inside. In the summer they also have a nice outdoor seating patio. Staff are excellent and kind. Love to recommend this spot to friends!

Heard a rumor at the gym…that the cute Thai guy owned a restaurant down the street, lol! Rounded up my husband and friends to check it out! (Pardon the low-quality photos, but you get the idea.) BoonNoon Market is an unassuming, hole-in-the-wall restaurant/take-out place…but don’t pass it by, it’s one of Arlington’s best kept secrets! The food is authentic and flavorful…transporting me back to once upon a time when I lived in Thailand for two months, watching my life flash before my eyes in those tuk-tuks, exploring the Bangkok night markets, and buying street food in plastic bags, sealed with a rubber band from the man hunched over a wok at the street corner. I have yet to try everything on the menu, but my go-to dishes are the Panang Pork Curry and Moo Honk! My go-to apps are the wing

We got takeout pad Thai, fish cakes (tod mun pla), curry noodles (Kao soi), moo honk (braised pork), pandan rice cake (Kanom chan). Everything was delicious. Food came on time.
