Café Equator Thai Cuisine - Metairie

Holy Moly! I was pleasantly surprised! Where do I start? My Sis and I stopped here somehow impromptu. We just wanted to sit somewhere and eat. At first there was no parking when we were there. We were told we could park in the breauxmart parking lot above the street, which is no problem. You have a small parking space on the back like 4 or 5 cars worth parking, so keep that in mind when you pull up. At the entrance we were so kindly greeted and we sat immediately. It is a smaller, more intimate restaurant. The environment was quiet and turnkey. The music wasn't loud and overlaid as if you were in some restaurants, so we didn't have to scream together to make a conversation. It was right. For apps we had the fried Calamari, delicious! We destroyed that! For the main course I had the ginger Tori (chicken) and my sister had the grilled pig. Oh, my God. The food here: AMAZING! Everything was fresh and so delicious! I couldn't stop eating, I didn't even have a breath. It was so good. The food was really seasoned and everything was mixed so perfectly. The egg roll was so good, but my only handle: the egg roll was too small, two bites and it's gone, haha. The sauce they made was fantastic. Everything was cooked for perfection. By the way, your dishes come with rice. It's not on the menu, but it comes with it. You can always order extra on the page. The portions are also a healthy amount. Overall a great culinary experience, but my only problems are the parking lot and the tiny egg rolls. In addition, I would definitely recommend this place for great Thai food!

Best Thai restaurant so far!! Great quality and flavors in the dishes! The staff is nice and helpful! The place is beautiful and cozy!

I had the penang chicken. It was sooooo good. It was smaller than outside. The waitress was great.

Great location with a parking garage nearby. This is important because the parking lot for the restaurant quickly fills. Beautiful interior with friendly, professional staff. Thai tea was on the sweeter side, but the drunk noodles were excellent. Definitely worth a stop if you want large Thai food.

My favorite place for thai food. I’ve tried all thai spots and nobody can get it right but them! My favorites are the veggie rolls, basil fried rice, and their pad thai. Everything is always fresh and balanced between the proteins and veggies. Portions are always bigger when you order in than through uber. Their chili oil is a must with all of the entrees!! I literally eat here 3-4x a week, every time my friends ask where we should eat I always pick Equators.
