A new Thai cuisine restaurant is coming to the South Castell Avenue area in New Braunfels.

Thai Isan House will open in mid-to-late January or February, said owner Todd Ratajik. Ratajik said he is uncertain of the date due to a the permitting process, including a variance to manufacture and serve Thai Isan sausage, a fermented sausage originating from northeastern Thailand.

The restaurant will serve a variety of other Thai dishes along with beer and wine. The restaurant will be located on the corner of Jahn Street and South Castell Avenue where the former gluten-free Red Oak Bakery operated until mid-2022.
