I am always looking for a good Thai place on my side of town and I was really pleased with this restaurant. I usually get Thai tea, but I was intrigued by the ginger tea and decided to give it a try. It was very refreshing and seemed to also cleanse the palate and cut down on the heat between spicy bites of food. We started with the spring rolls. They were stuffed with chicken, shrimp, and loads of fresh veggies. I loved the spicy dipping sauce that came with them. Next came the Tom Kha Ga which was rich and delicious with just the right amount of heat. We finished with the Thai Cashew Chicken. I wasn't expecting the chicken to be flash fried, but it worked very well in this dish. You can choose your level of spiciness so we went with between medium and spicy and it was perfect. The bell peppers, onions, and carrots that came with the dish had great flavor. It was a really fresh and light dish even though the chicken was fried. I can't wait to go back and give the rest of the menu a try. read more

Thai food is one of my favorite Asian cuisines. This little franchise is pretty good. I have eaten at several of them. Tonight I got pad kee mao togo and the portion was huge! The prices are very reasonable and an entree can easily feed two people. Thumbs up for good Thai! read more

Quiet and somewhat hidden restaurant in a small strip center. There is ample space to dine it, yet as I sit and observe, I see many customers arriving to pick up those orders to carry out. The atmosphere appears to be clean and tidy and the cashier is both pleasant and helpful as you place your order. I ordered the the Crab-fried Rice with a spice level of spicy. It was perfectly seasoned with bits of lump crabmeat throughout. I've also ordered the Pad Kee Mao , which is a wide noodle, some veggies, your choice of protein or tofu, and spice level of course. I've also tried to Green Curry (with choice of protein) and choice of spice level. ALL have been consistently prepared and equally tasting with the perfect balance and ample portions. Nothing here is lacking flavor nor would EVER be considered bland. I enjoy spicy food...not TOO spicy, because I like to enjoy my food, but enough to give it just a little kick. If you don't choose a spice level, they will prepare your food at a spice level below spicy (spicy being mid level of bland to mouth burn from the land of Hades) *if you subscribe to restaurant.com, they honor the certificates in $5.00 increments...hey, every little bit helps. Give them a try...I guarantee you won't be disappointed. read more

Anothai Cuisine - Crab Fried Rice (to go)...close up to show detail...portion size is more than ample. Two people could easily dine on an order. - Thai Near Me - Spring, Texas

This place has pretty authentic Thai food and the service was okay. Not many people here to enjoy food. I had the lemon grass soup with chicken medium spice and it was really tasty. We had the spring rolls fried and uncooked and both were so fresh with carrots and other veggies. Fast service. No regular coke though. . read more

Coconut soup wasn't bad, but definitely not great. We ordered to-go and when I got home realized they didn't give me any peanut sauce with my spring rolls. Kinda disappointing. read more

Very good authentic Thai food! We Got the Thai fried rice, pad thai, and appetizer wings. All flavorful. Be careful if you ask for spicy or it will be SPICY. Good lunch prices but be aware if you got for take out - you don't get the soup with the lunch portion. That is only dine in. Overall great and I will return. I will get he pad Thai with shrimp read more

We usually come here for lunch, or the time between lunch and dinner, and it's usually pretty empty, but I imagine it's busier during peak eating hours because this place is really good! Also, this isn't there only location, so I think they have Thai down pretty good. I like to get the Ginger Lover Chicken, medium spicy. Another fave is the Pad Kra Pow (sp?) with shrimp, medium spicy. Their spicy is SPICY, so I would take down a notch what you usually do. I had hot at first and I was tearing up, sweating and my nose was on overflow, haha. They may have adjusted this a bit because I went to medium but now I ask for Medium/hot. The Thai iced tea is highly recommended to cool off that hot mouth, I love it. The waitstaff here is very friendly and always check on you. The rice is perfect, I believe it's Jasmine...soooo much better than the regular white rice from other places. Place is small, nice inside with red accents. They put down the paper you can color on with crayons. I particularly enjoy this and have many works of art saved in my phone :P read more

The Red curry chicken was amazing! Great flavor and ample quantity for dad and daughter to share. The basil chicken however was not. After the fact the server suggested to order diced chicken instead to have more flavorful. May try it next time. read more

My wife and I have been here a few times in the last month. We love this place. The food is cheap and delicious. We love the Tom Ka Gai, red curry, chicken peanut sauce (satay) and chicken pad thai. We haven't had anything that is not delicious! The ladies that work here are...well...authentic! They do a fantastic job; service is quick and food is hot. The price is really cheap I find. Went there today for lunch, going tomorrow. Will probably go every day for lunch when I'm home from work. read more

My parents live down the street from this place so I've gotten togo from this place a few times. The first few times the food was pretty good. Unfortunately I cant say the same about the last time we ordered food from here. The curry was extremely watery and there was barely any meat in it. The noodles were really greasy and flavorless. I doubt I will order from this place again. read more

Solid Thai for the area, soup, spring rolls, ginger delight and anothai fried rice with extra egg!

This place is losing its quality and service seems like they're rushing you. Ordered beef pad Thai and literally took 2 bites off the dish. Beef was chewy and they drenched the noodles with sauce. Been loving this restaurant for awhile but now I guess it's time to move on. read more

This is a small, family owned business so come in with that expectation for service and you'll be right at home. We ordered Sweet and Sour chicken which was great. Lots of vegetables and sauce with the meat, which wasn't too greasy considering it is deep fried. We also had yellow Thai curry which was really tasty. Not too spicy but a little bit of a bite. Definitely enjoyable and the chicken was well cooked. Last we ordered the Pad Kee Mao which was also really good. Really flavorful and again served with quite a lot of veggies. Overall the portions were big, the food was tasty, the restaurant was quiet and peaceful and we'll be coming back. Sure it might not look like much from the outside, but the steady stream of take out orders tells me the locals know a good place. read more

Anothai Cuisine - The main reception area. - Thai Near Me - Spring, Texas

The female owner is very rude! I came in and sat at the bar and the waitress asked where I would like to sit and I said, "the bar is fine." As I was sitting down, the female owner abruptly stops the waitress from handing me the menu and snaps at her in their language and points to a table. The waitress shyly asked me if a table was better. I kindly replied, "I'm fine right here at the bar but is SHE would like me at a table, then I suppose I will go to a table." So I go sit at one of the tables and then she is taking my order and my entree came with a spring roll and soup but the soup has meat in it and I'm vegetarian so I ask if they can substitute an extra spring roll for the soup. The waitress awkwardly laughed and said, "I'm sorry.... My boss does not allow that." Wow! I came here once 3 years ago and remember a rude owner then. I never came back because of that but today, I thought I'd try it again as I was in the area waiting on someone. Big mistake. Same bad energy and rude service as 3 years ago. read more

Best Thai food around. Chicken satay and Thai chicken wing delicious, fresh and fried spring roll amazing Been going here for years haven't found a Thai place to measure up. Pad Thai is awesome , anothai fried rice is wonderful. They have a great lunch menu that you get a yummy soup and spring roll with. Big portions. 10/10 read more

Yep, Meh... Hubby and I came here with a Living Social deal because we are almost always in the mood for Thai. The restaurant is nice and I really liked the décor inside. The wait staff was on point, although not really friendly. But ultimately, the food just did not deliver, as only one of four dishes we tried was just right. What we tried was (everything was ordered spicy): -Chicken Tom Yum Soup: They describe it as lemongrass soup, but if there was lemongrass (or ginger) in there, you could have fooled me. Salty and blah. -Chicken Spicy Basil Fried Rice: YUM! The best dish. Tasty and spicy-done just right. -Beef Pad Kra Pow: Flavorful and tasty, but not nearly spicy enough. -Chicken Wild Curry: Lots of meat and veggies, but the curry was just like broth and had NO taste...NONE! Yet was hot (spicy)...can't figure out how they got heat without flavor... Of note: They don't serve alcohol. I don't know if it's BYOB or not. We will not be back. There is another Thai place just as close to home and much tastier, so we will continue to be their customers. read more

Horrible rude person at counter. Refused to take my order even after I offered to come back 30 mins later to pick up. She wouldn't even look at me as she blew me off. Said she didn't answer the phone when I called earlier to place an order as she was too busy. I guess they don't need the business in the middle of the coronavirus crisis. read more

Come here all the time when I'm craving Thai food on the a North side of Houston. The prices are reasonable, it's owned by a family and tastes authentic. Not my favorite Thai place but good for close to home. When I come here with my family we normally eat "family style". This is where we order four - five dishes and just share. You can choose type of meat for each dish and spice levels as well (1-5,5 being spiciest). Always get the green curry with chicken and the crab basil fried rice. Other dishes we get vary - chicken pad Thai is my brother favorite and the papaya salad is good too. read more

So I wrote my original review prior to experiencing The best Thai food in houston and so as a result this place definitely drops to a 3. I had the red curry recently and it just tasted so so bland and super watery. It was such a let down. The spring rolls had lemon grass or something . I would say the spring rolls around the corner are better than this place but that's just an appetizer. Husband liked his crab puffs and pad Thai. But again, nothing spectacular. I actually didn't eat my curry bc it was so blah! Too bad I can't send it back. read more

Anothai Cuisine - Thai Near Me - Spring, Texas

We have been Anothai customers for more than 10 years. We loved the FM 1960 location very much. Once we moved farther North, it was too far away from us, so we started eating and taking out from the Louetta location. We found the food at the Louetta location always slightly less tasty than the one at the FM 1960 location. However, for the last couple of years, quality and taste have seriously detoriated to the point that we threw half of our $70+ order tonight into the trashcan. We are sad that we have wasted food, and we are sad to see this place having become a shadow of its former self. read more

Anothai Cuisine - Drunken Noodles with no veggies! - Thai Near Me - Spring, Texas

We've been coming to Anothai since opening week, generally no issues and quality was great, at first. Over time we've noticed a decline in quality, but would still come back because of the consistency of the menu items we'd order and, let's face it, this area is a dead zone of quality Asian restaurants anyways. However, today was the final straw. Placed a to go order, arrived to pay (and paid a decent tip), waited a short while and left with my order. I got home 20 minutes later to find that they'd given me someone else's order! Strike 1, but let's be honest, mistakes happen and I was just looking for this to be made right. I called to politely express my slight displeasure, requested that some kind of accommodation be made (refund, credit for a future order, whatever), and was asked to bring the food back so they can give it to the right customer. Ugh, gross? Handing customers food that has been who knows where and definitely cold at this point is a no no. Strike 2. I return, was told no refund or accommodation would be made"they had to re make the order for the other customer so this food now goes to waste, here you can take this with you if you want." At this point, i really didn't press for the refund, but again, politely, expressed my displeasure over having to waste 45 minutes of my time and to only have a server/employee argue with me, only to be given a lecture over checking my order before leaving, after which I left with my food. Strike 3. Get home to feed my father, poor guy had taken his insulin 10 minutes before my first arrival home with the wrong food, was now in a beleaguered state. Upon learning of my less than stellar service experience on the return trip, then called to express his displeasure. My father is not as polite or diplomatic as I am. The lady on the phone hung up on him. I honestly could care less about a refund/accommodation, but the completely unapologetic, blame the customer attitude was much worse than any restaurant I've been to, anywhere. That includes hole in the wall, backwoods places in the Asia-Pac region. That says something... What a sad, sad situation for this restaurant, I hope things turn around for these guys, because with horrible service and declining quality, I don't see this restaurant making it to 2018. read more

anothai is so good‼ I definitely recommend the red curry You probably will have to split it with someone though because it is quite a big bowl, even if you are VERY hungry‼‼ read more

Super bland for Thai food. Came here since its not far from my house and is basically the only Thai place that close. My dad and I both ordered yellow chicken curry. The curry was so watered down it legit tasted like nothing. The quality of the chicken was pretty terrible as well. Will not be giving this place another shot. read more

The store front is unbecoming of the delicious dishes we have had. I am adding this place to my favorites and coming back! The Pad Thai was delicious, the shrimp curry was amazing and the appetizers were a delight. It seriously is one of my new favs! read more

Lunch time is perfect, not too crowded and amazing prices. Everything I have tried so far was very good.

Not the best Thai food I've ever had but good portions and value, food was tasty and fresh, and the place was clean and maintained. We got 2 different curry dishes - I should have asked for mine (yellow w chicken) to be spicier but it hit the spot for some Thai. No charge for extra rice, which was good bc a huge bowl of curry came with barely a half cup of cooked rice. Service was slow for a Saturday evening, but my group was pretty low maintenance so it didn't bother us much, but it was definitely noticeable. A decent stop for lunch or dinner, would also be a good place to pick up food to go. read more

Vegan friendly restaurants are hard to come by here outside the loop, love the green curry with tofu! Family dinners are the best here with such large dishes we can all share. Pictured also is the veggie delight with tofu where their house brown sauce is slightly sweet but savory. Also try their fried spring rolls, very crispy and comes with a side of fresh cut veggies. Unfortunately it's never packed in here but it should be! read more

This is hands down the best Thai food I've found in Houston. Almost as good as the Thai food I had while living in Hawaii (but the whole being in Hawaii thing probably is why I favor it). The pricing is very reasonable, they offer lunch portions which are cheaper than the dinner portions but the portion size is about the same. The pad Thai is hands down my favorite dish and their best dish, though I wouldn't say no to anything with shrimp and pineapple. The only thing is I wish they had some sort of rewards program. My office and I eat here at least 5 times a month. read more

Love their Pad Kee Mao! Fresh spring rolls are right on point and my family also craves the crab and java fried rice dishes. So delicious!

The spicy chicken is a must try! They consistently have served up delicious food. This is my go-to Thai place. You can't go wrong with any of their dishes. The ambiance is also nice as well. read more

Everywhere else I've tried to go in Houston for Thai just hasn't been as good as this place. The crab angel, y'all! It's amazing! Please try it. I'm a fan of the chicken satay also. I've gotten Thai tea and coffee before, both delicious. The Anothai fried rice is YUM. Best place around. read more

Food was 2.5 star. Service was 1.5 star. We had the tom kha gai soup and anothai fried rice. The food was good but not decent/fresh food. Seems to be prepared a long time ago and heated up when ordered. Soy sauce or oiled chilies was very limited and had to be asked for when you are out. They are saving money on soy sauce i guess. They did not specify that Wild curry was not " really curry", according to the server, on the menu. Why did u call it curry then? Disappointing. The service is 1.5 star so you get the point. No water refill unless u catch the server. read more

Great Thai food! All of the curry's are excellent! My favorite is the pineapple shrimp curry. The Satay is really tender and the peanut sauce is perfect! I highly recommend Anothai. read more

It's hard enough to find authentic Thai cuisine in NW Houston, and this place doesn't make it any easier. Being Cambodian (a country south of Thailand, for the geographically-challenged), I've grown up eating a lot of dishes that Cambodians and Thai share. Things like papaya salad, larp, and red curry are like comfort foods to me. I came here to catch up with a friend who enthusiastically told me she frequents this Thai restaurant. The excitement caught to me and I thought, "Can it be? An authentic Thai restaurant?" Nope....nope...it sadly, can't be. The papaya salad here didn't carry the balance of sour, spicy, and salty. It was pure fire with some lime juice squeezed onto shreds of papaya, cabbage, and carrot? Definitely not even the right ingredients used. I sadly ate it so as to not waste and hoped the panang curry would redeem the restaurant. When my curry came out, I was sad to find that it was not going to change my mind about Anothai. The beef was SO overcooked and hard that I had to chew each bite laboriously. There was entirely too much curry broth and not enough meat or vegetables.Yet again, they missed the playful balance of salty, sweet, spicy. The curry was overly sweet and I felt like shouting "Hallelujah!" every time I found a vegetable or slice of beef bob to the top. The only reason I didn't give Anothai 1 star was because the mango and sticky rice was about the only authentic thing I ate here. Then again, how can you mess up slicing fresh mango and putting it on a bed of sticky rice and coconut milk? read more

This place is horrific. I have no idea how people would even assign a rating greater than one star. The proteins are very dry. If you enjoy beef jerky in your noodles or flavor-less chicken in your fried rice, than this is the place for you. Otherwise, look the other way. I don't think there is anything redeemable about this place. The service isn't good. My waitress brought my whole table the wrong orders. The decor is as simple as 4 walls, tables and chairs. I'm sorry. I'm sure the owner is trying to get business, but the good quality is so low that at best I can compare it is to dog food. read more

The pineapple fried rice is AMAZING!!! Seriously, you MUST get it. I've also had the chicken pad Thai, but it's better the second day after you pour all of the chili sauce on it and refrigerate overnight (or maybe that's just me; I like the extra flavor/spice). My husband loves the pas see ew and won't order anything else :) A good neighborhood spot, but you'll find tastier spots in the city's ethnic neighborhoods. The only downside is the service. Don't come if you're in a hurry! It's typically 1-2 people in the front of the house, and usually one is tied up with all of the takeout orders. They're nice, just not speedy. read more

Pros: The food is decent. There are plenty of great Thai food joints in Houston. But, for Willowbrook area, this place would get 4 stars. I had their Seafood Paradise, where as my friends had the Yellow and Red Curry. All seemed to think that the food was good, nothing extraordinary. Cons: The service is terrible. It takes forever to get the order in, to get the order on the table, but surprisingly it took forever for the checks to come back. I went from work, during my lunch break and I literally spent 15 minutes waiting for the check. Note: If you are on a tight schedule, definitely not the place to go to. read more
