Overall, this was a 50/50 experience. When I walked in, I noticed a decent number of potential diners, but no one was around for seating. I ended up just following the crowd and picking my own table. It looked like there was only one server. The place isn't big at all, so I'm not sure how things got overlooked, but anyway let's get to the food. I will say this everything came out fresh and really hot, but the dishes seriously lacked flavor. Keep in mind, I've spent two weeks in Thailand and tried every mainland dish that's referred, , so I know what a good curry tastes like and this, my friends, was not it. The curry was extremely watery and had almost no flavor. You don't even taste curry at all. The roti appetizer honestly needs to be taken off the menu. It's not even worth mentioning, but here we are. Tough, no flavor basically like construction paper dipped in dyed water. The wings were fried perfectly, I'll give them that, but there was no seasoning. They were lightly coated in sauce, and even then nothing made them memorable. My entree was the Chicken Curry Noodle, and this dish was just... weird. I know it's prepared a little differently in Phuket, but personally, I think the cabbage and fried noodles completely ruined it. Even if the cabbage was meant to complement the dish, it still felt unnecessary. The curry itself was basically watered-down paste. I don't understand how something can be known for curry when you can't even taste curry. Also, that bowl it's served in please get rid of it. It makes the dish harder to enjoy. A simple medium bowl would've been perfect. Eating watered-down curry out of what feels like a genie lamp isn't my (or anyone's) idea of good dining. Definitely last on my list.

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews. We have a lot of Thai expats and work and they frequent here. We went one day and it was jam packed but we had a nice booth. We were seated quickly and they took out order shortly after. This is a nice, clean place, maybe a tad on the fusion side but the food looks solid. Portions vary from small to normal. The thing I liked was that they have Khao Soi which is a less common Northern Thai dish. It was really delicious and hit the spot. I did not get a chance to try Thai Tea or mango sticky rice. Next time. I usually get Pad See Ewe, Pad Thai, or Pad Kee Mao at Thai restaurants. Will have to try here and compare. Will be back. read more

Charm Thai Bistro - Khao Soi was delicious - Thai Near Me - Spring, Texas

Thai iced tea was great. Thai iced coffee reminded me of viet coffee. Strong and sweetened with condensed milk. Red, massaman and panang curry Noodles were smooth. Great flavor. Satay pork and chicken - amazing Wonton chicken and crab cream cheese Roti curry - eh. Watered down curry and not flaky roti. Papaya salad with crab - got mild and it was spicy! Fried banana was a tad too coated or not enough banana in the middle. Thai tea creme Brulee - very interesting play on creme Brulee Mango sticky rice - can't go wrong with this dish Thai beef jerky - surprisingly very good read more

Charm Thai Bistro absolutely lived up to its name pure charm from start to finish. The Tom Yum soup came out piping hot in a traditional pot, rich in flavor with just the right amount of spice and tang. The vegetables were fresh, vibrant, and perfectly cooked, paired beautifully with the jasmine rice and crispy wonton. Everything tasted authentic and full of depth no shortcuts here. Service was fast, friendly, and on point. If you're craving real Thai comfort food in a clean, inviting setting, this place delivers. read more

This place was pretty good. My son and I were looking for a thai place close to him and this is where we ended up. We got the crab puffs and chicken wontons to start with. They were ok. My son and I both ordered curry and the curry was good. We both enjoyed it. What I loved about it was the dishes that they served them in. They were so pretty and elegant looking. My son's girlfriend ordered a veggie stir fry and hers was really good too! We all got Thai iced tea and loved that as well. Service was good and friendly. Food came out fast. read more

One of the best Thai places in the area! I've been here plenty of times and can confidently say this restaurant is nothing short of amazing. My love for it all started with a DoorDash order - the food was so good, I just had to track down the actual restaurant! The. Food. Always. SLAPS. All of the items I've ordered are flavor-packed and memorable. My absolute favorites that I order every visit? The Green Curry and Tom Yum Soup. Some close runner ups have to be the Chicken satay, Basil Beef, Pad Kee Mao, and Mango Sticky Rice. Part of what elevates the dining experience is the option to customize your dish. There are a whopping 10 different proteins options, ranging from vegan options to scallops, there's surely something here for everyone. As typical of any Thai restaurant, I'd advise to be cautious of the spice-levels. I prefer my food SPICY and find that the spicy level (3 out of 4) is perfect. The service here is as impeccable as the food. The staff genuinely care about their customers, and it shows. I mentioned that I had a long day at work and the kindness they showed made a lasting impact. Every single server is attentive and friendly. Not to mention, the food comes out quickly and has always been consistent. The staff runs the restaurant like a well-oiled machine - truly seamless. To top it all off, the ambiance is warm, cozy and inviting. The restaurant is in a prime location. During the day, the windows allow for a bright, well-lit interior. And the restaurant has a certain charm to it (hence the name) - making it feel homey, like you should wind down and stay a while. This place continues to make a lasting impact on me. I'm always looking for an excuse to stop by or bring my friends/family. If you're craving Thai food in the area, you definitely need to check it out. read more

Delicious!!! Every time I'm in Houston with my Houston team, We come here. I love the food! This trip I had the Thai stir fry! OMG so yummy. I got the lunch portion and wish I got the regular portion. So good. I also had the spring rolls. Very delicious, well seasoned and they taste even better in the dipping sauce provided. The place at lunch is usually super packed. Highly HIGHLY recommend! read more

Service was great food was on point pork belly nice and crispy spice level was perfect definitely being going back

Horrible service & RACIST. Stay far away if you are black woman trying to dine alone. I was just told by a gentleman to basically get up and move after one gentleman told me to go and sit anywhere. Tai then came to my table and told me I need to get up that I was a table for 6. Which I was not I was a 2 top next to 4 top table. There were many other tables in the restaurant to place large parties. Tay just wanted to be rude, racist and very nasty. Daniel who was supposedly the "manager" did nothing to try to rectify the situation. I have eaten at this establishment before many time. Now I will make it a point to let others knows the racism I just experienced Also when I mentioned it do Daniel he acted as if he didn't care. The picture below shows the amount of tables that were available for LARGE PARTIES read more

If you can, avoid ordering to-go I placed an order for pick up, when i arrived to the restaurant the staff didnt care to ask if i needed something or what was i doing there, i talked to the waiter asking for my order and he checked a to-go bag that was placed on the counter top and left without saying a word, i was waiting for a while until i decided to ask a different waiter about my food, i ordered pad thai and pineapple fried rice, the noodles in the pad thai were undercooked and had a sour flavor, and also was missing the extra sauce and lime that i paid for, i couldnt even eat half of it, the fried rice was way too spicy for the selected option not spicy. read more

The food here is amazing! We went there on Sunday then ordered food delivered on Wednesday. Both times it was outstanding. I cannot recommend this place enough. read more

Ordered through business phone number. My husband and I used loved this place. Unfortunately, after receiving our order, our go-to entrees have lost their "Charm". Usually get the Garlic and Pepper with a choice of protein...The chicken was bland/dry and turned to mush with the broth. It tasted as if it was pre-cooked shredded chicken.. after just a few bites, it made my stomach so upset, I couldn't take another bite. Very disappointing... read more

Quick update after several orders from Charm: Pad Thai, Tom Yum, and Tom Kha all consistently amazing. Will stick with these. Pad See Ew with Pork First off, the pork was dry. Second, the flavor of the pad see ew was not what I was used to and not something I enjoyed. I couldn't finish this. Pad Khe Mao with Chicken First off, chicken was dry and not cut against the grain. Second, the sauce was a bit too sweet and the flavor was not what I used to. Better than the pad see ew but far inferior to the pad thai. If I just consider the pad thai, tom yum, and tom kha, rating is a 5*. read more

This place is yummy! The staff was knowledgeable. I'm not a fan of the Upchurch for making it vegan and at least they had vegan options. The food was good. The vibe was cool. It's a good option in the area for vegan food! read more

Shawn was an absolutely fantastic server, and Charm truly has some of the best food around!

The food was great, very tasty, serving size is adequate. Service is good and quick. Service crew is very friendly and attentive. Just need to be careful when they asked you about the degree if spicyness, medium spice level is already very spicy to regular people but the food is really good. read more

This is a Thai staple by my office. The service Is friendly but the food took a long time to get. The ambiance is quaint and great for a lunch. The pad kee mao had great flavor but the noodles were a bit al dente for my taste. Could have been softer. Plenty of free parking. read more

I love pork belly. If you read any of my reviews, you will see pork belly over and over again. If it's on the menu, I'm going to have it. So it was for that reason I was excited to see my favorite protein and as an optional topping for pad see ewe. Crispy pork belly, costs extra but hey, it's crispy pork belly. Except it wasn't. Wasn't crispy. Wasn't butchered well. Instead I got a huge piece of decidedly uncrispy, cold 100% fat. There were other remnants in the pad see ewe of pork belly but without sear, definitely not crispy. When I expressed my concern to the server, I was rewarded with a blank stare and not an offer to take it back and recook, replace the protein or adjust the bill. No attempt to right the situation. I'm hoping this was an off day but I am in no hurry to return. read more

About a week ago I invited grams for a second visit here and took along my hubby and son for lunch. Grams and I ordered the same items we had the last time, catfish sauted with veggies, chicken friend rice, noodles and added the chicken yellow curry, while hubby and son ordered the crab fried rice. I honestly love the crab fried rice. It was delicious and they didn't even skimp the crabs. It had a hefty amount. They also enjoyed the spicy sauteed catfish We shall visit again, perhaps dinner next time. read more

I came in for lunch and was absolutely blown away. The food was authentic and delicious, specifically the Thai green curry was perfect. Additionally, my server, Daniel, was very personable and only enhanced the meal with his personal recommendations. I will definitely be coming here again! read more

Had held off going to Charm due to the mixed reviews. Not sure what the deal is with the numerous complaints of poor/rude service, but we experienced nothing of the sort. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and efficient. Food was very good, though on the milder side for us. We realized after the food arrived that they never asked us what level of spice we wanted - which would have been "thai medium". Anyways, some chili oil solved the problem. Not only was the food tasty, but the quality was good as well. Cannot wait to have the leftovers! Will certainly be back for mo! read more

I passed this place for so long, not trusting new Thai restaurants even though it's my favorite type of food. I was taken a back by the coconut curry soup I had, I went with the safe option pad thai and honestly was satisfied with flavor and the amount of protein I got in the dish. The servers were attentive and the atmosphere was clean but still so colorful from the dishes to the decor. I'll be showing all my friends this place read more

This place is still one of my favorites! Customer service is always amazing! Food is always made fresh to order! I'm still in love with the ambiance of this restaurant since day one! Very relaxed! Very clean! It's also good for groups! Don't forget lunch time they have great specials! A beautiful wine bar! The art is gorgeous along the wall. It tells a story! But the food and the flavors are just everything! This restaurant is in a shared parking lot but parking is great! Will I return? Always lol. Just picked up my to go order, I wish I could of got it in a large to go bowl but it's ok. Food is fresh! read more

Service is absolutely terrible. Walked in the restaurant at 2pm on a Monday. Took 5 minutes to be greeted by the hostess after staring at 3 employees behind the bar. Hostess walks up and says we close in 20-25 minutes which was incorrect. The door clearly states 3pm as well as the hours posted online. I asked the hostess that I was under the impression that they closed at 3pm which I would have an hour to order and leave. She said that I was wrong very rudely. Do yourself a favor and go to Tic Tac Thai where they know how to treat a customer! This is only 5 minutes away on 2920. read more

Food 10/10 ngl. Service is pretty good to be honest I don't have any complains on it. The whole vibe of the place is very relaxing and I would recommend for business meeting. Not too good for kids read more

I order pad see ew it was kinda dry and had regular broccoli with a tiny amount of Chinaes greens. It didn't taste bad but it just wasn't right. The Thai coffee was great! read more

This was the most terrible experience I've ever had in my life. It does not deserve any stars, because the service was horrible. And I will never go back!! Looks like the people who work there do not want to work. First, there was no one to greet us when we arrived. When we were finally seated, an Asian lady approached and asked what we wanted to drink. I inquired about the available juices, and she looked at me and said they are in the menu. I asked again, and she repeated that it was in the menu and told me to look there. Later, she brought our drinks and just placed all three at the end of the table without a word. Later, a man came to take our order but didn't bother to explain anything, even when we had questions about the different spice levels. When the food arrived, the same Asian lady announced the name of the soup and placed it in front of me. I told her it wasn't mine but hers, and she responded, "You can give it to her," then walked away. The rest of the food arrived cold. I asked for an extra plate, and she responded with confusion. I had to repeat myself three times before my husband finally said, "Can I have an extra plate?" She then brought it and threw it in front of me. When the food finally arrived, no one came to check if everything was okay. After about 15-20 minutes, a the guy came to ask how everything was. Even the sprite tasted bad. it had no bubbles and looked like it had been watered down. My husband had to request the check, and we had to wait a long time for them to take the cc to charge. This was the worst service I have ever experienced--absolutely horrible!!! read more

It's just okay. Mid priced Chinese. The orange peel chicken didn't taste like orange peel can't describe it it was weird. Egg rolls - hot crispy delicious Vegetable curry was just okay too wasn't piping hot or anything, just blah it was food. I probably won't try this place again because there are a GA-Zillion Chinese or Korean or Thai restaurants around. The rice and egg rolls were the best thing. The service was mediocre also. No big wows here. read more

When you walk in the place looks like a high end Asian restaurant. The prices do not reflect that though which is good. The food was good.

This is, by far, a restaurant that deserves every single star. My friend and I went on a Sunday night before closing and we were helped by Raven (and another server, but didn't get his name). Customer service was a lowkey art form here, never any hesitation with (spot on) suggestions and impeccably quick service. Drinks: - the Mule was fantastic, it was easy and gave me a tropical vibe for the middle of the winter - the pineapple and pomegranate martini was deadly good, another tropical vibe that just worked so well - I asked for a recommendation and got a secret drink...all I'll say is the base is Thai tea and honestly need not say more Food: - soft rolls (spring / summer-type rolls) had fresh veggies and a delicious take on peanut sauce (they add a bit of chili paste) - Massaman Curry...curries are my go-to and this does not disappoint (if you like white people spicy, go for the mild, otherwise go higher) - pad Thai...I got this to go because I wanted a meal for the next day, it was absolutely phenomenal...again white people spicy should go for mild - friend got fried rice (I can't comment on it because I have celiac and couldn't eat it), but they said nothing but positives - mango sticky rice... yum, maybe a little more rice, but delicious All of the dishes came on dishes or plates that were brought here from Thailand and it add a simple authentic feel to the whole meal. read more

My only issue is the service time to greet and receive the check. Otherwise, this place is pretty much solid. Bruhhhh, the Tom Kha is life. The coconut, tofu, shrimp, lemon grass. I loved it. Only minor thing it was a bit heavy handed on salt, but it happens, I'm not mad. Spicy edamame wasn't the spicy I was looking for. I was looking for more, maybe add a little chili oil? And the crispy calamari, chillleeeeee she crispy for sure. The experience and aesthetics were dope. Hopefully next time I can give them a full 5. read more

Amazing food and enjoyable atmosphere. Great to have good Thai food in The Woodlands.

I couldn't believe this restaurant reviews good reviews. The green curry w/ chicken was horrific. I am a foodie, have eaten Asian food everywhere all over the world. I came to this restaurant w/ another Asian friend as well. The brown rice, extra of course, was dry and the entree seemed left over from the next day. Terrible. Never go back. read more

Great food. A slight fusion ... without would've been better. Setting is loud especially during lunch. Service needs attention to detail.
