    We stopped there on our road trip and everything tasted good. I liked the crab ragoons best.

    Poor service, food wasn't what I ordered but they wouldn't fix that. Overpriced & poor quality sealed the deal, I wont be back.

    Sat for 5 minutes with NO service. The woman finally served someone that came in after us before she came to us. We just left.

    You can't go wrong with Thai House! My husband and I live just north of Houston but we visit…read moreEureka Springs several times a year, and we go to Thai House EVERY SINGLE TIME. Food and service here are excellent. It is a bit crowded, but guess what? The place is popular. I would be more concerned if it were empty all the time.

    Stopped by here to grab a bite to go. The most impressive…read morepart was how nice the people were who worked there. Every interaction was wonderful. They even asked if we needed plates. This was great since we are staying in a hotel! This is a really cute spot in Eureka Springs. Not too far outside of downtown. There is parking but not a bunch so it stayed pretty full. We decided to share. We got a dinner salad, summer rolls (not fried here) with shrimp, and the avocado curry with chicken. They do have fried rolls but they call them spring rolls here. I'm used to spring rolls being the rice paper and not fried. They have both. The spring rolls were very good. The peanut sauce is a bit sweet for me but still good. You get 4! The dinner salad was plenty for both of us. I'm not sure what the dressing is that came with it but it was way too sweet for us. I don't think it was a Ginger dressing which I thought would be their house. We would have preferred another dressing but otherwise enjoyed the salad. The avocado curry with chicken was very good. I never know what spice level to get. Some places are too mild and others are hotter even at low levels. My partner doesn't like a lot of spice. I couldn't decide if I should go with mild at 1 (on a scale of 1-5) or go with 2 because I do like some spice (but not so much I can't taste the food). The really nice woman up front said, we can do 1.5 so I said, yes! Well, I guess I am in Arkansas... ha ha. I will definitely ask for 3 when I'm back again. I couldn't taste any heat. Otherwise, the avocado curry was very good. Unique for me. I had not had avocado curry before. Had a bunch of large pieces of avocado! We would definitely go back to Thai House when visiting again. It's one of the only Asian restaurants I have seen in town.

    We ordered takeout from here on a Wednesday night. I grew up in rural Missouri and I'm used to most…read moreplaces taming down spice for the more vanilla/less adventurous types. Knowing this, I was a little leery that Thai here in Branson might be kind of blah. Thai Thai had good reviews, so I decided to go with it. My wife got her usual pad Thai and I got the drunken noodles with tofu--specifically because they were described as being spicy. We also got an order of the fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce. I put in my order comments to make the noodles "Thai spicy--I mean it"... they did not disappoint! Everything was delicious. The spring rolls were fresh and larger than what I'm used to getting elsewhere. The peanut sauce was just right. More importantly, my noodles were actually spicy. Not tamed down Midwest spicy, or just kind of spicy. And honestly, as someone who frequents Thai places, they're some of the best I've had! They have plenty of vegetarian options here for those of you looking for something edible in Branson. I would definitely order from here again.

    Extremely disappointing experience at Tai Kitchen. We arrived at 2:35 PM, well before their posted…read more3:00 PM closing time, and were told they were "closed." Meanwhile, they had literally just seated other customers moments before us. Every sign on the door and online indicated they close at 3:00 PM, so refusing service 25 minutes early made absolutely no sense. If the kitchen stops taking customers before closing, that needs to be clearly posted. Otherwise, customers should reasonably expect to be served during advertised business hours. The inconsistency and poor customer service were frustrating, especially after making the effort to come in before closing. Definitely not a welcoming experience.

It was a great blend of crunch bc of the breading and creamy avocado with seafood blend. Rolls: Firecracker, crispy Mickey and volcano. We opted for all deep fried as I'm pregnant and have to avoid raw meat and fish. They were so. GOOD. The firecracker was my favorite bc the shrimp tempura. We also had complimentary miso soup and it was tasty, too. Service was quick and friendly considering the crowd for the day. We'll definitely be back when in the area.

    We were there for yard yards and yards and yards sale last weekend and we're so pooped after…read morebargain hunting all day that we decided to pop into Mei's for dinner. The place is clean and quite in a converted house and the staff were nice and friendly. I made the mistake of ordering a sushi roll that I did not notice was deep-fried. To me that just makes it fish and chips and that's not what I was looking for. Totally my fault for ordering it without paying attention and asking for it to be served fresh but the flavor was definitely off, very fishy, so I'm not sure that I wanted it raw either. I will say that the child's portion of orange chicken was very good and the egg roll was pretty delicious, but my friend could not eat her dinner because it was so salty. It's OK, it's just definitely not five stars

    4/22/26 This family…read moreowned business was highly recommended by a local friend and I had promised to check this place out the next time I was in town. Well Yelpers, I've found my new fave Northwest Arkansas restaurant! TBH, I wasn't sure what to expect when I arrived. It looked like a modernized restaurant with an open kitchen. I opened the door to the restaurant and waited to check in and a handsome young boy asked if I had reservations and I advised I didn't and he asked if I wanted to sit indoor or outdoor. He grabbed a menu and helped me to my table. I was quickly greeted by a staff member and given a glass of water and was told that there isn't an assigned server but that multiple staff members will work together to attend my table. After eating American and Italian food all week on my business travels, I was craving some authentic simple home cooked food and this location brought me virtually home for dinner. For those of you that know me or have been following my review journey, have gotten to know my household ethnicities. When I saw the House 1830 Menu, it was a delightful mix of Vietnamese and Laotian food! The color purple was present from accent walls by the kitchen to my cloth napkin on the plate sets, to the "seasonal" menu font color all tie together with staff uniforms including the outdoor purple umbrella above the outdoor seating space. They even have custom pillows on the bench seating with the House 1830 logos. Susana, one of the owners came to greet me and asked if I've been here before or if it's my first time. She shared that her husband Binh was the head chef today and many patrons typically think it's a fusion restaurant but it's really a family inspired menu that keeps the food as authentic as possible. Binh is Vietnamese and their sister in law Bé is Laotian. I didn't have the pleasure of meeting Bé as she was celebrating her birthday elsewhere as she should. Susana shared that her contribution is the inspired cocktail menu...which had so many yummy options that you don't see anywhere else. They had a Lychee Martini on the menu but I see it often everywhere so I ordered the Longan Martini to try and it was delish! I started with my roots and ordered a Vietnamese House Sampler described as a sampling of the crowd favorite starters. Cha Gio | Mini Banh Xeo | Bo Xien Tam for $21. The eggrolls were crispy and had the right amount of filling well seasoned, the Bite-size Banh Xeo shrimp crepes was light and the flash fried marinated beef skewers were seasoned to perfection with a family marinade. Lettuce, cilantro, mint along with the various nuoc cham (dipping sauces) were great! I didn't want to fill up as I wanted one of my favorite Lao dishes Nam Khao - Crispy red curry seasoned rice combined with small chunks of cured pork, and spices. It comes with lettuce, mint, cilantro where you can eat it like a lettuce wrap or eat it as is like fried rice for $18. This light entree for me hit the spot. The staff was exceptional, occasionally stopping g by to check if my water was ok or if I needed anything. I went to check out the bathroom to wash my hands and thought the wall murals were trendy and happy to see the restrooms were clean. I stopped at the open kitchen and complimented the chef and his staff on my delicious meal. They were very cheery and thankful for the compliment. Went back to my table and contemplated another cocktail or dessert but I was really beyond stuffed and figured I'll be back and to save options for my next visit. Chef Binh stopped by my table and we started talking about a little of everything. The restaurant concept, the seasonally inspired menu and to keep things fun for regular diners, shhhh....you didn't hear it from me...but there's even a secret menu that changes often! You'll have to ask or sign up to get the details! You don't get many seasonal menu options from Asian restaurants so I love that they have a seasonal menu and a secret one that only the special members know about! Come check out House 1830! You will not be disappointed yes, I'll be back to visit Binh, Susana and team! Thanks for the hospitality! Thank you, Zerric for the best recommendation! Xoxo

    3.75 stars We went to House 1830 mostly because of Yelp. I…read moredidn't really glean the atmosphere from the Yelp reviews, so we were expecting a bit quieter, cushier setting than it is. Concrete floors, industrial ceiling, metal chairs and tables and an open kitchen. It's very nice, but it just wasn't what I expected. They have team service, and I like the idea of it. But in practice, it was initially bumpy and overwhelming. We got asked for our drink order like 3 times, by 3 different people in less than 5 minutes. The service itself was preventing me from being able to read the menu! There are some unique cocktails, so I actually needed to focus and read about them. Our food was really, really good. We ordered a couple appetizers (wish they had fresh spring rolls in addition to the fried ones), and my husband had the Crying Tiger Steak, which was mouthwatering (though pretty fatty/gristly -- could've used a tad more butchering). Both the appetizers and my husband's steak came with specific instructions from the server of how to eat it properly: first put this on it, then add this, etc. It's not my favorite when chefs tell me HOW to eat their food. Can I just eat it? And figure it out for myself, how I like it? We aren't from Arkansas, and from what I can see, House 1830 is not a typical local restaurant, which is great. The chef was out of the country when we were there (at a food competition?), so not sure how that factored in to our visit. I'd recommend going there -- just wanted to clarify some things from other reviewers.
