Boca Raton can be... polite. Safe. Predictable. A place where flavor sometimes shows up wearing loafers. And then there's Chow Thai Cuisine, which kicks the door in and reminds you that spice is not a suggestion -- it's a lifestyle. Let's begin with the Tom Kha Gai. This soup isn't comfort. It's therapy with a PhD. Coconut milk silky enough to calm your nervous system. Galangal and lemongrass punching through like they have something to prove. Lime snapping you back to attention. It's hot, bright, layered -- the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-sentence and just nod. Fire. Absolute fire. Then came the Spicy Virgin Chicken -- and whoever named it that undersold it. This thing was off the chain. Bold heat. Real heat. Not Florida "mild but we call it spicy." The kind of balanced burn that builds instead of bludgeons. Flavor first. Heat second. Respect maintained. You can tell when a kitchen knows what it's doing. This one does. And here's the real test -- the only test that matters: Would we come back? Not "maybe." Not "if we're in the area." Not "with a coupon." Yes. Without hesitation. The Thai tea deserves its own paragraph. Creamy, sweet, but with this subtle floral undertone that sneaks in at the end like a quiet encore. It doesn't scream. It lingers. It knows exactly what it's doing. Now the tragedy. I didn't order the spring rolls. Why? Because I ran out of stomach. Which is both a failure and a victory -- because now I have a reason to return. And I will. The decor? Unexpectedly transportive. You walk in and it feels like you left Boca for a minute. Warm lighting, layered textures, a quiet otherworldly vibe. Not cheesy. Not forced. Just enough to shift your mood. Some restaurants serve food. Chow Thai serves intention.

Cute serving of rice. The lady that has helped us both times is super nice.

We tried Chow Thai for lunch. At the time of this review it is rated a 4.5. I would say it is under rated. I think it's the best Thai I have had in the area. Great portions, great, flavors, great service. It's a bit of a drive for me -- 30+ minutes but that won't stop me from returning. Chicken Pad Thai, Basil Chicken, Wonton Soup. Well done!

Spring Rolls.

So good! Family owned Thai restaurant where they treat you like you are their family. Don't be thrown that it's in a strip mall. The food is authentic, the portions are large! Honestly, share because you can't finish what they give you. The staff is very knowledgeable. I think they have the menu and every ingredient memorized. The Shrimp Pad Thai had huge shrimp infact 5 or 6, which you never get anywhere. The curry was perfectly balanced and not too spicy. The chicken fried rice hit the spot as well. We truly did not need dessert but went for it anyway. The place is super cute down to the hut cash register. This hidden gem is the place to go and the prices are pre-Covid!!!

My son suggested we come here for dinner and it was really good. Hes a vegetarian and there are many options for him. I had the chicken pad Thai and enjoyed it immensely. The smell was spectacular and the ambiance was lovely. Our server was adorable and she was very attentive. I expect to have 2 more meals from my leftovers.

We ordered takeout from them the other day and it was a much better experience. It was ready in a half hour and ready when they said it would be. This time I added the sampler to my order as well as pad Thai and both were delicious. No complaints.

Never again. This place is nasty. I watch the person handling food ( who was definitely the owner),…read morebiting his nails and then touching food without washing his hands. He was also absolutely awful and disrespectful to his employees in front of customers. Service was also not good, I came in to pick up food that I had ordered ahead and still had to wait 20 min after getting there. I immediately baked everything I ordered the second I got home to kill any nasty troll germs. Food was meh.

Well, I wish I had a better review. (I know they are related to the Mario's in Lake Worth)…read more Unfortunately, I came here on a night with a large group and it was a fiasco. We had a reservation but when we all came in they didn't have it. (even thought it had been confirmed at 5 pm that day. So we all moved outside (which in the end was better for socializing), but getting the food out to 3 large tables was very difficult. One table got their food first; the other two waited. And then another table got theirs, and the first table was finished. And so on... They did take 25% off each person's bill. Unfortunately, my Greek Salad with shrimp was not good - it also had no olives or peppecini and the shrimp was not done. When I did say something they didn't do anything about it. That is really why I am not giving it a good review. I understand they are new so I know they have a lot of kinks to work out. I don't live in West Boca so I don't know when I would frequent it again - I do see from the other reviews that others have had very good experiences.
