We like this place. The food is really good and one of the better Asian restaurants in the area. I usually get the teriyaki chicken and my wife gets the Chinese vegetables with chicken. read more

Extremely welcoming servers that informed us on our first time. During lunch they have a buffet type serving but can still order from the menu. Not pictured is our take home drunken noodle with beef. It has the best spice of all dishes and the beef is extremely tender. Will be back to try so much more. read more

Chow Thai - Drunken noodle - Thai Near Me - Wilmington, North Carolina

7 hours agoNEW It was ok. Ordered the shrimp pad Thai. Not much flavor. Decent amount of shrimp. (I counted about 6 or 7 pieces) I had a lot left over and it tasted better the next day. Maybe the noodles needed time to absorb the seasonings and sauce but it still wasn't the best I've ever had. But also not the worst. Clean place, fast friendly service. Tip: don't use the online order form if ordering take out. It said it would be 45-50 min for my food to be ready. I was close by so instead of ordering online I just stopped in. The restaurant was empty. My food was ready in 10 minutes. read more

We tried several different dishes and everything was good. Be prepared to wait a few minutes, I think they do a lot of take aways. We've already gone back. read more

The food was pretty good. I ordered the drunken noodles with level 7 spicy. As an Asian person, level 7 spicy is not too spice but still got a little kick. Noodles itself cooked in a good level of chewiness which I enjoy very much. I would suggest to have the option to have some fried grounded garlic on the top as garnishing. Regarding the chicken, it could marinated and add a little batter before stir fry it. Overall service and environment of the restaurant here is splendid and I enjoy my time eating in the location. read more

Always fresh, always delicious, great staff and reasonable prices. I love the thai spice roll, the paradise chicken and the coconut cake!

Loved the basil fried rice ! We just discovered this place and it's a gem. You order at the counter and it's a very casual space but they also surprisingly checked on us frequently as we ate in. Everyone was so kind and the food was delicious. Great prices, huge servings (we ate at dinner time). Will definitely be back next time I'm in town. I can see my Wilmington family ordering to-go there frequently. read more

Delicious. Good quality Thai. Kids meal option for the kids is much appreciated. Yummy.

Delicious & tasty food. Recommended items at ChowThai is Basil fried rice & Crazy noodles read more

The food and service are great! The Yellow Curry is my go to and never disappoints. Hands down the best Thai food in Wilmington.

Holy mother of yummy drunken noodles! Wow! I work PT a few doors down, and decided for lunch to give them a try! I am used to the Thai House back home, and they have always been impossible to beat until TODAY! I love I can order online and tell them on there no eggs without it being an issue! The spice I did was 3x and it hit today perfectly! I love wide rice noodles and the veggies and chicken where all on point! Stop by and try this hidden gem out! The lunch portion will be enough for 2/3 meals for me! Yummy yummy...gotta go get these noodles in the tummy' read more

Our go to take out. It's all good. The basil fried rice is amazing. Sushi is great bc

I love this place, love the food, love the service. My friend and I come here at least once a week. I've tried most of their food and everything has always been so tasty and fresh. Last night I had green curry...omg yummy. I cant totally go for more right now. I have a gluten intolerance and they have tons of options or willing to make something special for you. Just an awesome place to eat. read more

Best Sushi and Thai in town! Staff is wonderful and the food is delicious and consistent!

Delicious food and great service. Both the soup and entree I got were generous portions with fresh vegetables, tons of tofu, and great flavor. Appreciate that my server explained the spiciness to me as the dish I had selected wasn't marked as spicy but apparently had a sauce that made it have a little more kick than mild. The ambiance isn't much (reminded me of a cafeteria with the really basic flatware and vinyl tablecloth) but the food was amazing! read more

I order to go from this place for beef Pad Thai. Their menus is different they seam to focus more on sushi. Anyway my pad Thai it was okay it was not my best one. I think the sauce is different taste to me. read more

THE BEST. My wife and I drive across town to eat here at least once a week. Consistently delicious and visually beautiful food that makes you say mmmmmm, friendly service, fair prices, no surprises (except for good ones-- like how amazing every single dish tastes every time. HOW do they do it??). If you've never been, start with Drunken Noodles. They'll knock your socks off. Then, work your way through the menu. Get some sake if you're in the mood for a drink. End your experience with some warm Mango Sticky Rice. Leave with a happy belly and a full heart. read more

Sushi is so good! Lots of fun speciality tools! Also a fan of basil noodles! Staff is always friendly

WOW this place is delicious! I was kind of shocked because I wasn't having great luck with finding asian restaurants in this area. The inside is decorative with elephants everywhere. It was super authentic. The waiter was also very kind and helpful. The Siam sweet and sour was great if you wanted the chicken with veggies. It filled me up quick! I never had anything like this dish before. Their sushi rolls unfortunately aren't buy one get one free or half off. I got the spider roll and that was pretty impressive as well. It looked nice and big. It was also crunchy and had a lot of great flavor. I'm usually not a fan of sushi but this one was really good. There is a variety of dishes here and they all have their own spice level ranging from 0-10. If you get a medium that would be about a 3. Those who like spicy would probably taste nothing from that. Some of my friends got 6s and 8s and were sweating like crazy! For those who don't like spicy I'd recommend to stick with a 1 or a 2. read more

They have amazing food at such a good price. We went here for lunch and my whole family had a great experience. They have a wide variety and I would highly recommend. Their customer service is excellent. We ate the honey tuna poke bowl and drunken noodles and they were both delicious and reasonably priced. Their lunch specials had a great variety as well! read more

Our food was excellent and the staff was very accommodating and pleasant. An all around pleasant dining experience.

I don't remember who recommended this place to me but THANK YOU!! This place is a hidden gem in Monkey Junction. I decided to stop in for lunch and it was pretty empty. It was right before they closed but the waitress insisted that I could still eat which I appreciated. I ordered the spring rolls (vegetarian) and drunken noodles with chicken. The waitress told me that during lunch there is a complimentary soup and today it was egg drop so I definitely asked for some :). The service was quick. She brought the soup out first, followed by the spring rolls and drunken noodles. The soup was very flavorful and included fresh cilantro. It was light and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The spring rolls were amazing!! The wrapper was very light and crunchy. Honestly, the best spring rolls I've had. And the drunken noodles were sooo good. You can get it spicy on a range from 0-10 and I opted for 3, which is a mild spice. You can also get the spice on the side. It was topped with onions, peppers, and tomatoes. I would definitely order again. I also liked that their prices were affordable. The average lunch price was $8 which is a steal since it also includes soup. If you're in the area, you won't regret checking this place out. They will also start delivering in mid February. read more

One of the better, hidden gem style of restaurants in Wilmington. Food is well made and always seems fresh. It's good for people that like any kind of Thai food and food from other Asian demographics as well. These places aren't easy to find in Wilmington. I like to try different noodle dishes and they have a good selection of them as well as a good selection of all sorts of food. Take their heat warnings seriously though haha...I love spicy food, but when they say it's spicy they are not joking!! If you're no confident about how much heat u can take, play it safe the first time, then gradually work your way up. Great restaurant though!! read more

Friendly and welcoming staff. The service was quick and the staff helpful and knowledgeable! We went for lunch and they have a reasonably priced lunch menu with many options. I had the Vegetable Medley with chicken that can be ordered with or without breading which I like. Husband had the Sweet and Sour stir fry. The food came out hot and delicious. The restaurant is clean but not fancy. read more

Our family from Thai Thailand and love Chow Thai food! The food is great with the best price

It was my first visit to Chow Thai since they changed the name and interior of the restaurant (not sure about the ownership)... While I appreciated that there are many To Go Orders, dining inside was not as 'an experience' as it once was previously. The restaurant is very clean and the customer service is top notch, I just missed the experience of a 'typical dining experience.' I ordered the Spring Rolls (vegetable) and the Tom Yum Soup with the addition of Chicken. They ask if you would like the soup spicy or not...I chose a little ('middle of the road') spice....I love spicy, it just doesn't always 'like me' back! :/ The Spring Rolls were very tasty and just the right amount of crunch and not too oily...my only complaint is that I would've liked to have a couple more! :) I would rate them 4.6 stars ! The Tom Yum soup was very different than what I was used to having (mostly at the Southern Thai Restaurant); but it was very good. The broth was very flavorful with just enough (but not too much) spice. The main difference, though, was the broth. I am used to a lemongrass/Chicken broth, with Thai Basil, and a -removable- Thai chili (I learned the hard way to ask for the chili on the side!! :/)!! This 'sort of' spicy soup; however, has a tomato inspired broth and has the addition of tomatoes and mushrooms. It is very tasty, just VERY different from what I am used to/was expecting. Rating: 4.2 stars That said, I ate a good amount of it, but had to pack up the rest, as I guess I ate too many spring rolls :). They did have amazing take out containers for those who choose to order take out...no spillage from THAT container!! I would like to say that their customer service, and, service in general, is very good- 4.6 stars So, I suppose the overall rating was 4.4 stars as I was just disappointed about the dining experience in general (being waited on, instead of a 'to go' scenario) and the difference in soup, which neither is really a 'fault'- perhaps if I had known what to expect it would have been closer to a perfect review. I do highly recommend this establishment and look forward to trying some of the other items on the menu. I will return to try more items on the menu, and to try the Sushi!! Thanks CT!! read more

Finally, FINALY we have found a great Asian (Thai) restaurant in Wilmington NC. Veggies actually not cooked to mush brown and, as astonishingly as it might seem, FLAVOR across the board. Wonderful. What is more a staff that has a pulse. Wow, even efficient delivery via Door Dash. We couldn't be happier. read more

The prices and vibe according to me and my parents are perfect! The times I've been in there have been great. I usually get tofu glass noodles FYI if anyone is interested. read more

Probably the best Sushi in south New Hanover Co., sort of hidden on the side road of Monkey Junction. Far better than ANYTHING I've been to at Carolina Beach, and rivaling some of the best places in the Historical District. So make the drive from CB or UNCW and you'll be glad you did. Be aware, Thai Spice ONLY SERVES SUSHI WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. Their fish is always fresh, the sushi and sashimi slices always thick, and their lunch specials are amazing-- the $9.99 Chef's Sashimi Special is six large slices of three kinds of sashimi with a tuna roll and soup, so bring a large appetite. By the way, their Thai Food is just as good as their Sushi, I'm just particular about my Sushi, and they do it WELL. I've had better Sushi, but I paid three times as much for it in major metropolitan areas like Houston, New York, and Cape Town. read more

My husband and I have only been here once. It was spur of the moment and for lunch. It was super excellent. There was a complimentary soup that was something I would never have ordered but was so good. I have this place book marked so I don't forget to go back. Def worth a try. UPDATE: I've been here now about 3 times. I think this place is super underrated. They give you a ton of food and everything we have ever tried has been really delicious. The only exception Is the crab rangoons--they are a little onion-y. But honestly, aside from that everything is delicious. You are missing out of if you don't go to this place based on location in a little strip mall. UPDATE-10/7/18: Here again. The seaweed salad remains a thing of beauty and salty crunchiness. Today the soup that comes with your meal was chicken and rice which is so flavorful. The two little spring rolls were fried and crunchy as usual as well. We also ordered The Red Dragon Sushi roll and pad see ewe. Everything came out quick and was so rich and fresh. You can trust you're going to get a reasonably priced meal, fast meal, and you will not leave hungry from this place. read more

Such a great lunch place. Friendly staff, delicious food, and spring rolls are complimentary at lunch. The Monkey Junction roll is terrific if you like spicy sushi. The presentation of the food is great, too. I love the thinly shredded carrots that are garnished on the side. read more

I absolutely love this place! I had been wanting to try this place forever and finally made it one night randomly when my girlfriend and I just though out a place to try. We got there early-ish and they were packed but thankfully we didn't have to wait for a table but we did have to wait a long time for our food. What takes so long for the food to come out!?!?! Thankfully the food was worth the wait. I did take a star away for the wait time on the food though Great prices and great food and I highly recommend giving them a try. I will be back again soon! Try the avocado roll... read more

Thai Spice was once my favorite Thai restaurant in Wilmington. It was one of those places that I would be willing to drive an hour and a half for. It is understood that restaurants would once in a while have a bad day and the cooking/food was off. Well... Thai Spice had 2 consistent bad days. What was once a 4 Stars Yelp review restaurant have been reduced to a 2 Stars Yelp review restaurant. Today was the day that I decide that it was my last time. The food quality has gone down drastically. I ordered a fried rice and it was burnt. You can see black marks on every piece of rice. All of our plates lacked color, NOTHING like the pictures on their menu. We ordered a pad see ew (a dish that is usually dark because of the soy sauce used to make it) was pale. The service quality have also gone down. There were only 2 people working the dining area during prime lunch hour. I had to ask for more water on more than once occasion. My order was not written down so I received the wrong plate of food. Our empty plates piled up. read more
