Maybe the best Thai food place in the Twin Cities metro so far, because ever since I got introduced to this place in mid-July, I have been back 4 times since then and have catered from them for my birthday gathering that happened at the end of August, so it is easy to see how impressed I was with their food. Among all the dishes I have tried, some of my favorites include the crab fried rice, the panang curry, the tom yum soup, the mango sticky rice, the masaman curry, and the chicken wings. Particularly, the crab fried rice got my attention because it was significantly more expensive than the other fried rice dishes, so I knew there was a reason for that and ordered the dish. It was super flavorful and the real crab meat including the claws were evident, and it wasn't clumpy at all, indicating that they used rice that was at least a day old. The panang curry was so savory that the ground peanuts just elevated the flavor and gave it that much creaminess texture. The masaman had a good amount of onions, tomatoes, potatoes, and roasted peanuts, and offered a comprehensively pleasant experience. The mango sticky rice was as good as that dish itself could be, because the dessert creation was simply fire. And finally, the chicken wings had incredibly soft meat and was seasoned inside out which made them really tasty. I would say the only dishes I didn't enjoy as much was the pad see yew which I thought had too much soy sauce because it was a bit salty. I also thought the pad thai didn't have enough tamarind and a bit too much palm sugar, but honestly that's with Thai food here in the United States in general. Regardless, the food here is just too good and this establishment may have just become my go-to spot for Thai food within the metro if I am to hang out with my friends over Thai food. I must also mention that the space is really nice because it bright and has many tables which makes it easy to hang out with friends and chat here, and I thoroughly love that. read more

Frequent patron and huge fan! Over the years I've had every single vegetarian dish on the menu - fried egg rolls and fresh spring rolls with tofu, squash curry, red curry, pineapple curry, stir fried mixed vegetables, Pad Thai, pad see yew, drunken noodles, Thai basil stir fry, Masaman curry is such a comfort dish, Panang curry is amazing, I've literally tried all of it. Honestly, haven't had a bad dish! Make sure you specify the spice level you want when ordering. We typically order for pickup, but have eaten in the restaurant a couple times. Service and atmosphere are fine. But pickup is super convenient for a yummy meal at home and prices are very reasonable. Portion sizes are enough for leftovers the next day. One of my local favorites and will definitely keep coming back. read more

PAD THAI GOAT! I prefer the chicken pad Thai and I wanted to try the beef so I tried the beef patty today. It is a little on the dryer side versus the chicken patty however, the beef was very good for an Asian restaurant. I got the fried bananas with the coconut ice cream and chocolate drizzle and it was dynamite. This is a must get. I wanted to get the mango sticky rice, but they ran out of mangoes. read more

I got the chicken drunken noodles for take out and it was so so flavorful! I love the chewiness of the noodles and it really soaked up all the flavors. Portions were a good size as well. The only thing is the chicken was quite dry and wish it was juicer. read more

Coconut Thai - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

Don't overlook this dish--it's one of Coconut Thai's hidden gems. The Stir-Fried Garlic & Black Pepper Chicken delivers big flavor without relying on heavy sauces. The chicken is incredibly tender with just the right amount of garlic, black pepper, and a subtle kick of heat. Served over crisp lettuce with fresh cucumbers and tomatoes, it's lighter than a curry but still incredibly satisfying. Everything tastes fresh, the portions are generous, and the balance of savory, peppery, and slightly sweet flavors keeps you coming back for another bite. If you're looking for something beyond Pad Thai, this is an easy recommendation. Fresh, flavorful, and one of those dishes you'll end up ordering again. read more

Coconut Thai - Stir-Fried Garlic & Black Pepper Chicken--tender chicken coated in a bold garlic-pepper glaze over crisp lettuce, cucumbers, and tomatoes. - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

I've been here a few times over the years. I've also been to Bangkok and Koh Samet. These places do not really resemble each other, food wise. The service is quick and friendly but the food does not remind me of Thailand. On its own, the fried rice, curries and noodles are just OK. read more

I'm visiting from out of state and the friend I'm staying with loves Thai food (as do I). I remembered how good the St. Paul location was when I went last year. We got the pad see ew and massaman curry. The pad see ew was as good as I remembered from the Stpl location. Service was friendly. Restaurant was not crowded or loud. I'd love to come back next time I'm in MN! read more

Coconut Thai - Pad see ew with tofu - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

Coconut Thai has a fantastic, convenient location, and the service overall was good. My husband ordered the Thai stir-fried cashews with mock duck and he really enjoyed his meal. Unfortunately, my entree was a bit lackluster. I got the shrimp Pad Thai and the noodles were mushy and could have used a bit more flavor or maybe spice? I wasn't offered a choice on a spice scale when ordering and the dish ended up being very, very mild. Sadly, we weren't offered a dessert menu either, which was a bummer because I really wanted to ask if they had their fresh mango sticky rice in season. Granted it was an hour before closing so they could've been in a rush to close up shop. read more

First time in and i really enjoyed it!!! Thai food is one of my favorites and the red curry was so creamy and flavorful I love the fried tofu addition as well with a generous portion of rice to go with it. The food came out really fast! My friend ordered the Thai fried rice with chicken which had a nice taste too! We both really enjoyed our meal if love to come back to try the massman, pad Thai and drunken noodles next! Also loved that you can adjust your spice level I went with 2s this time so was mild but flavorful but I'd try a little higher next time also there was an option to just have the chilli oil on the side to add as we wanted read more

Came in with cousins and Mom on a very cold night. The Menu looked a lot like a favorite place we visit in Golden Valley / Plymouth area. The good? Staff was quite nice. The food was tasty. However it felt like everything had way too much sugar added. The shrimp appetizers were great. Calamari was greasy and coating fell off the squid. Main dishes were basil tofu fried rice. Quite more sweet than expected. Panang curry was also a bit too sugary. If these dishes would have been less sweet it would have been a home run. read more

I decided to try some different things today, so I ordered the Pad See Ew with fresh tofu. I don't know how fresh tofu differs from tofu (also on the menu) but I preferred it over the chicken I had last time. It was good, but medium spice it wasn't. There was plenty of Thai basil and red & green bell pepper slices as well as onions. But it was pretty bland and the noodles were dry. It needs some kind of sauce. The cream cheese puffs are my absolute favorites because they are crispy like puff pastry and stuffed with cream cheese. For fun, I decided to try the Spring Rolls with shrimp. They were delicious, the shrimps plump - not flattened - sliced lengthwise, lotsa lettuce and rice noodles. I would have liked more cilantro, but then I always want more. read more

It's been several years since I've been here, we were shopping in the area and decided to dine here for dinner. They were busy in the evening, we had to wait an hour for a table. Which was fine, we went to check out the stores in the area to kill time. Restaurant is spacious, bright, and clean. Staff was wonderful, paid special attention to my friend peanut allergy since we ordered fried item, peanuts are fried in the same oil. Food is delicious as always. Definitely recommend this restaurant if you're in the area. read more

Went up to Coconut Thai last weekend. The limeade I drank was really good and as someone who usually doesn't eat Thai food I enjoyed pineapple fried rice. The service was ehhh, not bad, but not the best. But I would love to come back and try other things on the menu! read more

Coconut Thai - Pineapple Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

Thai food is usually spicy. If salt is considered a spice, then Coconut Thai is the spiciest Thai restaurant I've ever eaten at. I ordered the Laab salad with chicken. After the first bite I knew it was way over salted but I was in a hurry. I thought if I added enough rice, it would be edible. It wasn't. I thought if I added enough lime it would be edible. I had to ask for lime and they brought me one entire wedge! It didn't help. It's possible they added some other seasoning to the salad but all I could taste was the salt. There was definitely no heat (chili pepper). There was mint but some of the leaves were black and rotten. I told the server the salad was way too salty. She said she would tell the chef so they would prepare it differently for me next time. There will be no next time. read more

Please try this place. Their pineapple fried rice is absurdly good. Served in a half pineapple, the serving is generous for the price. The service can be a little lukewarm, but not rude. The food and ambiance are good enough to overlook it. read more

Coconut Thai is one of my favorite Thai restaurants by far! The curry puffs are a delicious savory burst of flavor with a crispy outer crust! You can order dishes on the menu with varying spice levels. We get the Drunken Noodles medium spice which is the perfect amount of heat, but not quite burning your tongue off, and the Panang Curry mild. Their dishes come in large portions that are perfect for sharing! The staff is always very friendly and the food comes out in a timely manner. read more

Good, not great. We tried Coconut Thai for my son's birthday. All in all, it was pretty decent food, but nothing that we would go out of our way for. If you're nearby, definitely try it. It's definitely a popular place, and service was good. It's beer and wine only. Everyone in our group enjoyed the appetizers and entrees. We didn't try any desserts since we had cake waiting at home. read more

Stopped here for lunch and shop and was really impressed by the lunch. We ordered the following doe share: Pad sea eew, fried tofu, spring roll, Thai iced tea and Thai iced coffee. The portion is good and the speed was fast. One of the favorite is the deep fried tofu. It was so good!! Outside was crunchy and inside was soft. Its just so yummy. It was not busy for a Tuesday afternoon. Wish the restrooms had changing table to make it more kids friendly. read more

This is a nice casual restaurant offering very authentic Thai food. The staff is very friendly and I had a nice lunch - a tasty bowl of Tom Yum Goong (shrimp). As advertised, it was spicy. I chose a spice level of 4 and probably could have done a 3....and I like spicy food! The menu offers a nice mix of soups, noodle bowls, curries (I think there were 5 different "colors" of curry). Will have to try those next time. read more

I was really looking forward to finally making it here after hearing so many good things but to be totally honest, it didn't exceed expectations. I'm not sure it totally met them either. I'm a huge Thai food fan, we usually order takeout and I was excited to finally order in-restaurant. The cream cheese wontons were really the only excellent thing - everything else was just "ok" and lacked a lot of flavor. I figured the red curry would have some sort of kick to it but it tasted mainly bland. I'm gonna stick with Nai's Thai moving forward. read more

4.4* (out of 5) Food: 5* Atmosphere: 5* Value: 4* Service: 3* Would I go back / Recommend?: 5* (Definitely) Total check/person: $33 05/16/2024 We were visiting our son and his fiancé in Minneapolis and knowing that we like Thai food, he recommended this for all of us for dinner - as one of his favorite Thai restaurants. The restaurant is beautiful brick on the outside (see pictures) and has a very modern interior decor (see pictures). While the Value is above average, it is a bit pricey - as curry and soup dishes are around $18 with an added protein. The four of us started with beers and a Thai Iced Tea along with appetizer orders of Gyoza pan-fried pork dumplings (see picture) and Fresh Thai Spring Rolls (see picture). We all enjoyed both - as they tasted just as good as they look in the pictures. For our main courses, the others ordered Tom Yum Soup (see picture), Squash Curry Chicken (see picture) and Green Curry Beef (see picture). As I wasn't particularly hungry and always like to order Papaya Salad if its on the menu, I went with that (see picture). We all shared tastes of each others dishes and found all of them to be delicious! If you follow my posts, you know how hard it is for me to leave a restaurant without sampling their desserts and tonight was no different. Since we were all pretty full already, we decided to order the Cheesecake Roll (see picture) and a scoop of Grean Tea Ice Cream (see picture) and share both of them. Again, both of them were at least as good as they look in the pictures and I would recommend them both. Lastly, I ended up giving Service a 3* rating - not because it was bad, but because it was just that - average. We didn't have a consistent person waiting on us, the communication was a little challenging and there was a wait for drink refills. Worse yet (and given the previous paragraph), I had a bit of a panic attack when we had to flag someone other than our server down to order dessert, then wait well beyond the check arriving for the dessert to be delivered. I was getting concerned that they forgot the most important part of the meal... :-) In the end, it was delivered though and tasted so good that it was worth the wait! A modern and attractive atmosphere with great Thai food in Edina makes the Coconut Thai a restaurant that you'll want to experience in person.

I had dinner here the other day with family and came in right before closing.. and they still seated us fortunately! The service was friendly and the interior was clean and modern. I ordered the pineapple fried rice, which is a go to for me at Thai restaurants.. and I really enjoyed this one! Super big portions too. Others at my table ordered a tom yum soup - which if you order a spicy level 3 is quiiiiite spicy for me, but delicious. I'd probably get a 1 or 2. I forgot what the other orders were but they were tasty too. If I lived in the area I'd probably be tempted to try the rest of the menu! read more

Coconut Thai - Pineapple fried rice - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

I have been here three days in a row for takeout. Why? The flavor, freshness, and portion sizes cannot be beat. Rarely, do you find a food container FILLED with the items you ordered like fresh tofu and veggies. Here, your spoon will always be weighted with food. They do not use styrofoam either and bag up your items in a cute, reuseable tote. LOVE this place! read more

Coconut Thai - Fresh tofu and veggies! - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

One of the best Thai spots in the twin cities! We loooooved the cream cheese wontons, especially the dipping sauce. The drunken noodles has great flavor. The pineapple curry was just enough spice and huge amount of pineapple and protein. Could have used a bit more flavor for the fried rice. But we absolutely loved it! Lots of seating. There is covered parking in walking distance. It's around a bunch of other shops as well, super fun location. read more

I've been here twice now for lunch and loved it both times. I got the squash curry (red curry) and yellow curry with tofu. Both were excellent. We also got the fried Thai eggrolls and they were really good too. I would get everything again. The waitresses were excellent and very friendly. They helped retrieve our stroller at the end of lunch and everything (we put it off to the side so it wouldn't be in the way). I'll definitely be coming back. read more

A hidden gem in Edina! If you want authentic and delicious Thai food, this is the place for you! Pad Thai is awesome and can be completely vegetarian which most of their dishes can be made without any meat! The portions are also big enough to last you another meal or share with a friend! Service can be slow when they're busy but it's worth the wait. Otherwise if you're in a hurry, just order for takeout or delivery! Kid friendly atmosphere and also a good place to get together with friends! And yes, they have Sticky Rice with Mango for dessert! read more

Coconut Thai - Appetizer - Thai Near Me - Edina, Minnesota

10/10 for the food. I've always loved their food. Excellent taste and quality. Very vegan-friendly as well. 1 star for the service. Our waitress was visibly annoyed by our existence, and I have my theories but I'll stick to the facts: She gave an attitude when I added appetizers to our order. She kept trying to take the menu and I kept telling her that I had more to order. She was visibly annoyed by this. I asked for a certain spice level and she was annoyed by this. I asked for chili oil, chopsticks, extra napkins, straws, and plum or sweet and sour sauce for the veggie rolls and curry puffs and she darn near had a fit. Mind you, by that time we realized she had a problem so we asked for a few things at a time, but that didn't help. Oh, and when I asked for the Thai Fried Rolls (or whatever the name is on the menu) she was like "what is that?" I pointed to the menu and she said, "Oh, egg rolls. They're egg rolls." Miss ma'am the menu doesn't call them that so how are we to know that you call them something else?? My friend asked about the spice level for her Sriracha Fried Rice and the waitress got annoyed, saying it's already spicy. Completely ignoring the request to adjust the spice level (which can be done on rice and curry dishes). Lastly, no checking on us to see if we needed anything. No refilling of our empty water glasses. I specifically waited an hour to see if she'd notice my empty water glass. She didn't. It wasn't until she audibly heard my slurping of the empty glass that she brought water. Mind you, the table of Caucasian women behind us kept getting refills. I was fed up and told her that she seemed annoyed. She denied and gave me the most lame excuse, "No, but you keep asking for things and... Well, but it's not that busy right now." Poppycock. Her attitude commenced when we walked in. (And we were there on business, working with our laptop too. So it's not like we were a loud, rambunctious party of two.) I still tipped her, though she didn't deserve it. I love their food, so I will no doubt order again, but carryout only henceforth. Shame! read more

Okay, for those of you from CA, I'm not trying to dis our Thai food restaurants but the more I travel outside of CA, the better the Thai food gets. I have not had very good Thai did in CA for a while now. Coconut Thai is amazing! They treat you like family. They do the best they can when the place is packed , the line is out the door for their to go orders that are being picked up. When you walk in the place feels welcoming & charming. It is located in an outdoor shopping area. Here's the secret... go shopping, but go to eat at Coconut Thai around 4:30pm any later and the place will be swamped. Again, Great Thai food!! read more

We had not been back for a few months, we were surprised at the new space/addition. We were sat in that space. It seems that the new space is an after thought as far as service. We waited, water was brought out at least 3 times, they were fairly busy, in the other room, the original. I have to say the food was better than ever! The price point is great! However the service will keep us from going back. The problem I see, from my point and experience in restaurants, is that there are no designated sections. Everyone is free styling. From take out, to seating, to serving drinks or food, it's a free for all. This would be fine, however one doesn't know what the others have done. Again, food was great. If I were the restaurant I would invest in a training team. read more
