A M A Z I N G ! Absolutely perfect, on-the-money curries IMO, had them all, "Mengie" spoiled me, she gave me a taste of each and it was truly hard to pick. Apps, sauces, teas . . everything about Flamin' Thai was unexpectedly wonderful. Been eating Thai since my twenties and am now in my mid-sixties, have enjoyed eating authentic in Bangkok, some very good Thai in New York. Minneapolis and St.Paul have many good Thai Restaurants but none have been better than Flamin' Thai. I met Khan and Mengie the day I walked in, their service was extraordinary, so welcoming. read more

The staff were very friendly! They were helpful and the food was great too. Thai tea was my favorite.

Love this place! Came on a Thursday evening with my friend and her daughter. Super easy to get a table. Though it was nice to have a reservation option if needed! We ordered the beef jerky and crispy egg rolls for appetizers. And I had pad kee mao (drunken noodles) for my entree. My friend and her daughter had the red curry and khao piak sen. The food was amazing! A good place to go, especially if you like spice. Alberto our server was phenomenal!! He was kind, fun and attentive. For sure went above any expectation. He gave my friend's daughter a chopstick holder to help her eat, checked in on us the perfect amount, and made sure our leftover food was able to be packed securely. I'll definitely come back! read more

We've ate there before when they were located near the U of M. Tastes good. We stopped by their new location for sashimi and was greeted with familiar faces. Sat at the sushi bar and chatted with the sushi chef. There's murals on different walls for guests that love taking selfies, fun place, delicious food and cocktails. Meter parking in the front otherwise parking ramp behind the restaurant. read more

We wanted Thai one night and found this great restaurant. We arrived just before the end of happy hour would end. We ordered a bunch of appetizers off the HH menu. We all had great dinners. Mine was a Massaman Curry. Delicious! read more

Stopped by here on my very short visit to Minneapolis. Arrived around 6pm or so on a Friday evening and there was plenty of seating (albeit it was pretty rainy and cold that day). Service was speedy and friendly and I got my food super quickly. The chicken pad thai was very solid. Very bouncy noodles and a bit more on the saucier side. Pretty solid portion. I don't think I asked for it to be spicy so I can't comment on that, but overall I think this is a really solid casual Thai spot good for dine-in or takeout. read more

After seeing the signs for a few months, Flamin' Thai finally opened up in what was a vacant spot for a very long time on University. I live in the neighborhood and we were definitely missing a good Thai restaurant so I was very happy to hear this place was moving in. When we walked in, we were floored by how huge the space was. There were way more tables inside than I was expecting. However, we were even more blown away by how packed it was. Every table was taken except for 1 - ours :) so we were kindly seated immediately. This place has been renovated so well, I was told by a friend it used to be a pub and you cannot tell at all (except for in the bathroom where it seems unchanged) - the restaurant interior is beautiful, even featuring some Instagram worthy (or Yelp worthy) backdrops for taking social media pics! The waiter was very kind and working extra hard, I felt pretty bad about how fast he had to move around since it seemed pretty stressful, but he was taking it in stride. I ordered the Thai Tea along with the Massaman Curry. On top of that, my friends ordered the Crying Tiger Beef and Red Curry which I was able to try both of. The Thai tea was phenomenal - might be the best in the cities which I was super shocked by. As for the curry, the portions were pretty reasonable considering it is a little on the pricier side (~$20). And it came with a side of jasmine rice. The massaman was so flavorful and so delicious, this is one of my favorite curries so if you have never tried one before, I highly recommend you try it and here is a great place to do so! The crying tiger steak was cooked perfectly medium rare, I tried it and the dry rub was fantastic, I need to figure out what they use in it so I can make at home. The red curry was also great, but I think I made the right choice - the massaman was my favorite. I also saw they have some sweet happy hour deals so I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Welcome to the neighborhood, Flamin Thai! Really happy to see this block blossoming again. We stopped in a couple weeks before their grand opening so they didn't have their liquor license yet. We tried a curry, cream cheese wontons, spring rolls, and the tom yum soup. Their soups come in a proper hot pot which was fun. The menu is extensive so I'm excited to get back there and try a few more items. The curry in particular was great-- nice thickness and good flavor. Service was very kind and prompt, especially for being so new. read more

Food was tasty. Waiters were fun. We shared red Thai curry pork and a platter of sashimi, sushi, and rolls. We ordered a bottle of wine that they were out of; however, our waiter ran across the street to buy the bottle from the liquor store. Now that's service! We had a nice window seat. read more

Great food. Best pad Thai I've had in a while. They don't skimp on the veggies in their curry like so many restaurants I've been to do. Fun atmosphere. Open late. Will come back for sure read more

Can't speak to the service as I ordered to go, but this place is busy! Parking, as expected in this area is a little tricky, but there is a paid ramp attached to the building. My food came out quickly after I arrived. I ordered veggie pad Thai. It was good, not great. Could've used more sauce and a bit more spice. It was also very egg heavy. I'd definitely go back during the week when it's not so busy to dine in. read more

Arrived early to pick up my online order, and the genial host at the bar served me water. Learning that we'd just moved in around the corner, he said, "you'll be here a lot. This is everyone's favorite Thai place." Judging by the ambiance and food, I can see why. Nice space for sit down meal. Our basic order of pad Thai and basil fried rice was excellent and very freshly prepared. We will indeed be there a lot, for both pickup & sit-down. read more

Flamin' Thai has definitely become one of my favorites in the Twin Cities for delicious Thai cuisine. The food is delicious and the service is extremely friendly and attentive. The vibe there is relaxed and comfortable. This time I opted for the crispy egg rolls, which were definitely a tasty starter. I often play it safe and order pad Thai, which is always yummy, but decided to try the Thai Duck Curry, which is listed as a patron favorite. I can definitely see why. The duck was juicy and perfectly crispy, and the red curry with bell peppers served with it was well spiced and creamy. My server at the bar was friendly and engaging, even sharing a Thai phrase regarding my love of spicy food that translated to "If it's not spicy, it's not good". I live by these words so I appreciated him sharing. The owner stopped by to check how my meal was and because of my love of spice, offered to show me his fresh grown chilis he uses. What an excellent meal. I know I'll be back again for that duck again soon! read more

Great location and atmosphere. Was there before Happy Hour in the middle of a Saturday afternoon and the place was fairly quiet. I enjoyed the Red Thai Curry Delight with chicken. Made with Red Thai curry paste, bell peppers, Thai eggplant, bamboo shoots, Thai basil, coconut milk and chicken it was an excellent red Thai curry and served with a side of white rice. Warmly greeted at the door by the bartender who invited me to be seated where I wished. The service was excellent and attentive. I will definitely be visiting here again the when I am again in Northeast Minneapolis. read more

The sushi is excellent! Very flavorful and fresh. I also highly recommend the Thai iced coffee -- it's so good I got a second one to go.

Ordered Flamin' Thai for delivery the other night and was really impressed. It took about an hour to arrive, but I appreciated that they were open until later than other places. I ordered the drunk fried rice and the pad Thai. I'd highly recommend both of these dishes. I also ordered cream cheese wontons, but they were over cooked and weren't worth it. read more

The waiter we had was fun and funny. He was attentive and made us feel welcome in the restaurant. The food is ok. If the "flamin" is about the temperature of the food, then it is an apt descriptor. If it is supposed to reflect the spicy "heat" of their food, then I'm afraid it is quite lacking. I asked for my dish to be hot. It wasn't at all. The flavor was still nice, but I find it less than satisfying to eat food that I expect to be spicy to not be so. What I ordered is the Crispy Pork Belly. I also ordered the Crispy Egg Roll. These are ok, too, though I do not like the sauce with which they are served. The atmosphere is nice and the staff are friendly. read more

Great food, good quantity. We ordered red & green curry. They both were yummy. Papaya salad was fresh, great dressing. Great service

I've always had good service and food when I've been here. Their pad thai is great and there are some good starters as well. Great location.

The food tasted great, but the wait was insanely long for takeout (45 minutes). The price was also very high compared to the quality of the sushi rolls, but maybe the price of fish has gone up? The curry was great too, but it didn't come with rice which was confusing. read more

Amazing Thai!! I had the fresh shrimp and pork spring rolls, red curry with chicken and rice and they were phenomenal. I live in LA and travel for work and let me tell you that you're going to have a hard time finding a more authentic tasting curry anywhere else. The restaurant is super clean and the staff is above friendly my server (Laiman) helped by suggesting one of his favorite dishes he gave GREAT service, very attentive. I will be back at the end of the month for a repeat dinner. read more

I was walking on university and came along this restaurant. I am glad I did because my boyfriend, mother in law and I liked it! Looks modern, casual We had a good experience and not to mention the staff here are very friendly and nice. Our server was super cool and always had a smile on. When we order we got our food pretty quick. I order the holy basil friend rice with chicken and loved it! My boyfriend and mother in law got the pad Thai ( one beef and one chicken) and they both enjoyed it. The portions were good. To finish it off my boyfriend got the fried vanilla ice cream and said he liked it and I got the mango sticky rice and liked it as well. The only thing is that the tables were very close to each other. Not sure if it was like that because it was there soft opening weekend. But either way I am definitely going back! read more

We were looking for an Asian restaurant to eat so stumble upon this Thai restaurant in downtown Minneapolis..My first time here. The food was phenomenal. Every dish was delicious. I especially loved the drunken noodles (my favorite). We were served by Kimmy. He was so friendly and kind. Has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend this place. read more

My boyfriend and I went for Happy Hour we got the Flamin'rita and he got the Mijoto! Both super greatc but the Flamin'rita is a very cute drink. Then the bartender, Tony, made his own spin on Lemon Drops which was actually super good with a little bit of spice, I believe he put red pepper flakes in them. I thought he was amazing, very nice and kept us laughing. We then had the calamari, shrimp spring rolls for apps and they were amazing. Great dipping sauces for both. My boyfriend got the spicy tuna roll, yellowtail roll, and I'm unsure what the third one was, but he ate them all and it was definitely fresh fish. I got the pineapple curry and it was Soooo delicious. Will definitely be back to try more curry and food. Great happy hour experience/date. I also love all the plants hanging in the place, it has a very nice setting/ambiance. read more

I always saw the sign for this place but I think it opened recently! The lighting was dim so I thought it was closed but thankfully not! Parking: there's lots of street parking around the area so I never had problems. Service/vibe: this space is huge! They have lots of fun decor too and a little greenery wall to take fun pics. Our server was great! She was patient, fun, and gave great recs for food! The only thing - it's a little too dark in here in my opinion. Food: food was pretty good! The drinks were yummy and portion size was also good. I would definitely come back. Their menu is very extensive and they try to accommodate all the different dietary restrictions. My friend got sushi and I got the pad see ew with tofu. read more

First, the service was good. The Basil Fried Rice with Tofu was pretty good. The Pad Thai was greasy and had a unfamiliar fishy taste. I ordered Chicken Pad Thai and it had very few pieces of chicken. The food was pricey and they charged a 3% charge for using a credit card. I wanted to like the place but probably wouldn't return. read more

Flamin’ Thai - 8. Lao Beef Jerky - Thai Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Was actually excited to try this place. Ordered the spring roll and red curry. Red curry is small quantity for the price. Chicken was not high quality rubbery and majority of the sauce is bulky lemon grass chunks so you are not really getting much as an entree. But what was huge disappointment was the spring roll. After eating halfway noticed a lot of insects/ants inside. Totally killed my appetite! Called them and spoke to someone named Khan who basically told me that fruit flies and ants are normal and to be expected in spring rolls because they can't control them on the lettuce /leaves etc. no apology no recognition basically was surprised that I was sharing this. Maybe I have high standards but I would prefer not to have insects in my food thank you very much! Will not return! read more
