I came in for lunch because I was craving Thai. They had a great a selection, but I settled for the Pad Kee Mao and appetizers bar. That kept me full for the rest of my day. The service was good as the waitress topped off my water often. The restaurant was fairly cleaned and had plenty of seatings. Great for accommodating all customers during the lunch rush. I would come back for lunch. Best Bang for your money hands down.
The lunch menu is a great value, and if you can deal with a rather noisy lunch experience and are only there for the food, definitely put it on your bookmarks. I meant fellow Yelper Brian T for lunch and we sat in the back of the restaurant where there's a little alcove and I felt like it registered louder than a Def Leppard concert in the 80s. The appetizer bar is tasty with their crispy tempura, sushi rolls, and Tom Yum soup but the star is the fish sauce and the dried chili flakes. I got the pad see ew pork and the noodles were totally perfect but if it wasn't for the Thai chili flakes and the fish sauce, pepper vinegar, it was a little bland, even with the mild pepper order. The Thai coffee was amazing and at $3.99 it's a good value. I recommend coming, but if you're having a serious lunch conversation, the tile and acoustics definitely are noisy so bring earplugs or learn sign language.
Had a good dinner with my friends! Dining space is quite wide so we got to have nice dinner all together! The orders came fairly quickly with a good service! :) We had a good dining here so I recommend this restaurant for good meals! :)
This is my favorite Thai food spot in Houston. The service is usually good and it's never too busy unless you go around lunch time. I usually get egg rolls and edamame as an appetizer and the peanut chicken. They finally started serving alcohol under the new owner so that's a plus. The restaurant is in an old house type building so it's a quiet type of dinner spot. Their chili powder is extremely good if you love spicy.
Been going here for years to get my to-go orders whenever I'm too busy to cook. Sometimes I pay cash, sometimes I pay with card. What I didn't realize is this restaurant ADDS A FEE for whatever reason, and calling it a Cash Discount -- which is not a discount, as it is added, not subtracted. I'm shocked by this and very disappointed in the way they do business. They printed this when I walked in to pick-up my order, so they didn't know how I was going to pay. This was automatically added regardless of the method of payment. I went home to find two previous receipts, and just noticed this charge was on there. Again, doesn't matter how you pay!
One thing I really like about this place is the appetizer bar, I haven't seen that in a while and I like getting the chance to sample a bunch of apps. However some of them looked like they have been sitting there a while. The service is friendly and the food is decent. I got the cashew nut. It was pretty good but not super authentic in my opinion. Big portions though. Also lots of vegan options!
This place is one of those "not fancy, but amazing food" category. Food always fresh, tasty and good portion size, although the pad Thai was missing a bit of flavor. the service was fast and good. The restaurant is bring your own bottle kind of deal. So, if you are the type that like a drink with your meal you will need to bring it you. It's is good for small and large parties, and the atmosphere is pretty relaxed and enjoyable. There is a parking lot right across the restaurant.
I should have known. Alongside I-10 there lives a cluster of bars and restaurants that inhabit a small sorta shared space that attracts those looking for a pleasant afternoon, happy hour and meal. We pulled up today hoping to visit one bar and grille and even though it was early the place was hopping and so we made a fatal decision to move to the least populated one of the group, Ginger Thai. We walked into a huge but empty dining room, without a single patron. The menu was expansive and featured a lot of Thai favorites and so despite the empty room, we decided to give it a go...mistake number 2. We started with appetizers, shrimp and pork egg rolls and an order of spring rolls and the oddities continued to build. The eggroll contents had a yellow tint, a sort of jaundiced look with an underlying hint of curry. Different but not unpleasant. The spring rolls appeared to be standard fare until you dipped them into the accompanying peanut sauce which was strangely thin and sweet. Our server was not as knowledgeable of the menu as one would expect and when I asked if the charcoal grilled pork with vermicelli on the menu was a Vietnamese dish or a Thai version she was rendered speechless but ultimately said probably Vietnamese but they likely added something to it. For our mains we ventured to try a Crispy Chicken Pad Thai and the Charcoal grilled pork. The pad thai was again surprisingly sweet though the fried chicken cutlet was a nice touch. The grilled pork had nice grill marks but lacked marinating and the accompanying fish sauce was cloyingly sweet and appeared to be a strange mashup of duck and fish sauces. The building and decor can use repair and updates as well. Looks like this spot may need some revitalization. Not some place I will revisit.
Had the cheese rolls with a really different but super yummy cilantro dipping sauce. Basil fried rice and panang tofu.
This place was recommend by my barber to try out. I was not impressed at all. As far as covid restrictions, they were in place. Masked required upon entry and spacing was good. As far as food, it fell below standards. We ordered Thai basil chicken and yellow curry chicken. I could not taste any basil in my chicken nor could I view any traces of it on the dish. Perhaps they brought a wrong dish. I had requested spice level 4 but felt like eating a level 2. The yellow curried chicken's curry was actually very flavorful, but the potatoes in the dish were raw!!! They were not boiled. In my culture, if u serve a dish with potatoes and they are not boiled/cooked properly, then u will be called out!!! It's embarrassing and insulting. The rice was cheap quality, dried up. Also, it was $4 upgrade to beef or shrimp. First time I've heard that in any Thai restaurant. The most I've paid is about $2. This would have cost $8 extra just to upgrade protein. That's a dish on it's own. We saw our server at time of order and then when it was time for the tab. Sub/par service. I gotta let my barber know to change her opinion of this place. Failure.
Fantastic Chicken Pad Thai. Definitely a must try. I usually have a few dishes I stick to but the Pad Thai is now on my list. Plenty of fresh bean sprouts, leeks and peanuts. They added extra tamarind sauce just like I asked. The only thing missing was a slice of lime. Still amazing. Lunch comes with soup or salad so that's a plus.
Great fresh food. went there around 11:30AM.. before gets busy especially on Fridays. Excellent customer service. The selections were great! Server was coming over to make sure everything was okay.. refilled in a timely manner. We enjoyed it! 5 stars from me.
It is a convenient restaurant when you are in the area. The food and service are fast. Lovely Appetizers Bar set up.

Lunch service is fairly efficient, wasn't too busy when I stopped by a Monday afternoon. I did enjoy the salad bar options with the lunch combo (unlimited by the way) with some soups, tempura, Thai salads, spring/eggrolls, and some questionable looking sushi rolls. Entree portions were solid. Noodles were cooked well, kept me full. Nothing amazing but it got the job done. The restaurant and decor's a bit outdated, kind of messy, and the lighting wasn't great. Not the nicest vibe. Heads-up: They put a surcharge (credit card service fee) automatically on your bill so easy to miss (not a fan when restaurants try to get away with that) It's not a significant amount but makes me wonder how many people miss it. read more

Still on my quest for the ultimate thai spot, gave this place a try due to the good reviews. Unfortunately, it was a total bust. They do have the honor for the worst tasting chicken pad thai in memory, it had this offputting chilli taste, with none of the expected thai flavors - cant pay me to eat that again. The masaman curry was also wayy too sweet for my taste. The only thing ok was the pad ke mao, still a bit sweet, but was ok. The location is an older spot with an off putting musty odor. The service was mediocre, had to ask for rice and utensils. Needless to say, wont be going back. read more

The lunch buffet on weekdays is awesome! They have sushi, soup, salad, fruits, veggie tempura, spring rolls, egg rolls, and dessert. The sushi and veggie tempura are especially good. We were seated right away and our orders were taken promptly. Our food arrived extremely quickly; we hadn't even finished our food from the appetizer bar yet! The shrimp Pad Thai was very flavorful and the portion size was huge. Took a lot home for leftovers. I don't think the dinner or weekend lunch prices are worth it, but I would definitely return any weekday lunch for the appetizer bar. read more

Decent lunch spot with most specials running about $10 bucks + coupled with the appetizer buffet and I think Ginger Thai is winning. I tried the L13 spicy seafood and as much as I love spicy food, the heat on that bad boy was nothing nice. Don't think I'll be ordering that again. it was good though so if you have a higher threshold, I say go for it. FYI, the L7 original fried rice with chicken was a table winner as well. I've also tried the flash fried tilapia filet. It was really yummy but a bit on the smallish side. As far as the appetizer buffet goes, it was alright. Thin fried veg rolls, thin spring rolls, fried banana (very good but I took out some of the middle b/c it's a bit too mushy; I'm a firm banana lover), salad with a good amount of toppers, soups, and some sushi. But as a serious sushi lover, it just didn't look appetizing at all. The table service was good every time I've gone, no complaints. Tip: Whatever you do, don't miss out on the Thai tea...it's on point and oooh weeee delicious! read more
Better get here early if your coming for lunch because the secret is out on this place. You start out with a salad bar that also has egg rolls, spring rolls and basic sushi. But be careful not to keep going back and filling up on this because no matter what you choose for lunch it is good, Watch for the peppers next to the items on the menu to let you know what is spicy but if you see something that you like that does not have a pepper next to it just ask them to make it spicy and they will. Plenty of parking across the street, good food and service make this a place that I have eaten many times before joining Yelp. read more

I used door dash for this order. I've definitely have had better Thai food, but this place is solid. It's ducked off so you have to find it. The soup is pretty basic and so were the other menu options. People order Thai food to experience the flavor and I feel like I didn't get that from eating here. It's just basic. read more

I absolutely loved this place! The server was really sweet and attentive. We got fried calamari that was served with a chili sweet and sour sauce, and it was amazing. I got pineapple fried rice with shrimp and that was really good too. I loved their hot green tea as well! We got the fried ice cream which was really good & really really pretty. read more

A great place for Thai food! The best part was the appetizer buffet that includes.... sushi!!! Can you believe it? It was so awesome and the service was fast and good. We got massaman curry because it is the lunch special for Friday. It was not the best I've had but it was still delicious. Definitely a must try!! Especially for the appetizer buffet. read more
