In Del Rio for fury duty and needed something to take to apartment. Found this place on Yelp. They were closing but took our order for pick up. People nice and everything packed up good. Food hot and good. Had spicy chicken soup, hot wings, lemon chicken and fried wontons. read more

My daughter and I decided to give Jitra Thai a try during our stay in Del Rio. This visit is the second time I've had Jitra in over 10 years, and my daughter's first experience. The food isn't terrible, considering this is something exotic for Del Rio. We phoned in a take-out order for Thai Spring Rolls, Tom Yum Gai (spicy chicken soup), and Tom Yum Koong (spicy shrimp soup). The 4 Thai spring rolls were fried crispy with a savory meat filling and came with two different dipping sauces and a side salad. The Tom Yum soups (Gai and Koong) were a nice blend of savory tanginess but not as spicy as we requested (Thai spicy). The two soup dishes were just that, soup, with no rice or noodles. While the menu does list these dishes as soups a note to diners offering an option of adding rice or noodles to go with the soup would be nice. We went back to order sides of noodles to go with the soup which cost an extra $3.00 each on top of the $10.95 and $12.95 we paid for just the broth, some meat and mushrooms. Take-out service was okay, and with the exception of having to order extra items to make our dishes complete, this was a nice change but nothing that would compete with our usual go to's for Thai food. read more

There's not much of this in Del Rio, so for this town this may be a four. I have always had the curry. And it is great. My podner tries the fried rice.. which is so soggy that it's like mashed potatoes.(really killed it) The benefit is that the shrimp are large in all aspects. The curry can be ordered through six levels, 1-5, or Thai hot... five was nice, but if you want liftoff, go for Thai hot. Overall, nice spot... You can get a great meal, and I'll try something else to be more complete read more

When in Del Rio, TX and in the mood for Asian cuisine, where do you go? Jitra Thai is a little shack that has accommodated the COVID-19 crowd by having drive-thru only service. I recommend ordering ahead of time and picking up later. I got the Kung Pao Tofu and it delivered a slightly sweet, slightly spicy punch with plenty of crispy vegetables, crunchy peanuts, and lots tofu cubes. I will admit, this is not a gourmet restaurant. But they provide plain, well cooked Asian food in an area where it's not easy to come by. So if you have that eastern craving when you're on the border, try Jitra Thai. read more

Jitra Thai Cuisine - Kung Pao Tofu with white rice - Thai Near Me - Del Rio, Texas

For a small town like Del Rio I have never gotten a bad meal from Jitra. I love Pat Thai and they make a very good one. Just be careful with the heat. The soups and appetizers always crunchy and good and when I can get a Fresh Roll you bet theirs is very good. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Food is good. But ever since covid there hours of operation suck. People want to go eat dinner there but can't because they close like at 5. And there buffet used to be so good. But now they've changed things. Not very good service. And the meat quality has changed as well. Someone has some explaining to do or change things back the way they used to. They've probably lost alot of clients and service. read more

Thai Egg Rolls were super crispy, and the pad kee mao was spicy and and flavorful. Fella in the drive through was friendly too

If you place an order to go. Be sure and check every bit of your order. These people are incompetent. It happens often. The son is arrogant and will not let you talk to the owners so they will know first hand. We have had bad experiences several time. Ps Food is excellent! read more

First time in. I went to lunch with some friends after our golf date. We had lunch here and was pleasantly surprised. The buffet looked amazing, my salad was cold, crunchy and delicious. Our servers were very attentive and quick on drink refills. We'll be back. I plan to bring my hubby here for him to experience. read more

Wow, the first time we went here we were so impressed, but boy how the tables have turned. From dirty tables to poor service. We eventually got bored of waiting for our check and had to go to the counter to pay. The man behind the register did not care about our experience. read more

Food was great, super good service was alright but nothing bad! Overall super nice atmosphere!

If you haven't had too much Thai food in your life, it's not noticeably bad. If you are Thai/Asian/used to Thai food, you may feel disappointed. We had to check it out once, and we don't feel the need to go again. Panang curry was not very good for us. It's huge portion but it was a lot of coconut milk and very thick. Tom yum goon was OK. I prefer more spice but it was not bad. The servers are Mexican people and the owner is Thai. But their menu is very confusing with Thai, Chinese and Japanese. No Papaya salad. read more

The food is fantastic. You don't feel sick after eating. Due to pandemic, they are still not doing indoor dining. You have to order ahead and pick up at the window. The soups are fantastic. The staff is very sweet. read more

Wide selection of Asian dishes, from Chinese to Thai, to Japanese. They can always turn the heat on with their Thai dishes.

Nothing more than delicious food! Love their yellow chicken curry and their peppered steak! Generous portions too!

Incredibly mediocre Asian food. Good thing is they have a pretty expansive menu so it's easy to find something for everybody. I would say this restaurant isn't great for kids. We felt really cramped and like we were bother everybody even though our kids were well behaved. If I ate here again I I'd take the food to go read more

I just moved to Del Rio a week ago and was super excited to see there was a Thai restaurant here. Little did I know that this so called "Thai" place was actually a really bad Chinese buffet. The food was chewy and over cooked, the kicker was that most of it was cold. I only ate at the buffet, I didn't dare order anything off the menu after tasting the horrible food on the buffet line. Needless to say I will never go back. How ever with all of their misses I will say that they did have good curry and good Thai tea. Warning it is 4.00 a glass and no refills, but it is a very tall glass. Cons. bad food, not Thai, not even close. Pros. Good Thai tea, good curry. read more

I have nothing good to say about this restaurant. I ordered lunch here today, once I opened the container I was immediately turned off by the appearance and smell of the food. I ordered Tso Chicken crispy and got soggy meat that I think was chicken. The flavor was even more disappointing. My fried rice taste old and was lacking in flavor also. I will not be returning to this restaurant, I honestly believe that they are cheating people out of there money by serving this horrible food. I don't believe that anyone in that kitchen knows what there doing or take any pride in there work for that matter. TERRIBLE place, I don't recommend eating at this restaurant. read more

What has happened to Jitra? Once upon a time, Jitra served good Thai food, it has become sub par along the same level of microwave Asian cuisine. If you don't know what Thai and Asian cuisine should taste like you'll appreciate Jitra in the same way an ignorant person will think Taco Bell is Mexican food. Once upon a time, Jitra served good Thai food, I'm severely disappointed with the downslope of a business that once introduced Del Rio to delicious Thai cuisine. read more

Coming from California, I didn't expect much for a town with few Asians. I did not see a single Thai person working here. Service was fine, food was way salty and too saucy, pork was tough to chew, maybe overcooked. I'll try to help improve their dishes by custom ordering next time, hopefully they listen to customer feedback to improve! read more

Great food and service. We will definitely be back. The low mein was awesome, along with the fried rice.

I have eaten at Jitra many times over the years and have recently seen the quality and quantity of the portions steadily decline. My last visit there was the worst yet. I am sad to say that it will be my last visit. read more

The owner is a very nice lady, but I'm not impressed with the food here. It has more of a Chinese flair than authentic Thai. There are three other Asian restaurants in Del Rio and while Jitra's is not completely horrible, it just doesn't deliver. Out of all the Del Rio Asian cuisine choices, Jitra's food would rated second to last for me. The service is not professional. Once I went there and the waitress was speaking on her cell phone while serving us and kicked a lemon across the floor instead of picking it up. The salad also looked like it was carelessly ripped off the lettuce cabbage and sprinkled with carrots. One of the most exotic selections they have on their menu is the duck but it's overcooked and you can't ever taste the quality of the duck or its skin. All it does is make me miss the duck from Chinatown in Los Angeles. I typically stick with the curry dishes with bamboo because they're pretty good and I have leftovers to take home. I also love the Thai tea, but be warned that it is extremely milky and sweet more than anything. (I have a bad sweet tooth). Jitra's Thai Cusine has so much potential to be greater because it has the strongest atmosphere in comparison to the other Asian restaurants in Del Rio... but because the food is lacking passion, it's almost a disappointment. But I do feel like most places in Del Rio don't even try because there isn't much competition to motivate them. read more

Food is very good. Especially the rice. Hard to compare to other asian cuisine. Service is great

While this may not be a super authentic thai restaurant, it is still good. I enjoy the buffet which includes the normal dishes like pot-stickers and spring rolls, but also throws in a curry or two. I am giving it four stars because: *While it may be average (or a little below) in a normal sized town, this is the best Asian restaurant located in Del Rio. *It works to fix a quick asian food craving. *Their Thai Tea is awesome (and made with half & half so its definitely not low calorie) read more

As a vegan in Texas, it's almost never convenient or easy to eat out. Luckily, I was able to get an egg and fish sauce free lomein made with pad thai noodles. So good! Ask for the pad Thai lomein if you order it. Will definitely be coming back next time I'm in Del Rio. read more

I believe it was the owner that sat us, he's a very nice man. The service is good but not great- strictly business and not quite friendly but not rude either. Neutral. The decor is very pretty. I've had better Thai food but I will say it's pretty good for Del Rio. Very wide selection of food. We'll be back read more

If you have ever had Thai or Southeast Asian food, you have probably experienced better than this. My parents are both from Vietnam and I lived in San Francisco my whole life. This place is not anything close to the real thing. Everything is overly greasy or full of MSG. Most of the stuff I have not seen on a Thai menu, so did they just create their own Asian fusion? Or did they just make-up some generic Asian flavors? read more

Servers are prompt, food is always hot and perfect when served. My favorite menu item is the spicy chicken soup. It'd be best to go during buffet hours so that you may experience a wide variety of their menu items. Recommend for anyone who goes through Del Rio read more

It was very good, 4 of us ate there and everyone loved their meals. I had the green curry.

Jitra's lies somewhere between panda express and an authentic Thai restaurant, leaning more closely to the former (I know that is a massive spectrum, but the point is that it tastes far from authentic). My wife and I ordered takeout from here while visiting her brother. The food was good, albeit rather greasy, but offered at a fair price. Not a bad place for a takeout night but not something I would swear by my reputation. Being the only Thai place in town, however, Jitra's is better than nothing. read more

Buffet is terrible, would not recommend eating from the buffet. Food is over cooked and has no flavor, also very little options to choose from. Ordering from the menu is worth it though, menu items are cooked to order and portions are huge. Menu items are the only reason I gave it 3 stars. read more

My favorite and I have traveled all over the world! So tasty and always fresh and hot!!!! Absolutely recommend.

The quality of thai food is low, its more Chinese than thai. Love thai food but not for bad customer service, especially from the ownership. Owner swiped my bank card three times stating it was not accepted but how convenient that I go to my bank statement and there is a triple charge. read more

The service there usually sucks. I've always had to flag down waitresses for refills and all the times that I filched a pitcher of water from the counter no one seemed to notice. That said, their Hot and Sour Soup is THE BEST I've ever had, anywhere, and I've searched for its equal unsuccessfully for over 14 years and across at least 6 other states. The 3 stars I'm giving Jitra are solely because of this. read more

1st impression, is that service is slow. Arrived after 6:30pm and was seated right away, but we waited at least 10 minutes before someone came to take our order. We ordered Mongolian Beef with fried rice, egg drop soup & salad along with an order of Combination Lomein. The best part of the meal was the egg drop soup. The Mongolian Beef is nothing like I have ever experienced. It arrived in a thick weird tasting gravy with very bland fried rice. The salad served was subpar, but the egg drop soup had a great flavor. As far as the Combination Lomein, it is a bit greasy and heavily salted, but it is a decent portion size. All in all this restaurant serves a combination of Chinese, Japanese, & Thai dishes. This restaurant I would have to say is primarily Chinese influenced and subpar Chinese at that. I don't believe that I will be eating at this establishment again. read more

I could not tell you what authentic Thai cuisine is, but what counts for me is the taste. I have always had good, tasty meals there, with my favorite being Kung Pao chicken. As for the MSG question, I am not affected by MSG, but a friend of mine is. He has never complained of it. He has even asked management if they put MSG in the food, to which they said no. He likes to get the curry, which I am not a fan of. read more

Excellent Thai food in an unexpected border town. The wait staff was friendly and the chef even came out to see that we were enjoying our meal. My friend, who frequently visits Thailand, said the food was better than anything he has eaten in Bangkok. I definitely recommend their dinner specials! read more

My table was sticky. My arm, newspaper, drink cup, and napkin stuck to the table. The table LOOKED clean, but everything stuck to it. Eww. I ordered a classic Thai dish. It tasted like bad American style Chinese buffet Chinese food, but with a very slightly thicker and chewier (Thai) style noodle. Not impressed. Nowhere near Thai. I've been to Thailand; this wasn't their food. My shirt sleeve stuck to the table. The server was pleasant enough, but spent far more time conversing with her friends at a nearby table/friend there for takeout/in the kitchen, than our table (of three customers). My cheap plastic plate that held my Thai'ish mostly poor Chinese food stuck to the table when I moved it to get up to pay. Did I mention that my clean LOOKING table was sticky? Bad food, extremely poor cleanliness, nearly non-existent service. Can I select zero stars? read more

Had dinner here. The ambiance is very pleasing. I ordered the sweet and sour tofu, steamed veggies and Thai iced tea. I have been to many very good Thai restaurants and I would hesitate to call this authentic Thai but it was quite good. The tofu was cooked through and firm --a good mouth feel. The sweet and sour sauce was light in both flavor and in texture--not starchy one sometimes finds in sweet and sour. Along with the pineapple in the sauce there were bell peppers onions and other veggies. The steamed veggies were done to perfection--they were cooked but still crispy, and there was much variety: broccoli, baby corn, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, cabbage . . . Even the rice that came with the meal was cooked nicely--not sticky. I regret that I am leaving Del Rio tomorrow--I would have loved to return and try one of the other vegetarian options. read more
