    really good pineapple rice
    Jamie B.

    We dined here on a Friday night. We were greeted by smiling faces and seated right away. We did not have a reservation, but the later it got, this place got really packed. Plus, the parking is a little cray cray out there too, so I would suggest getting here early or if they do make reservations do that if planning on coming here on a Friday or Saturday night. I have been working my way through the city eating at Thai restaurants and this one is one of top gems in our city. It used to be Mama Thai and unfortunately, I never got to taste her food. But I am here now and am loving Lime Leaf Thai! For apps, I tried my first Tom Yum, I heard they make a good one. Well considering it my first Tom Yum and have nothing to compare it to, I think it was fantastic! I am still thinking about that soupe, especially every time a cold front blow through. My hubby had the won ton soup, that was tasty, but not yum like Tom Yum. Next, I saw the specials and it all looks really good. Especially all the scallops. I ended up not doing any of the specials as difficult of a decision as that was and ordered the pad kee moa. I thoroughly loved the flavors and I made it a little spicier. The manager, Patrick, stopped by to check on us and I told him how torn I was with the specials and he said if I wanted scallops, I could have had them added to my pad kee mao. Very accommodating and very kind. I told him about my Thai Journey and how much fun it has been trying all these restaurants and that I found Thai Leaf to be of the best out here and he was proud to hear that. Keep doing what yall are doing! We will be back!

    Great place to grab Thai food on a Saturday night with friends. Started with an order of spring rolls and roti. Love the red curry sauce that accompanies the roti. Perfect for dipping. Our table ordered a variety of soups and curries. Favorites included the Tom Ka Gai soup. Chicken and coconut milk broth with Thai herbs. So warm and comforting. The red curry can be ordered with tofu, chicken, beef, shrimp or a combo of chicken and shrimp. The red curry sauce, combined with coconut milk, bamboo shoots, carrots, bell peppers, and basil is so delicious. The Khao Soi was so rich. Is it a soup or is it a curry? The coconut curry broth soup is filled with so much flavor. The rich soup comes with sliced chicken, a chicken drumstick, crispy and soft egg noodles, fried onions, mustard greens, and Thai herbs. Love the crunch of the dried noodles mixed with the broth. So unique and so yummy. Add a Thai iced tea. So refreshing. The owner came to check on us multiple times. My friends know him, but they say he also checks on patrons that he doesn't know frequently. A really nice place to have dinner with family or friends.

    Lunch salad
    Kelly A.

    I really enjoyed this Bucktown Thai experience! There's ample seating and a sort of dim, natural light feel. The wait staff and (who I assume to be) the manager or owner were super attentive to our table of 5. We went during lunchtime, and I love that they give a complimentary lunch salad with ginger dressing. Also, the lunch portion entrees were HUGE! I was impressed. I got the pad woon sen, and it was yummy...it was glass noodles in a light, sweet-savory sauce with veggies and protein of your choice. Def a nice switch up from my usual pad Thai or drunken noodles at Thai spots. I highly recommend them for a lunch or dinner visit!

    Tuna Tower

    Loved our lunch today at Lime Leaf. We had the Vegetable Spring Rolls, Fried Calamari, Garlic Broccoli Stir Fry with Beef, Pad Thai, and Drunken Noodle. My lunch was the Tuna Tower that was AMAZING!! Highly recommend and we will be back.

    Beef Thai basil stir-fry
    Jenny B.

    This restaurant is always amazing. I haven't been able to visit in some time and had an opportunity to partake last night so I did a Togo order. I ordered my usual spicy basil beef stir-fry and the tuna tower. Both were delicious (I ordered the spicy basil med-hot and it was packing a punch last night) be careful what you ask for. lol. The Tuna tower was also delicious only complaint I had with the meal was the chips were over fried and greasy compared to normal for the tuna tower. Lastly and the reason I dropped 1 star is because they put the served cold tuna tower in the same bag, on top of the hot stir fry and under the hot rice container. Had I left it like that for my drive home it would have been a disgusting half heated mess. Thankfully before even walking out of the restaurant I opened the bag and took it out. Just wish they would think about packaging to ensure the best quality on arrival for Togo orders. Sorry I forgot to grab photos but my previous photos are still current as to amazing looks and flavor. I will continue to enjoy meals here and highly recommend.

    Mango Sticky Rice

    It was amazing!! The staff was so friendly and it was amazing customer service. I just got mango sticky rice, and it was delicious!! Can't wait to come back

    Won ton soup
    Mima D.

    I need to eradicate the post-Jazz Fest funk. Can't imagine a better combo than jasmine tea, roti and won ton soup. Now only if they added garlic to the roti mmmmmm!

    Khao Soi
    A Well Read Cat Q.

    Lime Leaf Thai Eatery is a super cute establishment. One of the first things I noticed was that they were playing a WNBA game. I really appreciate it that they were supporting women's sports. After a while, they switched over to the soccer game which also is my second love so that was amazing too. The food was a delight. The owner was very attentive. He came over a couple of times to see how we were doing and even did some minute adjustments to the table to make sure that it was comfortable for everyone. The seafood was incredibly fresh. The tofu was really solid and on top of that, quantity of appetizers we ordered plus the quantity of dishes really highlights how quality the menu is because it didn't feel like we were repeating any proteins or any flavor families. Really high-quality Thai food. Definitely something to check out if you're in the Metairie area.

    Pad thai and Khao Soi

    Excellent thai food. One of the best pad thai that I have had in a while- noodles were perfectly cooked, scrambled eggs were soft and flavorful, and there was a nice heat. Khao Soi was scrumptious and so satisfying to chow down on. Very friendly and attentive staff. Will definitely come back regularly.

    Thai Spicy Red Curry w/ Chicken
    Tuhin C.

    Lime Leaf had really great Thai food! They have a lunch special menu which was really great and our server recommended to get the curry. I got red curry with chicken and it was really delicious. They also truly make spicy food and I normally can handle spicy food, but I got Thai Spicy and it was pretty spicy for me so I would recommend being careful of the spice levels. The service was great and food was pretty delicious!

    I've been here a few times and it's always outstanding and very consistent…read more Their hot and sour soup is strange, and unlike any other version I've ever had but it's very good, just not typical. Their moo ping wat and Siloam pork are outstanding. Their stir fry's are outstanding as well, particular the basil, black garlic, and mushroom. Food comes out VERY fast. As in, order your entree after your appetizer comes and you'll still get it before you fast. Staff is very friendly and tries to please. The space is small, you sit almost back to back, but the tables turn quickly thanks to the fast food production so there is a rarely a wait. Great experience. I always enjoy this restaurant.

The inside was a bit small and narrow, but the decorum still looked clean, neat, and gave off traditional Thailand vibes. Service was very friendly and helpful whenever we had questions about the menu. I ordered their "Kao Moo Dang" dish which consists of TukTuk Style BBQ Red Pork, Crispy Pork Belly, Boiled egg with red sesame topping sauce. Serve with rice, green onions, cilantro, cucumber, and dark soy dipping sauce with Jalapeño ($19.99 not including tax). The dish was very flavorful and tasty! I can tell the dish was authentically made as some Thai places kind of "Americanify" some of their dishes. I do wish the portion was a bit bigger since the dish was a bit pricy. As for my drink, I got their "Thai Tea Palmer" which is Thai Tea infused with fresh lemon juice, crystal konjac pearls ($7.99 not including tax). Now this is a drink that I would get again! I didn't think Thai tea and lemon juice would perfectly mix together, but I was proven wrong! My friend and cousin shared their Chicken Pad Zee Ew ($17.99) They said their dishes were good. For dessert, we got their Thai Tea Ice Cream and Coconut Ice Cream ($9.99 each not including tax). Now this was worth the price! The sizing of it was really big and the ice cream had a lot of flavor to it. Texture was stretchy but in a good way. This is a pretty good Thai place to dine in at, as it is considered a "hole in a wall." The only downside for me is how small and cramped it is inside and how small and limited the parking is outside. I also wished the sizing of the entire dishes were bigger for the price, but taste wise everything was perfect for me! I would consider trying it out if I was in the area and craving Thai food!

The restaurant sets off cute date or special event night vibes with its trendy, inviting atmosphere. I love how the bar and main dining area are separated- you can either dine at the tables or go next door to hang out for drinks. We stopped by for a late lunch and were greeted warmly by our sweet waitress Mikayla. She was very helpful and patient with any questions we had with items on the menu. Service was stellar A+++ !!! Now onto the incredible FOOD: Bo Ne - filet mignon steak cubes & eggs (10/10): When an entree comes out sizzling & the aroma wakes you up- you know it has to be AMAZINGLY FLAVORFUL & FANTASTIC! Spread the butter & pate on the toasted bread, then use it to soak up all the INCREDIBLE flavor explosion from the sizzling steak & eggs!!! *VOILA chef's kiss* (side note: I grew up in Houston & had Bo Ne fairly regularly & I honestly think Ba Chi elevates this dish to another realm!!!) Curry clams & fries (10/10): I was worried I wouldn't like it because I wanted mussels, which were unavailable. To my surprise, this dish was another great hit !!! The yellow curry flavors were unique - a bit of heat & spice but not overwhelming. Next time, I would ask for the fries to be served on the side so that they stay crispy! We really wanted to slurp down a gallon of the curry- it really was THAT good! Pro tip: get a side of vermicelli noodles (or rice), mix it with the leftover curry & proceed to gobble it all up if you have room left in your tummy! Spicy lemongrass chicken wings (8/10): These were good-sized wings that packed a little punch with the spice! We enjoyed the spicy lemongrass flavor of the crispy wings (be aware that not everyone has a palate for lemongrass- they have other flavors available for those less adventurous eaters). DRINK: Dragon Slay-Her: what a gorgeous & beautiful drink - the dragon fruit margarita was a specialty cocktail I've never had before and I LOVED IT !!! (10/10) Their espresso martini with ube foam is another popular cocktail & I look forward to trying it on my next visit! TL; DR: If you're wanting to FIRE UP and add some PIZAZZ & all that jazz to your fabulous foodie life, then make lunch/dinner/drink plans for Ba Chi! You'll have the best dining experience there with quality food and top notch service! We LOVEDDD & enjoyed our dining experience today!
