    Thai curry noodle soup with shrimp (Excellent) and Jasmine tea.
    Joseph H.

    I stopped by for late lunch/early dinner on Saturday, and boy am I glad that I did. Wow. I absolutely loved the Thai Curry Noodle with Shrimp. Excellent flavor and close to perfect. I also enjoyed greatly the steamed dumplings. The food exceeded my expectations, for sure. The service was "so so". I'll be back, and I highly recommend if you like good Thai curry.

    First off the location is great-on the corner and easily accessible. Second-the food-OMG! I did not know what I was missing out on with crab Rangoon-I had only ever had the rubbery, no crab in sight Rangoon. THIS was anything but! It is an absolute work of art, arranged beautifully and cooked to perfection. It was so light, crispy and actually had crab! You could SEE it AND taste it! Hands down-best Crab Rangoon on the planet! The edges are crispy and perfect for dipping in the sauce that it comes with-delish! The main entrees were equally as good-my husband said he dreamed of his dish later. Everything came out super hot, fresh and the best Thai we have ever had. The portions were giant, was able to get two meals out of one although I wanted to devour the entire thing all at once. The restaurant itself was super cute, it's an old house remodeled and I love the ambiance!

    The absolute BEST thai food in Bloomington!! Pad Puk is my go-to order at any thai restaurant, and My Thai's was the most delicious I've ever had! The presentation was adorable (look at that heart!) and the service was awesome. They were fast and patient with our large group! Highly recommend if you're in the area :)

    Curry Noodle w/Pork
    Brooke R.

    Delicious! Chicken was thinly sliced & very tender. Loved the wide rice noodles for something a little different. Sauce was perfect. Noodles weren't drowning in sauce, but there was plenty of it. My husband had the curry with pork and said it was very good. We will definitely be back for more.

    Very good appetizers, served quickly and when weather permits the outside provides a great spot to eat and drink a good cold beer. The fried rice is very good.

    A-1. Crispy Thai Spring Roll
    Hannah K.

    I got seated right away. I sat on the patio and it had a beautiful ambiance. Good music playing & a lot of outdoor seating. The service was quick & they workers were very friendly. I got the spring rolls as an appetizer and the drunken noodles with pork. It was delicious. I wish I was hungrier because I wanted to eat more! I came by myself but this would also be a perfect date night spot. They also have a few tables that seat 6 people.

    25. Yellow Curry
    Sophie O.

    Yellow Curry 6.8/10 (yellow curry paste with white onions, potatoes, and carrots in coconut milk) trying to step out of my comfort zone and not get Pad Thai. This smelled delicious and I was very excited to try. It was much thinner than I thought, I was expecting more of a buttered chicken consistency. The potatoes were kinda odd to eat with rice and they were massive (carrots massive too). Semi successful first experience, I'd probably not get this one again but I would definitely try a different kind.

    L-16. DRUNKEN MAN FRIED RICE
    Katie E.

    First time guest. Myself and a guest came in for lunch. With campus closing for winter break the restaurant was extremely slow. As the only guests I expected the service to be quick. Unfortunately not the case. The food was reasonably priced and the portions were large. I would come back but it it isn't my favorite Thai in Bloomington.

    A-8. Samplers
    John B.

    I have been coming to this place since I was a freshman here at IU Bloomington and have to say it is well worth the try. The food is very reasonable price and the staff is always friendly and accommodating. Definitely try the appetizer samplers. All the curry's are very good and made with fresh vegetables.

    Excellent Thai restaurant with high marks for food, service, and atmosphere…read more I've tried the Thai fish cakes, sweet and sour saute, pad bus sa ra com, mango sticky rice, and Thai iced tea and coffee. The savoury dishes were all super flavourful, cooked well, and generously portioned. Maybe this has something to do with the dishes I got, but I think the flavours here are generally more intense than the other Thai restaurants I've tried in Bloomington, and their spice levels might be a little higher. I've been somewhat underwhelmed by level 3 (out of 5) at other places, so I tried level 4 the first time I ordered here, and it was a little too hot, so I went back to level 3 the next time, and it was just right. The Thai tea and coffee were both very good, especially the coffee. It almost tasted chocolatey. The service is consistently on top of it. I was there on Valentine's Day, and they were slammed but had enough staff on the floor for it; the food was quick as usual and everyone was still very friendly. I also love the atmosphere here. The building is one of the converted houses on 4th St, and there are different dining rooms, some with lots of windows, all filled with interesting decor, and there's also a very nice patio during the warmer seasons. The only problem here is, unless there's a back entrance I don't know about, I don't think the building is wheelchair accessible; you have to go up a few stairs to get to the main entrance.

    Party of six, four adults (there is a children's menu). We had a variety of dishes, including Pad…read moreThai, Massaman Curry, Pad Woon Sen, and appetizers like fish cakes, spring rolls, and their crab rangoons. All were great, fresh ingredients, served in concert, and quickly, too. This was a family meal, and all were delighted, including the children with chicken fingers and fries. We're trying to expand their horizons, but picky eaters are tough. The appetizers were especially good, and each has their own different sauce. My order was well-spiced, and there was enough taken home for a second delicious meal. This is perhaps the best and most consistent Thai food in Bloomington. There are rivals to this high throne, and we try them, too, but this is our go-to for no-compromise Thai, every order consistently great.

    Really liked it! I really chose this place for dinner because I wanted bubble tea, and the bubble…read moretea was good but the food was the highlight. The menu is very vegetarian-friendly since you can choose tofu as a protein for most entrees, and even vegan-friendly since they have nondairy milk options for drinks and some entrees can be easily customized to be vegan (order with tofu/no meat and remove egg). I got a matcha latte with brown sugar crystal boba and the Pattaya pineapple rice. Matcha latte: The matcha was decent - it had the flavour of matcha latte mix rather than pure matcha, but it wasn't unpleasant, and it was strong. I like the brown sugar crystal boba as a topping - the flavour is very similar to brown sugar tapioca boba, but it doesn't sit as heavy. It's a different kind of chewy than tapioca, but it's close enough that it basically gives the same kind of experience as regular tapioca boba in a drink. Pattaya pineapple rice: Really good! The rice was well-seasoned and the pieces of juicy pineapple and raisins added some sweetness that contrasted very nicely with the curry-spiced rice. They have 5 spice levels (mild, medium, hot, extra hot, Thai hot). I usually went for medium heat when I lived on the west coast, but since this is the Midwest, I tried "hot" and found it had a bit of a kick, but the heat was still secondary to the other flavours, so it was the right choice for me. Very good service. The waiter was very friendly and attentive without hovering - he came by at just the right times. My drink and food came out not too long after I ordered. The place is nice. Like the other restaurants in this area, it's situated in a small house-like building. The atmosphere feels down-to-earth. There were lots of things on the menu that caught my interest, so I'll definitely be back!

    One of Bloomington's best-known restaurants, and thankfully even on a Game Day we didn't have to…read morewait for a table. Food came out fast too. They are of course famous for the dumplings, and everything on the dumpling sampler was excellent. The momos were every bit as good as I've had in Toronto's Little Tibet, with a tender skin and a lot of flavor. They also had some more plump dumplings with cabbage and potato, which are a lot like pierogi! All very satisfying. The fried rice was well-made and appropriately spiced for a 2/5. You could taste the oil in each grain, and the beef was cooked nicely. My only complaint would be that I think they used frozen green beans.

    I really like Little Tibet! I have tried all sorts of stuff from the menu and I think the dumplings…read moreand the Thai are the best choices. Their vegetarian dumplings are all tasty but each is a little different. I've only tried the steamed so far because I really like the tenderness of the steamed version. The dumplings come with soy sauce and chili sauce for dipping, which are not optional - you need to dip them for the best experience. The chili sauce isn't too hot, so you can and should be generous with it. The Tibetan tea is interesting - it's a smooth milk tea, kind of like a milder version of Indian chai, but it does have its own unique taste that I can't totally put my finger. Other drinks are all good too, thought some aren't exactly as you might expect. The iced Indian tea is a little milky for my taste but the hot version is stronger. The Thai iced coffee is great but it's less sweet than the usual ones (not inherently good or bad, just depends on your preference). The mango lassi tasted closer to mango juice, but it was really refreshing. All of the food is kind of different from the usual restaurant style food from the various cuisines represented on the menu; it feels more like home cooking, so more subtle flavours, less salty and a little lighter, but very wholesome and hearty. The hotter spice level comes from a chili paste they add, and I recommend getting at least a level 2 (level 1 is no spice), because the chili paste also flavours the dish and level 2 is still pretty mild. The people are very kind and I love the calming atmosphere. I have seen them get busy in the evening on weekends, but usually you can count on being able to get a table.

I showed up about 50 minutes after ordering and my food was hot and ready on arrival. The host who greeted me and brought out my order was very friendly. While I was waiting for him to get my food from the back, another staff member also came by to check that I was being helped. I ordered the fried eggplant stir-fry with tofu and the coconut ice cream. The stir-fry tasted good, but I selected spice level 3 "hot" (and the takeout container had a "3" written on it so I know they got it), yet there was not a hint of spice in the dish, not even a single chili flake. I don't know if they messed up and forgot to add the spice or what, but I was kind of let down. Taking the heat level out of the equation, it would rate it about average for American Thai food. I wasn't really impressed by the dish, but I enjoyed it (spicy is nice but not a must-have for me if there are other flavours). I liked the coconut ice cream dessert. The included banana spring rolls were helpfully packaged in foil separate from the ice cream, so I warmed them up in my oven a little, and they were very good warm. I'm pretty sure that what the menu calls "homemade coconut ice cream" was actually vanilla bean ice cream with shredded coconut on top. Which is still delicious but not what is written on the menu. Based on my single visit, I don't think this is close to the best Thai in Bloomington, but it's alright, and I might come here again because it's closer to home than the other places I like. I might have even given the food 4 stars if it had just been described differently on the menu, but the lack of spice in a dish that was supposed to be made hot plus the "homemade coconut ice cream" not being that left a little bit of a bad impression.

They have a pretty extensive menu of both Thai and Japanese-style food…read more The design of the restaurant is beautiful yet subtle with artwork, fountains, and soothing colours. There are two dining rooms, and I think one is meant to be in a more Thai style while the other one houses the sushi bar, but both the Thai and sushi menus can be ordered in either room. I got a spider supreme roll, a Thai iced tea, and green tea mochi ice cream. The entree order included a complimentary soup. The soup was kind of odd but good. It had the broth for Japanese clear soup but contained diced carrots, peas, and corn (like the mixed vegetables you can get in the freezer at the store) plus the usual green onion. Again, it tasted fine but not like anything I've seen passed off as Japanese or Thai before. Spider supreme roll was pretty good. Maybe a little too saucy. The wasabi had kind of an odd blue tint but tasted alright (not great quality but not like the super cheap stuff), but that's minor. Decent Thai tea. The mochi ice cream itself was good, but I thought it was overdressed. I was skeptical of both chocolate and strawberry sauce with green tea, but it was actually a pretty good combination. However, the two sauces plus the whipped cream plus the sprinkles was just too many different flavours and textures, which took away from the simple mochi ice cream. It might've worked better with the strawberry or vanilla flavours to keep things simpler. The service was okay. The waiters were polite but a little inattentive. They seemed busy though. It wasn't bad food, but my impression is that this is not very authentic execution of sushi. I haven't had much sushi in Bloomington yet so I'm not sure how it compares to other sushi spots.

I didn't believe them until I tried it myself, almost as if the chicken had been reheated in sauce without frying first. The Mongolian beef had 4 tiny slices of beef, we laughed looking at the entire onion used to replace the meat. Our rangoons had zero filling, not even lack of seafood but almost like they had exploded in the fryer. If it had been any other day, we would have asked for a refund, but it was Christmas Day and we are traveling without the time/ energy to fix this. It was so bad that we ordered pizza and tossed more than half of the food. The hot and sour soup was outstanding, spicy and full of crunchy veggies and tofu. Every other item in our order was inedible. My three stars reflect the excellent service I received while placing and picking up the order, the soup was also very good. Clearly a business that treats their customers well, but wow that was the worst $80 I've ever spent on food.
