Always looking to promote and patronize local, searched Yelp for dinner, and decided on Pete's. Talking with the host, this restaurant has been around for a while. Picked their Tumeric Crepe (wasn't very hungry), a new-to-me app dish. A healthy portion of pork and popcorn-size shrimp, bean sprouts, and a rice wine vinegar for drizzling. It was very good. If I'm remembering correctly, tumeric, which has no real taste solo, lends its flavor when mixed with food; unfortunately, I'm not as experienced with the spice as I wish, as I feel like most southeast Asian restaurants seem to add it on the conservative side in the states, but the flavor profile was great. Pad Thai for the parents. They loved it. My mother remarked that the dish had a little more vinegar taste, not a strong peanut flavor, and not spicy; both gave it two thumbs up. I did get the Yellow Curry with tofu to-go to eat the next day. It was very, very good. Spiced enough to warm my mouth, and still taste the flavors. Do I wish it had a few more tofu cubes, yes, but I'm always a protein enthusiast, haha! Their menu was somewhat extensive compared; if I lived in the area, I'd assuredly be back multiple times and try more of their dishes. A great find, thanks Yelp! read more

Very disappointing experience overall. I ordered Vietnamese coffee and the milk tasted sour and old. We also had multiple issues with our order being incorrect twice. We ordered spring rolls with no chicken, but they still came out with chicken. The pho/soup was ordered with no crab meat and no onions, yet it still arrived with both. On top of the horrible service, the food quality and flavor were not good at all -- very bland, maybe 2/5. Unfortunately, I would not recommend or return. read more

I have to understand this is a Thai place, with that the pho broth is really good. Smaller slices of beef but there was just enough. So the food is great. I was sad that a Thai place didn't have fresh birds eye chili's but they did have dry ones ground up. The staff i got to see and interact with was very friendly, polite, and all around amazing she is great. Great job thank you read more

Pete's Thai On 5th - PT1 and coffee w/ sweet condensed milk - Thai Near Me - Sioux City, Iowa

Inviting, yet eclectic interior with ample seating and pleasant "lounge" music. Service was prompt and friendly- although they seemed to be rushing due to a nearby concert. Food was interesting- I've spent months in Thailand and I must say both the tofu pad Thai and the pa nang curry were unlike anything I've had. Noodles were thin in the pad Thai and the curry was more like a soup. read more

Had lunch here and it was decent enough that I came back for dinner. Both meals were to go. At the suggestion of the employee, I ordered the beef Pho. Upon getting to my destination, I opened the bag and started eating the meal. By the time I came close to the bottom, I realized there was only one small piece of meat in the whole meal (in pho, you can't always see to the bottom and I thought I was just missing it with the chopsticks). I went back to the restaurant and told Lily of my experience, which she said should not have happened. I told her I was still hungry since there wasn't anything other than noodles in the meal and asked if she would offer a discount if I ordered something else (trying to give her the opportunity to make it right). She offered me 10% off another menu item, which felt ridiculous. I will not go back and caution anyone ordering take out from here. read more

Happy to find Thai food here. Pete's didn't disappoint. Admittedly I liked my friend's food better (an awesome stir fry with pad Thai sauce) but I tried something new and enjoyed the experience. The dumplings are not quite like Chinese ones. I could have done without so much thick, slimy sauce but that's just me being picky. I forced myself to give it a try and the dumplings were delicious round balls of chicken sausage. Probably won't get it again but appreciate the variety and authenticity. We shared spring rolls and they were very tasty! You get two rolls cut in half in an order. I really liked the sauce. It wasn't a super heavy peanut sauce. read more

Real sad about my crab rangoons tonight but usually top notch soooo maybe it was a bad night. My take on food is don't serve it if you wouldn't eat it. read more

I had an amazing experience at Pete's Thai Restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly kind and attentive. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and the food they serve. The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Everything tasted fresh, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully prepared. The balance of spices and ingredients was spot on, and you can really tell the dishes are made with care and authenticity. Every bite was better than the last. The portions were generous, the presentation was great, and the service was quick without ever feeling rushed. It's the kind of place where you leave already thinking about what you want to order next time. If you're looking for authentic Thai food with great service and a welcoming atmosphere, Pete's Thai is definitely worth visiting. I'll absolutely be coming back and recommending it to friends and family. read more

Bad decision to go there. I was the only one there except for the 1 waitress and 1 cook, neither spoke english. I had never been there before. Ordered a soup. Got my soup and then a small oblong plate with meat and lettuce salad. Confused about this side plate, thought possibly add into my soup which was mostly broth, so put spoonfuls of the meat in my soup. Time to pay and was charged for soup and this side plate that I did not order, did not know what to do with. No one to talk to through this whole deal. I paid Bill and waited for english speaking manager, who had said I will be getting a return on this bill. Was also told the waitress was new. Well I still have not received a return of the charges. It was only like $8, but the whole experience just sucked. Left 1/2 of the soup, so no I will not return there. read more

Have you ever had crab Rangoon with virtually nothing in it? Me either until today. Then my replacement order came with only a microscopic amount more. My husband's dish was a huge plate full of noodles with barely any meat in it at all. Price wise, today's visit gave the impression that they are way more proud of what they are serving than need be. read more

Very clean, modern interior. Impressive, even. Pleasant waiter at lunch, never checked on me even once. I flagged someone down, said I really needed another drink. He apologized but I never saw him again. So thirsty. Nice menu, good prices. Food was excellent and of sufficient quantity. read more

I like this place! Comfortable and friendly service. Food tasted great. We did have an issue with one dish but were kindly given what we ordered. I would go back and try other dishes as they have a huge selection. read more

This place is great, the pad thai is so good! Great food and great service. I also live the vibe of the place.

We ordered two entrees and an appetizer. We were at the restaurant for an hour and half and only got one of the entrees we ordered. The waitress clearly could not remember what table rested what food, and brought out the wrong order to us twice. We ended up having to leave without receiving two thirds of our order because we had tickets to a concert. When we told the waitstaff we had been at the restaurant for an hour an a half and didn't get our food, they replied "sorry, we were slammed." This was a lie--over half the tables in the restaurant were empty. The whole experience was very disappointing. read more

Today i walked into Pete's on a whim since I was across the street visiting a friend. The atmosphere was very welcoming. It has an open layout and plenty of seating space. The service was quick and the servers were very hospitable. One was named Lily, i will be asking for her when I dine in Next. I ordered the shrimp pad Thai and am so pleased with the food that came out. I did order 'to go' so I wasn't able to have them change anything but If you aren't absolutely in Love with Bean sprouts you may ask them to go easy on that part. But otherwise it was very tasty and fresh. I will be returning! read more

My Pad Thai was delicious. Fresh ingredients and full of flavor. I walked in and no one was there so I was very nervous. 5 min into my meal and the place started to fill up. Took a chance cuz it was 2 min walk from the Warrior Hotel. Great hotel too. Cozy beds and reasonable rates Thanks Pete. Worth the no wait time. Fj read more

Fantastic service and the food is amazing. Always welcoming and greeted in the friendliness of a local store.

Amazing flavors, with large portions. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Decorations were a little eclectic, but seating was comfortable and there was a lot of room. I will definitely try here again. read more

Had pad Thai delivered, food tasted really good, presentation was good, ordered #1 spicy, didn't disappoint, really good, if I get back here again I will definitely order again read more

Probably not the beat decision to have the food delivered. Nothing was warm and had to be reheated. Pad Thai was good. The peanut sauce was good too. Didn't care for Thai rice or garlic rice, both just lacked flavor. Id try again, but this time for dine in. read more

Very good. Very spicy. I would highly suggest this as a restaurant to try. Just if you are spice adverse tell the 0 or 1.

Walked in, nice atmosphere, seemed busy. Took a table, made eye contact with server... and sat...and sat...and sat. I can't say the service was bad - there is no service. From the looks at other guests, I was not alone. read more

Really great food in an area where there really aren't a lot of options. I was in town for work and ended up eating there 5 times in a week. The food is just that good and the people are just that nice. It is often just the one guy working the floor, but he's super nice and will get to you as soon as he is finished being super nice to the other guests. read more

Tonight I tried this restaurant. It was the worst meal ever. I ordered the shrimp pad Thai. It had no flavor. Tasted like it was 5 days old. The shrimp were hard and over cooked. The fried spring rolls were burnt and the dipping sauce was watered down. I threw the meal out! read more

Really good Thai food. We were visiting the area and gave it a try. Fresh ingredients, not greasy, delicious food!

I'm so glad that Pete is back and that the restaurant is officially open. I kicked off my exploration of the menu with Spicy Wok Noodle (with tofu). I look forward to working my way through the rest of the vegetarian menu. read more

Food was okay, quick and friendly service. The appetizer was the best of what we ordered. The curry was watery and lacking that rich curry flavor. read more

We had a great experience,service is fast ans food was very tasty and very spicy i recommend you try it if you like thai food

My coworker and I stopped at Pete's Thai on 5th since we were all staying at The Warrior Autograph hotel. The restaurant was one block over which was walking distance from our hotel. The menu has many choices and our waiter answered all of our questions. If he wasn't sure of something he went to check with the kitchen. Our food was delicious! I will come back to this restaurant again if/when I'm in town. read more

Very delicious and very clean. I love their sticky rice and crab Rangoon. I've also enjoyed the yellow curry chicken quite a bit.

Pete's Thai is hands down one of the best restaurants in Sioux City! Pete has a wonderful large menu with tons to choose from. Diamond Thai his previous restaurant was a Sioux City Landmark! His food just makes me happy! For appetizers our favorites are Fresh Spring Rolls and Shrimp In a blanket. My Dad really enjoyed the huge serving of Pho and I enjoyed the vegetable medley with shrimp. read more

We wanted some real food for takeout on our road trip, and this turned out to be a good choice. It was really easy to get to off of the interstate, and the food was tasty. We got the pumpkin curry, which was unique, but good, and the pineapple fried rice, but we added some extra veggies so it wouldn't be so plain. The pineapple was SO good and had us wishing there was more in it. The cook did get a little heavy handed with the black pepper, though. Not the best Thai we've ever had, but solid all around and at a reasonable price. read more

Soo good. Have great vegan/vegetarian options that are hard to find in this city. They're always so friendly
