If you like Thai food, you must stop here and eat. It is currently take out only which I needed so it was not a problem for me. It's a very nice establishment so when they do open for seating again I anticipate it being packed. I was a life long Californian & moved to a very tiny town in Mississippi and have not had Thai food in 2.5 years; I was passing through Mandeville yesterday and decided to try and find a Thai restaurant. I am thrilled Ploy's Kitchen Thai Cafe popped up on my search. The woman at the counter - also the cook - was so sweet. I don't eat meat and she said everything could be made meat free and with tofu if I wanted. She even asked if egg was ok before she made anything. They make everything fresh and to order. I knew I wanted Pad Thai since it's a favorite but I wanted something that was a speciality of this restaurant. She recommended the Khao Soi. The Khao Soi is DELICIOUS. I think I found my new favorite Thai dish. Both the Pad Thai (also very delicious, I will get this again too) and Khao Soi were generous portions. Everything was very reasonably priced. I also got the spring rolls. They were so good. The sauce was unique from what I'm used to having in California and I actually liked it so much better. I think it would make a great salad dressing. Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Ploy's Kitchen. It is positively worth going and I told my husband I WILL go out of my way and drive the hour and a half from home to get Thai food from here at least a few times a year. read more

We ordered so many things and all were outstanding. I loved the Thai fried rice and crispy chicken and will make that my #1 Go-to dish from here. The Pad Thai, Spicy Basil Fried Rice, and crab rangoons were all delicious and service was quick and friendly. read more

Delicious food. Take out only. Totally worth not being able to eat in-house. I had the green curry and panang curry.

Most of the time their food is exemplary, fresh, high quality, beautifully prepared. Sadly, the last 2 times (within 2 months) I've gone the food was not freshly prepared. It was clear the noodles and chicken had been sitting around. The entrées were tragically microwaved (even the lime and bean sprouts) until the food was a paste. Noodles broken and in a large, mushy clump. The chicken was so dry it was tough. The lime was total piping hot mush and the bean sprouts had shriveled so much there was nothing left to them but a string. I should've stood there to check but I was in a rush. That was the second time that happened to me. My friend and I could not eat the meals either time they just had to be thrown out along with the money we lost. Very sad all around. I used to love going to Ploy's and told so many people about the place. Now I'm hesitant to ever go back. Sadly, the young lady who took my order was extremely rude on the phone and in person. I'd never experienced an attitude issue there before either. We all have bad days but this has now happened twice. The gentleman was lovely and personable. read more

Good take out food ! Quality And flavorful ! They don't have tables but not an problem if you just need some great tasting Thai food to bring home read more

Best authentic Thai food ever. I lived in Thailand and ate with the locals. Cant beat Ploy's Kitchen.

The food is great, always consistent. People behind the counter are very friendly. Best curry in town!

The yellow curry is so delicious! It came with a salad with the most amazing peanut dressing and if you pay cash, they'll give you a free Thai tea! We eat here at least once a month. read more

Inconsistent hours, hours advertised are not actual hours, call in before hand. This happens consistently. Recommending to order from other restaurants who open on time. read more

This place has the most delightful shrimp pad Thai. A little spicy with jumbo shrimp.

Delicious fresh Thai food minutes from our house! The curry was so delicious I think we could eat it every day! The restaurant was take-out only the day we ate but our food was ready quickly and brought to the car while we waited. read more

Best Thai food on the Northshore hands down!! Everything is always super fresh and authentic

This cafe is take out style, although they do have a few tables for guests to sit and eat at. However, the food is presented in take out containers which my friend and I did not mind. The Karee curry was yum and the sweet roti was perfect. I've missed sweet roti from my past trip to Thailand and was delighted to see it served here! The condensed milk and thin roti taste is a great time. The staff was super sweet and friendly. She gave us complimentary Thai tea which was really lovely. I'd definitely come back and highly recommend this place! They have some authentic dishes here like Khao soi which my friend got a s loved. Give them some love! read more

Ploy's Kitchen Thai Cafe - Thai tea - Thai Near Me - Mandeville, Louisiana

By far the best Thai I've had on the north shore. The Thai iced tea hits on a hot summer day. We got pad see ew and pad Thai, both incredible and packed with flavor. The pad see ew noodles were perfect, a nice light texture with an incredible punch of flavor hitting your palate. The pad Thai also, slaps. Looking forward to going back and trying the curry! Also, the customer service was 10/10. They gave my little nephew an ice cream cone on the house, and overall they were extremely kind. Highly recommended! read more

3 stars because rest room was out of order!! Unbelievable. Food was okay but pad see ew tasted exactly like drunken noodles. Chicken wings were tiny. Long wait for food and they served my meal way before my partner's. This place is small with no ambiance and waitress running around with no assistance made this visit rather stressful and not enjoyable! read more

After reading the reviews, we had high hopes for Ploy's. The roti and crab Rangoon were tasty. Spicy basil with chicken and sautéed veggies was mostly onions, three small bits of bell pepper, barely any basil and no flavor. Pineapple fried rice with shrimp was so bad we ended up throwing it away. The food seemed like something served up at a mall food court. Sorry, but this is not Thai food. read more

5 star takeout!! Simply superb! We decided to try this Thai restaurant tonight for a quiet night in and we were beyond impressed. We ordered crab rangoons which were truly fantastic and also had pad Thai and the khao soi with chicken....wow! The pad Thai was a hit as it usually is but the khao soi was something new to us - creamy and rich coconut cream sauce with something similar to angel hair if you love pasta dishes. The prices were reasonable and we are feeling so fat and happy right now! Filling, flavorful, and a perfect meal to pickup kn busy or low key nights. read more

Excellent Crab Rangoon! Best on Northshore. These are folks from the original Sawasdee. The Basil Chicken is a winner as always. Wish they had a better location. Takes me passing it and then doing a U-turn, thanks to the usual poor traffic design by our Causeway Commission. read more

So excited to find Ploy again after her brief hiatus. Best Thai around--fresh and delicious. We have had everything on the menu (over the years of eating at her establishments) and all are excellent. For a special treat, have the mango with sticky rice! The space is compact and efficient--just enough. Food is served in take out containers but you can eat there at one of the tables or at the bar. It will be good to have Ploy back in our regular rotation again! read more

I tried this restaurant twice, The first time I had takeout and it was Pad Thai and it was good. The next time we ordered to go, drunken noodles, basil fried rice, and pad see ew. All of the dishes were old and did not taste good, not sure if it was a cook or the food was just off but I will be returning to Thai Pepper for my Thai food needs. read more

Our food was delicious and the service was excellent. We will definitely be getting take out from here often.

A hidden gem in the middle of Mandeville. Vegetable fried rice my go too when my craving for rice kicks in

First time, could not have been more pleased, service was prompt and courteous, and the meal was excellent, thank you!

Good Thai food, now. I expect better next year, wonderful foods, beautiful small restaurant, excellent kind, patient, knowledgeable service (( perfect English - saves time, eliminates misunderstanding and mistakes.)) read more

Ordered Pad Thai and some other apps, everything was good. Will be ordering again. Inside was nice and clean. Very friendly staff! read more

We had not found just the right Thai food on the Northshore until Ploy's! We thoroughly enjoyed the crab rangoon, the crispy calamari, and the panang curry. The curry is so flavorful and the vegetables in the sauce are so good, not just filler - the carrots and zucchini were fresh and added much to the dish along with generous pieces of chicken. The roti (flatbread) is delicious, light, and enjoyable to eat with the curry (which was a recommendation I'm glad I followed). And the service is so friendly too. Will be returning often to try more of the menu! read more

I have found that Ploy's Kitchen is the best Thai Food on the Northshore! Swasadee used to be our favorite, but it was sold recently and hasn't been quite the same since. Ploys kitchen has the freshest food and serves the most authentic Thai recipes. You cannot go wrong. Ploy is there to greet you and make sure your order is correct and served hot. I wouldn't pass this by because at this time it is basically take out. Try it you will like it. When it is finally open for dining it could only get better as the food will be served directly to you and mot have to wait to get it home. read more

Oh my gosh!!!! Very delicious food and the lady who owns it was soooo sweet!!! We will definitely be ordering again. Great family business! I had the best tofu pad thai. read more

Truiy fantastic Thai food! I live in California and I have to say this is the best I have ever had. Hidden gem in Old Mandeville.

Ploy's kitchen is really is the best Thai restaurant around here! I'm Thai and all her food tastes so much authentic like back in my hometown! Highly recommend read more

Excellent! Best Thai in the north shore always consistently delicious!! Must try if you like Thai

I ordered the green curry and it was fantastic! The beef was very tender and the vegetables were fresh and crisp. She suggested the Roti to dip in the curry and I'm glad I said yes. my only lament was I only ordered one! read more

My wife and I have been looking for a new Thai place to eat and I do believe we have found it! We both had the Khaosoi and the Roti bread as well as the vegi egg rolls! All was excellent! The orders were to go and came with a salad and complementary Thai tea for first time customers. Give this place a try. We'll be eating here again real soon. read more
