    I was looking for a new to me Thai restaurant so since I was headed up towards Spanish Springs I decided on Simply Thai. They have a lovely if smallish dining area, with thematic decor. I was immediately seated by the pleasant staff. It was early for a Saturday evening so I was not surprised at the few people in the restaurant. I was surprised however at the constant stream of take-out customers coming to pick up their meals. I had difficulty making a selection due to the extensive options on the menu. I settled on the yellow curry with medium heat or spicing. It was quite tasty as evidenced by my pictures. If in the area make sure to check it out.

    Don't let the exterior of the location fool you (tiny gas station shopping center), Simply Thai is adorably decorated inside: fabric table cloths and napkins, pretty umbrellas hanging from the celing, Thai objects throughout the dining area. We've dined at Simply Thai a number of times. Service is ok but they serve delicious food: Pai See Ew (Street Noodles), Avocado Curry (Traditional Yellow Curry), and Pad Thai are among our favorite dishes. They're well-balanced and flavorful plus reasonably-priced.

    We ordered a pickup order for pineapple fried rice, avocado curry w/chicken, and chicken satay. Would recommend all 3. The peanut sauce with the chicken satay is delicious. We get the pineapple fried rice every time we eat here and it never disappoints. We've tried 4-5 of the different curry's and the avocado is our favorite. We've never eaten inside but when I pick up the order it looks pretty authentic and neat from what I've seen.

    The food is very good and flavorful. I got the ginger chicken and it was really good, could have been a little more gingerly to my liking. Clean and a little crowded spot, but cozy for sure.

    This is my go to Thai place, and I haven't been here in over a year. I usually get it to go, but decided to meet a friend there and when I walked in the ambience was very clean, there was quick service in getting seated. This was during lunchtime, so there was a few people in there, but not too busy where you would be concerned about the service. The menu had so much to offer that it took me a little bit of time to go through it all and they even had a lunch menu. I got my usual Thai fried rice and pumpkin curry. I already knew it was gonna be way too much but those are my two favorite things that I was craving and I knew I'd have enough for a meal or two afterwards. The portion size is quite large and definitely would say that is enough for two people. Getting the lunch special you get a a little bit more such as the soup and something else I can't remember. But the prices were right. For a regular meal I would say it's about $15-$17 a plate but you better factor in that you are getting amazing flavor, fresh ingredients, and a good size portion. In comparison to the other Thai place in town, this one is my go to. I had both places within two weeks and have to say simply Thai has more flavor and probably would prefer this one better. This is a great place to go, and I do have to say if you haven't tried their sticky mango rice, it's absolutely amazing! It is a little dessert for around nine or $10 but it's unlike anything you've had before and it's really just so delicious. A good way to end the meal!

    Yum! Stopped by for lunch with my mother and we each tried a lunch special. Plenty of tasty food-and they do it spicy, I asked for a 4 and it was just on the edge of too spicy for me. The space is small but nice. Service is great. I even got some spicy fried rice to go.

    I was excited to try this place as it had good reviews but after eating there, I was very disappointed. The curry puff lacked seasoning and curry taste. The Tom Yum also lacked seasoning and I was expecting it to be more sour, also couldn't taste any lemon grass. The panang curry and peanut sauce for the spring rolls was good though! Another thing that was off putting was the amount of dirty things we were served. Our forks had dried rice on it and we were served "clean" bowls that were dirty and had some sort of sauce on it. Don't think I'll come back.

    This place offers great Thai food! I do like how they have a picture with each selection because I was able to select a delicious meal. The appetizer was very good. Even though they got the wrong order, they were able to make the correction immediately. The service was great and the lady was very nice and helpful. They unfortunately only had one cook working but the food didn't take long for it to come out. The decor is very pleasing and comforting. It made our lunch feel very special and I could have stayed longer to eat. I highly recommend Simply Thai when you're in the mood for Thai food!

    Of course I gave them another chance. Twice in the last several weeks, a friend and I got the pad Thai lunch to go. We both enjoyed it!

    Is this place still in business??? I have tried to call in and order 3 time over the last month. Each time the phone goes immediately to to a fast busy. I've tried calling numerous times with no luck.

    Yes they are still in business. I've had them answer and take an order as well as the online ordering system works great!

We decided to order the combination family meal so everyone could try a variety of dishes. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted like old friends. Even though it had been a while since our last visit, the staff remembered us, which made us feel so welcome. I love the ambiance here. It's quaint, clean, and comfortable, with soft lighting, relaxing background music, and cozy booths that make it a perfect place to enjoy a meal and catch up with friends. We started with soup. I had the hot and sour soup, which is always my favorite, and our friends tried the flower soup, similar to egg drop soup, for the first time. They really enjoyed it! For appetizers, we shared the prawn, egg rolls, and crab Rangoon, and everything was delicious. For our main course, we enjoyed the Szechuan chicken, Hunan chicken, sesame chicken, and the vegetable plate. Every dish arrived hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was outstanding. Our server checked on us often, kept our water glasses full, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We always have a wonderful experience at Chin Chin, and this visit was no exception. Great food, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere keep us coming back. We highly recommend it!

    I was in Reno recently, and while I was walking by the river, I came across The Coconut Downtown…read more I'm so happy I did because this place was such a great find! This is a Thai restaurant, and when we got there they were getting ready to close, but thankfully we were still able to place an order to go. While we waited for our food, we grabbed a drink at the bar. We didn't have to wait too long at all, which was a big plus! We ordered the yellow chicken curry and the chicken Se Ew, and both were SO good! The yellow chicken curry had so much flavor and was absolutely delicious. The Se Ew was also really good and had such a great flavor. I was so happy with everything we got! The people working there were also super sweet and helpful, which made the experience even better. They have seating inside and outside, so it would definitely be a cute place to sit and enjoy your food. I'm already wanting to go back the next time I'm in Reno to try more things on their menu. I would definitely get the yellow chicken curry and Se Ew again because they were that good! If you're in the area, you should definitely go try this place. The food comes out quickly, the staff is amazing, and you won't be disappointed!

This time around was a complete disaster. My wife and I were having Thai Basil Fried rice with varying exceptions. Tofu for my wife. Chicken and no onions for myself. The restaruant on a Sunday evening was pretty empty. Maybe 3 other parties were being served. We waited about 30 minutes for our meal. My wife's meal was ok at best. What I received was not what I ordered. My dish had zero Basil, overcooked Chicken , and no stringbeans . I was thoroughly discussed. I called the waitress over and told her I didn't like my dinner. She said would I like something else. I said angrily no. The waitress said the cook was new and made a mistake. The waitress said she took my meal off the bill. Several minutes later the cook ( not a chef in my book) asked me why I didn't like my dinner. I explained several items missing. He said the waitress put the wrong order in. Apparently both the waitress and the cook threw each other under the bus. It is unfortunate this establishment has gone way downhill. For us we recommend Thai Lotus but they were closed on Sundays.

Thankfully, this cute little restaurant has its own parking area, which was definitely a plus! The restaurant is small and cozy, with only about 10 tables. Service was good by Jab, and the food was okay. I think we're just so used to the cooking style and flavors at Original Thai that we naturally found ourselves comparing the dishes. We tried several different dishes, including the Sampler, Sa-tay, Larb, Chicken Pop, and Tom Yum Gai soup. Everything was decent, but for us, some of the flavors and preparation just didn't compare to what we're accustomed to. Still, it was nice trying something different while we were in the area, and I'm glad we gave it a try!

Thai Chili is a sleeper for sure, as it looks pretty Ho hum from the outside. Once inside, however, it's really homey. It's a little overcrowded with mismatched stuff, but it WORKS!

Everything we had was top notch, with a couple of things being absolutely outstanding. Best of the night were the Curry Puffs, dipped in there insanely excellent peanut sauce (not too sweet and almost like a hint of chili oil) The Springs Rolls were a close second and my Mango Curry dish sparkled. Great Yellow Curry!! My son had a noodle dish that was also incredibly tasty. Have to say it may take me some time, but exploring their very extensive menu will be a pleasure. A big shoutout to Kylie, whose smile lit up the room and was accompanied by her fabulous service. Don't let the nondescript exterior stop you from trying this place.

The Wok is one of those places, and Sichuan/Chongqing food is one of those things that I'm jealous of people who get to experience it for the first time. Here's how to have an epic time at The Wok: Step 1. Get 4 to 8 people total that aren't afraid to try something a little different and maybe slightly spicy (seriously though it's not actually that spicy). If you need help with this step message me, I'd share a meal with some random people if it's at The Wok. Step 2. Flip to the back page of the menu, and order a few things that sound good to the group. Don't waste your time with the American Chinese menu (even though what I've had off of that menu is actually really good too). Make sure to get a decent mix of stuff like appetizers, veggies, noodle, soup, and meat dishes. Also don't be afraid to order multiple times. This gives you more time with the menu, and you can judge what sounds good in the moment. Step 3. Share the food family style with everyone until you are all full. I think at this point I've eaten everything on the Sichuan menu, and can say that if it sounds good to you, it is! Some of my favorite dishes are: Wontons in Chili oil, Bone in chicken wings, Spicy boiled fish fillet, Beef noodle soup, Green beans, Salt and Pepper tofu, Dan dan noodles, and Mapo Tofu. Finally, Janet (the manager) is amazing, and always willing to give a recommendation.
