5 stars? Absolutely! Listen -- in a town that's an hour from here, two hours from there, finding great food that's not cooked at home for a fair price is rare. This place nails it. Mom and Dad are in the back cooking, the college-aged son jumps in when he can -- this is the American dream on display. The family is incredibly welcoming and always recommending new dishes (I come here a lot, so I trust their picks). The beef jerky (as we Americans call it) is a Thai staple appetizer -- don't sleep on it. And if you've never tried curry, don't be scared of this creamy coconut soup with perfectly cooked chicken. My go-to recommendation? Panang curry -- it's a game-changer. Inside, there's a TV usually showing sports -- a small touch that makes the spot feel casual and homey. I've been to 100+ Thai restaurants, and not many do that. Small place, huge flavors, and a family running it with pride. This one's a gem. read more

This was recommended to me by some coworkers and I called ahead and the person was very friendly. They had my order ready within 20 minutes and I was impressed! I ordered the Pad See Ew and it wasn't quite as spicy as I liked but other than that, the food was fresh and vibrant! read more

Tha da Petch - Pad see ew - Thai Near Me - Leesville, Louisiana

A friend recommended Tha Da Petch so we decided to give it a try for dinner. I ordered the pad thai, and it had a great balance of sweet, tangy and savory flavors with perfectly cooked noodles. We also shared a curry that was rich, fragrant, and paired well with steamed rice. Every dish tasted freshly made, and the meal was satisfying from start to finish. read more

Pricey $$$ Very Tasty and the only restaurant in Leesville that reminds me of the a bigger city menu. The food here is meticulously put together and it taste healthy, and delicious. There's a bit of regalness here. You feel like you're receiving a more distinguished meal. Definitely you are getting more than you're paying for. It's a fair trade for quality~ read more

Amazing Thai Food! I've been here a good amount of times, and the food is consistently delicious! I almost always get the "Beef Pad See Ew," Medium Spicy, and it comes out great every time. The restaurant is owned and ran by a Thai Family. The quality of service and delicious food are truly a blessing for the Fort Polk area. The restaurant has a casual and peaceful vibe. Don't forget to add Thai Tea to your order, it's amazing as well! read more

This has become my sons favorite restaurant. When my husband was stationed at Polk, we would go to Thad a petch and loved it so much! We introduced it to our son later and now it's his favorite place. My husband always gets the Pad Thai. We have tried Pad Thai at many many other restaurants and this one is our favorite. The food is seasoned based on spice level you like. I love mine Hot and they do such a good job! Today I tried the Tom Yum soup and the red curry. Both were amazing but the Tom Yum soup was probably my favorite thing I've had there. It was mad with flavorful ingredients unlike anything I've ever had. The red curry was spicy and had lots of fresh yummy vegetables. We will of course be back but today really stood out because I decided to try something new. read more

I have been looking for a thai place that does Pad Sew Ewe to rival the best I have had in Chicago. This might be the one. I found myself after eating a whole plate, wanting to order another to go.

If you are looking for good authentic Thai food look no further. I drive by this place daily on my way to work but never stopped by because it looks a little beat up from the outside but after reading all the positive reviews on Yelp and hearing all the raves about this place from local people around town I knew I had to check this place out and I'm so glad I did. This is a family run husband and wife team and their kids also help out as well. It's outdated on the inside but the food is very good and the owners are friendly. My fiancé and I ordered the vegetarian curry puffs and the vegetarian eggrolls as apps. Eggrolls were meh, not impressive a little bland but the curry puffs were flavorful and had a nice kick to it. For entrees he ordered the seafood pad Thai and I had the yellow curry with tofu. We both enjoyed our meals. Both entrees were flavorful with a good kick and portion sizes were big. There are not many places with vegetarian options in leesville and tha da petch has plenty of them. There's something here for everyone whether you're a meat lover, seafood lover, vegetarian. Definitely will be coming back soon. read more

My uncle and I were in town, we have family here, and wanted to check this spot out. Leesville doesn't have a ton of restaurant options and the ones they do have are ehhh. I've only really eaten at Starlite Grill and I love that place; but we wanted to venture out this visit. This place is in the strip as a motel. When you walk in; it's like any other family owned Asian restaurant. The man who waited on us I assume owns the place. He was very friendly and attentive. This place has a huge party room in the back where the bathrooms are. I hope they get busy for events. The menu is very large, and being the only Thai restaurant in the area I like that they have lots to offer. The beef jerky was good, tad salty than I normally like it, but still good. The seafood salad I ordered was okay. Huge size, decent amount of seafood, but the sauce wasn't giving me normal Thai vibes when it came to flavor. It was giving me more like Mexican shrimp cocktail sauce vibes. Very tomato/ketchup taste than the normal Thai flavors I'm used to. I ordered the number 48. PAD PED TA-LAY, it's a seafood combination stir fry. It was delicious! I got the salad and this dish Thai hot and well this one was the only one that delivered the heat. The flavors were amazing and it just made my belly happy! We also ordered the Thai Teas which were good, but a tad over sugared if that's possible. I definitely will keep this on my list when I come back to Leesville. read more

The Tom Lum soup smells great from the next table. Good service, and good parking. read more

I absolutely love Thai food. The customer service you get from Sammi and his family is five star. I moved back after being gone for nine years and Sammi remembered me like it was yesterday. When you sit down to eat, you get the dishes in traditional pottery. I love it. read more

I've been eating here for years. This is the best restaurant in leesville period. Strictly Thai, all freshly made.

What an amazing restaurant !!!! Their red curry is to die for ! Don't forget to order your sticky rice too! Their spring rolls are phenomenal as well as well as their Thai coffee ! Highly recommended ! read more

If you like spicy Thai food, you'll love this place. The food is splendid, service is great, although there is some language gap. The atmosphere is quaint, small. A bit more sparse than cozy. But the food is great. read more

Thurs. 7-28-2022 My husband and I decided to have lunch at this restaurant because of the good reviews. We ordered the Shrimp in a Blanket appetizer. I ordered Pad Thai with beef, chicken and pork. My husband ordered pork See Wu. All three of our orders were very well made and so good. We also ordered iced tea and lemonade. As we were getting ready to leave we asked if we could each have a to go cup of our drinks. The young man said we would have to pay another $2.75 for each of our to go drinks. We had just spent a little more than $65.00 for an appetizer, 2 entrees, 2 drinks, tax and a $10.00 tip for lunch. This is just giving you a heads up if you want a to go drink after buying a drink. read more

Great food, staff is very nice food was fast to come, pictures of Thailand which is great and beautiful, would recommend for dinner

I've been to sooo many Thai restaurants in the Dallas metro and never found Thai food as good as This restaurant. Very flavorful with a Wide variety of menu options. I definitely will return. I like the fact that their Spicy dishes are really spicy. And you can order Medium spice level if you want. I had the Pad Him Ma Pan w beef spicy and the spring rolls with sweet and sour sauce for the appetizer. All Excellent!! read more

Tha da Petch - Taro Egg Rolls ( I call them Spring Rolls ) - Thai Near Me - Leesville, Louisiana

I had high hopes for this place. I ordered the green curry with chicken and medium heat. I was extremely disappointed. I paid $14.95 for this curry that doesn't even come with rice. The flavor was all off, it definitely had heat, which I appreciate but that was it. It was hot and salty, there was hardly any coconut milk flavor and it wasn't creamy like other curries are. I ordered this to go and made white rice at home since it's cheaper than paying $2 extra for a small thing of rice. I also ended up picking out the chicken because it was absolutely horrible. Honestly I will not come back, they seem like great people and I love supporting local businesses, which is the only reason why I didn't give it a 1 star but it wasn't good at all. read more

Great Thai spot in town- friendly staff. Food and portion was a good amount. Will come back

Good food but the service was terrible. Young kid was my server, took my order and left without getting my drink or even letting me know that he was stepping out. They brought me out the wrong food (plain not spicy) I said it has no spice cooked into it and if I could get a discount. The young kid had a shitty attitude the entire time. I told him I just wanted a discount on the main food not the 20$ in apps I ordered. He told me it's not his business and I can't be scamming him. Really shitty experience overall. Im sure all the older gentlemen there are much nicer and understanding the youngin just had a really bad attitude the entire time. Food was great I do recommend eating there but I had a really disappointing experience. read more

Amazing Pad Thai I think the best I've had anywhere. fresh and fried spring rolls and really good Thai iced tea. Good service and cozy surroundings. This is my fourth time dining here and though there are some really good restaurants in town, I have a hard time not going here when I'm in town. read more

The saving grace of Leesville. Surrounded by rust and rubble and at best edible cuisine, lies a gem in this humid fishbowl which is Tha Da Patch. I have never been one for Thai food until I had a taste of the multiple entrees from this restaurant. From crispy sweet duck to green curry this place will satisfy all your cravings and make your stomach very happy. Staff is on point and friendly, always attentive and refills are very quick. Wait time for your entree or entrees are minimal and food will leave you ready for more. If you haven't tried this place, you ought to. Pretty much the only place you have, not just for Thai, but pretty much just for food in general. Leesville is pretty barren. read more

We found this Thai gem in Leesville thanks to fellow Yelpers. We had the beef larb- it's served salad style here with plenty of fresh cilantro. Deliciously fragrant and spicy. Yum! Red curry chicken rounded out our lunch. Featured some pineapple, carrots, peanuts and potato. Would definitely order again. Well cooked and served. This mom and pop restaurant is spotlessly clean. Service is friendly and quick! Terrific Thai food was an unexpected find in this small town. read more

Great food and good service....what more could you ask for? My husband and I stopped to dine here based on the help reviews and it did not disappoint! My husband said the Thai tea was one of his top three and was very happy to report that it was not too sweet. We asked the owner what he recommended for beef and duck options since we had never been there before and his recommendations were on point! I got the #21 with beef and my husband got the #54. Both dishes were fantastic and my husband is still raving about the duck as we drive back to our hotel. The duck was perfectly cooked - crispy, yet succulent and full of flavor. He gave it a 9.5/10, which is the highest he's ever given a duck dish. My #21 (beef with cashew nuts) was also a home run. This small hole in the wall restaurant beats out any Thai restaurant we've been to in Houston. We would gladly eat here again! read more

Customer service-okay the guy is all about your money in his pocket. He wasn't rude but he made it a priority to tell you about all these curve ball fees. The woman who was normally there was perfect. Food-good. I like the food, but lately the portions have been smaller and the prices are rising. Idk if they are having financial problems or resource issues, but some prices do not match the size. Overall-somewhat good. If you are not into traveling and you do not know how to make thai food, then you should visit this place. However if you can make a drive anywhere else, I'd recommend you do so. read more

New to area, looked online on google, yelp and all said it was open till 9 or 930. Showed up at 826pm and as I was opening the door a kid rushed door to lock it. Another older guy asked if I was picking up or trying to order. I said wanted to order a to go order. He said they were closed. I pointed out his front door sign saying open till 9pm. M-sun and he said the sign and website was wrong. So I just wasted about 45min worth of driving. Prolly won't be back. read more

Was on a road trip and searched for nearby places to eat. This had decent reviews so we stopped in. The owners were very friendly. We had Fresh Spring Rolls that were decent. I cant remember what chicken noodle dish I ordered but I asked for it extra spicy. The dish was sweet (not a fan) with little spice. My husband enjoyed his rice dish. If we are ever in the area again, we would stop by for another try. read more
