I really have come to enjoy Thai food here in the Dallas area and this was one of the lowest rated experiences I have had. I ordered the red curry which seemed to be lacking veggies, flavor and spice. I know fellow yelpers said this place was hit or miss and it looks like I went on a miss day. Do not think I will try this chain again. Sincerely, Daniel B read more

The food is excellent and tasty! The owners were very very kind. Service was fast, food came out in a reasonable time. Thai boss is definitely a place to try! read more

Thai Box - Thai fried rice! - Thai Near Me - Allen, Texas

See all

Every time I'm in town, I have to come to Thai Box to get some curry. Their red curry with chicken satisfies my want for curry until the next time I'm in town! What makes it more ideal? They have Diet Dr. Pepper! Amazing! read more

A lot of changes here and not all of them are good. I just don't bother coming here anymore, sorry to say :(

This place use to be one of our favorite places. They've decided to pick quantity over quality and the output of their food shows. They're using instant tea, the rice tastes funny, their Thai chicken is just fried chicken in old oil (taste old) . Very disappointing because they had a Cali vibe going on. read more

I ordered from uber eats and was severely disappointed. I asked for shrimp pad thai with NO PEANUTS. NO PEANUTS! When I got it it was covered in peanuts and I couldn't eat it. The corn patties were dry and flavorless. Never again! Disgusting. read more

Our car had some issues to start and we were stuck at the Allen Event Center. Thats when we decided to go have lunch at Thai Box. We were very hungry and tired. We ordered Singapore Noodles (mild) Pad Ke Maw (mild), chicken fried rice (kids box) and chicken needles (kids box). Service was fast and food was well flavored and hot and tasty. We will surely go there again. read more

Lunch was served up fresh, hot, and flavorful ... and with a smile. Great portions and quality for the price. The Sweet Chili Chicken was great, as was the Lo Mein. The pork rolls were ok flavor wise, but cooked to perfect texture. read more

Loooove this place. Have yet to try something that isn't super tasty! Whole staff is very friendly, service is fast, and it comes ready to go with you if you don't have time to stay and eat or just want to save some for later. Ask for the punch card- eat there enough times and you can earn a free entre! Get a lychee boba tea to go!! read more

When you walk in you get a nice whiff of what kind of food you are going to sink your teeth into. They have nice service and a very colorful place. They do have gluten free and vegetarian choices, so is perfect for most people. This is a family friendly place so you can bring over the whole fam. They have a wide variety of food so it doesn't really matter what kind of food your into if it's meat or noodles or rice. The food is not that good, but weirdly enough the wings are actually pretty great. If you like Asian food you will like this read more

One of our favorite thai places. Tried many dishes and they are all great. My favorite is peanut chicken, prefect level of spice. We go here often with friends. Friendly and helpful staff too! read more

I have never been so disappointed in a restaurant. When I first moved to the area, I genuinely liked Thai Box, but over time the food and the service has greatly declined. My visit today was the icing on the cake and I will never go to Thai Box again. My husband and I ordered food at 7pm but didn't get all of our food till 7:45pm. When we complained to one of the employees she gave us a stupid look like she didn't care. The food was poor quality. Our papaya salad was shredded papaya with lime juice and fish sauce. My pad Thai was plain and way too saucy. And my husband's fried rice lacked flavor. I don't expect too much from Thai Box, but for $9 an entree, my money and time is better spent at an authentic Thai restaurant. Shoot, even Panda Express would've been better. Try it if you must, but don't say I didn't tell you so. read more

I wont be back. It was fine, when I waited more than 20 min for my Thai Basil, and I was only a little agitated that it took 5-6 additional minutes to get my green salad and veggie roll. But apparently once my food came out, it was 10 min until 8pm (closing time on Sunday). The staff turned off TV, turned off soda dispenser and locked the doors. The staff did not care there were 10 customers inside who couldn't refill their drinks or even leave when they wanted... their mediocre food isn't worth the wait, $12.50, or crap from the staff. Drive 5 min north and get much better for same/less $$ and get treated like you are appreciated.... read more

I had Pad Thai at Thai Box and it was just OK. It's a little too bland for me compare to other Pad Thai I had before. The portion is a little less than I expect for $7. Since I didn't have a very good impression on my first try, I haven't tried other dishes yet. I might give it another try soon. Good thing about this restaurant is actually its location. It's in the strip mall and very close to Outlet. read more

Food wasn't that good. Service took awhile. I had to ask for my Thai tea once my food had been served. Cashier didn't even say hi or ask what he could do to serve us or take our order. It was awkward. read more

I called in a pickup order for 3 meals. When my boyfriend got there 15 minutes later it was not ready, nor had it been started. They went ahead and started it but when he got home i pulled out the food, and the 3 containers were only about half full. We had ordered these at a spicy level of 4, and they were barely level 2. I'm so disappointed in this place. We will definitely be taking our business elsewhere. If you're going to charge $30 for 3 meals, atleast fill up the containers like you used to. It's mostly rice anyway. read more

We haven't ever had a bad meal here. This is the Thai version of quick and easy Chinese storefront/takeout. Spartan accomodations, place your order at the counter and pick it up when you're called/buzzed, but delicious food. I make a point to stop here any time I'm passing through Allen. The curries are yummy, Pad Thai and other noodle dishes are way better than the many and varied places we order from at work in Plano, and the food is consistent and tasty. Sometimes there's a young guy working the counter that seems pretty dense and you have to repeat yourself several times if phoning in an order, but the food is good enough that we just power through that to get the prize - really good Thai food, on the cheap! read more

The egg rolls were crispy and delicious! I recommend the Yellow Curry and the Orange Chicken. Both Fantastic! Service was fast and friendly! Apparently there is a new owner! Good Job! read more

For fast Thai (or Asian fusion), this is a little gem in the shopping center. If the owners (Nina or Vincent) are working, then ask them for recommendations as they are Thai. If neither of them are there, then the chalk board usually has seasonal or Thai dishes that you may not find at other Thai restaurants. My favorites: Pad Prik King w/ pork Garlic Pork over rice w/ a fried egg Heaven Pork - if I'm not getting the Pad Prik King or Garlic Pork Fried dumplings - I like the sweet soy sauce that comes w/ it Won-ton soup Pho - it's actually pretty decent Thai-style fried chicken wings (not the sweet & spicy style) My g/f's favorites: Panang curry w/ beef Green curry Fried calamari Tom Yum soup Papaya salad Given the layout of the restaurant, voices and sounds echo so it can get mildly loud at times. Also, they seem to have limited staff so if there are a few customers and a few deliveries, then patience is a great virtue. read more

Food is pretty alright. Overpriced though. Chicken lo mein was $8.95 for not as much from a Chinese restaurant and a Diet Coke was $1.75. read more

Thai Box - Thai Near Me - Allen, Texas

Nice little Thai place hidden in Allen. I try to get something different each time and have not been disappointed thus far. They serve quit a bit and serve it in a to go container even if you dine in so it makes things a lot easier when you can eat it all. The food also always comes out piping hot so be careful if dining with little ones. read more

We came here for the first time and ordered a coconut "bubble tea" . The price on the menu stated it was $3.55. When we got the bill, they had charged $4.05 plus tax. When I asked why the discrepancy, the lady at the front stated that they charged us .50 extra bc we added boba. I told her that the "bubble tea" I ordered is assumed that there is "boba" and therefore we should not be charged extra. She stated that they have it written that it's extra for tapioca . It's straight up false advertising and scamming customers. We also ordered a fried rice that was barely enough for one person. Not worth $10. I would never come back here. read more

Every thing was just meh. There wasn't anything that really stood out about the food or the restaurant. It was just ok.

NEVER order from this place! The owner is cheap and doesn't fulfill his promises! This place has the worst customer service ever!! I do not recommend this place! Good American hard earned money should go to places that appreciate their customers! The owner promised an entree due to my order not being fulfilled! I called and asked about the order and he stated that grub hub had refunded me! I called the owner back with grub hub on 3 way and had the man explained what I was refunded for. I was refunded for the $5.00 tip I gave the driver and $1.93 because I only received half of my egg rolls! I spent $32 on this order! I work at a hospital and we frequently order from here! I will tell everyone NEVER to order from this place again! There are better places with better owners to order from! If you can't run a business and have good customer service, you shouldn't be an owner! read more

Very good option for the area and really love it that they are on Uber eats! We got the curry fried rice and green curry. The portions are HUGE for the price, and the flavors were even better the next day. Will order again! read more

I've purchased food from this location 8-10 times in the past 6 months and the service and product are always great. Current customers and future customers, pay no attention to negative reviews as it's common those type of reviews come from negative people with time on their hands. I would like to thank Thai Box, their owner(s) and their employees for serving delicious food to their community! For remaining open during this pandemic and trying times and continuing to deliver a great product. No one is perfect and all you can do is try to make things right and positive in such negative times... Thank you! read more

Bad food, rude staff, super slow they get your order wrong and don't even apologize. Do not bother coming here unless you are absolutely desperate read more

The food was ok, nothing spectacular. Coming in looking at restaurant with plastic containers and utensils we thought it would be a quick dinner. It took almost 40 minutes for our food to come out, they forgot our appetizer. They were not busy at all, only 3 other tables. They moved like slugs the entire time. Next time we will pick another restaurant in the shopping center. read more

Terrible. Order Chicken Fried rice and garlic pork with fried egg. Fried rice tasted sour and pork was deep fried and burnt. And the egg was deep fried but raw in the middle. Two bites of each and trashed the food. Extremely awful. Avoid like the plague. If I could give negative stars, I would. read more

We've been eating here for years, and there have been changes. The competition for Thai food has increased, but Thai Box has remained about the same. That said, my kids love this place. The kids meal portions are big. And I appreciate that the gluten free items are marked. I usually order pad Thai (gluten free) and have been happy even after the recent change in ownership. read more

Great food, great atmosphere and the service was excellent. I had the chicken pad thai and the summer rolls. Both were as good as it gets. Prices were very reasonable and will visit again, very soon. read more

Used to be good. Recently there is no flavor and very poor service. Threw my last meal in the trash and made myself a sandwich. Rice was dry, chicken tasted microwave cooked. read more

Sat for 40 minutes, no food, no answers from the staff. Kitchen was completely understaffed and they refused to fill orders for multiple people waiting at the restaurant while they filled To go orders. Awful experience. read more

The menu had great selections, they also had the popular asian drink "bubble tea", my boyfriend and I ordered a fried calamari, the tom yum noodle soup, hibachi shrimp fried rice, a thai tea with bubbles and a green tea. Food overall was pretty bad, the noodle soup did not taste like the other Thai restaurants we've been to in the past, my Hibachi fried rice was extremely oily that it made me a little sick, also found a good sized piece of egg shell in my food, and I guess we can't be expecting much from a place like this to have good calamari but it tasted like it was fried straight from a frozen bag of calamari, definitely wasn't impressed and didn't finish my food. The teas were alright but bubbles were hard and tasted like they were old. I gave this place 2 stars because it's a great set up and the workers are quite nice, place was kept clean and the menu selection, but food quality is the worst i've had in DFW area as for thai food, would not recommend it. read more

Extremely disappointed in the meal ordered. Ordered Pepper Steak (dinner) to go. Upon arriving home, saw that the meal was less than 1/2 the amount at other places, and even less than an average lunch size portion. To top it off... there were only 3 small slices of beef in the dish. It was so disappointing that I didn't eat the meal, and opted to go to one of our favorite Asian restaurants with my hubby. Needless to say, we will never visit this establishment again. FAR OVERPRICED FOR WHAT YOU GET! read more

Way overrated on Yelp. Typical fast food carryout. Think Panda Express on a very bad day. The Thai Basil Shrimp tasted like a wet dog. Summer rolls were sub-meh. Don't waste your time. read more

Unfortunately, I have to update my review, and it makes me sad. This place used to be amazing when it was under different ownership. Since the new owners took over after that, it started to go downhill for us, and we've stopped going and found a new Thai restaurant in Allen. I will explain: 1. The portion sizes got smaller, almost immediately after the new ownership, which is how I noticed (and why I asked) where the old owner was. (He also used to deliver food personally, so it was noticed when he was no longer the owner.) :( 2. The last few times we ordered, the food was not consistent and sometimes not good at all. Sometimes the veggies were undercooked, sometimes overcooked and mushy. Sometimes the cashews burned. Sometimes the sauce was watered down. We kept thinking, maybe it was just a bad night for the chef, or really busy. But after a while, you can't keep giving excuses and hoping for a better dish next time. 3. The last time we ordered, the order was completely messed up. It was laughable. It's as if the chef didn't know how to make the soup - just a few pieces of tofu, and they forgot the noodles, and just a handful of veggies. It was insulting. Our other order was completely incorrect - they forgot to add the tofu completely. So we called and they apologized and offered to deliver new orders to the house, free of charge. Which was nice and we appreciated it - although when the second orders arrived, one of them was STILL wrong. No cashews on this one at all. But we let it be, and we ate the food - which was just ok, not like the Thai Box we used to know. (In their defense, this was the first night of using a new takeout service, and I think they said the chef was fairly new also, which added to the problems they had that night. This update to my review is not due to this one experience, but also from other disappointing experiences and ended with this last one.) So that was our last attempt. After a few strikes, you just give up, which is what happened here. Maybe the new owners can read this and try to improve things. I sure hope so. read more

we went there because of friends' recommendation. The place was clean, staff was freindly, food was good, however we have 2 suggestions: 1. price should not be same as meat entree, if we order vegetable entree 2. they dont quite manage thier recycl program well, as they cook and place all orders into the plastic containers, which was convenient for customers if we were to pack home, but if customers dont, they just put it into the trash bin, as we saw others did. So it was not an environmental-friendly unless they sort the trash with plastic container at the end when the business hour over. We doubt it. read more

i visited texas for a weekend & i was craving some thai food and decided to go here. the pad thai here was delicious! the food was fresh. i'm so excited to come back here! :) read more

Brand new place off the faux roundabout. This area is blowing up! It's in between Which Wich and Coffee & Cream. It's cute, bright, and clean inside. You walk in and there's a large menu (with pictures!) on a board so you can see what you're getting. Then you take a card and let the cashier know which protein you want. The dishes come in a to-go box with a decent amount of food. We tried the Thai basil chicken, pad woon sen (glass noodles with sauce) with chicken, and the tom yum soup. Everything was tasty especially for the price. The soup was better than I expected, although a bit sweet. This place is perfect for a quick meal and hits the spot. read more
