The server was lovely, bringing us complimentary champagne to ring in the new year. Both our dishes were well executed -- green curry, cashew stir fry with pork -- along with the fresh spring rolls appetizers. The space is lovely with huge art pieces and slow jazz in the background. read more

Biggest spring rolls I've ever seen! And they were GOOD. Went here with my parents and we all got something different but all of it was delicious. And the portions were sizeable, I had enough for lunch and dinner from the same meal! read more

I came here with my family for a late dinner on Saturday. It was all of our first time there. It took about 5-10mins for our waiter to bring us our menu after seating us. He was the only server working though, and there were 2 tables waiting to cash out. Service was overall good though. I ordered the Grouper Pad Char, which was DELICIOUS!! I usually prefer fish grilled/blackened. This one was breaded & deep fried, but the breading was super crunchy & very well-seasoned!! The sauce was awesome (medium spice), and it had lots of veggies. My husband ordered the pineapple fried rice, which was really good! He ordered it with hot spice level, which was the perfect combination that balanced out the spicy, sweet & salty flavors. My mom had cashew nut stir fry w/ pork, which she loved. The sauce on it was thinner than the sauces used at other Thai restaurants so I didn't like it as much, but it was still good. My mother-in-law ordered Chicken Pad Sew Ew. I was disappointed w/ it because the sauce was also a lot thinner & not the same flavor as what I'm used to. She loved it, but that was her first time having that dish. Overall, this is a good Thai restaurant. I would come here again if I'm at this area. read more

So we order Thai chilli pepper through Grubhub and picked up our order. The order was ready promptly, which was great, but in my order of pad Thai I specifically wrote in special instructions "no bean sprouts" and to my surprise, when I got home and opened up my dish, there were so many bean sprouts that I spent most of the night trying to pick them out and I ended up putting them in my boyfriends spicy fried rice (that's why there are so many pictured). Definitely disappointed that they didn't read the instructions. Additionally, I wish they different to-go containers. It's one of those 3-sectioned foam containers so it looks like more food than it is and also due to the aluminum foil on the bottom, when I eat it with my fork, I would scrape off pieces of aluminum foil with my dish and accidentally eat it. If they switched to a plastic container it would be a lot better. The thing that made up for all the mistakes and the presentation was the flavor. I really enjoyed the sauce of the pad Thai, although I wished it were spicier (I ordered Thai hot), but that's subjective. The spicy fried rice was also delicious and had all the flavor elements needed. I would definitely order from them again, I would probably just order in however to avoid any issues. read more

We ordered from Uber Eats to try a new local Thai restaurant. We ordered Crab Rangoons, Thai Wings, Lemongrass Chicken and Pumpkin Curry Shrimp. Everything was delicious and fresh. The only thing I would change is that the description listed everything in the curry sauce. I could've done without the pineapple chunks since the pumpkin already has a sweetness , but that's a matter of preference. I can't wait to try other items on the menu. read more

Honestly surprised at the average rating of Thai Chilli Pepper. Ordered here based on the yelp reviews. Scheduled a delivery on doordash and food arrived almost an hour late and cold. Things happen which is understandable but that does not excuse the poor execution of the food. Panang curry: no spice even though I ordered Thai hot and a dish that usually has a beautiful depth of flavor was presented bland and seasonless. Not to mention the overall scarcity of ingredients despite having paid extra for meat. Wings: it doesn't take a Gordon Ramsey palate to detect overcooked, dry, and likely left out wings tossed in sauce to salvage. Like the last couple wings left out under the warming tray at a two bit buffet that nobody wants... It appears that this joint skimps out on ingredients and time despite the price tag. Will not be ordering again. Do yourself a favor and take your money elsewhere like Tuk Tuk Thai. Flavor and overall product seems secondary to this establishment. read more

Yummy food, nice atmosphere, and great service- we had Aom as our server and she was very kind and helpful!

First time here and loved everything, our appetizers were out quick and were nice and hot. Got the yellow curry and they gave a great portion and it was delicious, our server was super nice as well and she explained everything to us before we ordered. read more

I'd give this place an extra star if I could. The food taste is Superb. If you guys want the best duck ever this is the place. I don't even like duck. This is five star. So worth the money going here. It's a little spicy but not super spicy. You can actually taste the food not just the heat. Pineapple cucumbers onions everything stood together well. The duck sauce was amazing. The soup was a seafood soup that was well done. As a matter of fact the soup is what impressed me first! Please support these people if you are in the mood for great Thai food. This was a happy accident. I've eaten plenty of Thai places and this one tops them all just with the soup and duck. Now I'm curious to see how their Pad Thai holds up. It is a smaller restaurant and I went when it was raining so there wasn't anyone in the restaurant. Looks clean and plays some music in the background that goes with the theme of this place. I'm wanting to bring my vegetarian friend here to see what she thinks of it. I know I'm all about the duck but they did have some vegetarian options and so I'm curious to what she thinks. The soup i had is the hot one. Forgot to take pictures before I ate it. Opps. read more

amazing food. very friendly staff. We will definitely be coming back here. I did not know that we had this gem in Florida

The food was good but I am confused by the total amount I was charged + they charge extra for paying with card. I ordered a drink (6.50 on their website) and fried rice (17.95 with my choice of protein on their website) over the phone and was shocked to hear my total was almost 30 dollars. When I put the same order into their online checkout it added a 1.75 convenience fee that totaled the same amount I was told over the phone. I am not sure why this fee is necessary? The portion was sizable but not 30 dollars sized. read more

Its a GREAT place, good prices, great staff...im so happy we found it...all the good reviews are TRUE.

My brother picked up to go for our family dinner. Having tried most all of the Thai restaurants in Tampa, I would say this is a better Thai restaurant. There is another location in LUtz, hopefully it's the same owner Chicken fried rice no veggies - 5/5 very well seasoned and cooked. For such a simple dish it was not bland. -Drunken noodles with chicken - 4/5 I would think this is a great dish if you were eating in the restaurant. The flavors were definitely there but by the time it got to its destination the noodles were clumped together. It was slightly spicier than pad Thai. -Beef salad - 5/5 this felt like a healthier dish with good amount of meat portion -Chicken Pad Thai - 5/5 Super fresh and ingredients blended well together, plentiful peanuts to top it off. I would maybe suggest more bean sprouts for texture. -Gyoza - 3/5 these are very small with very minimal filling -Chicken masamon curry with potato- 3/5 not a fan of this dish. I will stick with Penang curry next time -bancock wings- 4/5 Very soft and flavorful. Comes with a side salad with peanut dressing. - Papaya salad -4/5 fresh salad but very small portion compared to most restaurants. They did not ask for the spice level , could use a little bit more kick. read more

I have been here twice recently. I ordered Pad Thai Chicken both times and Beef Salad. I came twice because it was the best tasting Pad Thai I've had in a long time. However, in the course of a few weeks and spreading leftovers out for lunches I have ended up with bad migraines within an hour after eating. I'm not sure what ingredients they use. MSG perhaps? Not sure but needless to say I am disappointed because I thought I finally found my Thai place but sadly I cannot return. read more

We were first timers and were excited to visit base on the strong reviews. We placed our carry out order consisting of; 1. 2ea. Wonton Soups 2. 1ea. Drunken noodles with pork and broccoli 3. 1. Basil Beef dish with extra snow peas and heavy sauce $55.00 later after getting home, it's also overpriced for the little portions Wonton Soup was bland. The broth was like dirty dish water Drunken Noodles were over cooked and in shreds, huge pieces of chewy pork and no broccoli that we paid extra for Basil beef had a nearly measured quart of free floating sauce, the beef was in chunks and elastic and hard to chew, also forget the add the extra snow peas we ordered. The portion size was like eating a kids meal. Don't waste your time and money explore other restaurants. read more

I have walked by this place so many times and never even noticed it was there. Luckily a friend wanted to meet up for lunch and she picked this hidden gem. The place was quiet and not crowded for lunch. I had the panang curry with chicken mild and it came with Jasmine rice. Everything was amazing. The portion size was perfect and flavors were fantastic. I am not a fan of spicy food and this was the great for me. The server was very professional and pleasant. Price was average for today's market. We will be back to try other food in the future. read more

Thai Chilli Pepper - Panang Curry with Chicken and Jasmine rice. - Thai Near Me - Brandon, Florida

I was craving Thai food this weekend so I ventured out to Thai Chilli Pepper which used to be Thai Smiles in my old reviews. This time, there was a completely new staff and they were very friendly. Food Thai Iced Coffee: Very delicious if you love Thai coffee. Shrimp Tom Yum: It was piping hot when it came out but it was very delicious and the shrimp were huge! I liked it a lot. House Fried Rice: It was very delish but it was very oily. I was not used to that but it was still delish nonetheless. Spicy Drunken Noodles: It was a different taste from the regular drunken noodles, there was a red paste or sauce that was overpowering the dish and I wasn't a fan. I'll definitely stick to regular drunken noodles now. Overall, the place wasn't too bad. Our cups didn't get refilled but the waiters were nice. When they came with the bill, the waiter had a handheld credit card scanner so that made the process very fast and efficient. I may return in the future. read more

I was looking for something new today so I searched Yelp for my area. Thai Chili Pepper had great reviews so we ventured there. The sign says "Modern Thai" so my interest was peaked. We entered to soft classical music playing with some Thai inspired decorations, however it was the art work that caught my eye. We were greeted promptly and our server was very friendly. We ordered Crab Rangoon to start and I asked our server for a recommendation between Thai Sweet and Sour and Spicy Basil . I have not had a Thai Basil dish in years due to a few poor experiences, however he said it was his favorite so in ordered it. I have to say it was very happy with our experience. The Crab Rangoon was delicious. The crisp outside was not greasy and the filling was just right. My Spicy Basil, I ordered with Chicken, was devine. The red peppers were sweet and crisp and the carrots smooth and not bitter. My chicken was tender and had flavor throughout the meat. The entree comes with jasmine rice, which added fragrance to the dish. I might even try it spicier next time, because I will definately eat here again. read more

Great local spot for delicious thai. The crab rangoon was pretty good, but the Shrimp Pad Thai and Yellow Curry with Shrimp took center stage. No hunting around for your shrimp. It's big and it's plentiful. Just the way I like it. Order your curry mild, medium or hot. Medium was hot for me. So, mild next time, but I'm a bit of a wimp. The service was super friendly and super efficient. Water glasses were never half empty! read more

Tum Yum seafood soup is Fantastic! As well as the seafood salad!! Great service served as it is freshly made to order

For Friday night we were all craving for Thai food and we decided to try Thai Chilli Pepper restaurant. We ordered the food from the website online and decided to takeout the food. For dinner we ordered Fried Spring Rolls, Thai Chilli Pepper Bangkok Wings, Tom Yum Chicken Soup, Spicy Fried Rice, Yum Duck and Red Curry. The food was amazing and we decided for medium to hot spice level. We as Indians don't each much spice so for most of our family members it was really spicy. We loved the food as it was amazing. According to me the biggest disappointment was duck which we feel can be made better. Rest all of it was amazing. read more

This is a small restaurant in a large shopping center on Bloomingdale Rd. They have about 10 tables with waiter service. They do a busy take out business. The staff are very friendly and know the menu items well. There are numerous soups, salads and appetizers to choose from. The crab rangoons and bangkok wings were excellent. As for the entrees , they serve several different coconut curry dishes, noodle dishes, salads, fried rice, and Thai specialty items. The chicken pad thai and yellow coconut curry with chicken were delicious. I heard the pineapple fried was excellent. I will try that next visit. We were too full for desert, because the portions are generous. The restaurant is clean and there is plenty of parking. read more

The most perfect spot to celebrate my birthday. Food was scrumptious - I mean every single thing we ordered was ahmazing. We had a large party and they kept our table taken care of. You could tell they were a team. The 'Thai Chilli Pepper' Bangkok Wings are the best Wings I have had I in a lonnnggg time. I definitely see why they are the best wings in the area. We literally made a second order of these. We had the Bangkok Wings, lettuce wraps, chicken satay, and crab Rangoon as appetizers. For entrees we had Panang Curry, Spicy Drunken Noodles (just a hunt of spice), several variations of House Fried Rice, Papaya salad, Tom Kah soup with shrimp. Every single person at our table loved their meals. The chef made an awesome birthday dessert and came out to greet our table. Such kind people who serve incredible food The ambiance was excellent. Very relaxing. Simple but quality atmosphere. The art work is great also. This could be a great date night spot too. I highly recommend this spot if you like, love, or have never had Thai food! This will become one of your favorite spots. read more

I was disappointed in this location. I definitely prefer the other Brandon location near the hospital. Was not sure what to order. It was between the stir fry vegetables with beef or the Thai chili with beef. The server recommended the Thai chili. What I did not realize was how sweet and oily it was. I do not like sweet food. The server never asked did I want it spicy like she asked the other table when they ordered. She asked did I like the food I told her no it was too sweet. She said next time try something different! WTF so I picked out the beef and ate that with the rice. All the vegetables was such a disappointment because it was so sweet and oily. I paid the bill and they didn't even give me a copy of my receipt. My sister and said we should have gone to the other Brandon location. This was definitely not worth the money. The only thing I enjoyed was the Thai coffee. The dumplings that we got for appetizers were also cold. read more

Thai Chilli Pepper is a local, hidden gem. I wouldn't typically expect a great local restaurant in a strip center, but because of so many great Yelp reviews, I knew I had to give it a try. I am so glad I did! I ordered the Pad Thai mild, as I have had a few unpleasant experiences lately at other establishments with the food being way spicier than the menu describes. My husband got the "medium-to-hot" and said that he barely tasted any spice, so while that was disappointing to him, I now know that I can do a higher spice level than mild, without it being so hot that it clears my sinuses. My husband asked for no peanuts on his Pad Thai, and his order was made correctly. We both thought the Pad Thai was incredible. While the prices were a little high, I could look past it because the portions were huge! We ate it for dinner, lunch the next day and I still had a little bit leftover! I really appreciated that the staff was knowledgeable about what menu items were gluten-free, or could be modified to be gluten-free, as my husband has Celiac Disease. We used the pickup option, and while I wish that there was a curbside ordering option on the website, the restaurant was very clean inside and the food was ready to pickup as soon as we arrived. We will definitely be back to Thai Chilli Pepper, and can't wait to one day dine inside the restaurant! read more

WARNING!!! UNETHICAL PRACTICE!!! I've been ordering from this place for a couple of years already and find their Thai food to be pretty good for the area but what they did on our last order is unethical. They decided to add a $10 tip to our to go order which we obviously did not add. The fact that they felt like they could get away with adding an unauthorized tip on a to go order is despicable. Obviously we cannot trust this business anymore and will no longer be buying food from there. Just wanted to warn any patrons to check your charges to ensure they don't inflate the tip after you've paid. It's upsetting that they would try to take advantage of customers like that and now they lost loyal customers. I'll drive further down the road and start ordering from their competition instead. read more
