The Thai food was delicious. Just the right amount of heat without being over powering. The waiter/cook was very attentive and kept our drinks full. There were 5 in our group and everything we got was good. The restaurant was quiet and the music was relaxing. My only complaint, and it has nothing to do with the restaurant, is the parking situation downtown Roanoke. Definitely give this place a try. read more

The first time I came to this place I sat down and wasn't served immediately but they gave me a table and asked me to wait, and I took some telework to that table. They never got to me and eventually I decided I wasn't hungry and left. Not great. But they were doing vigorous takeout business during that time, so when I had a need I ordered takeout from them well in advance and it was ready. They offer a few vegetarian dishes, and I took a spicy tofu stir fry and a thicker curry as well as some spring rolls. I got a decent amount of actual tofu. I was a little bit peeved at the broccoli showing up in my curry that wasn't listed on the menu. The rice wasn't quite enough for the saucy dishes, and I do like the aromatic jasmine rice. Overall, though, the flavors were solid, the spicy dish was spicy. Given that I came due to a craving for Thai that my last restaurant experience let me down on, I could at least say the food here was A-OK, in Yelp terms. Sometimes, that's good enough. read more

I'm a Thai food lover..It is by far one of my favorites. I ordered Shrimp green curry and that was fairly good. My partner got his usual, pad Thai with chicken. He asked for it spicy. We also ordered chicken satay. My partner loves that. We never received it. Instead they gave two orders of pad Thai.. not spicy. We did a phone call in order. I went over everything three times. It was a Saturday afternoon, after 3 pm but before 6pm. I ran in to pick it up, but did not check the bag. When we got home there was no chicken satay, but two very bright orange meals?? And my shrimp green curry. I figured it out that it was a dyed orange pad Thai. I say dyed as the chicken that was bright orange too. My partner lost his appetite. He would not eat it. Felt bad for him. I ate only a few bites of the orange noodle,.. it tasted like pad Thai~~ but was not spicy. We were both put off by the orange dye . I had an event after.. we just threw it away.. both orders. I did not call back as I was very clear on the phone, so if the man did not understand me then, why would he after? Why did they dye the food like that? Why was the chicken orange too? We like Thai as it is usually very fresh and clean in taste. My dear friend is from Thailand too. I've been eating Thai for 30 years, and I have never seen dyed bright orange food before. Too bad, as I adore Thai food. Ok a picture is worth one thousand words... put on your sunglasses. read more

This small restaurant in the heart of Downtown Roanoke is one that I've always wanted to visit and this evening I dedecided to ignore the cold and windy weather outside and go try it out. When I arrived at the restaurant it was already dark outside due to the change of time, but the restaurant looked even more attractive than in the daytime due to the brilliant lights coming out from their window. They had a copy of their extensive menu posted on one of their walls next to the entrance of the restaurant. As I entered the restaurant the decor itself has a taste of Thailand. It was like entering into another world. The host / server greeted me warmly and asked me to sit in any table I liked. I picked one near the center of the dining room area. It had a copy on the menu on it. To start off with I ordered a Virgin Pina Colada to drink. As an appetizer I ordered the Thai Sausage. And as the main entrée I ordered the Prik-Pao Noodles with Pork. All the food was so looked and tasted amazingly tasty and delicious. As I ate several people came to pick up takeout orders as well as others to eat in. You could tell this place had some steady customers, and others new like me.For dessert I ordered the Sticky Rice with Mango. It didn't disappoint me at all. Delicious. Thai cuisine has a very special taste and this restaurant knows it and delivers. I encourage all those who want to share this taste to try it out. Once you do I can assure you you'll want to return for more. read more

Incredibly fresh and faster than sitting in a drive thru. The Panang curry and coconut sticky rice was amazing.

It was pretty good. We went hiking and found this restaurant. We were lucky that found a free parking spot on the street. Just a little bit walk but really enjoyed the street. This place got a lot of drinks and the service was good. The food was a little bit sweet to me but it was pretty good. I usually eat spicy food. Maybe I should try spicy curry next time. read more

Outstanding Thai food. The Tom Yum soup and Massaman Curry were thoroughly enjoyed. Generous portions, great flavor, and nice heat to warm you from tonsils to toes. read more

Food was very good. Big selection. Service was excellent. Small quaint place. Nice atmosphere.

Worst Lo Mein I have ever had in my life. For $20 each with tip, It literally looks like they cook a pack of ramen noodles and throw crap in it. Soggy Ramen noodle soup with a few vegetables thrown in. I will NEVER eat ANYTHING from this place again and I have no idea how they are open. Legitimately the WORST FOOD from a restaurant I have ever had in my life. read more

This was my 2nd time here and I wanted to give it a 2nd chance, but both times, I did not enjoy it. The first time I had the pad see ew, a dish I've had many times at other places. This version was very dry, the sauce was not yummy, and the tofu tasted a bit sour. This time I had the koa soy, a dish I'd never had before. The texture was fun, but it was a little bit too salty. But this is just a matter of personal taste. My mom had the Honey Duck, which is advertised as a roast duck, in a honey-ginger sauce on a bed of steamed vegetables. The duck was 85% thick/fatty skin, not a crispy skin. The sauce, which I expected to be like a thick glaze, was a pool of liquid. When I expressed our disappointment in the description of the duck vs. what we got, the response was (paraphrase) "the chef wanted to let you know that there was a pound of duck in there," which did not address our concern. It was $18, so it was not worth the money. We went at peak dinner time (6:20-7:45 pm) so it was packed and there was only one waitress working, so many tables had to wait a long time. This, I'm not as frustrated at, but I wanted to put it in the review for others to keep in mind. Overall, this restaurant is just not for me. Others may enjoy it. The first time, my friends seemed to enjoy the curry; the Vegan Pad Thai is also good, just make sure to squeeze lime in. read more

I came here while wandering around downtown and unfortunately didn't find a gem. The staff was nice but the food was nothing special. Pad Thai was super orange for some reason and overall the flavors were just kind of muted. Crab in the crab Rangoon tasted very fishy. The inside was cute but there was a very strong cleaning product smell. I don't think we'll be back. read more

The food served here is energizing to me. I ordered drunken noodles, a thai iced tea and Chinese donuts. The food is delicious, filing and I daresay a bit addictive to my person. I spoke with the proprietor after Uber Eats had botched my order and I went to the restaurant directly to pick up my order. The service was enjoyable, and the ambiance was enjoyable as well. If you are looking for good food, I strongly recommend this restaurant for your gastronomic adventures! read more

The food at Thai Continental was one of the best Thai foods that we've had. The vegetarian tofu platter was absolutely delicious with a rich taste. The matzaman curry was also delicious, with a nice blend of heat, sweet and sour tastes. Service was quick. This one's a keeper! read more

Decent food and friendly service from hostess-waitress-bartender. Spring rolls with shrimp and summer rolls were good. Pad Prik King with Shrimp was very tasty. Liked the fresh green beans. It was advertised as spicey but was barely so. Guess that's spicey for American palates. Decor is kind of funky. read more

Absolutely my favorite place to eat. The prices are affordable for extremely delicious food, the food is a great amount as well. The service was exceptional. Not only is their food delicious but the DESSERT is IMMACULATE. I think the gentleman who was our server was the owner because he informed us at he had created the specific dessert of sticky rice with coconut and custard sauce. I highly recommend eating at this venue. It will not disappoint you. read more

Charming local establishment with nice variety. The indoor seating area is small but sitting on the patio is nice when it's warm out. The Tom Yum soup is always amazing! read more

I am only giving this 2 stars because the young man at the front desk was very courteous .The food taste like it was microwaved and had sat out most of the day the portions are very small compared to other restaurants in the area for the price . Also we love spicy food and this was so hot we could barely eat it. The best part of this meal was $31 packet of soy sauce and the rice thanks for the rice and soy sauce . read more

Small establishment, good service, delicious food!! The portions compared to pricing were reasonable and the iced coffee was perfect!! Looking forward to returning and trying more on the menu. read more

Decided to try this place for the first time and ordered pickup. Portions were decent. At first it looked a bit small for the pricing but it either way, it was enough for a meal. What really brought this down to a 2 star instead of a 3 star is the service I received (or lack there of) when I called and asked about the chicken wings I was wanting to try. Only one of my wings had a bone in it (I was told all of them should be bone in wings) and that the cook most likely accidentally cooked general Taos chicken instead. Being told "that is very disconcerning" and no offer to help resolve the issue is the biggest concern I have with the restaurant. The other food was meh. Not great, not bad - just meh. I'm sure others have had a great experience at some point; sadly for me, this was not one of those. read more

Stopped here while on a road trip. Tired of eating burgers & pizza, went into the Thai place. Seated immediately, there's a menu that's 50+ items long. Ordered and food came after 15-20 minutes. Probably ordered the wrong thing, but did not like the food ordered. Ordered khao soi and there was a whole missing portion of cooked noodles. Khao soi is supposed to have crispy noodles and cooked noodles, but this version was only crispy noodles. I barely touched my food. Also ordered the duck krapow, and the duck was fine, but the breading was doughy, instead of crispy. One A M A Z I N G thing was their Thai tea, wow! Was in a huge mason jar & had enough caffeine to help substantially offset the food putting me to sleep. There were really nice elephant decorations and a super nice elephant tapestry. Also, there were fun wooden cats in the window sill. While I appreciate that the place was an alternative to the pizza/steak/burger party in the downtown Roanoke area, one suggestion to the owner: cut 3/4 of the menu, to specialize in 10-15 items and be AMAZING at creating those recipes so ingredients don't get old/go bad/taste rancid. Verdict: would not return. read more

Disappointing. The Pad Thai was overly-plain. Had to order vegetables to have with it. Otherwise would have been a plate of rice noodles, sauce, and sparing amount of green onions. The portion was large, however. Odd ambiance in the restaurant with blinking lights in one corner. read more

Extremely disappointing. I was in the mood for thai fried rice, so I ordered the kapow fried rice. It had no chilies, one that's right one piece of basil , about six small pieces of bell pepper mixed into a greasy order of fried rice no better than hibachi drivethu. Not to mention, the pork was overcooked in this overpriced order. The container was no bigger than a water bottle for $14.00!!!!!!! Oh well, lesson learned. read more

My coworker and I felt like having Thai yesterday so we stopped by here. The food here is just mediocre to be honest. It's not the worst Thai food I have had but it's not the best either. The temperature of the food felt warm but not hot, I prefer warmer food than colder food, especially when dining out. The only thing that was memorable was the friendly server/bartender we had. Probably won't be coming back. read more

Ordered delivery via DoorDash, and the food arrived cold, greasy, and flavorless. The steamed dumplings are shumai, not bao, and both they and the egg rolls tasted like they'd been made hours ahead of time (no crisp/crunch, greasy, just terrible). The curry and the rice were lacking in flavor and also arrived cold. This was such a disappointment- I love Thai food and was really hoping my Christmas dinner would be a nice meal. read more

Nice overall. Great vegetarian choices. I loved the veggie curry, the pineapple and the cashew nuts were great addition to the curry flavor. The Thai tea was good, the veggie Tom Yum was very flavorful without being too spicy. Not 5 stars due to lack of flavor on the SUMMER rolls. Otherwise great service and perfect ambience for a quiet evening. read more

Great first time coming here! Nice owners and fast service. We had the drunken noodles and they were good, will come back!

The food and service were really good, but their music taste is absolutely horrible. Its just Taylor swift and stupid tik tok songs. If you like stupid, annoying, idiotic, and brain rotting songs then you will like this place. read more

I ate here on New Years and it was probably the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant. I can't think of a worse time in my entire life than this place. Maybe it was a one off, but not returning. The food was rancid. And I mean like they served me rotten food. I first had soup. It tasted sour, like it had been sitting out for days. This was the first time in years that I ever sent a dish back. Then we both had our main dishes. I could only eat a few bites then I just stopped eating. My girl ate two bites and asked for it to be put in a to go box to be nice. She threw it away as soon as she got out of the restaurant. I can't believe I paid forty dollars for that. We went to McDonald's on the way back home. The food was rancid, rotten, sour and smelly. I'm still salty I didn't ask for a refund. read more

I have been going to this restaurant for over 20 years. This is quite literally one of the best restaurants in Roanoke and certainly the best for Thai food. I have never had a bad experience or meal here. I've tried multiple things on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. My top favorites include the Pha Ram Long Song (best meal) and Threes Company! The Cashew Chicken, Massaman Curry, Teriyaki Chicken, and Panang Curry are all excellent as well! By far, the best Thai food in town! Check any of these meals out and I sincerely doubt you'll be disappointed. read more

Fairly authentic Thai food. I got ginger lover. Only complaint was that there wasn't enough ginger. Service was good as well. I would go again read more

Ordered drunken noodles/chicken for pickup. Food was ready when I arrived and the portion looked small for $14.99. Thinner noodles than I am used to getting in the Richmond area but very tasty nonetheless. Only a few pieces of chicken but like I said very tasty. Asked for extra fish sauce on the side and was given 2 packets of it so that's worth 1 star itself. I Just wished it was a bigger portion for the price. read more

I've always had great food from here and it is the only place in the Roanoke and Blacksburg area that serves my favorite dessert: Sticky rice with mango! I've lived various places across the US and theirs is one of the top I've had. Also one of the only places to get an amazing Thai iced tea as well! I would say those are my absolute two must try's at Thai continental. read more
