    Crispy Duck

    This is one of my favorite restaurants (ever) but I got home to see this is how much duck they gave me for $30...,,I was so excited as it's one of my fave menu items but yeah this is a little crazy. Hasn't happened before and hopefully won't happen again!

    Lunch, tea, and what was a ginger dressing salad
    Anne B.

    A friend recommended this place for its fabulous duck noodle soup. As I was having service done on my car next-door at Les Schwab seemed like a perfect chance to give it a try. Duck is only on their dinner menu, but I decided I would spring for it since I live an hour and a half away And could take the remains home. I am having the thick noodle duck and carrot dish with a flavorful soy sauce. Definitely does not disappoint and now that I know I can find a good duck dish, I will be back frequently when I make the epic trip to Cortez. It's a bit noisy, but I can survive with that obviously, that's a sign of a popular lunch restaurant they close at 2 PM and reopen for dinner at four.

    Fabulous green curry. Well-seasoned, creamy, thick and the medium spice level was ACTUALLY a good level of spice. The service was fantastic and I would definitely come back. Nice restaurant with good vibes.

    Ginger stir fry with tofu
    Lianna T.

    Tasty, fresh and satisfying Thai food centrally located in Cortez. We were satisfied by the ginger stir fry and the chicken curry. The sauces were balanced - not too heavy or light. And food tasted fresh and of good quality. Service was kind and quick. A perfect simple Thai dinner in Cortez.

    Handmade crab Rangoons (4) for appx $12. Sweet/spicy sauce. A little doughy where the folds were but over all yummy!

    So glad I came in for lunch! I ordered two lunch specials and one app for about $43 after tip. The food was fresh and fragrant. I could hear the wok in the kitchen so I knew it was going to be made to order. The dining room is clean and so was the bathroom. The servers worked well together and I wanted for nothing. I had the rangoons, panang curry and fried rick - chicken for both. Will order all again! Hope to be back soon.

    Fresh Rolls and Pho
    Miss K.

    I wasn't expecting fresh, good food. I had the fresh roll appetizer as my meal (I ate a few before taking pic). They were crisp and so good! I love peanut sauce and this one was like a dessert. Sweet and salty. I def order again. My parents each ordered pho, one chicken and one beef. They enjoyed each bite. This is a nice, casual, quality place.

    WOW. Very glad I convinced my family to stop here, and I hope I can convince you too. We stopped in for their Lunch Specials, served from 11:30am - 2:00pm. The service staff was friendly, our food arrived promptly, and each of us were thrilled with the meals we chose. The lunch special was also served with a first course of a small salad, similar in flavor to the typical ginger salad at many sushi places, but with much deeper, pleasant flavors that I can't precisely name, but know they melded so nicely together. For whatever you order, various pepper sauces/oils are provided upon request for you to administer to your liking. Here was what we tried: Pad Khee Mao (Chicken) - 5/5 - Our server's astute recommendation among the noodles dishes offered for lunch. The best drunken noodles I've had, made perfect with the red pepper oil. Garlic (Chicken) - 4.5/5 - Delicious. Garlic was a bit overwhelming at the beginning (valid given the name), but the hot pepper oil really balanced it out. Fried Rice (Chicken) - 4/5 - "Good. Pretty tasty." - My brother

    Pad Khing with Tofu

    Lunch at Thai Cortez & Sushi in Cortez, Colorado was excellent! Nice atmosphere, great service and delicious food! You could see and taste the love that was put into the dish It was a perfect lunch! We plan to go back while in the area!

    Drunken Noodles with Chicken and Extra Basil.
    Elisa O.

    We have gone to Thai Cortez on multiple occasions but we always eat all the food before I take pictures! It's that delicious. This time I took a couple of pictures. Every dish we have had has been scrumptious! Quality ingredients, consistently delicious! If you ever happen to be in Cortez, CO and you're craving Thai Food - try it out! I promise it will be worth it! Yummy in the tummy!

I got the pork pad thai and it was below average. The pork tasted stale, rancid, and gamey. The dish noodles themselves were just ok. Ambiance was calm, servers were sweet. They only had one chef, didn't have sushi and a number of other dishes when I went in a Friday afternoon, though. Not sure if it was poor timing or if it is usually like that. Bottom line: This may be a historically local favorite, but it is certainly not up to par with other places. Apparently the quality has gone down over the last couple years, unsure what changed. If you're visiting from out of town and are craving Thai food, go to Arches Thai in Moab, UT - WAY better food for similar price. It is worth the extra drive, trust me.

    This company is probably one of the better Thai places in Durango. Unfortunately, we do not have…read moremany options. I specifically let the ownership know that I was on a low-carb diet so I didn't want any noodles or rice. The woman that I was speaking to before told me to order off of their paper menu and she told me what numbers to consider, which were #5 and down through #22. I've only eaten here once before and took her suggestion literally. I guess it's the brother, or Manager as he stated on the phone that took my order. I asked for a number 9 without rice, and it's listed under rice dishes. When I got home with my food, it was filled with noodles. I called to note the consistency and he turned it around on me stating that this is a noodle dish that is also served with rice and I only asked for no rice. I tried to point out to him that nowhere under the ingredients mentioned does it list any noodles on this dish. He never understood my reasoning and said that there were pictures that were there of the dishes that I should have used when making my order. I didn't see that there were any noodles on this that I needed to omit from my order. For all I knew these were rice noodles or an option. I am also not used to seeing both noodles and rice on the same dish and he stated that these were tapioca noodles, not rice, so that's why they came. I could see his point, but he could not see mine. He accused me of harassing him, which I felt was rather strong because I simply called in a calm voice, trying to explain my logic, but he did not care at all. He said this was my fault entirely, which I don't agree with but you can see the picture of the menu for yourself. At the end of the day, if a customer has a concern or a complaint, they simply want to be heard. There was no apology for any misunderstanding. There was no customer service tone in anyway, I even had to ask him to stop interrupting me for just a minute so I could complete a sentence. If anything, I simply wanted to have them acknowledge what happened so it can help other customers in the future. As far as the food, there was no depth of flavor. I ordered it medium which was recommended since I cannot handle "Thai" hot. I give this dish a 2.5/5 on just the flavor as it was missing something. I give my experience a 1 for the overall rating. It's not saucy but I didn't know what to expect. However, given the size of the serving, it could have used more mushrooms, cilantro, and peanuts to balance out the dish. It came loaded with bamboo shoots, noodles and there was ample onion and pork, but the pork was tough. The female there was very nice but this guy obviously ruined it for me.

    I absolutely love their tom yum, tom kai-hai, pad Thai, pad kee-mao and #20. Friendly service &…read morefood is fast and fresh. Been coming here for years.
