As a starter, we ordered the Thai chicken dim sum. It was so very tasty and seasoned well. My entree, Chili Basil with chicken. I could taste all the flavors. My friend ordered the Penang Curry Beef. Her favorite dish. The service was spot on Miguel & Artty were very attentive. They made sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant was very clean, light background music and love the decor. We will be back. Thank you. read more

Not sure why the reviews are low, but this place was good. Came here after work with some of my coworkers. It was empty, which I was nervous about. I'm glad we stayed and actually ate the food because it ended up being very good. I got the yellow curry and I just ate the curry by itself, I didn't even need rice. My coworkers also enjoyed their food. We got some sampler for an appetizer. Everything was surprisingly good. It was the first time I've tried a lot of those things on there ( can't remember exactly what the names are) but everything was good. Our waiter was so nice and attentive and she gave us great recommendations. The ambience is nice as well. I would definitely recommend this place and come back when I visit Houston again. read more

First time trying Thai and was pretty nervous and excited, I've heard so much about Pad Thai I had to give it a try, for spice I got a 3 out of 5 and I did not taste any spice I would try a 4 or 5 next time, definitely flavorful I had so some flavors explode into my mouth it was delicious, the serving was huge I had to take it home. For appetizer we also tried the fried spring rolls and those were pretty good too, will try to make it back to try this place even though it was a 40 min drive. read more

Easy five star review. Great customer service. The food is legit. What else could you ask me to get you in and out. Everyone is superintendent. This is how you a restaurant! Food: I've had the pad Thai with chicken. I also have a pot of beef chicken. Both were amazing great flavor. We also bring out a nice soup and egg roll which were equally good. I will definitely come back and try more things up their menu. I will suggest though they should fix out the machine because the sodas are weak. Or offer canned or bottle soda. The customer service is great. Miguel was our server and he was exceptionally nice and a great job. He made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I will be back soon. read more

The service was excellent but the food was bland and lacked flavor and taste. We ordered pad Thai, curry noodles and red curry which were all bland. The mango sticky rice where the rice was not fully cooked read more

I have been going to Thai Cottage for years and have thoroughly enjoyed the service here. My sister, her boyfriend, my husband and I are all vegans and love having options. Despite putting "VEGAN" in the special instructions under our favorite dishes, we were recently informed that many contained fish sauce and shrimp paste. (A concern for those who have fish allergies) Our meals were already prepared and they did not offer to remake our items. They pushed the blame on us noting "you should specify that you don't want fish sauce or shrimp paste" despite no note of these ingredients on the site where we ordered from and no option to take it off. We do not like to waste so when she took the other dishes away she ensured us it wasn't going to wasted which admittedly was a relief. Online the term "Vegan" is specifically noted. The staff member made sure to admonish me at the end with a reminder to ask to remove items that we should just know are on the ingredients list. I think the staff should become aware of this for religious reasons at the very least. Again we love the food and will eat here again but will likely frequent Thai restaurants that accommodate us and offer adjustments on items and specify animal-based products on their website. read more

I'm a regular at Thai Cottage for lunch. Nong and the staff are always super helpful and have great attitudes. The food is also great and very consistent. 5 stars. read more

We usually come to this location and don't have an issue. Today we have waited 45 mins to get our meal. When we asked the waiter about our food he was extremely rude and said " you have to wait, I can't do anything". Then we asked for the manager and she just said it was busy. 2 mins later she walked out with our food and when we asked her for boxes and the bill she walked away... it's been 5 mins since. Not coming back! read more

Very good great service. The food was delicious. Really miss the location on Richmond. Will definitely go back and off and order it delivered. The pad tire is the best in Houston. read more

I use to come here often. Decided to place an order. Everything tasted the same. Thai cottage is a chain. I could have ordered from another location. I decided against it. You never know with chains. read more

Chicken in Teriyaki dish has cardboard texture, way over cooked. Egg rolls ok probably were frozen.

The chicken in my dish tasted of reheated chicken which is not a good taste. So my sweet and sour was eaten without the chicken. Service seemed nice but i did get my appetizer soup like a minute before the main dish. I love thai soup but this time i should have gotten the salad. Ambiance fresh and open and packed during lunch. Garlic taste was lacking and i always taste it in Thai food. read more

Thai Cottage Westheimer - Wall art - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

I went there for lunch last week and limited time for lunch so I didn't have a lot of time to waste. I went in there and ordered the pad Thai with chicken and waited and waited and waited. Three people got their food before me and finally when the waitress delivered my food I said was there a problem because it was over 30 minutes. She said well we we had to. We had to cook some more Thai noodles and I almost wanted to say that well. I can cook tattooed noodles myself and it really takes about only 2 minutes to cook the Thai noodles. So it only take you maybe another 5 minutes to mix the ingredients, the peanuts and the the other sauces with it. So I was really kind of upset. So if you're looking to have a fast lunch there if you got time to spare, sure go by toth village but I've been to other Thai places and we got our food pretty fast so I was really disappointed in Thai cottage read more

The pad see ew is AMAZING. They always bring it out steaming hot. It has great flavor and the flat noodles are awesome. Also the Thai tea is so yum, $6 is a bit steep but if you have a craving go for it and you won't be disappointed. read more

Thai Cottage Westheimer - Pad Thai with Chicken - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Having eaten at 2 other locations and got amazing pad Thai I expected the same from this location. Ordered 2 orders of the lunch special of pad Thai "to go." Didn't think that it could be messed up boy was I surprised. Unfortunately both orders were a huge disappointment. Firstly, even ordering it a medium, the dish was way too spicy for our taste. We couldn't even finish it because the heat was so overpowering. Secondly, there wasn't nearly enough chicken in the dish. It was mostly just noodles and peanuts, with a few small pieces of chicken scattered throughout. Thank goodness for the salad and eggroll. It sort of saved the meal. But the problems didn't start there. When I arrived at the restaurant, even though there were 2 wait staff talking to one another and not serving any customers, I had to stand in front of the restaurant for about 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged my presence. To add insult to injury one of the wait staff answered the phone in front of me that rang after I arrived. When I finally got someone's attention, they seemed annoyed that I wanted to order to go. Overall, maybe this place was just having a bad day. The pad Thai was a huge letdown and the service was at best a 2. IMHO not worth the trouble, instead order from Greenway or Sugarland where service is always consistently good. read more

I went there a couple of weeks back for lunch, mind you I have limited time. I got seated waitress brought some ice water. I placed my order, Chicken with Thai noodles, one of their regular dishes. Several people came in seated around me, they got their food first, I waited and waited, 30 minutes and I was running low on time to relax and have lunch. One of the wait staff saw I was frustrated and I saw her mention something to the original waitress that had took my order, no one came by to say anything, within the next few minutes maybe five or ten more, the waitress brought my order. it was ok, but I mentioned to her 'Was there a problem?'. She said we had to make some more noodles. Now I know having cooked myself Thai noodles takes maybe two 3 minutes to cook, and the people's plates around me all had some version of noodles, that had arrived before me. needless to say I ate fast and left. Not what I was expecting for a small bistro restaurant, that caters to a lunch crowd. NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL. read more

I had a family dinner here, and it was quite good experience. The employees here were so nice and friendly. We ordered many dishes, but the one that caught all my senses was Red Curry with catfish. It was amazing! I wish it could be a little bit spicier even though I chose the hot level. Overall, this is one place that we should try. read more

I really loved the food..my friend has been to other Thai restaurantd and she said the food at this cottage was very good and good quality..The service was very good.. read more

Best thai food I've ever had! Great service as well. The pad thai is one of a kind. I highly recommend coming here. We got the spring rolls, wings, pad thai, and yellow curry. All fantastic! read more

So I did give them more chances...some experiences were good, some okay, and some bad. Like tonight's take-away. Hard to believe I paid $24 for (thankfully fresh) soft spring rolls and salty red curry with large chunks of old, bland, tough chicken, soft green peas, carrot lardons and huge bamboo shoots right out of the can. After using kitchen shears to cut the chicken, carrots and bamboo shoots into bite-size pieces, I took a couple bites and threw out the entire dish. read more

Went out for dinner with my family for New Year's Eve and had a terrible experience mostly due to our server. He was unprofessional, struggled to get our orders right ( managed to mess up one order at the table), repeated the same questions ( we had family out of town and he asked multiple times what language they spoke even though they had told him the first time), kept insisting he could give my niece cheesecake ( even though her parents had declined the first time). He really dampened the mood and made us uncomfortable. The food was just okay. My mom had ordered pad Thai with beef and got pad Thai with chicken and tofu. Would have liked dessert but honestly didn't want anymore interaction with our server. read more

Hands down the best shrimp pad thai I've had in Houston... It was moist, juicy, and flavorful. The flavor was exactly what I was looking for: Thai-flavored lol. And the fried chicken wings (Wings of Paradise)....OMG so GOODT! I was a bit skeptical because I'm not fond of basil, BUT those wings were wonderful, even with the basil! Give this place a try, it'll be worth your while read more

Went here for lunch and ordered the yellow chicken curry lunch special. Taste was reasonable however portion size was very small, few thinly sliced chicken. read more

The atmosphere here is beautiful, with lovely plants on the wall and at the entrance and an open layout. The service is okay but the restaurant was super busy when I visited so take that for what it's worth. I'm rating a 3 because my pad Thai had a weird consistency to it and my to-go salad didn't have a dressing. The pad Thai tasted good but not great and the texture was definitely off today. The egg roll was good and portions were great for the $9+ lunch rate. I personally won't be going back but it's worth a shot if you're in the area. read more

Thai Cottage Westheimer - Chicken pad Thai with weird texture - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

I really like their lunch specials. They have a good variety of dishes at or around $6.95 to $7.50 during the lunch hour of 11am to 3p. For lunch, you get a small salad or soup, spring roll (fried) and a generous portion of items such as red curry, green curry, basil chicken, chicken and veggies, or my favorite pad thai. The only drawback of this place is that it fills up very quickly between 11:15 and 1pm. However, the wait is usually short. Because they're so busy, you might get terrible service during that time. Just a FYI. Parking might be a disaster during the lunch hour because the location is located in the popular Carillion shopping center. read more

The appetizers were great! We had the wings of Paradise and the golden shrimp. Also had the Garden soup and the BBQ Ribs. Portion size was good and the food was very tasty. Staff was very friendly. Plan to go back! read more

Had the Red Curry. Was amazed at how little the portion was. Big rice and a cup of curry. I'm low carb so was crappy for me. I just threw up which I very rarely do. I'll never go back. read more

I mainly review Thai food because it's God's gift. Thai Cottage is the perfect lunch spot. Total 3 locations, each one has the same quality of food. Order from the lunch menu, $9 gets you soup or salad, spring roll, and entree. Their red curry is AMAZING. It's the perfect lunch combo. There's usually more traffic at lunch but they are quick to seat. The interior of this one is my favorite, very trendy. I would happily bring clients here. read more

Was there today at 11:15. Put in our order shorty there after. People were coming in getting their order before we did . So we asked where our order was ??? One order finally came to the table . The other was made wrong so @ 11:45 were still waiting for our orders . When the order with the pork finally came it was 12:05 and pork was absolutely nasty tasting .. we sent that back .!! Didn't want any more ... I feel like they should have comped the whole meal ! Nope I paid for my Order There was a line out the door - I can't see why. My chicken was like frozen chicken heated up and bottled cheap teriyaki poured on it . This used to be good food . Apparently not anymore . Never again .. read more

I've always enjoyed this Thai Cottage. They have been rocking hard for years. The one in Sugarland and the one off Wesleyan and Richmond have been awesome for years. I went to the one on Westheimer near the Beltway last Friday night. Restaurant looks awesome as usual. New staff and they did well. Chicken fried rice with number 3 heatness was inedible for the first time ever in the 10 years I've been going there. This time was different. I was looking for premium white chicken breast meat marinated and cooked to perfection. It tasted like a small, pigeon-like "chicken" from Wal*Mart. The rice was hard and under-cooked. A little egg, cucumber, pepper, and lime improved quite a bit. The food sucked, but I'm hoping it was a bad night. 3 stars because I still love them and know they can do better. That night in particular, deserved 2 stars. I will go back in a month or so and give another review. Hopefully, it will be 5 stars, but they have to earn it. read more

Extremely disappointed in the lunch I just purchased from this place. It's beautiful on the inside nice ambience nice music. Friendly staff clean place especially during COVID-19. I ordered the green dish and I specifically asked the server what comes in the dish, she said the mix vegetables contained broccoli and carrots. She said it also contained mushrooms bean sprouts and cabbage. I ordered a level two spicy. What I received has no carrots in it, no broccoli in it, and it lacks flavor and there is no spice at all. It's also swimming in a tasteless, watery juice instead of a sauce. I will not get this dish again. read more

Thai Cottage Westheimer - Green Delight Level 2 spicy. - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place is super cute! I stopped by for a healthier quick lunch option. I had the fried noodles with veggies. They give you an option of 1-5 of how much spice you would like. I had the 2..it was well seasoned and just enough spice for my liking! The portion is huge..i have 1-2 servings left over for dinner. Everything tasted fresh. I also got the crispy veggie rolls...fresh, crispy & delish. (they come 4 for $3.95) They were so good that I ate them while hot and burned my mouth ‍! Lets just say I'm stuffed and satisfied. I will definitely revisit and tell my foodie friends about it! It was quiet and quick service. I came around 2pm on a Thursday. 5 stars!! read more

This place was packed for lunch. And it didn't take me long to figure out why: the super legit lunch special. For under $10, you get the choice of soup or salad, an egg roll, and an entree from a long list of Thai favorites like green curry and pad thai. I opted for the red curry chicken with soup. Yum!! The beef stew soup was flavorful and surprisingly loaded with beef. The red curry chicken was the star of my meal, though. This was goooooood - rich, creamy, fresh and the perfect balance of spice. The restaurant isn't entirely large, so I wouldn't really suggest it for large parties. It also appeared as if every waiter was in the weeds (server lingo for super busy). So, service wasn't too great. Despite the mishaps, the Thai food was delicious. read more
