Food is delicious, service is great. I especially like the free items!! Don"t change a thing. My compliments to waitress for helping me speak Thai!! I learned some while traveling to Changmai. read more

I had been a longtime fan of Erb Thai, and was looking for something that wasn't quite as far from my home. I found Thai Express, in the Town & Country Plaza, and I am in love! I had the Pad Prik, and it was amazing. My friend had something else, (the name escapes me right now), but she raved about her dish as well. The food was fresh, the portions were sizable, and the price is reasonable. I couldn't be happier! The employees were all friendly, and cordial, and seemed truly happy to be there. We visited on a Friday night, after the dinner rush, and I was pleased to see that there were several tables filled, with happy patrons chatting and eating away... it was a sight that touched me. I'm happy to say that I have a favorite neighborhood Thai place now! read more

Ordered through Grubhub. Waited 2.5 hours. Never got my food despite multiple calls to the restaurant by Grubhub. Never got a phone call from the restaurant or delivery driver. Terrible service. read more

Absolutely excellent food at terrific prices and super service! Love these women and how accurate the dishes always are to description, including spice level! Zero MSG. Everything from scratch. All can be modified to your interests or taste and can also easily become gluten free or dairy free as necessary. Thai Express gets all the love for all the right reasons! read more

Excellent food. Excellent service! The staff gives 100% service with all sorts of perfect touches. The food all tastes and looks incredibly fresh. We were given fresh rice to go with our to go boxes and mini cheese cakes or ice cream sandwiches are included for desert. Plus we got a cute bowl of mints with our fortune cookie!! So good! read more

I've been going there for the past 8 years and have never been disappointed. These ladies work extremely hard and put all effort into cooking the food and making it authentic. Order whatever you want and it will be great! read more

I really enjoyed the food at Thai Express. They gave us complementary egg rolls to start. I got the Pad Woon Sain (glass noodles dish) and it was so good! It came with a side of rice, which I couldn't even finish. The meal concluded with complementary ice cream sandwiches or an ice cream bar. I would highly recommend this place-it had friendly staff and the service was quick. read more

Had just landed to be home for the holidays and Yelped Thai restaurants near airport. Thai Express had 4.5 Stars so I had to eat there. Lunch portions are perfect size with choice of decent tasting soup or salad. My Thai ice tea tasted funny though. My guest didn't like their meal but I believe she ordered wrong dish. Food was good to me. Customer service was the best I've experienced in a long time!!!! As a party of two, they asked us to move to a smaller table and offered a free appetizer. They brought 2. They didn't charge us for my guests meal or my Thai ice tea and were persistent in trying to get my guest to order something else. She just wasn't in the mood. The check came with mints served in a tiny bowl.....so cute. The bite size cheesecake (or ice cream) that was also part of the meal was tasty too. I tipped very well. I would DEF go back on my next visit home. read more

Thai Express is always the first place that comes to mind when thinking about going out or getting take out. Quick, delicious food, huge portions, lovely staff, and it's easy on my wallet. Curry fried rice and curry noodle are our go-to orders. With the spring rolls and the ice cream/cheesecake dessert, we always leave stuffed and carrying leftovers. We fell in love with their food shortly before they moved across the parking lot. Seeing the larger restaurant and beautiful murals, we were very happy for the Thai Express family. Not a single bad thing to say. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! "Curry Pad Thai With Beef & Spicy Level 2 Please!!!" Best Thai food I've had hands down.

This place is really nice. The prices are cheap, the portions are big, and the food is really good. I actually thought the pad thai was okay, I think I've had better. I thought the red curry was really good and the curyy fried rice. If you are into fish, you must try chu chee pla which was a tilapia fillet in red curry, it was out of this world! I will definitely go back and try more things from their menu! The owners were really nice they gave my family and I vegetable rolls and ice cream sandwiches on the house! read more

I love Thai Express! The service Is fast and friendly! I've never had a bad dish there. The spring rolls and dipping sauce are the best I've had in GR. I'm a fan of the noodle dishes but the peanut curry is also tasty. Prices are reasonable too. read more

This place has amazing thai food! It has become our favorite spot for Thai food in the area! Curry pad thai is the best, and their is sweet but also has the curry flavor and I love that I can add the spice to it! Their prices are great, and they even give you little cheesecake desert bites! We will absolutely be returning! read more

Great! One of the only true Thai restaurants in town, most of the "thai" places are in no way shape or form thai, you get a very loose rendition of what they think thai food is. Awesome food and staff! read more

I haven't had Thai this good in a long time!

My wife and I are originally from Grand Rapids, but now live in Chicago, and we still have yet to find a better place for Thai! The people are excellent, the food is superb, especially the spring rolls, and the complimentary cheesecake is fantastic. We wish we could take this back to Chicago with us! This place is a gem! read more

This is my favorite place on the planet! The food is amazing you get large portions And the curries are authentic. The Thai tea isn't just the best it's unlimited refills. I might be wrong but it's the only Thai around with bottomless Thai coffee/tea. Bonus salad for lunch. I'm not sure what that dressing is but it's really good. And the best part is the price. If the free Cheese cake or Ice cream sandwich isn't enough I'm not sure what is. The only minor issue would be the limited seating, so beat the rush or get it to go. I even had them cater my wedding and it was a hit I had so many people ask me where I got the food. Being vegetarian this is one of my few "safe" places to eat. The tofu is good and I've never had anything funny in my food. Last of all the owner and staff are friendly good people so give them a try. read more

Service was good. Food was mediocre. Not much taste to the food. I've had much better.

I simply love this place!!! The lunch special is my favorite. The idea you get a salad, entree, and desert for 7.99, makes this place even more special. The food is tasty and the service is great! The workers are extremely friendly. I have and would recommend this place to anyone in the area. It's small and quaint but totally worth it. read more

I'm from the east side of the mitten and I've grown accustomed to high quality Asain food at several locations. It's been a bit more difficult to do so here. This is the first place I've found in the grand rapids area that has really high quality Thai food. Ordered the Curry Noodles. Delicious! Also comes with a spring roll and fortune cookie which is a bonus. As a topper best friendly service. Highly recommend for anyone looking for their Thai food fix. read more

Food here was delicious!! Had the spring rolls, pad Thai, and chicken satay w peanut sauce. Food is made to order. Would have given all 5 stars if I didn't have to ask for silverware, napkins & refill but I am picky about service. Server was friendly and quickly fulfilled our requests. read more

I've eaten here for years and the food is always delicious. It's got a kinda of home cooked feel to it and definitely authentic. Some factors of mine would be the curry pad thai and the kuay tiew. I'm not a fan of coconut milk but my friends are all fans of the green curry (gang khiew wan) as well. For the less adventurous if recommend the soy sauce noodle (pad ce-ew) read more

This place is great. The food is super flavorful and the staff is always friendly. My favorites are the glass noodles and the drunken noodles, although I have never had anything bad and the menu is HUGE. The spring rolls are too die for. I love this place. This is the best Thai food I have ever had. read more

Soooooo yummy! I'll start with dessert....The sticky rice and mango is fantastic! I also tried the Thai custard on sticky rice which was so yummy. For appetizers, we tried the fish cakes (we love the taste of the kaffir leaves, and had to order a second plate), the chicken sate, the spring rolls...which were all good. The tiger steak and pork belly were a little bland. We were treated to off menu Khao Mun Kai...translated to Chicken Fat Rice which was fantastic! The new location is clean and pleasantly decorated....love the murals. read more

Thai Express is my favorite Thai place in the area. You know you've been to a spot one too many times when they know your order by heart. The portions are good, the food is excellent and the staff is always super friendly. Spice chart here is ranged 1-10, 1 being mild 10 being the devil's breath. I get 3 and that's just enough kick for me,couldn't imagine 10 yikes. read more

Thai Express - R18,so good - Thai Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

I'll never understand why this restaurant doesn't have a line out the door every night. I have loved every dish I ordered. Great for eating in or take out. read more

Thanks Yelp for this one. From the outside I was skeptical but once inside we were greeted by a friendly woman and the restaurant smelled great. We were there at lunch time and we both had great meals. read more

I have traveled to Thailand and this place is still one of my favorite for Thai food! I love the Panang curry it's so flavorful! If you want spice ask if Grandma is cooking if she is you may want to go under the usual spice you order because she brings the heat! Awesome food! read more

We got take out. The service was fast. But honestly, this was about the most bland Thai food we've ever tasted. I will try it again bc you never know. Maybe it was just an off night. read more

We eat here once a week, the service is amazing and the food is all great. The make their spring rolls and dressings from scratch and each meal is made fresh to order. Our favorite part is the included dessert in each lunch! Big recommendation here if you have never eaten Thai food or if you love it! read more

Seriously legit. Best Thai food ever. Great prices for large quantities of food. I go home with leftovers 99% of the time. Everything on their menu is perfection. Don't waste your time eating at any other Thai place in Grand Rapids. Also the staff is great and friendly, and the food is always served quickly! read more

We love this place! Found it through good reviews on yelp 2 years ago and have been pleased everytime. Pad thai is always amazing along with the complimentary crispy spring rolls. If you are looking for good thai food look no further this place is small but the food is outstanding. read more

I was excited to find a Thai place so close to home but this place is not good at all. I saw the good review about the pad Thai and now I'm thinking that person was paid to say that. What I got was not pad Thai and the egg rolls smell like whatever is in it died 3 years ago. I will stick to little Bangkok and sweetie Thai. I gave 1 star because I cannot give negative stars. read more

My husband and I went for lunch and it was packed. However we got seated and served right away. All the people that worked in there are super friendly and helpful. The place was easy to find in a plaza. Their entrance is on the back. You can tell they really take good care of this place and think about their customers. As you walk in to the place they have a space heater sitting next to the entrance to make sure people don't get chills from it being opened. I ordered pad tai while my husband ordered a green beans and chicken dish. All the lunch comes with a spring roll and choice of soup or salad. It also comes with a dessert, choice of cheese cake or ice cream (ice cream sandwich). Yes, a lot of food. We also ordered fresh spring roll that was excellent. The spring roll that came with the lunch was fried fresh so it was super hot when it came to our table. The ginger rice soup was good too. You can definitely tell and taste the freshness of all the ingredients. I like that you get to choose the spiciness of your dish from scale 1-10. I love that you get free refills for the sweet thai ice tea. Best part, we spend less than $18 and we were stuffed. I am 8 months pregnant by the way. Its pretty hard to fill me up but this lunch certainly did. read more

Just tried this place for lunch. Now I realize my results may be skewed because I had take out, and did not sit in the restaurant. Is it good? Yes. Were there things that could have been better? Yes. Mainly my largest complaint is that the rice was over cooked and mushy. Granted this could be because it was steaming hot when placed in the to go container, which is why I'm not harping on it all that much. I got the Panang Curry. The curry was thin, flavorful, and appropriately spiced (I got a 7) which is what I'd consider a medium plus compared to my other thai experiences. So I'll be going back again, and also looking to try other places in the area before picking my go to thai restaurant. read more

We've been searching for a Thai restaurant that we both like. The search is OVER!!! Everyone at Thai Express was friendly & our dinner was great! The Thai Sweet Tea was a nice change from the usual iced tea. Great food, friendly people & good prices...we'll be back. read more

Best Pad Thai I have had in about 5 years. Very impressed. I will be returning for more in the future.

I've had the spring rolls, panang curry and fried tofu. The panang curry was great, though a bit saltier than I prefer. The spring rolls are the best that I've found in the area. The fried tofu was not to my palate. The exterior texture was was tough, though the inside was fine. The place itself looks bad on the outside, but I only ever take carry out. read more

Very fresh. Great flavor. Friendly service. A great little Thai restaurant in grand rapids!

This is the best Thai food we've found in GR. My husband has traveled in Asia and likes his Thai food to be authentic. Thai Express fits the bill perfectly! It may be a hole in the wall, but don't let that turn you off. The food is amazing. read more
