I just moved to Bloomington from Chicago and I'll be honest, the food scene has been depressing so I was SO happy when I found this place because it's amazing. I'm very picky about my Thai, especially tom yum soup, and this place nailed it. You can just tell it's good authentic Thai food. Highly recommend read more

I love Thai food, so when we drove past this place I decided to look at the menu. I was immediately intrigued to see the photos of the pineapple rice that were posted. I decided to place an order... such a mistake! Starting with placing the order. I inquired about what came in the rice - carrots, onion, pineapple, bell pepper, and choice of meat. I asked about green onion and I was told it was $3 up-charge-- wow, for slices of green onion vs white onion?!? Price gauging Ok whatever, I proceed with placing my order-- 40 min!! Now, I live in a busier city than this and I've been to major cities, this amount of time is a bit ridiculous. I should have just canceled then, but my sister said their food is good, so I stayed the course. Arrived to pick up my order and stood there for about 2-3 min while the man took phone orders. I get it, but at minimum acknowledge your customer. My total was $17.95 for rice... I asked for chili sauce and he said $1 for a small side, peanut sauce $5, and soy sauce $.50... these are not reasonable up charges at all! A packet of soy sauce is customary. It smells good so, let's get to the food. It's an orange-y color with pieces of pineapple and super chunks of green pepper and onion -- The flavor is ok, not impressive at all! The presentation of the rice is NOTHING like the photos. The pineapples are sweet, but I noticed a couple of bad pineapples (they were brown and soggy!). I wouldn't recommend and I probably won't come to this place again. Poor quality, poor service... I'm guessing the only thing that must be keeping this place in business is the lack of Thai options here. Shame! read more

Best Thai food. Only order now but still worth the effort. Never disappointed! Would love if the inside opened up again.

AMAZINGGGGG!!! I moved here recently and have had the green curry once a week. My favorite meal ever I can't stop raving about it. I love it so much!! read more

Food-5 The food here is all excellent. I recommend the chicken pad Thai, massaman curry, and the crab rangoons. They're all my go to dishes. If you don't like Thai food you need to try Thai house and I'm telling you, you're gonna change your mind. Their food is always fresh and cooked to order. It's to die for. Service-5 When it's family owned, you already know they're going to care and do their best customer service. Very friendly people to say the least. Overall-5 Highly recommend trying. It's worth every penny, and make sure to leave these beautiful people a good tip read more

Pretty mediocre- not Thai at all - a quasi Thai taste - also appetizers were not good - we're old just reheated

LOVE Thai house. We get it about once a week - it's a little pricey but worth it and the portion sizes are great. I love the curry fried rice with tofu, and my husband loves the pad Thai and the Thai house fried rice. The employees are always super nice when I call and when I pick it up. read more

An amazing family run business, a must have for Bloomington and the surrounding communities. Excellent, authentic food.

Superior food. A little on the pricey side, but the quality of the food is worth it. I miss indoor dining. We would go so much more often if it wasn't just carry-out. read more

As a fan of Thai food, I try to visit every restaurant I can, and out of every Thai restaurant I've been to Thai House is the actual best. Their soups are authentic and delicious, their noodle dishes are always spot on, and I love their egg rolls and coffee. Sue can bring the heat in her dishes, which I appreciate!! If you like Thai food, this is worth a trip read more

The food was delicious! Ordered mild spicy. Don't remember exact names of what we ordered but one was fried rice with chicken and another was called Penang Noodle. We liked both the dishes. The only reason of not giving 5 is the way they asked for the tip! The lady at the counter asked for tip like she was demanding which was pretty weird and awkward. read more

Food was delicious The owner was very nice quick and prompt. Still delicious after 10 years.

Place is great. I tried the Pad Thai and the drunken noodles or Pad Kee Mow. Both were fantastic I got this at a spice level 3 and it was exactly what I wanted. Spicy enough to burn and make you put your plate down for a second but so filled with flavor you keep eating anyway. read more

Pad Thai is amazing and authentic. Owner and all staff are very friendly. They were helpful with certain dietary restrictions/ allergies.

I am an international alum at Illinois Wesleyan from Asia and travel to Thailand many times every year for both business and leisure. Let me be straightforward, Thai House of Bloomington is literally the best, especially its Pad Thai, no matter in comparison with Thai restaurants in the US or in Thailand. Hope in the next time of visit, it may bring the dining-in service back. read more

Thai House - Pad Thai combo: beef chicken shrimp - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

we were visiting Bloomington to attend an antique show. It started raining and we decided to have our dinner nearby. We found this restaurant while browsing the yelp. It was a small restaurant with a small menu. Average noise level with simple decoration. We got out table without waiting. The service was fast. The price was reasonable. I oedeted Kee Mao with shrimps and chicken. It needed little bit more sauce, but the amount of Basil was perfect. I wish the amount was food more. The chicken shumai was perfect. We had a grear meal on a rainy day. read more

Vegans and vegetarians be careful! Vegetable gyoza was actually chicken gyoza and vegan Pad See Ew (#105) contained egg. Thai House agreed to credit us for the gyoza but refused to refund or give credit for the Pad See Ew because we didn't specify 'no egg' - even though we ordered it vegan. We've been loyal customers and have never had this happen before. To have a manager argue with me about vegan food not containing any animal product and admit that they always include egg in vegan dishes unless directed not to is plain dumb, insulting , and is a red flag. Big disappointment, especially from a business that touts how friendly it is to different dietary restrictions. read more

Thai House - a meal in a plastic container - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

I love their food! I've been eating there off and on for a long time and have never had a meal that disappointed.

The food and service were awesome! We were visiting from out of state. We drove from Peoria because there is no Thai Food in Peoria. We were thinking we can dine in on Friday's night, but they only do carry-out for evening with exception of Tuesday and Wednesday lunch period. The owner was very understanding and accommodating and let us dine in. It was a great experience and the food didn't disappoint at all. We finished all the food we ordered. read more

Yesyesyes. No more needs to be said - if you are considering eating here, just order already:) Pad See Ew is maybe the best I've ever had. Peanut chicken is a favorite of mine. Pad Thai is always good. Really anything I've had here I've enjoyed. I miss eating at the restaurant but am grateful they are available for pick up. read more

Worth the hype. Full stop. Period. End of review. The only reason I'm adding this sentence is because Yelp won't let me post anything shorter. read more

Thai House - Pad Thai. - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

One of my favorite restaurants in Bloomington. Food is best Thai around. Bummer thing is this. I have been hyping Thai House for so long. I have been gone for a decade.. when I moved back I wanted to Door Dash, but they aren't in Door Dash. So tonight we drive across town craving their Mussaman Curry and Thai iced Tea. Signs all over the door indicating they only do carry out.. Feeling sad and cheated read more

The Thai house is the most authentic cuisine you can get in the Bloomington area hands down. This place never disappoints. I'm a huge huge huge fan of the pho. It's spicy, tons of flavor in the broth, fresh Thai basil, sprouts, jalapeños, plus they are generous with their noodle amount! For a girl who loves her noodles I'm always appreciative! I've gotten several other dishes here and again always completely satisfied. I've recommend this place to friends, and they have personally messaged me thanking me for the recommendation. Seriously try it out if you haven't and support your local business! read more

Food is consistently wonderful. Since pandemic, no eating in. Easy ordering & pick up

our pad thai was dry, no flavor :( our pad thai was dry, no flavor :( our pad thai was dry, no flavor :( read more

I watched a woman change her baby's diaper on the sushi prep table! Yikes! Doesn't seem very sanitary, but the food was excellent otherwise.

So I have been in this area on and off for the last few months for some work. I will be honest in saying that finding some legit Asian food can be a stretch for this particular area. Not to say there aren't options but it's a bit tricky to find that spot that is a bit more to what I see normally. I have found my fixings for Sichuan and Korean (through relationships with the owners) and I had been hearing about Thai House for a few months now and I finally decided to pull the trigger on hitting this spot up. Most of the joints in town have not resulted in a wait and usually accommodates immediate seating but i walked into this joint with the wrong expectations. It was popping on a wed night and during prime dinner time (6 pm ish). I walked in with 2 others and there was a wait for at least 30 minutes and people kept trickling in. I figured we were committed at this point so held the trigger on sticking around. The servers here were moving around here at light speed and were doing the best to take orders, clean tables, and all with smiles and cheery voices. We were finally seated and literally fired in like 10 things for food including a bunch of appetizers. Our server was a complete sweetheart who was Korean (shout out to the motherland) although I didn't catch her name.... but hope she can be our person again in the future. We ordered chicken satay, rangoons, calamari, pad see ew, beef dishes, Malaysian curry, duck dish, crab fried rice, etc.. I think you get the point.... which is we ordered a lot of food. Our server she was flying all over the place, carrying tables, picking up addl orders from our table all while speaking both Korean and English in rapid fashion. Skillz to the max. All the food was expected so of course most of it was Americanized but kind of expected. The noodles were still respectable and on pt for what I would want to see in the bay area or other places where there is a more diverse Asian population. I give this place props for the good service, being one of the better Asian food spots in the town. It will become one of the stable ones on the rotation for sure. read more

Currently staying in Bloomington for two weeks and looking for places to eat. Went to Thai House. A little disappointed they were only accepting carryout orders so I really can't comment on the ambiance. The food and service was pretty good. Not a bad choice if you're in the mood for Thai. read more

Thai House is an amazing authentic Thai restaurant. I have been coming here since living in Bloomington many years ago. It is not a very big location and can get crowded, so take out is also a good option. The menu is extensive and everything is very good. They have lunch specials that are very reasonable too. I do wish they would expand to a larger location, however this place is by far the best Thai in Bloomington/Normal. read more

Thai House - Pad Prik Kring - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

One of my favorite restaurants in bloomington!!! Spice level is solid, flavors are great, service is fast and excellent!

I'm sure I wrote a good review before, but after yesterday order don't think we are going back. Husband ordered the duck soup. NOwhere on the menu did it say there where bean sprouts, loaded with them. Pieces of duck where on he bone.who needs a fork and knife to eat soup? When we opened the order there was no rice for two dishes. Called they said I could come back to pick up some? Kidding me right? Leave my house let food get cold to pick up rice. It's standard in all Asian food. read more

I ordered Pad Thai for takeout (Spice level = Spicy) and I was not disappointed. The lime slice ‍ was included and as expected it cut through a bit of the spiciness. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the blending of flavors were great. I will definitely return for more if I return to Bloomington. read more

Thai house is always amazing. The Chicken Pad Thai is my favorite and the rolls. Staff is always super friendly and helpful if you need help on deciding on a dish. read more

My husband is not a fan of Thai food, but he loves the Thai house. We aren't local so we only get it when we come to visit my daughter but we get it EVERY time we visit my daughter. We"ve tried other Thai food restaurants and they don't hold a candle to the Thai house. So much so that he won't eat any other Thai food from anywhere else. So grateful for our visits! read more

The place: If it ain't broke, don't fix it! I used to come here in college and the inside is exactly the same. Glass over top clothed tables, big windows for lots of light, and a busy front counter. Clearly popular, it was 3/4 full during dinner last night. The location: In and amongst some sadder industrial buildings. Thai House is a gem in this area. The food: Delicious. Crab Rangoon was CRISPY. None of that gummy fried wonton stuff. Hubsy had tofu pad Thai which was outstanding and came out HOT. Just the right amount of sweetness and spice. I had the Tofu Delight which was a simple tofu and veggie dish in sauce. Needed a little salt, but came with rice and was pretty good. There is a vegetarian section of the menu, but no descriptions for the dishes. Most are pretty self explanatory based on the title of the dish. The service: Super accommodating. Cheerful and kind. Kept us well hydrated! Next time: I'm gonna have to get a noodle dish. read more

Thai House - Tofu Delight - simple dish - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

The noodle they use in their pad see ew is different from what I've had at many Thai restaurants. It's much thicker and softer ( like overcooked rice cake). I personally didnt like this texture but my husband liked it. The flavor was good tho read more

Thai House - Pad see ew noodle - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

This was an incredibly awesome meal! We had Kao Soy, Pad Kee Mao (chicken only), and Panang Curry Chicken. The wide noodles of the Pad Kee Mao were amazing, with a perfect spice level. The curry had a nice aromatic of lime, and the Kao Soy was seasoned so nicely. It was done of the best Thai food we've ever had, and we love Thai. Too bad we live too far away to come back any time soon because this place is excellent! read more

This WAS one of my favorite places in town but I've stopped going because it carry out only! I no longer want to pay more and more for less and less for food served in plastic containers that you have to take home to eat it cold! The whole concept of eating out is lost on this restaurant read more

It's great but 2nd time I got sick from tofu. Be careful with spicy and tofu folks! I Just look at the menu and see what best fits for ur tummy. I'm more on veggie side of things but tofu seems to mess our bodies up. I've puked few time last night and even today . read more

Being temporarily relocated from home, and loving Asian food, I needed to get my Thai fix on. THoB was closest to my new home, so I thought I would give it a try. I ordered Tom Yum Chicken soup and Green Curry. The Tom Yum chicken soup was extremely flavorful. I was very pleased with it. Lots of mushrooms and proper amount of chicken. Just the right amount of savory and tartness I expect in a Tom Yum soup. Good stuff. Regarding the green curry - I must say that it was extremely excellent. I am used to having green curry at my at-home go-to and it is good. At THoB, I was able to differentiate several flavors that were extremely satisfying to the taste buds. I would rate it a 9/10 (not much I have eaten garners a 10). Some people love a place and some hate it. This review is based on a single visit. Based upon the visit, I will be returning (tonight ;-) ). read more
