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

Admittedly go there much more often when it's cold. Ignoring the fact that they have fantastic Pad Thai, seafood delicacies and dumplings year round...Thai House is my GOTO for spicy soup. There are 2 or 3 Pho-like noodle/broth bowls that blow everything else in town away. Some are naturally hot-as-hell and a few you can dial up as 'needed', but generally speaking 3 star-spice outta 5 is hot enough for most...and given the clearing of my upper respiratory and sweat-bead at the top of my forehead, count me among them. This stuff hits the spot. As does the best....fortune-cookie....ever. read more

Thai House - Spicy soup time! - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

I've been here twice and loved the food. The second time I was here it was around 5-5:30 on a Saturday. We were able to get a table fast and order quickly. The problem was that we waited an extremely long time for our food. The waitress was great in making sure our drinks were refilled. The pineapple fried rice was delicious. I love the pineapples as they were juicy. I always love rice and this is my go to whenever I go to a Thai restaurant. I do wish it was bigger but it was still satisfying. I'd definitely come here again and I've even recommended this restaurant to my friends. read more

Best Thai Food EVER! No Thai place you go to will ever compare. That's out of state included. Have been going here for years and it never disappoints. read more

As always, the food is always wonderful fresh hot services always great. They don't ask me if I want to leave a tip

I go to Thai house a lot for their good food. I usually get the tum yum (hot pot and noodle soup), green curry, and pad thai. Tum yum is my favorite. I tried No.40 noodle soup this time. It was delicious at first, but after consuming 2/3 of the food, it would be like any other fish at Thai House-the flavor is too strong and single for you to continue. But overall Thai House serves good food. And it's the first time that I noticed the interesting elephant image on the wall...hmmmm read more

They yelled at my wife when she asked for refund for adding eggs to my vegan order. They further went on to explain to us that vegan doesn't mean animal product free. It was the manger who communicated her definition to us. read more

Great service and delicious fresh food! Not open on Mondays but make sure to check out their vegetarian menu! They make excellent vegan food just make sure to ask for accommodations and they will not disappoint! A little pricey but by far the best Thai in Bloomington! E We ordered Pad Kra Prao, Fried egg rolls, Pineapple Fried Rice and Pad See Ew! All Vegan! read more

Delicious food. Best pho in Normal, but if you ask for a kick in it be prepared.. Was so tasty though.

Best Thai food I've ever had, including in NYC, LA, Chicago, and other big cities. Really can't go wrong, but I usually get Pad See Ew or Mussaman Curry. Appetizer platter is also really yummy. We usually do takeout, because you will be here well over an hour if you sit down. Very slow service. Food still makes this worth 5 stars. Closed on Mondays! Update: knocking this down to four stars. Their phone is always busy when you try to order pick up at dinner time. They have no online service and aren't part of Door Dash or Uber Eats. Combined with a really slow in restaurant experience, they just make it hard to do business with them. read more

The food was excellent. I tried the pineapple fried rice. The place isn't the biggest and the service is just ok. They don't accommodate big groups well. I was sad i couldn't have dinner with my friends but i wouldn't mind returning to try more on the menu. read more

Thai House - Pineapple Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

Everything was going great till they forgot the chicken. They offered to throw my perfectly cooked mixed vegetables back on the heat to add the chicken. The chef refused to cook me my chicken until the waiter told her I was on a restricted diet. The chicken came steamed like rubber. Then I was double charged for the tardy chicken. And was basically told to eat the upcharge. Also we were given the smaller menu. Not cool, not very Thai. read more

The best Thai food I've ever had. I highly recommend them. You're missing out if you don't experience them!

Finally made it out to try this place and as a lover of Thai food, I am glad I did. Now when I get a craving for Thai I can come here instead of waiting for my next trip to Cali. The place is small but cozy. Service was pretty fast once we were seated. We liked everything we ordered - chicken satay, seafood fried rice and the Malaysian curry with beef. Definitely looking forward to trying more on the menu and updating the review as I do. read more

A hidden gem in Bloomington. This Thai restaurant is a real winner. My daughter and I ordered chicken Pad Thai, hers spicy mine regular heat. I thought mine was spiced nicely, I suspect hers was a bit too spicy for her, but she finished most if it and took a doggie bag home!! We also enjoyed wontons as a starter The Thai house packs people in to this small space, but service is efficient and I thought the closeness of the tables added to the homey ambiance. read more

Thai House - Pho and Yellow Curry - Thai Near Me - Bloomington, Illinois

Seven years ago we moved away from Illinois, and last week we moved back. The Thai House was one of our first dinners when we got back. I'm sad that (at least right now) it's carry-out only, but I'll carry it out! Some of the best Thai food I've had anywhere! So glad to be able to run there for dinner again. read more

I personally did not find the food to be very good. It was mediocre at best. There was no hot tea and the iced tea I had was really just cold water, no flavor. The restaurant had absolutely NO ambience. read more

The food is authentic and delicious. We are so fortunate to have The Thai House in our community.

Best Thai in Bloomington. They're carry out only still. Their menu is online, so call ahead and order.

When I first got the the restaurant the outside kinda looked like it wasn't going to be good. But boy, the food was amazing. Everything we ordered was delicious... I was shocked by like how on point the taste was... kinda similar to Taste of Thai in Florida. If anyone has ever been to taste of thai it is phenomenal. I ordered the pad kee mow, asked for it to be THAI hot.... for those who loves spicy foods, I dare you to try Thai hot. my friend ordered the tom yum and a couple other items that was not on their regular menu. On the weekends they stick to a solid menu with simple items, but if you go on the weekdays where they're not as busy, you can ask for Thai items that are more delicate and they take longer to perfect but they do a wonderful job of it. My opinion on the Thai tea, it is a bit too sweet, I like it sweet enough but man they dump the whole bag of sugar in mine or something. Their thai iced coffee is good on the other hand. If anyone is around Bloomington area and you're craving for some good thai food, stop by here. There was another thai restaurant somewhere in Bloomington but when I tried it, they weren't as good at all. read more

This is authentic Thai food, and a popular place. The dining room is not very large so you may have to wait on a table. They have an extensive menu. The crab rangoons are good. The wait staff are friendly and hard working. You pay at the counter as you leave. read more

I have never been a huge fan of any type of Asian cuisine. My girlfriend, on the other hand, is big fan of Asian food. She has gone to Thai House with friends but has wanted me to go. I decided that I would give it a try. I was not a big fan of the first dish I tried. I was willing to go with her again anyway. I finally ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice. This dish is amazing. You get your choice of chicken, beef, pork, vegetable, or tofu. The chicken works well with the dish so I order that exclusively. The dish also includes slice onions, bell peppers, chunks of pineapple and cashew nuts (Keep this in mind if you have an allergy). The best part is the presentation! I was excited to see my food was served inside a hollowed out half of a pineapple. Now it's one of my favorite dishes. The only issues I have had at the Thai House is the customer service could be better but then again the service isn't horrible. read more

Excellent food! You get so much and my son loved it too. We have gotten it to go a few 3 times. Perfect every time. Everybody is so nice too. Can't ask for more. Enjoy Yum read more

I have been to Thai House many times. Now that I have moved back to Bloomington it will be a frequent stop for me. I always order the same two things. I start with the Tom Kha Kai soup. I love the coconuttiness, it's perfect. Then for my entree I always go with the Mussamon (sp?) Curry with Tofu instead of meat or seafood. I'm not a vegetarian, I just prefer my curry with Tofu. I LOVE the sweet potatoes in this stuff. I usually wind up taking half of it home, because after the soup I can not finish all of the curry. The Thai fortune rolls you get with the check are yummy too, much better than boring ol' fortune cookies at a Chinese place if ya ask me! Also, grab a tamarind candy on your way out, also totally yummy. Also I realize coconuttiness is not a word, but I believe it gets the point across despite that :) read more

I'm hooked on the chicken in this place. Usually when I order chicken anything from a Thai restaurant, it is dry and bland. This place has been consistent in their marination with chicken. I ordered chicken satay this time and OMG! The chicken is coated with a honey-glazed. One bite was all it took to fall in love. It was crunchy on the outside and very juicy and tasty inside. It was so good, I ordered another order. read more

After reading the reviews, we decided to try this place. All four of us had Thai before & we knew what we should expect from a good reviewed Thai restaurant. Friend #1 - Ordered Crisp Duck & Thai Tea Friend #2 - Beef & vegi stir fried Friend #3 - Pineapple Fried rice Me - Duck Curry & Pad Kee Mao Verdict! #1 - It was very nice. Duck was moist & the house sauce was lovely. I asked the server if the duck was already fried & in the warmer and she said they have to fry them when they receive the order. So for this dish, we all gave two thumps up. #2 - This dish wasn't good. The beef had some weird flavor. Tasted like frozen chicken breast Vs. fresh chicken breast... that kind of weird flavor. We all gave two thumps down. #3 - Surprisingly nice. This friend had real Thai foods in Thailand so when he gave one thump up, we all gave additional thumps up. Me - Duck curry was nice but not "wow! this is amazing". Eating Thai for over 15 years... I can say I had better but since we are in Bloomington, IL I will say it was better than I expected? But I have to say something about Pad Ke Mao. This is the most common dish when you visit Thai place. Simply when you order the most basic & common dish and nothing like what you had... I normally give two thumps down. It was too salty & too sweet. The noodles were all too fat & looks like a pig skin (my friend asked me if I was eating pig skin not knowing I was eating noodle). I had to send the dish back & asked them to make it less sweet & salty also little spicier. When it cam back, it was better than before but still salty & still two thumps down. Would my friend & I come back? Probably not... definitely not for any noodle dish or beef. But for curry & fried rice, we would. Oh... never mind. We are just visiting & we don't think that we will fly from other State to just have curry & fried rice.... Sorry. read more

Love this place. Best egg rolls and peanut sauce. Really good chicken pad Thai. Was still takeout only before 4th of July. Looking forward to it as a full opening, but was definitely a staple during the shutdown. read more

As much as we miss dining out, Thai house is a go to for delivery! Everything is super delicious and the staff are always incredibly friendly. read more

I have eaten here 3 times and every experience was a 10/10. Their sweet and sour shrimp and pad kra prao with rice is so comforting and filling. Pad thai is good too but what makes thai house so extraordinary is its crab rangoon. Please order the crab rangoon! You won't regret it!! read more

Always amazing food. Been going for the last 10 years, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful.

This little place is a hidden gem. Delicious food. Good variety. Eat here. Your tummy will thank you.

We just moved here from a place that has a lot of good to excellent Thai food restaurants and so we tried this place with great hope and foolish optimism. It's really, REALLY awful. We tried 4 different dishes to get a fair sampling and it was very, very clear from the start that these folks are cooking CHINESE FOOD (not even good Chinese food) with a little sugar, chile pepper and thai basil thrown in there for effect. The smell, the taste, the look...completely wrong and very unappetizing. I guess we'll be learning to cook our own Thai food. read more

Love this place. It's delicous and fast. My favorites are the Pad Kra Prao because I am a mushroom lover and the Panang curry. Oh and the Spicy Eggplant... Heck, I can't think of a thing on the menu that I don't get along with! read more

As usual, Bloomington Thai House delivered a great meal. Lunch with my visiting dad and the hoard of his children that live in the area, we came here without a reservation for a weekend lunch. We were seated quickly and all had water immediately. Appetizers: We ordered the chicken satay and eggrolls. The satay was delicious, though over priced for only four skewers, even if the pieces of meat were larger. Personally, the eggrolls tasted weird, more of what I would expect from a Chinese restaurant roll (maybe I wasn't expecting the meat). Others at the table enjoyed them however. Meal: My best friend, comfort in times of happiness and sadness, a food that woos my mind, heart and soul, the chicken fried rice. And it was f*cking delicious. Unfortunately, I'd shoved numerous apps down the hatch and I could only finish half. Fortunately, it reheats like a beauty. Double delicious. **For first timers, the outside of the building and area look a bit sketchy. Buck up and go for it, because you won't regret it. Besides if you need proof of cleanliness, there is a large window looking into the kitchen in the hallway on the way to the bathroom. Kitchens with something to hide don't usually give you a bay window for viewing. read more

Always on point and some of the best Thai food I've ever had. Just wish I could get it delivered.

Thai iced tea was nice and sweet. Had Pad Thai and was pleased with the flavor. They put the crushed peanuts on the side of the dish for me to spread over. Noodles were not as wide as some I've had but the flavor was decent. Portion was just right and left enough to take home. A definite Thai favorite of mine is Tom Ka Gai soup. Theirs was labeled "Tom Ka Kai" (coconut chicken soup). I have tried this soup every time I go to a Thai restaurant and ieach place makes it a bit different. Thai houses' was sweeter vs spicy or brothy, and it had a nice strong lemongrass taste; chicken and whole mushrooms and onion slices I think. Went at 5:30/45 on a Sat night and first seemed too quiet. Then it filled up quick! Staff was friendly. Restaurant is small/med in size. Easy to find off of Morrissey Drive, not too far from Oakland. I think used to be the original/first Steak 'n Shake building. Interior is simple, typical with lots of plants. Having spent time in Thailand I tried a Thai phrase on my server but then she said that she was not from Thailand LOL. Good food for a first visit. Most of my experience with Thai restaurants are up in the western Chicagoland area. So I was decently impressed with the quality for the B-N area. Look forward to trying it again. read more

Best Thai food in Central Illinois. We will drive from Peoria! We haven't tried much besides the pad Thai, but no one in Peoria or Bloomington-Normal makes a better one. read more
