    Good visit, with good food, good service & a nice environment. Expansive menu with a variety of things to try.

    Genuinely one of the most flavorful meals I've ever in the Charlotte area. Would absolutely come here again.

    I feel this is the best Thai House location. Their service and quality are always great. The space is quaint and not too large, I have never had to wait more than a few minutes for a table. I love the Knock Out rolls, and the Pad Krapraw. The Pad Kee Mow and Red Curry are great too.

    This was my first time eating Thai in a long time. I ordered the chicken pad thai with a little spice. The portion was huge as I couldn't finish it all. Next time I will try something else as this dish was good but simple. Pad thai is a pretty simple dish for Thai though. My boyfriend got the Kang Pa and loved it!!! My parents are vegan and also love this place and have many great options for them. The dish came out fast and hot. Will definitely be back to try more.

    $75 for this???  I won't be back

    $75 for two entrees. They were bland. I didn't rate any Thai flavors at all. My rice was so hard I couldn't eat it. I will never order again.

    Complimentary Rice Soup

    If you are in for authentic Thai, make sure to mention Thai style. I was blown away, definitely was not expecting this good of a Thai food in the middle of Cornelius!

    Not a lot of Thai /Asian off Hwy 77. I visit the area frequently for work. This is good quality Thai food. I got a pork dish but was expecting pork cut up and not ground up pork. Still was good.

    What was delivered...

    One of the worst experiences we've ever had from a delivery. Menu pictures and descriptions are absolutely nothing like what was delivered. We ordered the King and I and Rice Soup with Chicken and what we received was 5 pieces of tiny, boiled shrimp and a nominal amount of minced chicken in broth. We called to complain and clarify and Nash told us that the kitchen would apologize to us and they'd do better next time. And when we tasted it, everything was bland and tasteless. Look at the menu for King and I and the pic below of what was delivered and save your money and time.

    I went in with high expectations for this place, but unfortunately, it was a big letdown…read more Food - 1/5 The food felt very Americanized, like it relied heavily on pre-packaged or bottled sauces rather than fresh flavors. It lacked soul and that authentic Thai touch. The house noodles were pale and bland, with shrimp that added little to no flavor. The Bangkok chicken was overly sweet and tasted like it came straight from a bottle. The fish with chili was also strange--several dishes had lettuce mixed in, which felt out of place and didn't work with the flavors. Overall, it's hard to describe the taste, but it reminded me of a slightly better version of P.F. Chang's rather than real Thai cuisine and it's not even the same cuisine. That's the best thing I can compare it to. Service - 4/5 The staff was friendly, and my pickup order was quick and efficient. One downside was that I wasn't asked about spice level when ordering. I didn't even know they used a 1-5 scale until I overheard another customer's order, which was disappointing. Overall I wouldn't return. I'd rather drive an extra 10-15 minutes for a more authentic Thai meal with real depth, culture, and flavor. For 75$ I hardly feel it was worth it.

    I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!!!! What a hidden gem. We walked in for a quick bite, not…read moreexpecting much, but we were blown away with the meal. The service was very very quick and the staff were incredibly kind, and the atmosphere was lively but not too crowded. We ordered the pad Thai, which was very saucy and seasoned beautifully, with perfectly cooked shrimp. We also got the Thai Royal Chicken which was crispy yet juicy, and the sauce complemented the rice perfectly. AND the dishes came with egg drop soup! We were so satisfied, and the best part was, it was so affordable ($11.75 per dish). 10/10, definitely worth a try!

    Had dinner at Thai House - University and it delivered exactly what a neighborhood Thai spot…read moreshould. We ordered the Basil Fried Rice with chicken (added a sunny egg on top), Pad Thai, and the beef skewers. The basil fried rice was the standout. Great wok flavor, rice wasn't soggy, and the egg with crispy edges tied everything together perfectly. I ordered medium spice -- just right for me, although my wife felt the heat immediately. Thai medium is not American medium, so order wisely. The Pad Thai was solid and balanced -- not overly sweet, good noodle texture, generous portion. The beef skewers were tender with nice char and paired well with the peanut sauce. Service was friendly, food came out hot, and portions were generous. Now for my slightly controversial take: in my experience, Asian restaurants are almost never 5-star places. The magic zone is 3.5 to 4 stars. That's where you usually find the most authentic, no-frills, flavor-first cooking. If a place is too polished, something is probably toned down. Thai House sits right in that sweet spot. Would absolutely come back.

    A solid 3 stars. Not the best thai restaurant in the area but good enough when we don't want to…read moremake a farther drive. Service is decent enough for a couple people but really lacking if you come as a big group - wrong orders, rude attitude, confusing communication. Their pad see ewe is good but on the saltier side. Portion sizes are fine, spice levels are lower than we'd expect from a Thai place but maybe for the best? The restaurant is big enough that I wouldn't expect any long waits.
