Probably my favorite Thai restaurant in Colorado! Love the kha nom jeeb appetizer (similar to shiu mai) and khao soi! So flavorful! The coconut ice cream was also delish, and locally made. Definitely make a point to stop here if you're in this area. read more

I came into Thai Paradise after an entire day of skiing. I was immediately greeted and offered a seat. The server promptly came by to take my order. Being famished, I ordered both an appetizer and an entree. I started off with the spring rolls, which were not only tightly packed with ingredients, but also cut into bite-sized pieces. The peanut sauce, however, was bland. For my main dish, I had the pad see ew. It was absolutely delicious and contained a perfectly balanced blend of vegetables, noodles, and chicken. Moreover, unlike some Thai restaurants, this place doesn't drown their food in cooking oil. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for fast service and decent Thai food. read more

Updated review: Disappointing. The Massaman curry had nearly no curry taste. To obtain the proper curry taste, the simmering process has to be undertaken far in advance. Here, the curry sauce was runny, flavor-less and disappointing, watery, actually. The setting is great. Service is slow. Prices are fine for a resort. Tragically, this was, to me, akin to a bowl of white, average chicken meat, with hard, undercooked potatoes, accompanied by a watery sauce having little or no taste. If one was to dump white chicken meat into a pot and drop steamy water over them, toss in a few carrots? You'd unfortunately end up with this $20 plate. It seems to me that if the cooks spent more time either studying how to make, or preparing, the curry sauce, they could have a spectacular restaurant. Sorry, this time, no photos. I really wanted this time to like this restaurant. My second visit. read more

Surprisingly uncrowded for weekend lunch. Solid spot, no complaints. "Thai hot" was reasonably spicy. Pad Thai did the trick. You pay tourist prices but that's showbiz baby. read more

We were in the area and we decided to have some Thai based on reviews. I ordered the Tom Kah with chicken (bowl size) and a side of rice and was more than enough! My friend ordered the Thai Lo Mei with chicken and she said it was good! The service was good but a little on the slow side. Overall great experience. read more

Great fast and friendly service. The chicken in the tom ka gai was rubbery and not so good. Will go back, but no more chicken.

Thai Paradise is awesome! Their food is so yummy, service was great, and the food presentation is beautiful! If you want some Thai food check this place out, it's definitely worth it. I ordered the Khao Soi Curry, and I cannot rave about it enough it was great! read more

Solid Thai food! Wife and I split the basil fried rice with chicken and it was pretty good. We got mild but I wish I would have gone a step up for more flavor. The fried gyoza for the appetizer was good too. Overall solid place. Not exactly one I would recommend or stop by if I were to come back through but if your craving Thai in Ridgway or close by it won't disappoint. read more

What an awesome find in downtown Ridgeway! I haven't had such a high quality Thai food in a very long time and I would 100% go back once I am in that area again. Drunken noodles were freshly made and had the best flavors ever. Thai spicy is finally very spicy, and my SO really enjoyed it. I stuck with a medium and it was a good amount of spice for me :) Their menu has all the traditional things plus a few with a unique twist. Plenty of sitting inside and outside, and the staff was so helpful and very friendly. I highly recommend it if you are in the area and looking for a quality food! read more

Great food and good value. The service was very good. Also, we came without our dogs so sat inside and it was very pleasant. The only downside was that they would not prepare food to spicy order. Everything was not spicy and they left spice on the table to add which I guess is nice. They explained that they do this because spiciness, especially in the mountains is very subjective. read more

After days of camping, living off of prepackaged dehydrated foods and cuties, I was ravenous for some Thai food. A local that I met in ridgeway highly recommended this place! She was Thai and said that it was authentic and to watch out for spice. I bit the bait and called in a pickup order for my all time favorite Thai treat- tofu pad Thai. My order was ready quickly, pick up was fast and painless and I scurried back to my lodging to dig in. Once I started eating, I couldn't stop. I began with vegetarian egg rolls (4 in an order) and they were heavenly! The crunch and medley of vegetables, dipped in sweet and sour sauce made me want to sing and dance. Now time for the main course. A big steaming pile of noodles with tofu, egg, peanut and bean sprouts! The sauce, flavors, textures were all divine. I had enough Thai food to feed a small army and their horses and I loved every minute of it. Not only did the food satisfy my hunger but I laid in a euphoric food coma for hours to come. I will say, the mild was not spicy at all, so I can't speak for the spice here from personal experience, but it was some of the best food of my life! read more

The taste and quality cycles here. Inconsistency makes me less likely to recommend it.

The food is so good! The service is excellent! they are so kind. Would recommend to everyone I know. Get the crab cheese ragoons. Thank you so much! read more

This small restaurant has modest ambiance, the most friendly service, and delicious food. We live in Montrose which is a half hour drive away, and come here whenever we are in the area. Today was Valentine's Day, and when we had finished eating were presented with gift roses. Lovely. read more

The second star is for the nice server and outdoor seating. I'm visiting from California where we have incredible Thai food with a lot of spice and flavor which this place beyond lacked! I got pineapple fried rice and asked for medium spice, there was absolutely no spice and no flavor. We had to ask for chili sauce to add some flavor, I still hated it but my boyfriend ended up eating it and gave this place 3 stars. Other locals stated ordering "Thai hot" here at least gives it some flavor so try that. Good luck! read more

Their food is so good and authentic. I personally love spice they use and their Thai chilies. The servers are always kind and willing to help with questions. It has a chill and calm vibe inside with a water feature that is wonderful. read more

Foid was excellent. We ordered Tom Yum soup(Pot), and Pad Thai noodles with crispy tofu. Noodles were excellent. Soup was very spicy, though we asked Medium. That is the Thai Spice level, medium. They are also open for Dine In. read more

Willing to try Thai, and not disappointed! Start with Thai rolls that were super fresh. Hubby and I wanted a beer, he tried a Buddha beer, which he said was okay, but the bottle was a work of art. I ordered the Tingtsao beer, but they only had singha, but waitress was kind enough to use a sharply and scratch out name, and write the one I wanted, pretty cute and beer wasn't bad. I had the Pad Kro chicken medium heat, and it was hot! Veggies were big, could have been sliced thinner, but definitely fresh. Husband had pork veggie delight, hot! Both of us sniffled thru the meal. Would definitely try again. Also pet friendly patio! read more

Food takeout ready in time prepared to our request. Very friendly and helpful staff. Tasty and full of good surprises. Especially the pineapple fried rice. Appreciate the brown rice options. A gem in this modest mountain town. read more

Worst Thai food I've ever had! Order pad Thai - hot & there literally was no flavor or spice at all!!! Plus no rice, never not had rice with it & WAY overpriced. I'm very very disappointed read more

I am very surprised how delicious the food was here!!! I came in with very little expectations, but walked out super full, satisfied and extremely pleased. Seats were set up outside to accommodate social distancing. They took orders at the counter inside then bring your "take out" order to you outside with full paper plates and silverware. This is a hidden gem tucked in the middle of nowhere, packed with lots of punch! Portions were great, seafood was fresh and taste on point. If you are looking for true authentic Thai food, this is it. The owners (husband and wife) are the chefs and they do a darn good job. read more

the food is amazing I specially love ordering drunken noodles and crab Rangoon they are just so good. The service there is amazing such friendly people . I also love it there because you can either eat there or order take out, it's also creates an in atmosphere perfect for both romantic dinners and casual gatherings every dish is a masterpiece crafted with precious and passion. read more

Amazing food, amazing service! I got the curry and it was fabulous! 10/10 would recommend

This place is delicious, and they are doing takeout during Covid. I recommend the coconut soup, curry (I tried the red and it was great), and the vegetable spring rolls were super fresh and delicious. read more

Excellent food every time we have been. Always surprised at how good the food is in Ridgway, and Thai Paradise is no exception.

Yum!!! We had 3 dishes, the drunken noodles, massaman curry and the Thai lo mien that were all knock outs. Rarely do all of the entrees come out equally fantastic but it happened. Great amount of meat in all dishes & we left very full and happy. read more

I was quite skeptical to try Thai food in Ridgway. But I am quite honestly blown away by this place. I have had my share of Thai food both in Los Angeles and Las Vegas... and this is the best Thai food I have ever had!!! The crab Rangoon was fresh, crispy and actually had crab meat in it. The Thai rolls were thin and filled with great vegetables. We had both the yellow and red curry and were really happy with them. The Tom yum soup was zesty and flavorful. To top it all off, service was impeccable. read more

Ate here multiple times after skiing Telluride in 2018 and 19. Went back this February and food was awful, not traditional Thai and no where near previous experiences. Staff was very unfriendly. Decided to try again in March with disappointing results. We are a party of 12 plus so a large financial output to be disappointed with about ten meals. Flavorless meals poorly presented and not memorable. We travel a lot so are good judges. Found out as we were leaving that the business had sold. The previous owners were wonderful, caring and friendly. Loved children and made them feel special. Sadly another good business gone. Won't return. read more

Can't skip this one! Nothing generic or unsavory. Superb service and food complimented by a well-decorated atmosphere. Tom Kha was a refreshing start. Panang curry was a wonder: haven't had too many other places compare in richness of flavor. Scallops were a great option in addition to the regular tofu, chicken, etc. Brown rice hit the spot. Some sushi is offered as well. Ridgeway is lucky to have this! read more

Had a great dinner here with kind service. Thai dumplings were delicious, as were tofu/veggies w/peanut sauce and drunken noodles. Like many restaurants in small towns in Colorado, they may have had a labor shortage, but the waitresses got things done as quickly as possible. read more

Food might be good but the wait is ridiculous. Phone was off the hook for call in orders

I really wish I could give them 5 stars as I do really like the food. I have eaten here a few times as I try to go when I am in town, which is about once every 2 months. The last time I went in I was told that I couldn't sit at the tables and only had the bar option due to my being a single party. I have been seated there before as a single party, so not sure why that night was different. The two people that walked in with me were seated right away at a table. Not sure I will be back after the lack of care shown. read more

LOVED the outdoor patio and the atmosphere of this place. So cute and pretty flowers in the summertime. I typically order Green Curry when I go to Thai restaurants but I had to try the banana curry because I have never seen that on a menu before. I was VERY pleased by this meal choice. I will now be looking for Banana Curry at every Thai place I go to but I am sure this is an original dish from this restaurant. read more

My rating is solely for the items we ordered. Pad Thai and Yellow Curry. We also ordered brown rice with it. When we arrived waiting time was 45 mins which I understand because of to go orders + 3 tables waiting for their food. Girl who took our order was very friendly and quickly took our order. We love Thai food and ate all over the world including where it originated from. Yellow Curry was the worst I have ever tried. Literally NO TASTE but water with some tint of coconut milk. We were so excited to eat Thai when we learned Ouray and Ridgway has it but with 30$ for above items, money went into the drain. Not to mentioned, they didn't even include brown rice that we paid for. Pad Thai was decent. It could have been much better. Will definitely never return. read more

This place is seriously so good and authentic. Everything was so delicious and the people were even better. We will definitely be coming back when in town again read more

We finally tried Thai Paradise this visit to Ridgway and WOW - it did not disappoint. High-quality and super fresh ingredients.

This spot is yummy, fresh, and very authentic ! The apps were ON POINT, Crab Rangoons were the best we ever had!! Our main dishes were a little to spicy for us to enjoy, next time will order less spice haha! But very fresh and good food read more

Truly a hidden gem in the middle of Ridgway! They food is so fresh and perfectly seasoned! Our group of friends always enjoys the drunken noodles and Thai fried rice. The portions are big, which allows for delicious leftovers! While it can get really busy at times, which affects the service, the food is that delicious that we keep coming back for more! read more
