If you are looking for authentic Thai delicacies, this is your place. However, unless you know what you are buying remember this word...MILD!!!!!! Even the mild spice level got my nose running (I know, tmi). The ambiance is nothing fancy however, the music level and selection was really nice. And even though I went during the busy lunch rush, service was fabulous!!! read more

The only reason this place is getting at least a 3 is because my friend likes this place and says our experience was not typical of what it's been like for her in the past. Since she likes this spot I won't totally downvote it. Also, she liked her food. But if I was solely basing it off of my own experience, I'd give them a 2! When we arrived there were maybe 12 people in the place. Not full, but clearly too much for a single person to attend to efficiently. There was only one young guy taking all the orders , bringing the food, bussing the tables, and taking the checks. He had an adorable little girl who was also helping (she's another reason the rating isn't lower--she was a darling!) The guy was pleasant, but it took a long time to even take our order. Then to bring our food. We even had to ask for utensils. I sent my food back because my pad see ew had black pepper on it which I've never seen before. I tried it and it tasted "ashy" for lack of better word. I THOUGHT it was the pepper--but the second dish which appeared not to have the pepper in/on it still tasted ashy. I'm thinking that perhaps their flying pan was kind of burned/ashy. It wasn't pleasant. Also there was a whole peanut in my dish. My friend liked her food though. read more

Despite the fact that they had 4 empty 4 top tables (2 side by side), hostess refused to sit a party of 5. I asked to push 2 tables together and she said absolutely not. So no idea if the food is good. read more

Maybe we didn't order the best dishes. We tried the drunken noodles and spicy pepper beef, but both lacked flavor. The beef was sliced very thin and ended up tough, and the noodles were clumped together. On the positive side, the vegetables were fresh and cooked just right. We plan to come back to try the curries and appetizers and see if those are better. read more

Great spot for authentic Thai cuisine at very reasonable prices. The buffet format lets you sample a wide variety of dishes, and the chicken along with the spring rolls really stood out for me. The staff was friendly, service was fast, and the Thai desserts are absolutely worth trying. read more

If you ask for Thai hot, prepare for a delicious and hurtful meal. I have never understood people who enjoy pain. But then I realized that I like Thai hot food. Am I one of those people? There is no telling but your boy sure loves him some incredibly hot Thai food. The server looked at me with a little side eye when I ordered my food that way. But Thai hot I asked for and Thai hot is what I received. Hell yes! Bring on the heat. Thai Pepper is an incredibly popular lunch spot in BR. So popular that when we went here we saw like five other people from work here. Despite being packed, service was friendly and we received our food quickly. My entre was Ginger delight with chicken. Get this. How they were able to blend the magical flavor of all the spices and have a heat level of 1000 is impressive. If you like heat and flavor, get this. If you like flavor and no heat, get this but keep it mild. If you are wondering just how hot Thai hot was, my sinuses were completely clear, my face was red, and I was sweating like I had just walked into a Catholic Church. It was awesome and I can't wait to go back. read more

Thai Pepper - Ginger Delight with chicken - Thai Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

FANTASTIC delicious Thai food. My sister and I found this lovely little place on Apple Maps driving back home to Florida. Yelp showed great reviews and we were in the mood for THAI! I ordered the chicken basil rice and my sister got the tofu pad Thai. Both were absolutely YUMMY (mild had little to no kick). One of our favorite meals on our ten day trip. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! And the service was perfect. read more

This is authentic Thai food. Weird, creepy location, but well worth it. Would go back should I find myself in the area. I tried veggie spring rolls and pad see ew with tofu. I took them to go, and they packed the spring rolls with a clever technique, cutting the corners out of the go-box, which allowed the steam to escape and kept them from losing their crunch! They come with a tasty dipping sauce, too. The pad see ew was delightfully savory with tons of flavor and the veggies were cooked just right. It was a little spicier than I'm used to, but I did ok with it. Been avoiding spice because of stomach issues. The portions were quite respectable--I saw other diners eating, and everyone had a heaping mound of food on their plate. The ambiance is nice; I'll eat there next time. It also looks like it's frequented by the local Thai population, which I took to be an extra badge of authenticity. read more

It's going to hit every time. Now, they give you options for spice level but even when I check mild it's still super spicy. I don't mind the spice I just don't like unbearable spice where it's just hot and you can't enjoy the taste. Anyway, my go to dishes are the chicken satay and pad kee mao. read more

We saw this place on TikTok of all places & decided to give it a try. We were NOT disappointed. I think this building has been many different things over the years but I'm really hoping this has staying power. The service was efficient & aware without being intrusive. The environment was clean & quaint. The food was AMAZING with ample portions. There were a ton of people in & out for pick-up orders. We WILL be back! read more

One of my absolute fav local places to eat. My go to is always the sizzling peanut with chicken, and it's to die for. Also great options are the pad Thai, sour soup, and fried rice. The service is impeccable, the owner is so sweet! And the ambiance of the building is immaculate. It's a smaller restaurant, and the interior is this beautiful wood paneling that's so calming to be surrounded by when you're eating your meal. read more

We came to this restaurant at 1 pm on a Wednesday and there was MAYBE 10 people in the restaurant at the time and they refused to seat us since they were "busy" and they closed in an hour! HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED! Terrible customer service!!! Will NOT be back!!! read more

Found this gem on a whim! One of the best meals of had from Asian cuisine in a very long time. Portions are huge. Share! We ordered the Tom Kah Chicken soup. Super authentic flavors grew more prevalent each bite. The garlic pepper beef and the chicken fried rice filled us both with tons to take home. I could eat the garlic pepper chicken every day. This may be my new go to place! Don't come here for decor or ambience. Come her for full flavor and a fantastic authentic meal. Service was also outstanding! read more

Had an absolutely delicious lunch here with a small group. Prices were incredibly reasonable and all of the food was delicious.

Great food. Very very spicy at the mild level. Service is wonderful and ambiance is small but inviting.

I ordered over the phone during lunch time. I chose the green curry with vegetables. The portion was adequate. The spiciness level was just right, as I ordered the second from the hottest. I was initially weary as the green curry wasn't green but it was still very flavorful. The preparation time was quick and they provided me with utensils and napkins in my to-go order. I would order from here again. read more

Covid killed the greatest secret in Baton Rouge: the Thai Pepper lunch buffet. For two decades I was a regular visitor, gorging myself to the brink of bursting on more than one occasion. But unfortunately, it is no more, and I haven't been back since. The food is wonderful, but I have an enormous appetite, and I just can't justify paying $50 for what before only cost me $10. read more

My daughter cannot eat gluten and this restaurant is a great gluten-free option! The food is extremely flavorful and fresh. The majority of the menu items are gluten-free with the exception of things that are fried in the fryer. They have a basil fried rice that I think it's exceptional! I have tried several dishes and have never been disappointed. Thai Pepper is Kinda a best kept secret in Baton Rouge . In my opinion Celiac people can give it a try with complete confidence. We have eaten there several times and my daughter has never been glutted. read more

Wow! This gem is amazing! Absolutely love the food and the service! So far, I've tried the pineapple curry, the green curry, the wontons, the coconut soup, the fried rice, the garlic pepper dish, and the pad see ew...everything is just so delicious!!!! read more

Thai Pepper - Pad See Ew...amazing!! - Thai Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

The food was authentic and super tasty!!! Pad see ew was 10/10! The peanut sauce made the cool fresh rolls so yummy! Great portion sizes. We also tried the basic chicken tenders which were crispy and yummy but wouldn't say they're a must try. The green curry was 12/10!!!! Coconut-y and the perfect amount of spice. Our favorite!!! Food came out super quick, was fresh, and service was great. It's a small, hole in the wall homey vibe. We will be back! Love to support a family owned business! read more

Ok so this hole in the wall joint doesn't look like much in the outside but the flavors are authentic! It's hard to find authentic Thai food to my liking. My go to is always pad Thai! That's how I judge my food! I really like my vegpad Thai. It wasn't overly salty. A bit sweet but had plenty of fresh veggies including homegrown bean sprout! It still tastes great the next day!!! Will be back soon! read more

Awesome Thai. Be in no hurry when you go. Service was a bit slow, but I think they just alow for you to settle. Staff very attentive when engaged. read more

First time I ate here was in 2015. And a few times but I've never written an updated review. Well I decided to do my update because I ate a dish this evening. That I somehow missed on my previous visits to this restaurant. I had the Black Rice Dessert which was absolutely delicious. No I did not stop here for the purpose of eating the black rice dessert. I actually stopped in to get the pad thai which I did. Now back to the black rice dessert. This is one of the best tasting desserts I've eaten in a long time. The lady that took my order was fantastic. Great food and absolutely great service. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurant in baton rouge. I miss the lunch buffet so much which is closed due to the pandemic situation. Now its a la carte but the taste is still so amazing. It completes my asian and spice cravings from time to time. This time around we ordered fried wontons they came with a shrimp filling and a spicy sauce. It tasted good but was a little too oily. We also ordered a chicken pad tai and a Basil fried rice both on the high spicy side. They were so fresh. I loved the crisp taste that come from perfectly heated wok used to make the fried rice. The pad tai had a perfect balance with the spice and a little tinge of sweet taste and the crunch and crisp from the fresh sprouts... ready to go back soon and cant wait for the buffet to come back.. read more

The pad Thai was gas, some of the best I've had in the state, service was super quick

Ordered the Pineapple Curry with Vegetables - Went with "Spicy" and it was yumm spicy!!

When it comes to Thai food in Baton Rouge, this is as good as it gets. The food is authentic, the portions are large, and the flavors are incredible. The food at this restaurant stands out amongst others about as much as the exterior stands out (t's bright pink and funky) and it's not the most glamorous spot, but it's homey, the service is good, and you will certainly leave here pleased. Check it out, this place is good for the soul. read more

When I got to thai pepper, it was pretty busy. One of the servers greeted and helped me as soon as I walked through the door. My purpose for visiting today was to pick up lunch to go. I've been craving their larb and pad Thai, which both tasted amazing today. I also decided to try out their sautéed eggplant. The buffet selection was clean and had the same food selection as usual. This is such an easy place to choose for a quick and cheap lunch. Getting take out usually costs under $10 for me. Highly recommend :) read more

The decor is standard but nothing amazing, but oh the food was delectable. I ordered the a Pad Thai with shrimp. It was huge! The tofu was crispy and flavorful and would have been enough without any added protein. They have me 7 shrimp in my Pad Thai. I honestly couldn't even eat all the shrimp, let alone all the noodles. I loved their Pad Thai sauce. All too often, Thai restaurants Americanize Pad Thai and make it too sweet but this was perfection read more
