Thai Pepper is quick and consistent with their buffet and menu items. The dining space can get crowded during lunch time when people linger. Other times (usually after 1) it's the right atmosphere. read more

I don't know if I ordered on a bad day or what but I was so disappointed in my food! I ordered pad Thai, dumplings, and spring rolls. Nothing tasted fresh. The vegetables in the spring rolls were warm and the shrimp was so over cooked, small, and rubbery. I took them out. My dumplings tasted like the ones you can buy frozen at sams club. The pad Thai was underwhelming to say the least. I read nothing but good reviews so I'm sad that I had such a bad experience here. read more

For years, I have been a big fan of Thai Pepper. It was a great place to meet co workers & friends for the lunch buffet. But about 8 months ago, I noticed a lot of roaches in this restaurant, coming out of their walls & crawling near the buffet table. One of the last times I ate there it was clear that someone from the board of health was there, listing the many recommendations to solve their pest problems. This was a huge turn off & I did not return for months. About a month ago, I gave Thai Pepper another chance, after noticing that the restaurant had been cleaned & that their roach problem seemed to be over. My lunch that day was great & reminded me-how good Thai Pepper had been in the past. However, I went back with friends last week & was disappointed, again. It seems that the restaurant may be under new management as most of their Thai decor had been stripped from the walls & there is now a new commercial buffet table. Their new employees or maybe a new owner, lounged on a sofa in the dining room, while channel surfing on the TV overhead, like its his den & not a restaurant. Grade school children were clearing the tables, too. What is going on, here?! Our party of 4 could not get out of there, fast enough. Terrible experience. My days of giving Thai Pepper another chance are over. read more

We went here for the first time this afternoon. Everything was amazing! We eat Thai a lot and this place is one of the best we have found. Service was excellent. I just loved the owner Toy. She is adorable!! Wanted to take her home with me. read more

Thai Pepper - This is Toy the owner. I just loved her!!! - Thai Near Me - Mandeville, Louisiana

BEST Thai food on the Northshore! Very flavorful and authentic! I always get the coconut soup, beef shoots, and green curry shrimp. Very friendly staff and prompt upon ordering takeout. I will never crave Chinese again! read more

Absolutely delicious lunch buffet!!! Only available for lunch Monday-Friday. Great display with lots of options - soups, dumplings, spring rolls, fresh rolls, crab rangoon, stir fly's, noodle dishes, curry and more! They keep an eye on what's running low and constantly put out fresh food when it gets crowded!! Everything is very fresh tasting and perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend checking it out!!! read more

Thai Pepper - Lunch buffet - Thai Near Me - Mandeville, Louisiana

I've been to A LOT of Thai restaurants, but this one was honestly the best I've ever had. Everything was fresh, light and perfectly cooked. The only negative is that I don't live in Mandeville! But next time I am in town I will definitely go back. DELICIOUS. read more

What an unexpected treat!! Met for lunch here not knowing there was a buffet, and was a bit skeptical at first, but after taking a look at it decided immediately not to order off the menu and go ahead with the buffet because it was huge and varied. There were soups, starters, and an amazing papaya salad, plus 8-10 main dishes like stir fries, chicken pad Thai and other noodle dishes, and a few types of curries. Super way to experience the menu without being limited to what one could order in one visit, and it was all fresh and delicious. Definitely will be back! read more

Very Flavorful food. The buffet is an excellent deal when they have it.

The new owner opened up a couple weeks ago and I've been there at least 4 times since then. Everything here is excellent! The flavor of his sauces is by far my favorite of any of the Thai restaurants in this area now. The Drunken Noodles, Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Thai Basil, Sweet and Sour, Ginger and Garlic Sauce are all the dishes I've tried so far and every one was better than the next. read more

Thai Pepper - Pad See Ew and Ginger - Thai Near Me - Mandeville, Louisiana

I just love this place! It's definitely a hole in the wall, and the decor leaves much to be desired. However, their food more than makes up for it. My go-to dish here is the Pad Thai. Sometimes I'll get chicken, sometimes tofu, but it's always good. And don't forget: this is VERY important!!!! MANGO STICKY RICE. Try it. You're welcome. read more

Best Thai on the North Shore PERIOD!!!!! Eaten here many times and the food is always fresh and bright with flavor. Try the Spicy Basil dish and you won't be disappointed. read more

I don't know what happened to Jessy at this place, but Thai Pepper has some of the best, most authentic Thai food I have had in awhile. I have tried all the Northshore Thai restaurants, and this one is by far the best. The flavors are deep and complex. The only negative is that if you call to order takeout, you might not get what you ordered (English to Thai translations are never smooth), but in my case this was a good thing because I got introduced to some dishes I would not have otherwise tried. read more

Love this place! Great deal for lunch and my favorite Thai food in Mandeville. Also great to go food.

This place is super delicious. Best Thai Tea I've had. And the staff is extremely nice.

We have been to Thai Pepper 4 times now for takeout. Not too familiar with Thai food but wanting to try new flavors. This restaurant is phenomenal! My wife and I absolutely love everything we have tried. We really enjoy the Spicy basil fried rice with pork, yellow curry with chicken, cashew chicken, and chicken satay. The quality of the meat is great. We are very picky about meat. No issues with any of our entrees. Portions are perfect, priced right, flavors are amazing. Highly recommend giving this place a try. We will be back again and again! read more

Pro: Awesome food! Everything we've ordered has been delicious! Definitely better than any asian restaurant I've visited on the northshore. Very friendly staff. Con Their dumpster is near the entrance, so on the night before trash pickup (Sunday), the smell as you walk in is awful. read more

This place has the best Thai green curry. It's a great mix of sweet coconut and spicy with vegetables and chicken. The place is very unpretentious but the food is excellent quality. read more

Terrible. I feel bad writing this review, since I have been a regular on and off for years. The fried rolls were obviously pre-frozen, probably bought from a commissary. They were flavorless and oily. I ordered Shrimp Pad Thai, which tasted fishy and greasy. So much oil had been used in the wok that it was dripping off of the noodles. Used to order Pad Thai and it was light and fluffy back when the original owner, Toy, was the chef. Further, the server was disheveled and unkempt, wearing sweat pants, Crocs, and having oily hair that was not well managed. My family and I agreed we will NOT BE BACK. Horrible. read more

All I can say is that i feel bad for Thailand........ they lost their best chef. Thai Pepper has amazing food. Best Thai food ive eaten. Best combination fried rice ive eaten as well. Yelp wont let me select 5 stars, i would give it more stars if i could. read more

I live in New Orleans and cannot find good authentic Thai food. I was so happy when my friends took me to Thai Peppers. It was so delicious and the service was excellent. They owner sent out a complimentary appetizer of crispy spring rolls and we got Tom yum and khan soups, kee mao, pad see ew and a shrimp salad. All amazing and now I'll be craving Thai peppers from now on. Already scheming another trip to the north shore just to go here. read more

I go it a two ONLY because I enjoyed the spring rolls. I however didn't enjoy the little black bug crawl in on my plate of food nor did I enjoy the ants traveling all over the table and window area. Also the guy bringing out our food couldnt understand a lick of english so when we needed refills or had questions he had to get the other guy. I have had better thai, so i was dissapointed. read more

Under new ownership. I went in for lunch the other day. No lunch buffet anymore. The food was still good, BUT ALL of the prices have gone waaay up! read more

Best Thai on the northshore. Excellent food, great friendly service.

Awesome little Thai place. Everything we've had has been great. We usually get it as take-out. The tom yum is particularly good!

I passed by this place several times and finally decided to try it. I am not disappointed! Today was my second time here. The food is really good and the Thai fried rice with beef is superb. One of the better rice dishes I ever ate. Try the pad Thai and dumplings too. I always been a Chinese food guy only just started eating Thai food. Its very similar and just as good or better then the chinese. Prices are reasonable and seems good value for what u get. They also have a lunch buffet on the weekdays but i never tried it yet. Its a much nicer place to sit in and dine then many of the chinese take outs. I should also mention the waitress has been really friendly too. read more

I've been eating at this restaurant for years and when I moved away to Phoenix, out of all the great restaurants NOLA has to offer, this was the place I missed the most. This is going to sound crazy but I always order the Grilled Chicken Salad. As lame as that sounds, I assure you its one of the most flavorable and ridiculously spicy foods I've ever eaten and I keep coming back for more....this is definitely a gem of the northshore - no other thai in the area compares! read more

Maybe we didn't order their best dish. The wonton soup we had today was the saltiest we ever had in our lives. The basil fry rice...all the broccoli pieces were not cooked. They are as rigid as un-cooked salad. The only fine dish we had was the Panang curry. The problem is its price. Basil fry rice + Panang curry + wonton soup (small bowl) was over $26 after tax. and of course hit $30 after tip. For this kind of level I think customer deserves a higher level of Thai food. read more

My wife and I came here the other night because we were sick of the sub par thai food in Covington. The atmosphere was nice and the waitress was a very friendly Asian girl. We ordered fresh spring rolls (which ended up having meat, which is too bad since my wife's vegetarian), they were tasty and had a really good peanut sauce and sweet and sour type of sauce that came with them. I ordered pad see ew thai hot, which came out with absolutely NO spice, so I flagged down the waitress and she took my dish back to kitchen and had it respiced with no problem. My wife ordered a vegetable stir fry and it was fairly spicy and came with rice on the side. The diet coke also was brought out by the can, which honestly I was worried about about since I always drink more than one can at a time and I didn't want to be charged for all of them, but despite ordering three cans total, I was only charged one price! The prices for most of the dishes were low to fair, but I found the price for others a little high. However, the food was good and the service was above average! read more

See all

Loved it but portions could be a tad larger! For the most part it all seemed extremely fresh with exception to the doughs used in dumplings etc. I will order many more times but only because there aren't many choices over here. read more

I like to eat here. Every time we go the staff is very nice and polite although they don't speak the best English . It's a good place to enjoy a nice quiet meal. All the food is tasty and the service is good. A great quiet night out. read more

The stuffed chicken wings were excellent. We also had the clear noodles and the sticky rice. Everything was very good! We will definitely be back! read more

Best restaurant I've been to! Gotta go...lunch buffet Tuesday to Friday off the charts.

Food some of the best Thai I've ever had!! Service leaves some thing to be desired. Greeted and seated as soon as we walked in. Quick with drinks, orders, & food. Then everyone disappeared. Hey, I need more to drink. Finally had to yell into kitchen to get our check. read more

Very nice people. Everyone who works there is nice and very polite. The food is wonderful. I've never ordered something that I regretted, and they are accommodating with adjusting the order to match your tastes. Be sure to order a Thai Tea with whatever you order. It's my favorite drink there. Also, the fried plantains are outstanding. If it is your first time ordering Thai food, I recommend starting with the Pad Thai. I normally order mine with chicken and no sprouts. My other favorite is the Red Massaman Curry dish. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in the world. Go get some food from this place because it will change your damn world people.

I stopped in Thai pepper today for lunch after passing by it several times. I was excited to have my favorite Tom yum goong soup with a Thai iced coffee. I ordered a bowl of Tom yum shrimp spices and the garlic chicken and super sad to find out that they don't serve Thai iced coffee. When my soup arrived, I was a little worried because the broth was red/brown, which I believe is the northern Thai way of making the soup with chili paste, however, once I tasted it, I was even more disappointed. The broth tasted like vegetable soup. There were none of the traditional aromatics in the soup; keffir lime leaves, galangal, lemongrass, lime juice or Thai chillis. I really feel like they gave me the wrong soup. Let's hope that was the case. I took my chicken to go and ate it later in the day. It was decent, however, once you've had authentic Thai food in Thailand, it's hard to find anything that compare.. On a positive note, the staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean.. read more

I want to start by saying this used to be my favorite location in Mandeville for Thai food. But over the last few years its quality and service has degraded to an un recognizable standard that I can no longer accept. Wrong orders, missing items, and most recently and least acceptable was a large amount of dirt in the lettuce of a salad that wasn't even the one I ordered. read more
