I love this place! Always so yummy and fast! Highly recommend for lunch or dinner! Hot and Spicy soup is always so good! I love the Tom Ka soup with shrimp. I get the Ben wen su noodles with shrimp and beef weekly. I also LOVE the massaman curry with chicken or shrimp. I always have leftovers for the next day as well. read more

Sad excuse for Thai food. Really terrible bland and made me wish I hadn't even eaten it. They have very little veg dishes and their fried spring rolls were not as good as frozen Trader Joe's. The pad Thai was bland and really terrible, the curry was equally bad. Skip this one and try somewhere else. read more

It appears as if they changed owners in the last week. Phone number doesn't work and they gave me a menu with the new number on it. Also the people who used to work there are gone. I think it is still very good, just a little different. read more

One of the best Thai places ever. I'm a creature of habit so Pad Kee Mow is my go to Thai dish. This one is yummy, enough for two. My husband gets the curry chicken and says it's awesome, but always gets an extra bowl of rice. The woman who runs the place also cooks the food. She has great travel tips too--ask her about the latest country she's visited. read more

Knowing that we would be going to the wasteland that is the North Shore, we scouted out some elite reviews for some decent food options. John L.H. raved about this place and since I like to prove him tasteless, we decided to try it out. Nice space, good service, lovely table settings and plates, but the food is the big issue with me. We shared an order of cheese rolls (pretty much crab rangoons). The Girly ordered hot tea and a daily special of Redfish with veggies (level 3 hot). I had iced tea, and the Pad Prik Khing (Level 4 Thai Hot). The cheese rolls were quite good, the shells were crispy and the inside creamy. There is a sweet/sour dipping sauce with it but in all honesty, I preferred them alone. They were just really well done. My Pad Prik Khing was with shrimp. And while I think it could have used a couple of more shrimp, it was really well balanced. I did have to order some chilies and chili vinegar for mine because it wasn't really Thai hot. But still, it was terrific and Fatman got his grub on. I can not say enough good things about the balance and flavor. The green beans in the dish are, like the rest of the veggies, perfectly crispy. The onions smokey and the shrimp perfect. The Girly's redfish was good and bad. The actual fish was cooked crispy and had such a wonderfully meaty texture that you could almost imagine it being chicken...chicken that tastes really good. The veggies were crispy and copious and both our rice sides were fluffy and delicious. But the sauce on the redfish was super sweet. While I loved my bite of fish, the sauce throws the over-all balance off a bit too much. So the dish over-all off but the fish part was brilliant. (They did say they can make a Thai Basil version with the fish. can't wait to try that) At the end of the meal, they give you an orange, all pealed and segmented. The girly ate both because her 3 hot was a bit too much for her. I really would love to go back and try them again. They are well priced and the food, in general, was fantastic. Our server was great and the cook even came out to check if the white guy was going to die from the spice. I think he was a little let down that I added more spice to it. I would seriously recommend this place to anyone who likes Thai food. If you were a fan of Thai Thai by Ricky before he "screwed" up, then you will love this food. Having said all this, I just want to say that John L.H...you were right this time, dude. read more

Why am I more diligent about rating restaurants when I'm on the road?? Anyway, I was staying nearby, and the ratings on this restaurant caught my eye. They close early Sunday night, but I was there Monday night! Looks to be a mom and pop place in a little strip mall, and the food is to die for! I can't remember exactly what I had, but it was one of their house specials with shrimp. Slightly sweet, and I ordered it mild, but just enough spice to complement the sweetness. Wow! I wasn't expecting much from the wine list, and you shouldn't either. Pretty much white or red, with a couple varietals of each. But you don't go to a Thai restaurant for the wine, right? Very reasonable and totally delish! read more

This restaurant is one of Covington's best kept secrets! A wonderful, quiet, place with quick, friendly service and excellent food! This is our third visit as we are new to the area, and each time has been truly delicious and satisfying. read more

The food and service were just A-OK. Dined with a party of six, so had the chance to try a few different curry dishes, as well as noodle and stir fry offerings. All were pretty good, but I've had better Thai in the NOLA area, at two eateries on the south shore and one in Mandeville. Let's start with the appetizers... the fresh spring rolls were served deep fried, and the chicken satay, was a little dry, but tolerable with the peanut sauce. The service was friendly enough, but inattentive and poorly timed. One member of our party had to ask three times for iced tea (thank God the Sapporo was faster), but probably the most disappointing aspect of the service was the timing, which was too rushed. A party of six (three couples) at 7pm on a Saturday shouldn't be rushed (restaurant was at 50% capacity, max). We were asked repeatedly, within 5-10 minutes of brining seated, if we were ready to order, so went ahead and did so. Before the mediocre appetizers were gone, our dinners stated arriving. I actually planned on ordering soup, but in the rush of ordering entrees, forgot about it, so I won't be reviewing soup... or dessert, since it wasn't offered. Getting a party of six in & out, in less than an hour, is appreciated for a business lunch, but not for a relaxed Saturday evening dinner, especially after driving nearly an hour to get there. Thai Spice is lucky we were with great friends, so even with the aforementioned issues, we still had a wonderful time! read more

Service was excellent and food delicious! I sat at the bar since I was traveling for work and everything was great, even had a great relationship with who I think was the owner. I had the spicy catfish with spring rolls.. Delicious! Between the great service and food I will definitely be back here when I am back in town. read more

Food really really good. BUT do not pst that you close at 930 and we walk in at 850 have a seat and order and your server tell us we are closing. I own restaurants. The difference between a good review and a bad review is your service. If you don't want to take care of customers until 930 then close at 9. By out the door at 9 then later 830 read more

My boyfriend and I went there for lunch--the service was excellent! My curry noodles were a bit intense in flavor, but still good. The spring rolls were good as well--not the best I've ever had, but pretty standard for decent Thai food. In summary, I'm a bit of a Thai snob, but I found Thai Spice to be far better than I had expected it to be. Definitely worth a try at least! read more

my review is an avg of about 4 meals I have had there. A coworker really likes this place so this is how I found it. The first couple of meals I had were basic stir fry I guess you would call it. Beef with veggies done a couple different ways. It was bland both times and basically both dishes tasted the same I went back when someone else asked me to go. I was not looking forward to it. But I changed it up and got the curry. Wow, amazing. full of flavor. I got a green curry one time then the red. both were darn good so 1 star for the stir fry and 4 for the curry read more

I was here for a recent birthday trip and thought Thai would be fun. I didn't realize there would be so many Thai places on the Northshore, and I was pleasantly surprised by this small, stripmall restaurant. The ingredients tasted fresh. My partner had the crispy fish, and I stole a bit off his plate; it was amazing. I ordered the drunken noodles because of the good reviews for them. Not quite my scene, but I was out to try something new, so that's not the noodles' fault. The server was nice and attentive and chatted us up a bit. We got our segmented orange as a finisher. The thai tea was a little overly sweet, but I saved a lot of it in the mini fridge at our hotel and enjoyed it for breakfast the next day; it was still good. read more

My favorite Thai restaurant on the Northshore. I especially love the fried tofu appetizer!

Excellent Hot & Sour Soup & jasmine tea. The Red Curry had great taste, level 2 spice is the best. read more

Below average. Thai Chili was way better when it was open. Tom Yum had 3 rubbery shrimp but broth was good... Sweet Sour Thai had rubbery shrimp and watery few veg. Again, taste was good but more of a soup. Spring rolls very average....maybe institutional food? Paid way more than this meal was worth. Nice folks working but food is meh. read more

This place is pretty good I always get the same thing The spring rolls And The pepper steak It does lack seasoning so I usually add some salt However the steak is always tender read more

Stopped by Thai spice today while in Covington after recommendation from a friend. I love Thai food, and love a good basil fried rice. We got the Thai fried rice and the special fried rice, and it was everything you dream about for a fried rice. When we come back to this side of the lake, we will be back. Also we got the crispy cream cheese rolls. Very good. read more

This place is great. Very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff and food was great. I had the green curry chicken, very fresh vegetables and good spice level Loved the soup and spring roll read more

My spouse got the Thai fried rice and it was a very large portion. They went heavy on the onions and carrots, but I didn't mind because she gave them to me. The pad Thai was a decent sized portion. I wasn't overly impressed with the pad Thai. It was plain, but nonetheless it was still good. We ordered to go so I cannot speak for dining quality. read more

We walked in at the same time as another couple. They were served drinks and appetizers before she even came over to take our drink order which was only water. We asked if she could take our order and she made the snarky comment that she had to help (them) first. We were served our food after they had drinks, appetizers and their meal. I've only dined here twice and both times I was served by the same female and both times service was inadequate. The plus side is the food is delicious. read more

Best Thai food in the greater New Orleans area! The food is consistently good. Pad Thai, special fried rice, yellow curry, hot and sour soup and pad woon sen are my go to choices and never disappoint. Everything is so flavorful and the owner/chef always uses fresh ingredients. For a short period of time they had an unfriendly waitress but she has been replaced by an awesome waiter, Adam! The owner cooks the food himself and he's extremely friendly! I've been going here for about 10 years and I've not once been disappointed. read more

Excellent service and food was super yummy. Good social distancing too. Will go back again!!!

Loved the vegetable broth soup - rich and balanced broth and dumplings full of chicken. We got Taste of Ginger Shrimp - yum and Pad Woosend - lots of veggies and rice vermicelli. Much thanks to the staff for wearing your masks around the food. I cannot comprehend restaurants that do not require that. We will support you through this Pandemic because you are taking care of us! read more

We walked in and had to leave as the smell of fish Sauce was as so strong it had the odor of rotting fish.

Enjoyed my spicy Thai rice and Masaman Curry at Thai Spice. The service was great and the price was reasonable. Will definitely come back and eat here whenever I am back in the area. Definitely recommend to those who enjoy Thai food. read more

I LOVE Thai Spice and Mr. Ricky! This is my favorite Thai restaurant on the northshore or in the New Orleans area for that matter. We get take out a couple of times a month (or eat in) and I like to take guests there from out of town and introduce them to Ricky. The food is very yummy and "medium" is quite hot, just the way I like it, so be careful if it's not your thing. If you like your food "thai hot", tell them hot and you will be happy. Ricky is a fun host and smart businessman. He knows his customers and takes care of you (always stops by to talk to us and often offers my daughter a soda or other treat). All of the staff are nice and attentive also. You can get anything made with tofu and they have vegetarian spring rolls too. read more

This place is REALLY good. I am new to the area, and one of the first things on my list to find was a great Thai place. Check. They go the extra mile here. Portions are huge, ingredients are super fresh, flavors are bold, service is unbelievably brisk and attentive, almost too much so. I am there at least once a week. Highly recommended. read more

Since I'm from Seattle I'm a bit of a Thai snob, but this place was great. Very fresh, tasty and great customer service. I had a delicious Mango Catfish dish...with light and crispy fish and shredded mango. So yummy! We had a birthday girl in our party, and they brought out a dish with ice cream, cherries, and deep fried bananas in won ton wrappers...and candles! Great place to eat. I'd definitely come back if I lived in the area. I just wish I could have met Mr. Ricky. read more

I was fiending for some Thai food and figured I'd give this place a try due to the high ratings here. I stopped in probably around 8pm, and the only people in there were employees. The restaurant was kind of small but looked clean and well maintained. I placed an order and sat down to wait. Minutes after sitting down, my food was already done and I was on my way. I know this should be a good thing, fast service, but to me it just makes me wonder how many short cuts they're taking in the kitchen, and how fresh the food really is. So here's the breakdown. I got chicken and broccoli (which came with a huge container of white rice--no option for brown apparently), pad thai, and an order of spring rolls. The hard, desiccated corpse of flavorlessness masquerading as a spring roll was not something I'd order again. I could have gotten better tasting ones if I bought them myself from Costco. The pad thai was okay but to me, it was too sweet and I didn't think the portion was very big. Maybe I'm just used to places that give you a ton of pad thai. The chicken with broccoli was all right, but the best thing about it was probably the sauce with white rice, and to me that's a let down. I believe the broccoli was frozen, not fresh (big points off) and while there was a decent amount of chicken, it just wasn't very good. Even with the sauce, which was tasty but too thin. It was too close to chicken and broccoli soup with the amount of sauce they added to the dish, and given how watery it was. I was disappointed with the menu choices, too, because I didn't think they were that varied, and a lot of dishes I'm used to seeing regularly on menus at Thai restaurants were distinctly missing. This is not the worst place I've ever been to, but next time I'm craving Thai food I'll be looking around for somewhere else to fill it. read more

This place is hands down the best Thai restaurant on the Northshore ... I've tried so many different ones trying to find the perfect one and here t is! The food is always so fresh, the service is always fantastic and the portions for the price is amazing. read more

The new owners took this place up a bunch of notches. Best Pad Thai I've eaten, and I've tried a bunch. Haven't tried anything that was any less than stellar. Great service too. If you are looking for Thai in the Covington/Mandeville area, it's a no brainier. read more

Best Thai food on the North Shore, and the only place that has mango & sticky rice. We always order Pineapple fried rice. My little boys love it. read more

I've never eaten in the restaurant so I can't comment on the service, but my coworkers and I ordered take out from here for lunch one day. I've never been here before so my coworker recommended Pad Woon Sen. She got hers with chicken, and I tried it with the tofu. It was delicious. Highly recommend this dish with any of their meat/protein selections! read more

Thai Spice is good but, Thai Pepper has way better sheets. I could sleep forever. I ordered Drunken Noodles. They have the best rating system. From White Spice to Thai Spice. I like Thai Spice it is nice and hot. read more

Excellent food. Perfect blend of spice and flavor. Very fresh tasting. Excellent service and fair prices. Definitely will be back if in the area again. read more

The food was delicious and the customer service was excellent! My husband and I stopped in almost close to closing time and they were amazing and accommodated us. We must have looked really hungry, lol. The beef salad doesn't normally come spicy but they hooked me up. It was the perfect amount of heat and the beef salad was light and filling. My husband ordered the pandang curry and he loved it. The curry was very flavorful and fragrant. Would definitely eat here again the next time we are passing through. read more

The food is really good but the service is awful. There is generally only one waitress who is the owners sister. She is rude for no reason. She should not be in a customer service role anywhere! It's a shame because they have good food, but when you have someone as impolite as this waitress, it ruins the experience. I won't be going back. I hope the owner realizes his sister is hurting what could be a good business. read more

Enjoyed the steamed dumplings and tofu Pad Thai here today. Delicious food! Beautiful restaurant with nice place setting before dining. Lovely decorative plates and folded up (origami bird-looking, for lack of a better description :)) napkins on the plates. Thought it would be a little more costly, judging by the table presentation, gorgeous restaurant, and well dressed, mannerly servers, but you can easily have a $10 entree there. The food was superb, and I had a quiet, relaxing lunch there. Excellent place! read more

Meh. Had the Tai Basil for lunch. It tasted okay but the portion size was small. I'm still hungry. It's nice and clean though. I've eaten here once before and had a decent meal at night. Maybe it's better to eat here at night. I travel through here all the time. I prefer this other Tai place down in the old historic part of town. It's in an old house off the beaten path. I think it's called Sala. That's where I would go for Tai food around here. read more
