A cozy, efficient dining area. Minimal decor which is attractive. It doesn't overwhelm the room. Good idea! Invited to join a couple from our HOA, we were enthused to further our love for Thai cuisine. This place exceeded our expectations. We had a very kind server. Her English skills were minimal, but we easily made do with universal signs for numbers and pointing to the two billing parties seated at our table of four. I ordered the Sesame Chicken. BEAUTIFULLY served - - pleasing to the eye and the palate. No photos - sorry - but I leave that talent to others. It was a VERY generous serving. I am not exaggerating when I say I left VERY SATISFIED with eating a fourth or a third of the dish. Looking forward to enjoying my leftovers today and/or tomorrow. My husband ordered the Chicken Fried Rice. Our server added a plate of their hottest sauce - four thimble sized containers. My husband - an aficionado of all things "flavorful" enjoyed THREE containers on his food. HA! HA! As a footnote - - do yourself a favor. Order the Rangoon. NEVER have I EVER seen such a lovely serving! Perfectly fried with a delightful sauce. Bravo to the cooks and the servers! We will DEFINITELY return! read more

My wife and I have found a new to us dish that we really enjoy.Chicken Laab . So we have had it a couple of places lately.We also get the sampler appetizer. The food here was good I would recommend it . Although it ranks below Thai House was presented differently. Service was good too. And very nicely decorated despite there being a Kids birthday party going on in the far dining room??? Give it a try! read more

I ordered take out from Thai Spice last night and it was yummy. I got the appetizer combo for me and Mr. G. The crab Rangoon were smaller but you could see the crab in them. The spring rolls were good and so were the egg rolls. I got Mr. G. the Thai Pad combo. He loved it. You can customize and I got his medium hot, and he said it was perfect. He was able to get 3 meals from his serving. You can customize heat level on your dishes: mild, medium, hot, and Thai hot. I got the Pinapple Fried Rice mild. I think next time I will get medium hot. Big portion, lots of big chicken chunks and shrimp. Of course you can't go to a Thai restaurant without getting a Thai Iced Coffee. What is nice is you can get more or less ice. I got 25% ice. There is seating inside both tables and booths. I can see me and Mr. G. eating there in person. They do a good take out business and are well organized for both. They have a small but nice beer selection and a wine offering too. read more

It's a cute little restaurant in a strip mall so there is ample parking, the space is small but super cute inside. I had the drunken noodles without the green beans and added shrimp, and it was delicious! The doodles were cooked perfectly. The dish was not spicy so I asked for a spice tray which had 4 different options of spice additives. I liked the chili paste the best! The bathroom was a little dingy but overall was decently clean. I definitely will be going back! read more

It's an average Thai. One of the dishes it's pho, but it's definitely not the regularly pho. It's dark broth and spicy, very different taste. The service wasn't very good, it took longer to get order and there was no welcoming feelings at the restaurant. read more

Stay far far away from this place if you value good service. Absolutely horrendous customer service. They do not care about your order if youre not a eat in customer. We ordered and were told itd be ready in 20 minutes. An hour later we were still waiting. No explanation. Didnt care. Didnt speak to us. Didnt hand us our order when ready. She sat it on the table behind us without saying a word and walked away. Very very rude and pretentious. Other customers were upset as well. We ordered well before everyone. They had one couple in the restaurant when we arrived. Anytime a new eat in customer came they sat them and they got their food before all of us even though we had been there for over an hour. I previously thought "oh theyre just overwhelmed" on previous visits. Nope! They are horrible people who should jot have a restaurant. Its not a language barrier issue either. They understood perfectly fine. Horrible! Stay away! read more

came here on a saturday evening around 5:30/6 and our party of 3 was seated immediately. definitely a smaller business and not a lot of seating but that made it a more quiet and personal experience. we ordered the chicken fried rice (medium spice) and the chicken drunken noodles (normal and medium spice). the medium spice chicken fried rice and the regular drunken noodles were very delicious but the mediums spice drunken noodles were very wayyy spicier than i was expecting and i couldn't finish them. next time i would probably just get the spice rack to control the spice level. read more

A great little Thai joint tucked away in a strip center. The sweet is sour sauce is amazing - like, you need a straw to drink it amazing! My favorite part of the meal was dessert. We splurged for the taro and banana ice cream and WOW. Crazy impressed! Plus the waitress explained taro is a purple root vegetable that's naturally slightly sweet! I love trying different ethnic foods and am so glad I ordered it! read more

3.49 stars. Food was good, not great. I got sesame chicken that said it was crispy but it was soggy. It tasted pretty good still. The soup was very good. Crab Rangoon was tasty. Service was good and bad at the same time. There was never a smile, thank you, or extra help offered. I had to request a to go box after the check, a straw, pepper tray, sauce for Rangoon, and my check. I got what I needed and without too much delay but the unfriendly demeanor, need for requests, and nothing extra attitude was off putting. I would not return. read more

I love this place. Every time I go it's wonderful. Lee's Summit or Independence the food is good. Mile medium or hot it's a winner. I usually get take out but it's clean and the wait staff is nice but the food is a winner. read more

I got the sesame chicken it was good but I will say extremely greasy and oily. Took it back home and once I took it out the next day there was puddles of oil. Service was ok wasn't the best but not bad. The dine in area wasn't bad at all lighting was nice not too bright. read more

We ordered 5 dishes. Fried calamari , drunken noodles, crab fried rice, pad Thai and sticky rice with mango. Service was alright . Standard service. 6.5/10 1) fried Calamari was a bit too salty for me and with the price it's pretty pricey for a little bit of calamari. 5/10 2) drunken noodle was ok , noodles was hard , taste a bit different compare to other Thai restaurants. 5.5/10 3) pad Thai was fine . Medium spice is not that spicy to me . 6/10 4) crab fried rice was very good except the crab smell weird itself and it has bit of shell in it. 7.5/10 5) sticky rice with mango was ok . Not the mango season so I understand it . 5/10 Overall , I will give this restaurant a solid 7/10. read more

Ordered the black soy sauce noodle dish and it couldn't have been more delicious! I'll definitively be back!

Food was amazing as usual. Ready when they said it would be. We have never had a bad meal.

Great food every time! Cashew chicken and sesame chicken are amazing! Here almost weekly with a large group and everyone always loves the food! read more

I met my friend & his mom at Thai Spice because it is one of his favorites. It was a very hot day. I arrived right as they open after their afternoon break. The last time we tried to eat here, it was closed. We didn't realize it closed midday & reopened, so we dined nearby. I arrived before the other two. I reviewed the menu and grabbed a drink. It was comfortable & not busy yet. The menu I was touching was visibly not clean with debris also trapped behind the plastic. I recommend just reviewing the menu on your phone. I ordered the Pad Thai. It was too sweet for me (maybe too much sauce). My left overs with added veggies was improved. So, I will try something different in the future. My friend ordered crab fried rice (which I had been eyeing, lol). And, his mother ordered the Spring Rolls, which were substantial & a refreshing summer option! The crab Rangoon was good as well. As the restaurant got busier, probably due to the door opening & body heat, it felt fairly warm by the time we finished eating. If this is a dining concern, I'd recommend their takeout option. The servers were kind & I had leftovers. My main suggestion is to be aware of when they close & reopen daily. read more

I took a work colleague from St. Louis here because it was easy access from I-70 on his way into town. I had the tamarind chicken and it was tasty. Not too salty and heavy and also not too spicy for my palate. He had the pineapple fried rice and really enjoyed it. The service was quick. It isn't a glamorous setting, but it was a great place to have lunch and catch up. read more

Good food for a good price. The dining area is kind of old/worn enough that I took a star away. Staff were nice and we got our food hot and timely. Good Al around Experience! read more

I love thai food, my go to is the Pad Gra Pow, this location makes it the best, good size portion and nice too wet (gravy).

This is the place that made me fall in love with Thai food. Tucked away in a small strip center across from Costco. It's warm and comfortable inside, and always feels very clean. The service is just exactly what I want. You are greeted immediately, offered drinks, your order is taken, and delicious food arrives generally within about 10 minutes. They check in on you, but never hover. We've ordered many things on the menu and everything has been fantastic. We always start with the Egg Rolls, which are truly the best I've had anywhere. The Sweet Chili sauce that comes with it is addictive. Also love the Drunken Noodles, Chili Chicken, Trio Chicken, and Island Garlic Pork. They are always able to make accommodations for my son who is Vegan. They also offer a small selection of wine and beer. Highly recommend! read more

Our family enjoyed this experience from the moment we walked in the door to the time we left. Amazing customer service, even better food. We will happily return on our next visit to town. read more

Really good Thai food! Nice, fresh ingredients and perfect spicing. And the service was really good, too. Cute decor, very clean. We're visiting from Texas but if we lived here we'd definitely return! read more

Food was ok. We visited here as the other Thai restaurant in Independence was closed as it was Monday. Just not as good as the other but good nonetheless. Service was very good. read more

if you love soup order the curry! The lack of thickness is certainly deceptive but taste is there

Terrific carry out. We have tried lots from the menu and everything is really great. Crab Rangoon are terrific.

Food was delicious and spicy reasonable prices, huge portions. Would definitely recommend.

Nice ambiance, quiet, fast service. Tiger Beef Salad is a good shareable starter. Had Thai Fried Rice with shrimp. Tasty. If you are a fan of curry, the Yellow Curry Chicken was smooth, not spicy, and delicious. This was my favorite dish. Sesame Chicken was too sugary for me personally. Reminded me of the food you get from Panda Express ... a spoonful of sugar makes the panda food go down. read more

When is my favorite Thai restaurants, the independence location is where I normally go and do this consistently excellent. my go-to is the chicken pad Thai, with a medium spice, which is plenty of space for me. I've tried some of the other dishes and every time it is been wonderful. Love the hot and sour soup, again, it is consistently wonderful. read more

I called in one hour ahead from I-70 Looking to pick good Thai food, as described in the reviews. When I arrived, I was told she was unsure of my order (we spent 15 minutes on the phone going over it 3 times), and besides, she wanted it hot for me, so she didn't have it prepared. I paid for it. I had to wait 20 minutes for them to make it. So my arrival to Cincinnati was postponed. Food was good. Just frustrating waiting in the hot sun with dogs, hungry husband and cat. Don't bother with calling in an order. It says they have doordash. And this is not the Sterling ave location, it's on East Valley View. read more

Hmm! 1st Thai place I've visit here in Independence. I don't taste Thai here. The chicken tasted boiled, the veggies tasted like frozen dipped in hot water. I understand blanched but they were still cold inside. No steam whatsoever was coming from the food so there was nothing hot about my dish. No seasoning either. So very bland. Order tea, but no honey to enjoy it with. No the dumpling soup I totally will give a thumbs up. Nice and hot, not the least bit salty and seasoned perfectly. I may come back for soup if hugry and in the neighborhood but doubt I'll go for anything else on the menu. read more

The food was terrible, the beef I was served was very tough and fatty and stringy, un-eatable. When I brought this up to the server, no action taken to make the situation better, she just shrugged me off. AVOID them and go to Thai Kitchen just up the road about a mile away on Hwy 40. read more

This place was great! Decided to try it on a whim cause we were in the area and had to run to Costco. The pad Thai and crab fried rice were delicious and the little crispy crab rangoons were some of the best I've had! Thai tea was tasty but small. My all time fave Thai place is Tasty Thai in the northland but this place is giving them a run for their money!! read more

By far one of my favorite restaurants! The Lees Summit Mo location has all the Thai Spice entrees I love (spicy green bean with chicken is my absolute fave) and they have sushi rolls and the best Thai tea ever! Do yourself a favor and grab some steamed dumplings and crab Rangoon. Thai crab Rangoon are light and delicate - way better than what you get in Chinese restaurants. Eat here. Now. Tomorrow. And every week - so we can enjoy Thai Spice for long into the future. read more

Great spot to grab so Thai food, staff were friendly food was hot and fresh. Will dine here agian
