Finally found the classic Thai food we were looking for! My fiancée absolutely loves Thai food, and since moving to Denver a few months ago, we've been on the hunt for a go-to Thai restaurant. Unfortunately, we've struck out a few times. We tried a couple of more upscale Thai restaurants that put their own twists on traditional dishes, but they just weren't scratching the itch we were looking for. Tommy's Thai was exactly what we had been hoping to find. The menu has all the classic Thai dishes you'd expect, and, more importantly, they're done right. It feels like a local, family-oriented restaurant that focuses on serving good, straightforward Thai food. We started with the edamame and an egg roll. The edamame was good, although my only real piece of feedback would be that I wish it had been saltier. The egg roll was great; classic egg roll vibes and a nice way to start the meal. I also really liked that you can order just one egg roll rather than having to commit to a larger order. For my entrée, I was torn between several options, so I asked our waiter for a recommendation. He suggested the Pad Phet which consists of stir-fried hot jalapeño peppers and onions, white rice, and your choice of meat (I went with chicken). It was delicious and was exactly the kind of classic Thai dish I was looking for, and the portion was generous enough that I left feeling full without being overly stuffed. Overall, this was a great classic Thai experience. Nothing overly complicated or reinvented just flavorful, satisfying Thai food in a welcoming, casual setting. We'll definitely be back whenever we're craving Thai, and there are several other dishes on the menu that I'm already looking forward to trying. One parking tip: with the construction currently happening along Colfax, parking can be a little tricky to spot. There's actually a small parking lot between Tommy's Thai and the pizza place next door, but you have to enter through an alley. There were probably around 10 parking spots, and it was pretty open when we went. It's easy to miss if you don't know it's there, but once you find it, parking is easy. We finally found our Thai spot in Denver -- we'll definitely be back! read more

The lady at this restaurant was sooooo sweet. Sadly, the pad Thai was below the quality I was hoping for. The sauce was very thin and liquid-y, so it felt like the noodles were soaked in a mini broth. The flavour was not that great, and I really like pad Thai. I did like how it came with both chicken and shrimp. It was $20, and I finished my portion with some effort. I got the medium spice level to challenge myself as I am very wimpy with spice, but it was surprisingly barely spicy. My friend got the drunken noodles with the hot spice level, but she should've gotten Thai hot because it was barely spicy for her, and she had to dump a crazy amount of chili powder to make it an acceptable level of spice. read more

Solid Thai takeout. Thai is a competitive market, and I'll be honestly isnt my number 1 in Denver. But thats not to say it isnt good. We ordered the standards, Pad Thai and Pad See Ew, because it was my wife's birthday and thats what she wanted. I would definitely come back to see how their other dishes are, but these were solid. We also got some dumplings and Id say the dessert combo is a must. We didnt dine in so It wouldnt be fair to jusge ambiance, but it seem cozy and cute. Its unfortunate that they be right there construction is happening literally on their doorstep and for that reason I strongly encourage people to go here over other options (even my number 1, Alloy, or Daughter) because you wont be disappointed and we need to support our local businesses, especially when the city is putting these roadblocks in their way. read more

If you see a bad review, just ignore it and come here! This place is around the corner from my home and I'm so sad I haven't been here yet. Everything was amazing. I always get Drunken Noodles and this is one of the best I've had in Denver. And the carb wontons are amazing! The space is much more spacious than I realized and the service was also fantastic. Highly recommend! read more

The food here was just ok. I thought the Tom kha was very good but I would've loved some cilantro or rice on the side with it. The pad see ew was pretty good. It was the Panang curry that brought the ranking down, it was just as watery as the soup and it was extremely lacking in flavor, there were also no vegetables in it, just the chicken and some Thai basil. Service was fine, and the inside of the restaurant is really nothing special. read more

We love Tommy's and have been coming here for years. The staff is always really friendly and their Pad Thai is the best in town!

Tommy's is my favorite thai place! Been going here since 2000 when they were located in an old KFC that was more like a shack than a restaurant and they only took cash. In 2002, they built this gorgeous new building and have been serving the best thai food there ever since. I love picking up take out or dining in. Parking can be a bit crazy during the construction on Colfax in summer 2025 but don't let that deter you! Take 13th or 14th to get there and there is parking on Cool. You will be so happy you did! read more

My family has been going to Tommy's for 30+ years. I have to say the food has changed drastically recently. Yesterday we picked up an order to go. Almost had a heart attack with the cost. We ordered three dinners and the total was $74. Needless to say we will not be going back... Really miss Sam! (Come back) read more

We absolutely adore Tommy Thai. The food is high on flavor without being heavy or greasy, and you can really tell how thoughtful the recipes are -- everything feels balanced and intentional. It's one of those places where you leave feeling satisfied, not weighed down, and still thinking about the flavors afterward. Just as special as the food is the staff -- always kind, welcoming, and genuinely lovely. Noi, in particular, is such a sweetheart and makes every visit feel extra warm. A true favorite that we now go to nearly every week. read more

Best Thai food I have had in Denver so far! Came on a Tuesday evening date night. There were quite a few people in the restaurant and the servers were on top of it. Both were very friendly and brought out the food quick. Cute spot for a dinner date or to even go solo! *Parking is quite challenging though Ordered the springs rolls which were quite unique. Honestly not sure I would get that again, but the shrimp Pad See Yew was to die for! The peanut sauce was also delicious. Didn't quite hit that five stars for me (especially with the sticky table) but I am hoping to come back and try a few more things that hit the five stars! Looking forward to coming back and highly recommend. Overall, 4/5 stars! read more

Its just okay! I heard people raving about the pineapple curry and i had to try. The broth was good but i found the chicken dry and vegtables lacking. They also did charge my card twice when I split the bill with a friend. One charge for the split bill and one for the whole bill. Im sorry I cheated on my regular thai place read more

Got food from here for take out with friends. I got the pineapple fried rice - it was excellent, I have been continuing to enjoy the leftovers. My go-to thai place in Denver doesn't have pineapple fried rice, so I'm really happy to find a place that has it. Hoping to try more of the menu to see if the other dishes live up to that one! read more

Still the best pineapple curry in town. A perfect flavor and delicious!! Our service was so great. She was attentive and super help! I highly recommend trying it out!! read more

Standard Thai dishes but almost no flavor at all. Had to add chili paste and soy sauce to enjoy it even a little. Portion was ok, service was good, atmosphere was pretty comfortable. There are just so many good Thai options with really good food, wouldn't go back here. read more

We haven't eaten here in quite some time but the last time we had a good experience. This time, it seems like we got punked or something. We ordered eggrolls, Satay, pad thai, Pla Rad Prig (deep fried catfish), and the Pad Prig Khing (stir fried green beans). - Eggrolls were undercooked. - Satay tasted like cardboard chicken - Pad thai was too spicy for my wife. She ordered medium. - Green beans were undercooked - Catfish was so small I thought it was a guppy. Also overcooked. For the price of these dishes, we expected better. I mean, we had better last time we ate here. read more

// Summary Mediocre Thai (typical Denver...making me sad) with not-so-great service. // Experience Came here with a couple of friends. I ordered a soup that wasn't particularly interesting or flavorful. I didn't bother to finish it. The spring roll was okay - nothing special. // Service Served our food in a timely manner - but for whatever reason, it was hard to get a water refill, and they weren't particularly busy. // Ambiance It's a pretty simple place, nothing remarkable about it - not too memorable. // Convenience You might be able to find street parking on the side streets, other than that - it might be kind of hard. read more

Thai....no other way to explain it but Tommy's has the traditional offerings with mild, medium , hot and spicy Thai hot levels. I can only imagine the latter being out of this world, numb your tongue off. Location is convenient to Bluebird but street parking is no bueno during the day. 2hour limits between 8a-6p. Service is wonderful (close your menu when you are ready to order) and our glasses stayed full. Quality and quantity of our orders were decent (and filling). read more

Tommy's Thai Restaurant - Tofu Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Last night we went to Tommy's Thai with a friend. We hadn't been in over three years, and it is still good and consistent! The prices are very affordable too! I can't wait to try US Thai! We ordered the vegetable gyoza and bowls of tom kha gai for our appetizer. The gyoza was good, and the soup really hit the spot! I had the traditional Pad Thai with chicken and shrimp, medium heat. I thought it was great! Our friend Marlene had the chicken Drunken Noodles, and Bob had tofu green curry. Bob doesn't care for the taste of any seafood and said he could taste a slight bit of an unknown, unlisted fish-based ingredient in both the soup and his curry, but overall he still liked both. The curry could have used a few more spices. Our server was very kind and attentive. The house wines and beers were also good and affordable. It's nice to know that they are still going strong! read more

Every food and Service. Great Pad Thai. Very friendly, clean and seems authentic Thai taste

OMG, how have I lived without Tommy's Thai for so long?! I have officially found my Thai go-to. A friend recommended this spot and I enjoyed it for the first time yesterday for lunch. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since. The second I walked through the door, every staff member inside said "hello" to me. They were all instantly warm and friendly, acted like they knew me personally. We were immediately seated, the inside is warm, modern, and very clean. Our server was so sweet and friendly, and she treated us like family! The menu has all of the traditional Thai classics, our friends raved about their Pad Thai. Our friends ordered the Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, and I ordered the Massamun Curry. After we ordered, our wonderful server came back with Tom Kha for us to enjoy while we waited! She was so cute and said, "I have a surprise for you!" The Tom Kha was perfect for a cold snowy day, and absolutely delicious!! So flavorful and delectable. Our food came out and I was pleasantly surprised by the Massamun Curry! Instead of the typical thin-sliced chicken that you see at most Thai/Asian restaurants, my curry had full chicken thigh pieces! The curry sauce was so creamy and silky and thick, with perfectly cooked onions, potatoes, and peanuts. But I still couldn't get over the chicken!! So tender and hearty, and much more filling than the thin-sliced chicken that I'm used to! What a treat! We didn't order appetizers or desserts, but they had wonderful offerings of both on their menu. I am still drooling over the Tom Kha and Massamun Curry and I can't wait to go back. This is my new Thai go-to, and I would highly recommend! read more

Staff was friendly but I wasn't impressed with the food. I ordered pineapple curry but the flavors were too strong in the wrong way. I'm a big fan of curry but this one just doesn't make the cut in my opinion. My wife had the pad thai but it was very watery. We will probably never go back. read more

Tommy's hasn't been the same since the pandemic. I went for lunch, got the pad thai, it had nearly 50% beans protein and 50% noodles. Told the owner, she "remade" it. But it was cold like they just added some noodles. We gave it another try a few months later and same thing tons of bean sprouts. There was a hair in the egg roll, which was comped. So although it has good flavor, I am done with them. read more

Man, I really wanted to like this place, because the people working there were so nice. But, I can't excuse the food. I have to start with the soup. My friend and I each got the Tom Kha Gai (my favorite soup) which was $10.25 and said "For 2". You guys need to take that off of the description, like yesterday. Picture a large hot and sour soup from a Chinese restaurant, now cut that container in half and don't even fill it full. That's soup for ONE, unless you're talking about two small children who aren't that hungry. I was prepared to accept the size and price if it were great soup. Instead, my friend said the exact same thing I did. "Watered down". It wasn't creamy, at all. Yes, there was some coconut milk in there, but very little - this was watery damn soup. And, it made me so sad. That combined with the size "for 2" and I felt horribly ripped off. The Stuffed Chicken Wings were....interesting. I had bites that were pretty good and I had bites I had to spit out. The concept is interesting, and the coating was crispy, but there was too much gristle and random non-edible bits mixed in. And, it was expensive, as well. I also had the Pad See Ew and I'm gonna use the same words - watered down. The flavor wouldn't have been bad at all, but it was so diluted that I couldn't believe they were passing this off the way they were. I mean, it's such a cheap dish to make, and they are not cheap. You gotta dilute the sweet soy sauce? Also, hardly any noodles. There was a decent amount of broccoli and chicken (though the chicken was chopped to tiny bits in some places) and....very very little noodles, which is honestly why I ordered this. I really wish this were a better review and that the food were better. You guys either need to fix the recipes or lower the prices. read more

I ordered take out.. The bill was a little over $30 which for me at lunch is a little expensive. The order was good size though. I had Tom Yum Goon soup and Pad Thai with shrimp and chicken. It was the BEST Thai food I have had in my life and I have had a lot! So many flavors put together perfectly. Man I couldn't get enough but I still had leftovers for lunch today. read more

The server, Cam, went out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable and taken care of. The food was delectable, highly recommend the chicken pad thai! Not to mention the decor of the restaurant is warm and soothing. read more

For some reason I was expecting Tommy's to be a dive so you can only imagine how I felt when I walked in. If you don't know what that means......Tommy's isn't a dive.....and that breaks my heart for some reason. I'm still getting used to my neighborhood and trying to find my go to spot for Thai. After reading the reviews on here and given the close proximity to, I bit the bullet and decided to give Tommy's a chance. I was in a hang-out-in-yoga-pants-and-hoodie kind of mood so I carried out. When I called in they told me it was going to be about 20 minutes, no worries, I was going to get there early and grab a drink. When I walked in I was overtaken (ironically enough) by the minimalistic, trendy vibe Tommy's gave off. I was thanking my lucky stars I wore a bra because I felt totally out of place in my casual clothes. I wish I wouldn't have gotten there so early because there is barely anywhere to wait. I grabbed a Thai tea and went into the small entry way to stand and flip through a magazine (they're like a doctor's office and have People, US Weekly, etc!) Bad move because some lady and her kid decided to leave their table and just stand there and three was definitely a crowd. I went outside to sip on my tea and got bored after a few minutes......and the tea? Blew monkey chunks. If the tea was a person it would've been George Clinton because it was funky as all hell. Luckily the food didn't take 20 minutes and soon enough I was on my way home, ready to get my Pad Thai on. Their prices seemed a little higher to me and you don't get as much bang for your buck as you do at other places. The pad thai was spicy as I requested but besides that it seemed to lack flavor and didn't have a lot of sauce. It was enough to last me for two meals so that was appreciated but I was underwhelmed with the experience as a whole. I think if I was in a mood where I wanted to spend more money than necessary (i.e. never) and in a bind for some pad thai, I would go here again, otherwise I am still on the hunt for my go to Thai place. read more

Been coming here for 15+ years. Very consistent in their food, love the heat and appreciate the good service. Usually, grab the pad thai with extra tofu and veggies kicking it up to the hot level (working on Thai hot). Burns the mouth after a few bites, but it's just the right amount of spice. Add Vegetable Gyosa as an appetizer and you're there. Or? Try a Veggie eggroll and dip it in a healthy dose of hot mustard, I guarantee you'll feel some heat. This is a good quality, cleaner version of Thai food. Always go away from there feeling full, the portions are very healthy. Not as greasy as some I run across. We enjoy the atmosphere, clean and professional. read more

Tommy's Thai Restaurant - Pad Thai with extra tofu and veggies. - Thai Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Super-duper mediocre Thai food. This place seems popular, but I have to wonder if it's just because it's been around for a while, or if it's because Denverites aren't familiar with good Thai food yet. I see little reason to order from here when there places like 9Thai (delicious, authentic) and Aloy (delicious, Americanized) to choose from. read more

I just went to Tommy's Thai and it was great. My server Luke was very kind, patient, and helpful when I had questions about the menu. The Thai tea was a delicious sweet treat, and the pad Thai was Flavorful, spicy, creamy, sweet and just Awesome I definitely recommend Tommy's Thai. Ask for Luke as your server, he's great. Thanks everyone! read more

Tommy's Thai, I love you. I've been coming here since I was a little kid, and although the decor has been updated, thankfully the menu has not. I've been searching ever since in every city, town and/or country that I live in and haven't found anything to rival you. I will say that despite my best intentions to expand my horizons, I've honestly have never ordered anything but the pad Thai. I know that isn't super authentic to Thailand and the diverse majesty that is Thai food, but Tommy's the best in all the land and sometimes a girl just wants pad Thai. The happy hour wine is cheap, the servers have been there (some of them, anyway!) for years, and the same family has owned the joint for 20+ years. Everyone is friendly and the service is fast. The spicy ratings are 0, 5, and 10. The ten will burn your face off and the zero is, well, a zero. I recommend the 5 with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. read more
