I've been coming here since I was a young and free single lad, and now I still come here, but as a husband and father of 3. All this to say the food still slaps, no cap. Our old reliables are the Beef Noodle Soup, Tiger Cry, along with Pad Pak Bong. We also recommend the Tony Wings and Tom Yum Noodle Soup. While the prices have crept up over the years, it is still very reasonable. Portions are pretty generous. I will say that it doesn't feel like it's the cleanest place and the decor has not changed (which is not necessarily a bad thing), but the interior is getting older. This establishment has been our go-to Thai spot in the Chinatown area and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

Tony Wings, Pad Prick King Fish, Pad See Eew
Alexis C.

Ordered Tony wings, Pad See Ew, and Pad Prick King Fish. The plates above will always be my go to dishes, wings are sticky sweet with crunch, padSE noods are wok'd with yummy char yet still bouncy, and the fish's spicy spiced up coat of chili is addictive! I like coming here for a fast easy comfort Thai food, the service is always swift and the food is consistent. The environment is causal but can still cater to a big party.

Thai Coffee Thai Iced Tea

Wanted to check out another Thai place and this one showed up. Got a few dishes to try out and everything was pretty solid. Pad see ew and the tom yum kung was our favorite. It was super flavorful and the spice level was perfect. I think the only let down was the fish. It was over cooked in my opinion so the texture was very soggy-like. Located in same plaza with Kim Son, Bambu, and Long's Coffee so there's plenty of parking.

Beef Tiger Cry
Kacee T.

My favorite Thai restaurant in Houston! Great price and great portions - don't get me wrong the Thai places in the heights is delicious but if you want family style Thai food, this is the place to be. I ALWAYS get the fried catfish, the tom yum fried rice - the beef tiger cry can be a hit or miss sometimes so just hope it isn't dry when you order it! An all time classic spot you need to try

Every time I'm in Houston, this is a must-stop. Tony's Taxi has the best wings and fried rice -- hands down! The flavors are crazy good, the portions are perfect, and the vibe is always on point. The service is 10/10 -- friendly, fast, and consistent every single visit. I literally can't come to Houston without stopping here. Always hits

THE BIG: Thai restaurant located inside Chinatown bellaire of Houston. Very big space, pay at the end and parking lot available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I'm always excited to go to Chinatown everytime we're in Houston. We immediately came to Tony Thai since we were famished from our drive from Austin. Since it was 2:30 in the afternoon, we were seated immediately as there were only a handful of customers inside. Service is lightning quick. We got the tom yum soup and tony's wings. The tony's wings were alright, it's your standard soy garlic fried chicken, and the tom yum soup was a nice tummy warmer for the cold day. THE FINAL BAMBOO: For two dishes, what came out of pocket was around $30 for two dishes. Wish we tried more of the original thai dishes, but the two we got was great.

Pad Thai and pineapple fried rice!
Zain P.

If you're looking for big Thai portions at an affordable price, this place is hard to beat. The servings are huge compared to most Thai restaurants and you definitely get a lot of food for what you pay. The pad thai and the pineapple fried rice are the standouts for me. Both dishes are packed with flavor and come out in generous portions that are perfect for sharing or taking leftovers home. When I say generous, I mean HUGEEEE!! One entree is MORE than enough to feed two people so don't over order here. You will end up taking most of it to go. because it is impossible to finish. The interior is designed very nice and there are tons of seating.

My friend told me that this Tony Thai restaurant has very good steak, so we went there for dinner. I ordered the basil lamb, and my friend ordered the grilled steak. The basil lamb tasted okay, but the steamed rice was not good and of cheap quality. The waiter service was decent. The restaurant atmosphere was okay. This restaurant also sells some grocery items.

Pineapple fried rice Pad see ew  Tom yum kung
Anh P.

I think the food is good depending on what you order. The price is pretty budget friendly. Love the idea of no MSG :o - Pineapple fried rice (good) Pad see ew (yummmy) Tom yum kung (eh, it was quite salty with not many toppings) Staff is nice and the place is nicely decorated

Pad Thaithai
thienly n.

Solid Thai food!!! They keep it simple and do an amazing job with authentic flavors! Everything came out warm, smelling amazing, and cooked perfectly! Wings were very crunch and flavorful. The sticky rice was one of my favorites yet. And overall this place is just a great bang for your buck the serving sizes are huge!! Will be back!

Pad see ew, Tom yum soup, and Stir-Fried Green Bean Garlic Sauce
Tiffany N.

My family and I have been coming to Tony Thai for years since it opened. It's a Bellaire staple for many and for good reason! The portions are hefty and prices are good! It's hard finding an affordable Thai restaurant these days but Tony Thai is exactly that! We ordered the pad see ew, the stir fried green beans and the Tom yum soup. I love their Tom yum soup. It's a dish that my family always orders when we go here. Service is alright, sometimes a bit disorganized and slow but I would attribute that to how busy they are. They have lots of decor in the restaurant which is a nice touch. The restaurant is located in the same plaza as Kim Son on Bellaire and in the far corner. You won't miss it! There's also plenty of parking right out front. Come here for decently priced Thai food if you're ever in Bellaire!

Tom Yum Fried Rice
Shirin L.

I was in the area looking for a place for lunch and saw this place while driving. It's a pretty big place and has lots of seatings. Since I was alone I decided to do a to-go. After a couple of recommendations from the server, I decided to order their Tom him fried rice. They told me it'll take 15 mins but it was ready in 5-7. I came back to the office and opened the box - it was full, their quantity is huge. It was hot and looked fresh! The taste was exactly what the server had said it would be - sweet and tangy. The rice and chicken were very flavorful and the present was great!

Crispy pork from new menu
Patty C.

Great place in Chinatown that serves up many Thai dishes. Tony Thai has been a Chinatown staple for some time now. I've been here a few times with great results. The interior is nice and bright during the day. The lunch specials are gone, but prices and portions are really good, and one can easily split a dish. I really enjoyed the pad thai and pad prick king fish on my last visit. The pad thai had great flavor and pieces of fried tofu, the fish had a nice crisp texture. We asked for both dishes to be medium, but no spice was detected, so we had to alter them ourselves. They do offer take away goodies as well as ingredients to make your own dishes, a bit out of place, but whatever. This is definitely not a place to be missed.

How much for pad thai party tray?

Do they have kao soy?

They do have it. It's not on the menu so you have to ask for it. If the waiter says they don't then ask for the manager. For some reason, some waiters don't know they have it LOL.…

Love the flavors and textures though. Definitely want to try with chicken and I recommend getting some rice on the side. Pad mama: 9/10 This had a really yummy vibrant flavor with a good amount of protein and leafy greens. Could be spicier I think the just gave us a random spice level. Overall really yummy and good portion for the prices but would love to retry with more spice in the dishes.

I can confidently say that I was disappointed. There was not one dish that stood out or that I would recommend or come back for. I especially was sad that the crying tiger flavors really missed the mark. The sticky rice that came with it felt like it was reheated and some parts were hard. It also tasted like some of the vegetables (green beans and carrots) that come with the entrees were frozen, not fresh. The jasmine green tea tastes like a powder mix. Some of the squid tasted freezer burned. The kua kling was the most interesting and unique of the dishes, but not one that I would go out of my way to eat again. The sticky rice with mango was as expected. The coconut ice cream is probably pre-portioned and frozen so was rock solid when it came out. I did not find most of the toppings particularly good. It was a busy Friday and I know service was busy. The food did not take long to come out, but we definitely had dishes from previous courses that stacked up, and we had to ask them to be taken away. They do have a high chair for toddlers and brought a plastic plate/utensils, but there was not a changing table in the bathroom we used. We have had such great experiences at other Thai restaurants in Houston that I would not come back.

It could easily reach that level. Our waitress, Ann, was incredibly kind, soft spoken, and welcoming. My friend Sherita suggested this restaurant after we left a Yelp office hour, and I'm so glad she did because it introduced me to something I never knew I needed: the salmon mango fried rice. It was absolutely amazing. I originally planned to take some home for my son to try, but it was so delicious that I finished every bite in one sitting. Sherita had visited earlier in the week and tonight shared that she arrived; right before I walked in which was 30 minutes before closing time, Jackie told her to hurry up and order, even though she already knew exactly what she wanted and didn't even need a menu. Jackie response was unprofessional and didn't even wait till the table guest got to the table, which was less than seconds since we all arrive at the same time, and left the same place. During our visit, Jackie never brought us water. A couple who was seated after us received water before we did. It took over 10 minutes for us to get water. Ann took great care of us, but anytime we wanted a refill, we had to ask. At one point my glass was completely empty. I noticed Jackie refilling the water glasses for a table of six, so I managed to get his attention. He looked directly at me, scanned the room, then stomped away all fast without acknowledging my request. Instead, he told Ann that we wanted water, and she graciously brought it over. Even at the end of our meal, Jackie stood behind the register while my friends waited to pay, yet another employee ended up taking their payment. His overall energy felt very cold and unwelcoming. My friend even joked that it was probably for the best that he didn't refill my water because of the energy he was carrying. As someone who believes water absorbs energy, I honestly agreed. I'm grateful Ann was the one who served us with such kindness. The restaurant itself has such a peaceful, zen atmosphere. The greenery outside and the warm lighting inside create a cozy neighborhood spot that I truly want to love and revisit with my son. Thank you , Sherita for introducing me and Aaliyah to this hidden gem. I completely understand why you visited twice in one week. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu, and hopefully next time the hospitality matches the quality of the food.
