Best Thai Food in Colorado Springs! Hands down. It is so delicious and fresh. They make it fresh after you order. I had the Green Curry with Chicken and Pad See Ew (noodle dish).

(Traducido por Google) El servicio es cálido, amable y rápido. El personal trabaja muy bien como equipo y toda la comida salió muy caliente. Los calamares se frieron en casa, se nota por el empanado y el crujido. También disfruté el curry verde con pollo (especia media). Tenía la cantidad justa de picante, el pollo estaba tierno y las verduras estaban al dente. Gran experiencia.(Original)Service is warm, friendly, and quick. The staff work great as a team and all the food came out very hot. The calamari was fried in house, you can tell by the breading and crunch. I also enjoyed the green curry with chicken (medium spice). It was just the right amount of heat, the chicken was tender and the veggies in it were al dente. Great experience.

This is a good Thai restaurant, the service was good and the staff were very friendly. I ordered the Pad Thai Wild Ginger (Pad Thai with shrimp and chicken) and Pad Phed Moo (stir fry pork with onions, peppers, carrots, bamboo shoots and baby corn). The Pad Thai was very good, but taste best a little spicy. I was not that impressed with the Pad Phed Moo, the flavor was decent but there was an abundance of bamboo shoots and baby corn in the dish, which lacked flavor. Overall, this is a good Thai restaurant with good service. I will eat there again.

(Traducido por Google) ¡Muy satisfactorio en general! Mi plato fue Pad Thai Puck. La de mi hija era sopa tailandesa de fideos con mariscos. Mi pareja comió curry verde con pollo. ¡Luego dividimos un plato de arroz frito! Gran servicio. Buena comida. ¡Seguiremos volviendo para probar más platos!(Original)Very satisfying overall! My dish was Pad Thai Puck. My daughter's was Thai Seafood Noodle Soup. My significant other had Green Curry with chicken. Then we split a bowl of fried rice! Great service. Great food. Will keep coming back to try more dishes!

The egg rolls were fair, the soup with coconut milk was great but the service was bad. He didn't ask me if I wanted anything to drink and left my dirty dishes on the table till I left.

(Traducido por Google) Mi esposo y yo fuimos a almorzar aquí hace dos días y pedimos ensalada de tom kha gai, curry verde y papaya.Comemos mucha comida tailandesa y, desafortunadamente, este lugar no dio en el blanco. El Tom Kha gai sabe bien, pero fue muy difícil sacarlo de la fuente en la que estaba, aunque se veía muy bien, simplemente no era muy práctico. Los tazones pequeños que nos dieron para la sopa tampoco eran muy prácticos. Eran tan pequeños. Apenas cabía arroz y sopa allí. La ensalada de papaya estaba vieja. Se notaba porque los trozos de papaya estaban muy blandos y empapados, no crujientes ni crujientes. Probablemente lo hicieron en un lote y lo dejaron reposar. Me encanta la ensalada de papaya, pero no comí esta después de darle algunos bocados.En cuanto al curry verde, este curry quedó extremadamente espeso. Como si usaran demasiada maicena al espesarla al cocinarla. Los sabores estaban bien, pero era un poco soso. Una vez más, lo que más nos desconcertó con este curry fue lo espeso que era el curry.Además, este fue probablemente el lugar más caro en el que he estado. La sopa costaba $14, el curry $15 y la ensalada $13. Diré que el pedido de sopa fue mucho mayor de lo esperado, pero nunca antes había pedido una sopa Tom kha gai de $ 14 hasta hoy.(Original)My husband and I went here for lunch two days ago and ordered the tom kha gai, green curry, and papaya salad.We eat a lot of Thai food and unfortunately, this place just missed the mark. The Tom Kha gai taste good, but it was very difficult to scoop out of the serving platter it was in although it did look really cool- it just wasn’t very practical. The small bowls they gave us for the soup was also very impractical as well. They were so tiny. You could barely fit any rice and soup in there. The papaya salad was old. You could tell because the papaya shreds were very limp and soggy, not crunchy and crisp. They probably made it in a batch and had it sitting. I love papaya salad, but didn’t eat this one after having a few bites.As for the green curry, this curry came out extremely thick. Like they used too much cornstarch when thickening it in cooking it down. The flavors were OK, but it was kind of bland. Again, the thing that threw us off the most with this curry was how thick, the curry was.Also, this was probably the most expensive place I have ever been to. The soup was $14, the curry was $15, and the salad was $13. I will say the soup order was much larger than expected, but I have never ordered a $14 Tom kha gai soup before until today.

(Traducido por Google) Había cosas buenas y cosas malas, era mitad y mitad.té tailandés-BienAperitivo:satay de pollo-¡Gran aperitivo! ¡Lo recomiendo! Las salsas también estaban buenas, una clara era un poco dulce. El pollo estaba bien preparado y también con buen sabor. Recomendado por servidor.Platos principales:Sopa de pollo y coco, no recuerdo el nombre. Muy recomendable, excelente sopa. Obtuve un tamaño medio y no me resultó picante, así que agregué un poco más de especias (especias secas), ¡excelente sopa!Curry Panang-Uno de los peores que he probado, los sabores no estaban ahí en absoluto. Tampoco parece apetecible. No lo recomiendo. Pedido con pollo y ternera, las carnes estaban bien, la salsa no.Plato de pollo salteado, no recuerdo el nombre.No lo recomiendo, los sabores no son nada buenos, la salsa es mala.En general, desearía que tuviéramos platos diferentes, no creo que hayamos probado las cosas correctas. Quizás deberíamos haber pedido las ofertas especiales del chef. La única razón por la que no compré un curry verde o amarillo fue porque las fotos no se veían tan bien.(Original)There was good things and there was bad things it was half and half.Thai tea-GoodAppetizer:Chicken satay-Great appetizer! I do recommend! Sauces were good too, clear one was a little sweet. Chicken was cooked good with a good flavor as well. Recommend by server.Main dishes:Chicken coconut soup- can’t remember the name. Highly recommend, great soup. I got medium and it wasn’t spicy to me so I added some more spice (dry spice) great soup!Panang curry-one of the worst I’ve had, flavors were not there at all. Doesn’t look appetizing either. Don’t recommend. Ordered with chicken and beef, meats were alright, sauce not.Chicken stir fry dish- can’t remember name.Don’t recommend, flavors not good at all, bad sauce.Overall I wish we got different dishes, I don’t think we tried the right things. Maybe we should’ve got the chef specials. The only reason I didn’t get a green or yellow curry was because the pictures did not look that great.

Limited alcohol selection and no light beers at all. Food and service are good, but the decor needs to be severely redone/updated. It's just not a place I want to spend time in.The bowl they serve the soup in seems cool at first...but the flame goes out pretty quickly and it's a little awkward trying to get the last bits of soup out with the ladle provided.They do not always open at the posted times.

We came in half an hour before closing time, but they accommodated us. We had a splendid Green Curry with Chicken! Also had a great coconut juice (might be too sweet for some). Quick service, great food.

(Traducido por Google) La comida aquí fue simplemente fantástica. Comí curry verde y estuvo entre los mejores que he probado, aunque en realidad pedí el curry panang. Supongo que fue un feliz accidente. El resto de mi familia también disfrutó de sus platos, especialmente mi hija que comió arroz frito con camarones. No se deje engañar por la apariencia del centro comercial. Esta es una comida tailandesa auténtica y fantástica.(Original)The food here was simply fantastic. I had the green curry and it was among the best I've ever had, even though I actually ordered the panang curry. I guess a happy accident. The rest of my family also enjoyed their dishes, especially my daughter who had the shrimp fried rice. Don't be fooled by the strip mall appearance. This is real, fantastic Thai food.

The food was flavorful, and it was adjusted to our desired spice level. The staff was friendly. The ambiance was nice, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, a great experience. Would go back.

We did not find the food to be as we would expected Thai food to taste...to be more specific, all 3 of the dishes we ordered tasted like they had been cooked in chicken stock, or that chicken stock had been used to make the curry. The curry was thin and watery, with very little evidence of coconut milk. They had accidentally used chicken instead of shrimp, but rather than remaking it, I think they just removed the chicken and added shrimp (I found pieces of chicken in the shrimp curry). If you have ever had authentic Thai food, you are not likely to be satisfied with the food made by this restaurant. If you like the taste of chicken stock, you probably will like the food made by this restaurant.

All I can say is I eat a lot of Thai food. Extremely disappointed in the pad see ew. Definitely zero flavor, they don't use the traditional noodle or sauce. My wife had green curry not any coconut flavor and heavily laden with flour. I would definitely drive a little bit more and head over to Thai Lily Cuisine & Yakitori 8. Extremely good in traditional. Small family owned. When I talk to the owner here his response was simply this is why we've always done it. I know I hear a couple years ago and it's absolutely changed.

(Traducido por Google) Teníamos tantas ganas de amar este lugar. Vivir en el lado oeste hubiera sido fantástico tener un lugar cerca de nosotros con excelente comida tailandesa. Desafortunadamente, simplemente no dio en el blanco. Le falta sabor, por primera vez tanto mi marido como yo tuvimos que añadir sal a nuestros platos. Está un poco anticuado en cuanto a decoración. Necesita ser actualizado. En general no volveríamos. También costaba $ 15 + por una comida y, al ser comida mediocre, simplemente no vale la pena.(Original)We wanted to love this place so bad. Living on the westside would have been a great to have a place near us with great Thai food. Unfortunately it just didn’t hit home. Lacks flavor, for the first time both my husband and I had to add salt to our dishes. It’s a little outdated as far as decor. Needs to be updated. Overall we wouldn’t come back. It was also $15 + for one meal and it being mediocre food just not worth it.

Everyone was so friendly! It was a birthday celebration & we were allowed to take a cake. Extra plates were provided with no fuss. The food was wonderful & the owner visited with us after the meal. Definitely a place we will revisit!

Let's start with the good...the food was FANTASTIC. It was really delicious and came out piping hot and ready to enjoy. That's why they get 3 stars instead of 2. Chicken Satay, TOP NOTCH. Both entrees were fantastic. We ordered medium spice and were surprised it felt more mild but it was still very delicious. However, that's where good things stop.It was two of us eating. We ordered Chicken Satay and two entrees, all at the same time. The Satay took just shy of 30 minutes to come out. The only reason I know that is because I sent a text to someone as we walked in. After 30 minutes, I told my husband that after 40 minutes, I was going to ask where our food was because we hadn't even received our appetizer yet and nobody had come by to let us know it was taking longer than usual. However, it came out moments later. After the satay, we saw our food about 10-15 minutes later. The waitress even made the comment, "I swear I didn't forget about you guys!!". We laughed it off because things happen but we were there for a little over an hour for a restaurant that wasn't SUPER busy, only moderately busy. We only got checked on a couple times in that hour or so. Everyone was very nice and while the food was good, I don't have the patience to wait over an hour for a couple dishes.

Really good Thai food. I am from DC and the rad na was what it is supposed to be. The portions were great and the food really hit the spot. I have been looking for good Thai food and had given up. This is in my opinion the front runner for good Thai in the springs….
