Thai House of Orlando Restaurant

Love the classic Thai food found here - an Orlando staple for so long! The appetizers like crab Rangoon and spring rolls are always super fresh and crispy, and the curries are delicious and seasoned with as much heat as you’d like. We have been here with coworkers, family and friends and have never left hungry or not pleased with the food. The interior is somewhat dated and the AC isn’t always 100% but it’s always clean and the food is amazing.

Gross Pad See Ew Takeout. I felt like I was robbed The food was tasteless, had NO flavor and they gave me the equivalent of 1.5 ounces of noodles that were all stuck together for close to $20 including tax. The noodles should be very wide. These looked like they were egg noodles. not the standard noodle for this dish which I’ve had many times.

When I got home I was upset that I had to do so much and add to this in order to make it somewhat palatable. YUCK.

The next day I still needed my Thai fix so I tried Pop Thai and it was Night and Day difference. I got close to 3X the noodles, they were hot and fresh and flavorful. I didn’t want to go back to Dr P for Good Thai so thought I’d try that place on Colonial.

Shame on Thai House on Colonial.
Not sure who is writing these reviews or if they give people to go their trash but you could not pay me to return.not to eat in and not to take out!I seriously feel like returning the next day with my duck sauce drowned half Tupperware filled pad see Ew and ask them for my $$ back.

The staff here are always very friendly and accommodating. The portion sizes are a bit too small, however I’m appreciative of the tasty vegan options! The Pad Se Ew & Phad Panang veganized is always a go to.

It’s No Meat Friday so my wife and I decided to share family-style, even though it was just the two of us. This is the only way to experience both dishes. We ordered the prawns in chili sauce and seafood Pad Thai, both of which came with large shrimp. The prawns in chili sauce weren’t spicy at all and the squid in the Pad Thai was a bit rubbery. I don’t remember tasting any crab meat, either. Still, both dishes were delicious and we really enjoyed our lunch. Outstanding service that exceeded all expectations.

We tried this place since it's nearby and seems to have lots of good reviews.
Decor/environment:
The decor consists of parquet or wood paneling on nearly every surface. The place has the feel of a local family restaurant. Even though I had never been there, it felt familiar and inviting.
Drinks:
My partner got a Thai tea and it was just average. I got the Thai coffee, expecting Thai tea with added espresso, but it was just drip coffee and sweetened milk for ~$6.
Appetizers:
We ordered the fried dumplings, and that is the only part of the meal that was enjoyable.
Entrees:
I ordered the "Garlic Meat" with chicken & shrimp. My partner got the Phad Broccoli. Everything lacked flavor. There was very little seasoning (if any at all), no spice or kick like we expect from Thai food. It seemed like everything came precooked from a bag and was just heated up. I would compare the quality of the meal to one of those budget all-you-can-eat Chinese buffets that are all the exact same no matter where you are in the country, but with one small portion instead of unlimited. I've had frozen dinners with more flavor. The garlic sauce was oily, but tasted alright (like garlic). I would compare the quality of the chicken to what you would get at Wawa or Taco Bell..like the overly processed kind that is cooked in the factory then sealed in a bag to be shipped. I probably should have ordered the duck instead. We ended up using nearly half the pepper shaker on our table just to add any flavor to the blandness of the food. My white grandma from the mid-west uses more spices than this place when she cooks.
Service:
The servers were friendly. The entrees came out really fast, but that is probably because they just scoop it out of a steam heated tray and add whatever sauce you choose. It took less than two minutes from the time we ordered our entree for our food to come out, indicating that they did not cook the chicken to order.
Conclusion:
I would say this place is to Thai food what Panda Express is to Chinese food, but with less flavor than Panda Express and more of a local feel. If you're the kind of person who eats everything plain without seasoning, only eats a little bit at a time, and enjoys fast service from a friendly staff, I would recommend Thai House to you.

Pretty plain/bland for Thai. The dish I got just tasted like the seasoning was chicken broth. They were out of brown rice, as well :(

Went in based on prior reviews. What a disappointment. Tasteless food. We had to return a plate,the meat was like chewing gum,it was supposed to be replaced by a curry but they brought a different dish. The jasmine tea we ordered was never delivered.

We go here at least once a month. It's amazing! Nothing super fancy but amazing!!! It's the only Thai restaurant that we will even go to. Found it when we were living off of colonial in Orlando. Ranked Second would be siam Garden in Winterpark. They make things almost the same. Every time our family tries a new restaurant we always think to ourselves.......Why didn't we just go to Thai house?

Kid-friendliness: Our kids have been going here with us for years!!! It's our favorite restaurant.

My boyfriend and I popped into Thai House of Orlando for a quick lunch before grocery shopping, and let me tell you—this place was a whole vibe.

When we arrived, we were the only ones there, which felt like being VIPs at a private Thai dining experience. But just as we got cozy, the place started buzzing with more diners, proving this spot is no hidden secret.

First, let’s talk about the seating situation. They have a traditional seating area for larger parties that I’ve never seen before—like a high-rise booth, but without seats. You’re expected to sit on the floor crisscross applesauce, kindergarten style, which instantly made me nostalgic and slightly terrified of my inflexibility. But hey, when in Rome…or Thailand. (No cultural disrespect intended—it was actually super cool and made me wish I’d come with a group just to try it out!)

Our server was incredibly sweet and made the experience even better. And the Christmas decorations? Chef’s kiss. It felt like we were dining in Santa’s workshop, but with spring rolls instead of cookies.

Speaking of spring rolls, those were crispy, fresh, and disappeared from our plate faster than you can say "Pad Thai." I had the Pad Thai for my main dish, and it hit all the right notes—savory, nutty, and comforting. My boyfriend went for chicken and beef with veggies and rice, and his plate looked so good I considered stealing a bite. (Okay, fine, I didn't steal a bite. I can't eat beef. That's probably why he ordered it.)

Thai House is the perfect mix of charm, good food, and a sprinkle of whimsy with the seating and decor. Would I come back? Probably. But next time, I’m bringing friends so we can experience the no chair booth in all its glory.
