Staying downtown Iowa City got there at 1 37, hostess told me we close at 1 30 even though the sign says lunch open until 2. Not good business to turn customers away when sign says we are open until 2

Best Thai we've had in Iowa City! They actually spice up their food nicely, unlike other spots who assume we don't actually mean we want it spicy. Great flavors, good portions, and nice ambiance. Can't wait to be back!

I was visiting Iowa for a week and my friend recommended this place as the best thai place in town. Great recommendation I would give it 4.5 stars if I could. My server, alex was very attentive and gave great recommendations for new things to try while dealing with my numerous questions. He recommended the pad bai ka prao which was a 10/10 the plate was clear in 10 minutes. The chicken satay was also very good especially with the different sauces. I loveee the dressing on the small salad it had alot of flavor. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is the panang curry. That is my go-to thai dish and it was good but it wasnt anything special which was a bit disappointing. That being said the overall experience was amazing would definitely go again to try some more dishes!

Always amazing food, the pineapple curry is to die for! This is our special occasion place, and also are very casual place. Highly recommend.

Service was very friendly, atmosphere and decoration were very clean and intriguing. Food was tasty and fresh.. The khi mao was sweeter than in accustomed to but it had great flavor and was cooked very well. I asked for Thai hot and got a good level of spice but it wasn't as spicy as I'd preferred but the food was prepared well and had great flavor.

First time we came here, we ended up leaving because we waited 20+ minutes to be waited on. Second time we had to ask to order 2 times and had to wait 20-25 mins for someone to come. Waiting another 40 minutes for food. Really unfortunate.

Thai Spice is one, if not the best place to eat in Iowa City. Some friends took us there more than a year ago and we wouldn’t mind going every week. Their Tom Yom soup is amazing. Alex is an amazing host!Dietary restrictions: They have excellent dietary options

My partner and I love this restaurant every time we go. Today the pad Thai was a little off, but the curry was amazing. Service was slow but at no fault of the single server working. She was wonderful. We hsve never had a bad experience. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: Tofu is a potential substitute on almost every entrée.

Our 1st meal was so great that my family all wanted to go back the next night and try completely different dishes. Both nights we ate family style, trying a wide variety of dishes. The quality of the food & service was fantastic
