Ordered food online, on a Sunday. Google listed them as open. They use a doordash app for online orders. After placing an order and paying for it, and driving over to the restaurant to pick it up, I discovered it was closed. They went ahead and charged my credit card anyway. Now, 5 days later, Google lists them as open, but trying to call my call is immediately cut off. I sat on the line with doordash, who informed me that it was 5 days ago and they can't refund my money. I'm livid. Just what I wanted to do on my day off.

Absolutely love the pad thai here! Great flavor and portion size. I love that they don't hold back the spice. Service can be hit or miss. Tried some other items, but the only 10/10 is pad thai for me.Pictured:1. Chicken Pad Thai2. Chicken Pad Thai another angle

The appetizers were ok but the food was definitely better. The Thai fried rice is to die for ? it had so much flavor.

Best Thai food I have ever had. Try the brandy noodles with a fried egg on top. *chef's kiss*

The reason it's two stars and not one is we did receive food and it was at least the correct items we ordered. The lemongrass soup was characterless broth with bland vegetables. The salad was missing every ingredient that made it worth ordering, it was lettuce cucumber and peppers with a glob of hot peanut sauce. The curry was ok but it came as a half quart for $15. Jasmine Thai is so far ahead of them in quality they are barely in the same category. Will not return.

Honestly the best Thai food I have ever had! I usually would order from Jasmine Thai but after they never answer the phone and are hard to order from I called Chow Thai! I'm so glad I did, the flavor is amazing! I had the Chicken Pad Thai and the Vegetable Egg Rolls and it was amazing! Treat yourself to this place! I ordered last night and I'm going back again tonight!

Real Thai food cooked by real Thai people. Not sweet like city-style food at other local Thai places, but good up-country style home cooking. Service is very quick, owner can whip up the best Thai in the neighborhood quickly, suitable for lunch break.Came in three more times this week and had some excellent papaya salad very hot, really scrumptious pah loh and stir fried Chinese broccoli with pork. Pad Thai is always perfect.Come in and Chow Down!

Dined with two others and we each chosee a different dish. Everything was fabulous! The owner is super friendly and the service was great! My husband and I agreed that it was some of the best Thai food we have ever had! The prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be return customers!

The sesame chicken is perfect and not soggy at all, so if you love that classic dish get it here. The Thai stir fry was also amazing if you like more authentic Thai cuisine.

This restaurant has only been opened for 5 months but the owner and cook has been doing cooking for many years and is from Thailand. He is very friendly and helpful in ordering. The food is exquisitely seasoned and you can order anything on the menu and it will taste great. He can prepare any other Thai and oriental foods that are not on the menu. The prices are very reasonable. I eat at this restaurant several times a week. The ambiance is very nice

The food here is fantastic. Perfectly prepared and full of flavor. We eat a LOT of Thai food, this is among the best we've ever had. Super impressed!(We are vegan and there was no problem with requesting dishes prepared that way ☺️)

Solid menu, good service, and delicious food. My colleagues and I got apps and entrees and loved everything. So so tasty… can’t wait to order from here again!

Really nice little place, with authentic curry dishes and great soup. We loved the pad see ew, panang curry and Tom yum soup. The dining room was nicely decorated and meticulously clean. Extremely convenient location by the Heights makes it a great date spot. My only quibble is that the host was listening to a Thai language program that was pretty loud and a bit distracting.

Food was okay. Beef Larb was extremely sweet and bland. Really lacked the traditional Larb flavors. Cream cheese wontons were soggy and tasteless. Really really greasy too. Like it had been sitting out. How do you mess up cream cheese wontons? Pho was okay. Also got the fried tilapia in chili sauce which was decent as well. Probably won't go here again. Better restaurants nearby.

Great location, amazing food, and even better customer service. Definitely recommend you to go here. Tons of options.
