50 Best Thai Restaurants near Shoreview

“Myself and my fiancé are from Northern Minnesota and were there in July of last year. There were a couple of minor issues with our visit that day, but the food was delightful. Our server suggested that the manager may want to speak with me in regard to our experience, given the nature of the issues that occurred, so I left my business card and honestly forgot about it, as it wasn't that big of a deal to me. Some time later I received a letter at my office from the manager (I found out later that she's actually the owner.) She sent me a check to refund the cost of our meal, along with a very nice note of explanation and apology. The refund was way above and beyond what was necessary or expected. She took full responsibility for the issues that we had experienced at her establishment that day in July. She also asked for another opportunity to serve us the next time that we were in the area. This was a very classy (but unexpected) response to what I would consider to be something that wasn't that big of a deal to me, but it clearly was to her. Given the high standards that she clearly demonstrated for her establishment, there was no doubt that I would honor her request for a second opportunity. This last Saturday we were finally in town again and were able to visit the Basil Café for a second time. We had an absolutely delightful experience in every regard! After our meal, I asked the pleasant young lady that was checking on us if the manager happened to be in on a Saturday. Well, that turned out to be her! Her name is Tiffany, and she is the owner of the Basil Café. I introduced myself to her and she not only remembered the letter that she had sent and the small issues that occurred on our previous visit, but she also remembered my full name from memory!!! We had a very nice conversation and she sent us home with some extra spring rolls that we enjoyed at home later that evening. Tiffany, I also run a business, and the way that you treated us and handled that situation is an impressive lesson in customer service and leadership. You didn't just recover us as customers, you created 2 raving fans of your business through your actions and demeanor along with your wonderful cuisine. You easily could have brushed off the initial experience that we had last year. And, while we weren't upset about it, we likely wouldn't have thought to ever return to your establishment if you had. Instead, you held yourself and your wonderful restaurant to a higher standard, and you made 2 raving fans that will return again and again and will recommend your establishment at every opportunity. Tiffany, thank you for a wonderful dining experience and thank you for a refreshing attitude and demonstration of personal responsibility that you so impressively gave. That level of service and attention to detail is rare in our world today. BTW, the Drunken Noodles are delicious and so are the Spring rolls. We will see you again soon. - Jake & E.“

“Love love love this place!! We’ve been 3 times now and every time we always feel so welcome. Like we’re guests in their home. The food is excellent, prices great and exceptional service. Food is always hot and fresh and beautifully served. Our favorite place! Highly recommend!“

“Great food and friendly staff. Come support our neighbors and their local business by enjoying a tasty meal!“

“Ordered delivery. They don’t mess around. I ordered their special fried rice - there was plenty shrimp and meat, and the rice had that wok hei flavor. If a staple like fried rice is good then this bodes well for the rest of the menu. My fiancé loved the coconut curry. I look forward to trying other items on the menu.“

“Delectable flavors and a generous portion for both entrées. I highly recommend.KARTA Thai for quality flavorful food without MSG. The decor is pleasant with much natural light. We will definitely return.“

“Service was great and the beef boat noodles is very savory. My new fav spot for boat noodles. Their cucumber salad was on point too! I finished the cucumber and took the sauce home because it was that delicious! What a hidden gem! Will be returning for sure and will be trying their other dishes. First time in a long time finding a restaurant where I was “Wow’d”. Must try!!“

“If you've ever been to Thailand, you'll appreciate this restaurant. It's the same cuisine, same spices they use for cooking, that amazing! It was look and feel like we visited Thailand again. All dishes are fresh and delicious. Tom Yam soup cooked by classic recipe pretty good. If you feel nostalgic about Thai food or looking for something new, it's good restaurant for visiting.“

“Amazing food, kind staff, reasonable prices“

“The best Lao food I have had at a restaurant in a long time! I was impressed the first time I tried and have been ever since!“

“The tofu red curry was wonderful, excellent spring rolls, and also really good cream cheese wontons (I'm picky about these, they can be too sweet... but these were just right). Everything was very fresh and flavorful.“

“Food is amazing and service is friendly as ever“

“Haven’t been here in a long time and picked it up last nite. Highly recommend! All dishes we got were fresh and delicious! My daughter has celiac and sam said anything on the menu can be gluten free, she loved the chicken and broccoli and he even packaged it separately to ensure it was safe for her. Highly recommend!“

“Best Thai place in the twin cities in my opinion! Specifically if you like curry - I have ordered takeout from here probably over 200 times over the last 5 years - I’m not joking, and every time I get the Pineapple Curry with Chicken, I hope this place stays open for as long as I live because it is my absolutely favorite meal.“

“Pad Thai and spring rolls.“

“Ordered a variety of items. Curry, soup, noodles, etc. All 10 out of 10. Literally some of the best food We’ve ever had. Owner cooked. She is a meticulous chef with rare talent. You won’t be disappointed, no matter what you order“

“UPDATED to say that this place is such a hidden gem and I need more people to know about it. This recent time, I had the Yangon beef curry and it was perfection. The stuffed tofu was great and the tea leaf salad was just as delightful as it was the previous time. I really like that they can omit the fish sauce in the tea leaf salad and stuffed tofu. Consistency matters and this place has it.
-----
Really enjoyed the tea leaf salad. Highly recommend! I wanted to try the boat noodles but they said they were out of it. We were there an hour after they opened on a Saturday and there were only 3 other parties there. I guess they don't have it consistently. The yellow curry was pretty good. I also enjoyed the pad thai. I like that they can make some things vegetarian/vegan. I'd come back.“

“My new favorite restaurant! Great food, atmosphere, and friendly owners.“

“Food was ok for the price. Boat noodle had flavor and plenty of meat. Special pho(seafood) was a little bland and lacked flavor. Noodle portion to broth felt little. I would suggest using a smaller bowl to match the portions. Spring roll was presented well and fresh. Frog legs had a lot of flavor. I would suggest if you're eating here to get the more traditional dishes and stay away from the dishes you can get at other places, like the pho. Zero wait time and food came out within 10 mins and was fresh.“

“Some of the best Thai food in St. Paul, and very warm and friendly staff!“

“Delicious I would recommend this place very highly Thai it you like it !!❤️“

“Always my go-to Asian food, quality is much better than the stuff you get elsewhere in the skyway. The portion size is decent. The food tastes better, too. The stir fry dishes and curries are my go-to. I usually eat them with white rice. They have great service, quick and efficient, and the rice is usually cooked well.“

“Just finished our wedding at Thai Twist and the owner Chery was VERY kind to us and looked out for us to very step. We had a blast here and most of the staff were very good at their job🙂‍↕️ also shout out to the security guards for helping us find our missing person! lol too much fun and lost somebody! Come check out the place for yourself! Everybody’s experience is different so come see for yourself!“

“I had the chicken birria fries and chicken birria taco. Omg that taco stole the show hands down, the best birria taco I’ve ever had. I also loved the birria fries with the Ka’Ris corn (get the corn! It’s amazing and I hate elotes in a cup). But I cannot say enough about the birria taco, just try it! This is now my new favorite taco spot.“

“Great people, great food, and great morals. Thank you!“

“Great food, highly recommend Rocky’s platter and sticky rice! Hmong sausage is also delicious!“

“Very reasonable and everything we ordered was amazing. Definitely check them out!“

“On’s is the best Thai food in the Twin Cities. The spices in the dish were perfect. I think it was the best Pad Se Ew I’ve ever had, and it was easy to order vegan. Also a great place if you want your food really spicy!“

“Our food was cooked while we waited, about 4 minutes. The pad thai was the best we have ever had. The egg rolls were excellent. The carrot pieces were a bit crunchy and we found out they were better than over cooked ones from other restaurants.“

“Once again this place is incredible. I ordered the lao papaya salad with salted black crab on Wednesday and I can only have two bites a day because it's so spicy but they've been the best 8 bites of my life“

“Best papaya!!! I could not stop eating it!“

“I had the Thai BBQ Chicken (Gai Yang) today. It was freaking delicious. Tons of flavor, it was chicken thigh which was cooked properly with skin on, well marinated. The sauce had a lot of heat and some fish notes, only down side was the rice was a little dry, but other than that, I will be back. Please support this place, they are unique for DT and do a great job. Order as the kiosk at the entrance but I'm sure if you had questions they would be happy to ask them behind the counter.“

“Our favorite outing is Sabbai with a beer at east lake. Alisa always remembers us, her family and team are wonderful and the food is best!! They make the hottest Pad Thai in the twin cities and offer vegan among many ways to customize your order“

“I ate there today with my daughters and everything was delicious! One wanted spicy and one wanted plain. The restaurant handled both requests perfectly! Everyone was great and so kind :) Top notch!“

“I am not in the area to visit this business but if you are or passing through Minnesota stop in. Tell them Josh sent you! They are kind and caring about their community and gave free meals to the Homeless. So please give them a visit. *I heard the food is a #10 too! Thanks Kong’s Kitchen!“

“Our first time here. The sake and plum wine were delicious. The atmosphere was relaxing, tall ceilings and dim lighting. The food was exquisite, the vegetable tempura was perfectly prepared, and we both loved our entrees. The server was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We both plan on coming back.“

“Best Tempura ever and the Rice Noodles Amazing but that Mango Sticky Rice was to DIE FOR 💥❤️“

“great soup. service, owners friendly, enough room and tables“

“Good food and service! “East Side Local!”“

“Ordered takeout from here for the first time while working on trying all the Thai restaurants that are within delivery range. This was by far one of my favorite Thai orders in many years - we had the khao soi curry, red curry fried rice, pad Thai along with a couple apps and were floored with how amazing everything was. They actually apply the heat! Will definitely be ordering from here again in the near future.“

“Muy buen servicio, empleados muy atentos.“

“I'm not a sushi fan, so I got shrimp pad thai, which was excellent. "Medium" spice was enough for me. My dad got a custom sushi roll that was made perfectly to order, which he really loved. Our server was friendly and very knowledgeable. We'll be back!“

“Nothing hits the spot like authentic Thai food from Thai Boat 89! We had their crispy pork belly, Pad Ka Pao, and fresh spring rolls — every bite was perfection 😋🔥 Definitely a must-try if you love bold flavors and that perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory!“

“Amazing service, quick and delish!“

“the whole experience of hot pot was great! parking was a bit hard and I wish the plates were smaller to fit all foods on the table. I love the sauces, one is spicy/ savory and one is acidic/sweet. great amount of meat! the owner suggest the tricolor so it was good as well. would definitely come back!“

“Stopped by Sawatdee for dinner and tried the Tom Kha, duck curry, and vegetarian spring rolls.

Everything tasted very fresh. The spring rolls were delicious. The wrapper was a little loose, but that’s fine. They were plentiful for the price. Two large pieces, halved. I actually stopped myself from finishing them so I could enjoy the rest of the order.

The Tom Kha was flavorful and came in a huge entrée-sized portion. Fresh kaffir lime leaves gave it a glorious depth. The lemongrass was clearly fresh and imparted exactly the flavor you want. It tasted exactly as expected, but the portion was massive, easily two to three times the size of places like Amazing Thai. For the price, it was perfect.

The duck curry was great. The duck was tasty, the red curry blend was on point, and it was only $18. That’s compared to $30 at places like Amazing Thai for less food.

Sawatdee gets treated a bit like fast casual, but the flavor absolutely competes with the best of them, especially if you care about value. Great dinner all around. It smacks!! :)

Service was also excellent. The gentleman who served me was attentive and personable. Couldn’t have asked for better. Thanks for a great dinner and a great experience.“
