24 Best Thai Restaurants in Charlotte

“the drunken noodles were absolutely bomb and the servers are all really nice and the atmosphere was good“

“The Best Thai food in Charlotte. The portions are very generous and the service was AMAZING!!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE THAI BASIL FRIED RICE WITH CHICKEN!!

They start you with a delicious soup and spring roll as appetizers!!

Your meal arrives about 10 minutes after serving your soup!!“

“Lunch dash. The restaurant was big and open with lots of seats. I purposely came for lunch. Their lunch menu is vast with most entreè about $3 cheaper than dinner. I prefer smaller portions but these seem to be regular sized. Typically Im a Fried rice or Pad Thai girl but today I tried the Drunken Noods and Spicy Wonton. They both were just OK. Im not sure what I was expecting. The noods were stick together and dry, the veggies huge and over all flavor lacking. Im not going to give a poor review on food that I've not had before. It wouldn't be fair. I have been to other locations and typically ordered the same thing. Not sure why I was trying to be fancy this time. The staff was sweet. Pretty chill and up beat. I can't rave about the food but the location is great.“

“From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by the warm, inviting atmosphere—elegant but comfortable, perfect for everything from a casual lunch to a special night out. The aroma alone lets you know you’re about to experience something special.

The food? Simply outstanding. Every dish bursts with fresh, vibrant flavors and that perfect balance Thai cuisine is known for—sweet, spicy, savory, and tangy in harmony. The curries are rich and beautifully spiced, the Pad Khee Mao ( Drunkin Noodis) perfectly cooked with just the right texture, and the stir-fries are loaded with crisp vegetables and high-quality ingredients. You can truly taste the freshness in every bite. Portions are generous without being overwhelming, making the pricing even more impressive.

For the quality, presentation, and flavor you receive, the value is exceptional.
What truly sets this place apart, though, is the customer service—especially from Alicia. Alicia goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels valued and cared for. She is attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and happy to make thoughtful recommendations based on your preferences. Her warm personality and genuine enthusiasm elevate the entire dining experience. It’s rare to find service that makes you feel so welcomed and appreciated.

Thai House at Cotswold doesn’t just serve amazing food—it delivers a complete experience. Incredible flavors, fair pricing, generous portions, and top-tier customer service make this restaurant a must-visit. If you haven’t been yet, you’re truly missing out.“

“The Yum Nua (spicy beef salad) was a 7/10 for me. It only had like 6 pieces of beef and a LOT of red onion. The flavor and spice level was pretty good though. Would have been better with more tomatoes and cucumbers if the beef was going to be lacking. I’m not trying to eat forkfuls of onion.

Mango sticky rice was good but overpriced for the size.

The thai tea was NOT good.
It was extremely sugary and lacked that thai tea depth and flavor. It was giving Americanized thai tea vibes.

I spent a little over $30 for a salad, drink, and dessert before tip was added.“

“Greatest restaurant on earth if they would start putting forks in to go orders.“

“I’ve eaten at Thai Thai since it was the king and I on Central Avenue 20 years ago. They’ve recently changed over ownership and I have to say it’s still absolutely fantastic. Very small changes thoughtfully done still fresh authentic and absolutely wonderful!!!“

“I go there forbears the food and ambiance always good !!“

“Comments heard at my table: “This is the best pad Thai I’ve ever had!” Also, “This is the best sushi I’ve ever had!” Extra bonus- gluten-friendly. So glad to have found this place!“

“so amazing! the curry is outstanding and thai hot is the way to go if you're up for it!“

“Best food and service in Steele Creek. I highly recommend!!!“

“Had dinner at Thai House - University and it delivered exactly what a neighborhood Thai spot should.

We ordered the Basil Fried Rice with chicken (added a sunny egg on top), Pad Thai, and the beef skewers.

The basil fried rice was the standout. Great wok flavor, rice wasn’t soggy, and the egg with crispy edges tied everything together perfectly. I ordered medium spice — just right for me, although my wife felt the heat immediately. Thai medium is not American medium, so order wisely.

The Pad Thai was solid and balanced — not overly sweet, good noodle texture, generous portion. The beef skewers were tender with nice char and paired well with the peanut sauce.

Service was friendly, food came out hot, and portions were generous.

Now for my slightly controversial take: in my experience, Asian restaurants are almost never 5-star places. The magic zone is 3.5 to 4 stars. That’s where you usually find the most authentic, no-frills, flavor-first cooking. If a place is too polished, something is probably toned down. Thai House sits right in that sweet spot.

Would absolutely come back.“

“A wonderful experience all around. 🍜“

“Man my first experience eating here was an A+ The food was hittin on all cylinders folks👌🏽😋 The Owner is fun to talk to🎉“

“1st visit and I will be back!“

“Favorite restaurant by far! The food is great and fresh, they cook most meals in front of you, and the service is great! Highly recommend the Korean boa buns, it’s amazing! Visit there very often and so much faster then the other restaurants“

“EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT IN A PAD THAI!!! Huge portion, beautifully spicy (cause I ordered it ‘hot’), and it stayed piping hot 30 mins after I brought it home. This place is 5 mins from my house and most definitely need to make this a regular spot.“

“This place is amazing! The food is fresh, inexpensive, and had lots of options! We visited the kitchen which is next door to the market and ordered from the counter but there were also some dishes that were grab n go. We got the Lao sausage w lo mein and the chicken on a stick with sticky rice and a cucumber salad - the food came out quick, was made fresh to order, and the customer service was great! This restaurant is also located really close to the airport and right off the highway making it an easy stop to grab a great meal and avoid the usual fast food stops on the road. We will definitely be returning!!!“

“Some of the freshest, delicious food in Charlotte. The owners are invested in your experience and have done a wonderful job with their new restaurant. Highly recommended.“

“So good! Had the Tom Kha soup, Shrimp Shumai dumplings and Mussamun Curry. All delicious! Can’t wait to try the Sushi rolls. Everything was over the top good!“

“I saw the great reviews and walked over from my hotel, At first I thought it was closed. Can't see in the windows and drive through closed but don't let that fool you! The grilled tilapia with tomatillo sauce was terrific! I don't eat meat and got the shrimp rolls. Beware, there was pork inside even though only shrimp was listed on the tag. The meat dishes did look fantastic. Premade foods that day that you can just grab and go like the name. They also had a pleasant seating area. It seems like a family restaurant so I'm glad I could support! It was delicious! Its a must try!“

“The food is fresh, large portions and always taste great each time I've ordered. I've been going since they opened. And everyone is always nice.“

“Excellent sushi, always top quality and the servers are warm and friendly. I highly suggest going by to grab some of your favorite sashimi or sushi.“

“ordered sesame chicken and it's the best Chinese I believe I've ever had...I will deff be back for more!“
