Had dinner with my daughter, we loved everything. I was really surprised to find out the owner is doing everything-front and back house. She was so kind and take great pride in her food/service. We will be back.

A little hole in the wall! Mama, pop shop with delicious authentic Thai food. My boyfriend and I are visiting from Austin and we are highly impressed with how tasteful our two dishes were. We got the Pad Se Eaw and a Pad Thai and it was seasoned to perfection. The dishes were such reasonable price. Don’t let the atmosphere fool you with the open kitchen. When we dined in it was a one man shop; the sweetest lady was the host, waitress and chef she was the most heart warming thing. It breaks my heart to see an elder work this hard on her own. She deserves all the business. So when dining please be kind and understanding. If we could rate higher than 5 stars for the food and service we would. Thai house deserve all the love in the world.

owner is so sweet! She was the host, waitress, and chef all in one. Our food was made with love. Definitely returning
What a great restaurant - food made fresh right in front of you! The owner moved here from Thailand 50 years ago. The food is flavorful - I got Pad See Ew and dumplings and thought it was great!

Nice owner who loves her job and runs a one woman show. Small groups only.

Nice lady. Delicious food. However… Decor outdated and musty smell. I am writing this review, however, because there was a broken piece of ceramic in the food that I pulled out of my mouth.

I was driving through and decided to stop at a local restaurant for lunch. Didn't expect it to be a Thai restaurant, but I'm glad it was.
Upon first entering, you do notice the setup is still post-c*vid so there restaurant is still set up as a to-go place, but there are a few tables set up for dine-in. There were tables with to-go menus, boxes, and to-go utensil packages ready for customers.
There were many plants inside, and the feel of authentic Thai art and vibes were pleasing.
Water was served in a bottle, which was nice as I would take that over city tap water any day. The menu was large for a small restaurant, and I'm glad there was a tofu option on most of the dishes.
The owner is the only worker in the building, so we chatted for a while. It sounds like a struggle these days, with the rampant homeless in the area and constant spam calls to local businesses, albut the owner was still pushing through the hard times. I arrived as soon as they opened, which was nice as I didn't have to wait for a table. I wish people would stop at local restaurants over the chain restaurants down the street. I find it hard to see people struggle even more when they struggle with a business in a city that caters to larger corporations.
The food was delicious, and it was the right amount. Not too much and not too less. Goldilocks would have been satisfied, too. This restaurant has been around for 41 years, and this may be their last year, so I'll be back to support them and bring awareness to small business, and especially small restaurants.

Can confirm. It really does feel like visiting grandma’s house. The food tasted great. Pad Thai was a solid choice. Since we were the only people in there at the time, it was nice and quiet.

Thai House is dine-in and to-go restaurant with standard Thai fare. It’s located on Carlisle and Indian School Rd. in an unassuming strip mall between Dulce and iRepairNM. There’s a free shared parking lot in front. There’s not an ambience to speak of because the cooking, storage, and seating areas are in one big room and it feels haphazardly thrown together.
I’ve tried Thai House twice, both times with fried rices. Today I had the pineapple fried rice, mild, with tofu. It was unimaginative and flavorless, just like last time. I had been hoping they were having an off night the first time I visited, but I guess this is the standard. My husband said his dish was the same, but we finished them because we were hungry.
I wouldn’t recommend Thai House, or go back. It’s flavorless food in a storage hanger; there’s no draw.

I had such high expectations of this restaurant, the hand written signs, the decor, the open kitchen setting, it felt like we were at a Thai grandmas house! Until…we actually got the food. We enjoyed the vegetarian egg rolls, it had a great sauce. As for the main course, fried rice with pork and pad see ew, they had absolutely no flavor. As you can see our food had no color. You can usually judge food based on the way it looks and I’ve never been served clear noodles with no seasoning in Thailand or any Thai restaurant. I also ordered a Thai tea and it was too sweet. I don’t know if she’s trying to appeal to the American palate but we were disappointed in the taste. I love supporting local businesses but I don’t think this is the best place for Thai food.
