This was a hit and miss. We love Thailand and spent several months in the Kingdom of Smile in the past, it's fair to say that we are deeply familiar with the local cousine.Lamaii gets the vibe right, the smells and the interior can be in a trendy bar in Bangkok.The food takes an american twist on the classics, unfortunately. Deep fried and oil soaked makes otherwise delightfully light courses super heavy.My panang curry had no vegetables, just the sauce (which was very tasty), and shell on (!!) shrimps deepfried. There are some versions of this shrimp that has very light shell so deepfrying makes it edible... mine was not this variety unfortunately. The endresult was that I had to throw out almost all of the shrimps and I was left with the sauce and rice.

The best Thai restaurant in Vegas. Great cozy atmosphere. Awesome food. I highly recommend the pad sen lobster, lime&chili wings, and crispy pork. I've been here 4 times and haven't had a dish I didn't like.Extensive wine selection.They need more servers. When the place fills up, it can be hard to get their attention, but they are pleasant and knowledgeable when you have it.Being your significant other and enjoy a lovely evening.

This is my third time at Lamaii and I have been to both locations and both have excellent service and impeccable food. The chefs would come around asking guests how their food was and made sure all the guests were happy. The atmosphere at the Spring Mountain location is a lot more intimate and gives off date night vibes while the location in Henderson is more for family dinners and with friends. Their wine selection is massive and the atmosphere is inviting and calm. It is a great place to spend time with friends and eat a yummy dinner.

Very unique Thai food. Many dishes we had never heard of. All excellent except for the spicy crab with vermicelli noodles. We thought that it was too strong and the crab was mushy, not firm.

This place is super cute and small locally owned and delicious!!Get here and try those GREEN BEANS!! The garlic buttery green beans I would come back for daily if I could.The crispy duck Panang was delicious and crispiness of the duck was perfect in the sauce and not soggy.The crispy duck drunken noodles were phenomenal, wish it had more noodles but the sauce and peppers were spectacular.Thai tea is freshly made and tasty without being overly sweet.The service was efficient and exceptional, I actually loved the ambiance and the music too.

Tried out Lamaii today and it was pretty good! I had the pad thai which was solid and the pad see ew was also good! The star was the wing zaap which are spicy fried chicken wings with lime and chili dry rub, they were delicious! The only knock was the portions were a bit small. Staff was friendly and a huge parking lot right off Spring mountain road and Arville. Additional photos on my profile page as well as videos on my YouTube.
It was authentic Thai food, followed by American and Mexican food, so it was delicious and perfect for a mid-day break.

Absolutely wonderful restaurant! Great atmosphere! Lights are very dim for dinner so be prepared with your phone light if you can't see well (like us?). Booths are a good size to comfortably sit 6-8 people. Food and service was absolutely AMAZING! Service was fast and food was hot! We really enjoyed the appetizers (green beans, eggplant, taro wraps and chicken wings). The main dishes were even better!!

Wasn't the best. If you're looking for amazing Thai food this ain't it. This place is classy and nice inside. The food presentation is great but that's where it stops. The Khao Soi wasn't my favorite and was a bit off. The dishes are all small. We all left hungry even ordering appetizers. The Khao Soi is about half of what I'm used to getting at other places. The nice thing was our 9 year old niece ate all of her food because the dishes were so small. The egg roll was the tiniest little things I've ever seen. They are a little bigger than the size of a Tootsie Roll. Literally didn't even know that was possible. Half the amount you would normally get elsewhere for the same price. I noticed some other tables had way more food on their plates. So I guess they didn't want us to come back. The service was also super slow. Don't come here if your in a hurry. When we first got their one group left because no one seated them or greeted them. They are that slow. That should of been my sign to leave.

Lamaii had some of the best food of any variety in Vegas. Great contrast to some of the big chain places with its unique decor & menu. The green beans are a must as well as the drunken noodles, but everything I've ever had is top tier. Service is always excellent, Pear is the best hands down!! She makes you feel at home & welcome...unmatched!! Will always come back here & would go even more if there was one in Summerlin ? (hint)
