Chiangmai Thai Kitchen

As one of the only Thai spots this side of East Texas, I am grateful this place exists. In a sea of the same boring American/Mexican food, you can find this gem tucked in a strip mall next to the closed Burlington. I have been here many times now and have yet to have a bad dish. The classic appetizers such as fried dumplings and crab rangoon are fantastic, the dipping sauces are next level. For entrees, it’s hard to go wrong. I enjoy the cashew chicken, crab fried rice, and the classic pad Thai. The menu and your server will warn you, but definitely be careful with the spice level. It goes up very quickly, the difference between a 2 and a 3 can be shocking! I will continue coming here for good, reliable Thai food. I wish we had more spots like this locally!

Pad kee mao is the way to go. Spicy level 5, of course.

I've eaten here a few times over the years, and I have tried multiple different dishes, none have which have been life altering - just OK. To me, the mark of a good restaurant is making their food so good that you cannot wait to order from them again. You start planning your return before you even get through the meal in front of you. YYesterday, Chiang Mai failed me miserably. These were my problems:

1. The table service was slow. I ordered the chicken satay as an appetizer. 15 minutes went by before another server asked me if I had ordered it and brought it to my table. She then had to go find my server so he'd take my dinner order. There were 3 servers and 5 active tables. Make it make sense.

2. The chicken satay was cold, dry, and flavorless. It tasted like thin chicken strips doused in yellow curry powder and nothing else. The sauces served with it were also lacking in flavor. $8 for that garbage? Give me a break.

3. The thai iced tea was meh at best. I've had it in several other thai restaurants, and this was my least favorite by far. Somehow, however, it was the best part of my meal. $4.

4. The jasmine rice was overcooked and mushy. Sticky rice is fine, but almost rice pudding is not.

5. My fried egg was over hard, barely any yolk left for the Street Style Krapraw. $14.

6. With tax and a $5 tip, my total came out to $34 and change. To me, I can get better tasting food and better service almost anywhere else in town.

I don't mind paying for good food and good service, but when both are bad, I'll never recommend Chiang Mai or go back.

So delicious!

We always get delivery from here. The garlic fried rice, pineapple fried rice. Crab rangoons, Tom yum soup with shrimp is the best! Everything is fresh and delicious! Highly recommend!

Good flavor and very fast service.

Great service, authentic food!

Very small servings.

We LOVE Chiangmai, the food is always outstanding, service is great. Dine in or take out, its always a great experience. Our son is allergic to shellfish and they always take care with his order, even though the rest of us are seafood lovers.

Really good food and great service. I love that the extra spicy has actually got a good kick.

Love this place and go several times a month - ask for extra Pad Thai sauce on your Pad Thai - delicious!

Always one of the best places to eat in longview

Walked in at 8pm and I am now leaving at 818pm and not a single employee said a word to me, i stood by the host stand the entire time. I just wanted a to go order smh

So delicious!! We love it, especially the red curry and pineapple fried rice!

Hit and miss you never know how the wait staff will be and how good the food is if hot.
