Thai 99 has delicious food! We drive an hour to get there, but their Cashew Chicken is so worth it! They take great care to package up our takeout for the journey home (we usually order several meals) and the folks are always sweet and pleasant. I wish we could get over there more often!

We always have an incredible experience at Thai 99. Amazing food at all heat levels, simple menu, and a personal touch. Jeff and Patty are awesome and kind!

Wonderful, authentic Thai food!
Used to be good idk what happened to it. The tapioca pudding was still the same at least ,but my drunken noodles were overcooked to the point of being mush and also very bland. The guy who took our order seemed like he'd rather be doing anything other than his job and also failed to include silverware with our order. Definitely not worth the 50 dollars i paid for 2 meals

This was one of my favorite places to eat back when I lived here so I was excited to pick some up while in town. I miss being able to dine in but the pick up was fast, only took about 10 minutes from order to pickup for 3 meals. The panang curry was just as delicious and flavorful as I remember and the soup and tapioca pudding were delicious as always. Serving sizes seemed a little smaller than I remembered and I miss getting 2 meals out of a single order for about $13 including tip but I can’t blame Thai 99 for inflation.

What happened to Thai 99? This place used to be so good. I hate leaving bad reviews but feel like they need to improve and quickly.
We got Thai fried rice, which was incredibly bland. There was a tiny bit of seasoning on top, not mixed in. Barely any vegetables, maybe 3 broccoli? Also got the drunken noodles which was better, but still bland. I know they can do much better than this, very disappointed.

i hate to leave a negative review, but it was such an underwhelming and disappointing meal that i can’t leave it be. for almost $50, my mom and me got the vegetarian rolls, pork thai fried rice, red curry and tapioca pudding.
the rolls claimed to have vermicelli noodles, and there was at BEST a tsp worth. it was mainly bland lettuce wrapped in rice paper. the sweet chili sauce was overpowering sweet, with no spice and no peanuts, when they were listed as a topping.
the thai fried rice was bland, veggies were not properly cooked and the pork looked (and tasted), unseasoned and boiled. they also didn’t mix the spice with the rice and when i took a bite, it was a scolding burn in my mouth. really sad. it even looked unappetizing, but i tried to give them the benefit of the doubt.
my mom got the red curry and she enjoyed it somewhat, but said she’d had a lot better. it was absolutely the best of the 3 things we’d had so far, for sure. i did take a couple bites of her rice when my mouth was on fire, and it was clearly unwashed, and had no butter or salt added when cooked.
we finished with the tapioca pudding, and to their credit the flavor was great. tapioca pearls were cooked right, coconut milk wasn’t too sweet and the combo was very comforting. the only complaint with the pudding was it wasn’t a pudding at all. it was such a watery/runny consistency.
we love good thai food, and lynchburg has some great options. unfortunately this is not one. and for the price we paid we expected something much nicer than we got. it’s very sad to be this disappointed in a small business.
i will say that our curbside pick up employee was very sweet, and helpful and attentive. i was thankful for her.
all in all, i will not be back. and i wouldn’t recommend it either.

I travel to Lynchburg for work regularly, and every time I'm in town I get take out from here. Fantastic food. Since COVID it has been curbside pickup only, and the building doesn't look like much (in fact it can be hard to find), but the food is top notch. Be careful when ordering as the family has another location in Charlottesville (I called the wrong one once). You won't be disappointed.
Curbside only, they need to open the dining room back up.
They should name the restaurant to Thai 101 since they do not know how Thai food is prepared. The worst Thai food in America would be this place. Flavors were lacking for Red curry and Basil fried rice. They also left egg shell and hair in the food. We had to discard the food. Server was not nice either and did not even provide napkins or silverware for a place that only do pickups. The location is kinda sketchy as well with abandoned buildings around. I do not know how this place has an overall 4+ rating unless those ratings are old or just artificial paid ratings. Anyways I would not recommend to anyone.

Food was terrible and not worth the money. The food tasted very bland like it had no seasoning. The service was terrible and we received no napkins or silverware. When asked for a couple of napkins only received 2 napkins and silverware when we aren’t even from around this town so we really needed the napkins and the silverware. What were we expected to eat with our hands? The place looked like a shady place and like it was an abandoned building with no sign to locate this business. Not worth a visit at all. I asked for spicy food and the food wasn’t spicy at all.

Rarely get to come here, but I picked up lunch today and it was awesome per usual. I really enjoy the yellow curry, but everything I've sampled has been great!
