Lunch service is fairly efficient, wasn't too busy when I stopped by a Monday afternoon. I did enjoy the salad bar options with the lunch combo (unlimited by the way) with some soups, tempura, Thai salads, spring/eggrolls, and some questionable looking sushi rolls. Entree portions were solid. Noodles were cooked well, kept me full. Nothing amazing but it got the job done. The restaurant and decor's a bit outdated, kind of messy, and the lighting wasn't great. Not the nicest vibe. Heads-up: They put a surcharge (credit card service fee) automatically on your bill so easy to miss (not a fan when restaurants try to get away with that) It's not a significant amount but makes me wonder how many people miss it. read more

Great lunch spot, with a nice appetizer bar to enjoy before your entrée. All of the Thai dishes are authentic tasty. I recommend the Pad See Ew and Green Curry. read more

I wasn't impressed with any of the food and the salad bar was just ok! The restaurant is very old and looks very dirty and not updated for many years. They were nice but the food was not good. I asked for spicy and got bland food. Tai food should have a good spice. read more

Ordered take out after a long day's work. The lady at the front was extremely kind, took my order promptly, and was very organized. I ordered the tom yum soup, beef / basil, and egg rolls. Took about 15 minutes to prepare, and was still hot when I got home. All of the items tasted great and were reasonably priced! I highly recommend! read more

I came in for lunch because I was craving Thai. They had a great a selection, but I settled for the Pad Kee Mao and appetizers bar. That kept me full for the rest of my day. The service was good as the waitress topped off my water often. The restaurant was fairly cleaned and had plenty of seatings. Great for accommodating all customers during the lunch rush. I would come back for lunch. Best Bang for your money hands down. read more

The lunch menu is a great value, and if you can deal with a rather noisy lunch experience and are only there for the food, definitely put it on your bookmarks. I meant fellow Yelper Brian T for lunch and we sat in the back of the restaurant where there's a little alcove and I felt like it registered louder than a Def Leppard concert in the 80s. The appetizer bar is tasty with their crispy tempura, sushi rolls, and Tom Yum soup but the star is the fish sauce and the dried chili flakes. I got the pad see ew pork and the noodles were totally perfect but if it wasn't for the Thai chili flakes and the fish sauce, pepper vinegar, it was a little bland, even with the mild pepper order. The Thai coffee was amazing and at $3.99 it's a good value. I recommend coming, but if you're having a serious lunch conversation, the tile and acoustics definitely are noisy so bring earplugs or learn sign language. read more

This is my favorite Thai food spot in Houston. The service is usually good and it's never too busy unless you go around lunch time. I usually get egg rolls and edamame as an appetizer and the peanut chicken. They finally started serving alcohol under the new owner so that's a plus. The restaurant is in an old house type building so it's a quiet type of dinner spot. Their chili powder is extremely good if you love spicy. read more

Been going here for years to get my to-go orders whenever I'm too busy to cook. Sometimes I pay cash, sometimes I pay with card. What I didn't realize is this restaurant ADDS A FEE for whatever reason, and calling it a Cash Discount -- which is not a discount, as it is added, not subtracted. I'm shocked by this and very disappointed in the way they do business. They printed this when I walked in to pick-up my order, so they didn't know how I was going to pay. This was automatically added regardless of the method of payment. I went home to find two previous receipts, and just noticed this charge was on there. Again, doesn't matter how you pay! read more

One thing I really like about this place is the appetizer bar, I haven't seen that in a while and I like getting the chance to sample a bunch of apps. However some of them looked like they have been sitting there a while. The service is friendly and the food is decent. I got the cashew nut. It was pretty good but not super authentic in my opinion. Big portions though. Also lots of vegan options! read more

This place is one of those "not fancy, but amazing food" category. Food always fresh, tasty and good portion size, although the pad Thai was missing a bit of flavor. the service was fast and good. The restaurant is bring your own bottle kind of deal. So, if you are the type that like a drink with your meal you will need to bring it you. It's is good for small and large parties, and the atmosphere is pretty relaxed and enjoyable. There is a parking lot right across the restaurant. read more

I was hungry and was urgently craving for Thai food and decided to go with Ginger Thai. I did delivery and ordered Pad Thai and Tiger Cry Steak. Yeah, you can't go wrong with Pad Thai... but dude, that Tiger Cry Steak....SALSA?! Dude, that SALSA. It's super tangy and got this crazy burst of flavor every time you dip something with it. It's got a strong flavor but in a good refreshing way. Honestly, I put that sauce on my Pad Thai, that sauce on the rice, the steak, I made an additional potato dish to slather that sauce on too.... I straight stole that sauce from my husband so I can eat it. So: the lesson here is... when you order Tiger Cry Steak, order extra salsa. read more

I should have known. Alongside I-10 there lives a cluster of bars and restaurants that inhabit a small sorta shared space that attracts those looking for a pleasant afternoon, happy hour and meal. We pulled up today hoping to visit one bar and grille and even though it was early the place was hopping and so we made a fatal decision to move to the least populated one of the group, Ginger Thai. We walked into a huge but empty dining room, without a single patron. The menu was expansive and featured a lot of Thai favorites and so despite the empty room, we decided to give it a go...mistake number 2. We started with appetizers, shrimp and pork egg rolls and an order of spring rolls and the oddities continued to build. The eggroll contents had a yellow tint, a sort of jaundiced look with an underlying hint of curry. Different but not unpleasant. The spring rolls appeared to be standard fare until you dipped them into the accompanying peanut sauce which was strangely thin and sweet. Our server was not as knowledgeable of the menu as one would expect and when I asked if the charcoal grilled pork with vermicelli on the menu was a Vietnamese dish or a Thai version she was rendered speechless but ultimately said probably Vietnamese but they likely added something to it. For our mains we ventured to try a Crispy Chicken Pad Thai and the Charcoal grilled pork. The pad thai was again surprisingly sweet though the fried chicken cutlet was a nice touch. The grilled pork had nice grill marks but lacked marinating and the accompanying fish sauce was cloyingly sweet and appeared to be a strange mashup of duck and fish sauces. The building and decor can use repair and updates as well. Looks like this spot may need some revitalization. Not some place I will revisit. read more

This place was recommend by my barber to try out. I was not impressed at all. As far as covid restrictions, they were in place. Masked required upon entry and spacing was good. As far as food, it fell below standards. We ordered Thai basil chicken and yellow curry chicken. I could not taste any basil in my chicken nor could I view any traces of it on the dish. Perhaps they brought a wrong dish. I had requested spice level 4 but felt like eating a level 2. The yellow curried chicken's curry was actually very flavorful, but the potatoes in the dish were raw!!! They were not boiled. In my culture, if u serve a dish with potatoes and they are not boiled/cooked properly, then u will be called out!!! It's embarrassing and insulting. The rice was cheap quality, dried up. Also, it was $4 upgrade to beef or shrimp. First time I've heard that in any Thai restaurant. The most I've paid is about $2. This would have cost $8 extra just to upgrade protein. That's a dish on it's own. We saw our server at time of order and then when it was time for the tab. Sub/par service. I gotta let my barber know to change her opinion of this place. Failure. read more

Fantastic Chicken Pad Thai. Definitely a must try. I usually have a few dishes I stick to but the Pad Thai is now on my list. Plenty of fresh bean sprouts, leeks and peanuts. They added extra tamarind sauce just like I asked. The only thing missing was a slice of lime. Still amazing. Lunch comes with soup or salad so that's a plus. read more

bad experience all round. If you're going to eat at Ginger Thai go to th one on Cinco Ranch rd in Katy. WAY better food and service. read more

Still on my quest for the ultimate thai spot, gave this place a try due to the good reviews. Unfortunately, it was a total bust. They do have the honor for the worst tasting chicken pad thai in memory, it had this offputting chilli taste, with none of the expected thai flavors - cant pay me to eat that again. The masaman curry was also wayy too sweet for my taste. The only thing ok was the pad ke mao, still a bit sweet, but was ok. The location is an older spot with an off putting musty odor. The service was mediocre, had to ask for rice and utensils. Needless to say, wont be going back. read more

The lunch buffet on weekdays is awesome! They have sushi, soup, salad, fruits, veggie tempura, spring rolls, egg rolls, and dessert. The sushi and veggie tempura are especially good. We were seated right away and our orders were taken promptly. Our food arrived extremely quickly; we hadn't even finished our food from the appetizer bar yet! The shrimp Pad Thai was very flavorful and the portion size was huge. Took a lot home for leftovers. I don't think the dinner or weekend lunch prices are worth it, but I would definitely return any weekday lunch for the appetizer bar. read more

It was a little expensive for lunch. The food was meh at best, not bad. They have an appetizer buffet that's not worth it. They didn't have tom yum soup, which is a must if you call yourself a Thai place. Service was a quick. The restaurant could use some updating. I will not be going back, but that shouldn't stop you. Just not for me. read more

Food was not good it was cold and not tasty enough for my liking. Rice had no flavor i should have know if you walk into a restaurant and no one was there. Literally we were the only ones there on a Friday night read more

This Thai restaurant has very good flavors. We ordered Pad Thai with beef, Pad Ke Mao with chicken, Spring rolls and third Panang Curry. My favorite was their Pad Ke Mao but I am a little biased since this is my favorite Thai dish. The service was great as we were greeted and taken care of right away. Everybody was friendly and checked on us consistently. I love spicy food and their spice on the side was amazing, definitely satisfied my need for spiciness. Will definitely go back! read more

BEST THAI FOOD EVER. The panang curry is the best you'll ever eat by far. Also recommend the pad kee mao and spring rolls. read more

You can't go wrong with Ginger Thai. I used to come here constantly for lunch since it was near my office. Was in the area recently and had to pick up dinner to go! Lunch is great here because of the appetizer bar (come hungry!). Dinner is amazing here too- they are extremely generous with the portions and do super well with take out orders. I recently got a yellow curry dinner to go and had leftovers for two separate meals. Soooo delicious! Highly recommend! read more

Excellent food and service!!! LOVE the Thai tea as well!!! Atmosphere is very lovely as well.

Delicious! My pad Thai wasn't spicy enough for me but it's okay I also got Tom yum amazing! And shrimp spring rolls were also great!

Decent lunch spot with most specials running about $10 bucks + coupled with the appetizer buffet and I think Ginger Thai is winning. I tried the L13 spicy seafood and as much as I love spicy food, the heat on that bad boy was nothing nice. Don't think I'll be ordering that again. it was good though so if you have a higher threshold, I say go for it. FYI, the L7 original fried rice with chicken was a table winner as well. I've also tried the flash fried tilapia filet. It was really yummy but a bit on the smallish side. As far as the appetizer buffet goes, it was alright. Thin fried veg rolls, thin spring rolls, fried banana (very good but I took out some of the middle b/c it's a bit too mushy; I'm a firm banana lover), salad with a good amount of toppers, soups, and some sushi. But as a serious sushi lover, it just didn't look appetizing at all. The table service was good every time I've gone, no complaints. Tip: Whatever you do, don't miss out on the Thai tea...it's on point and oooh weeee delicious! read more

I used door dash for this order. I've definitely have had better Thai food, but this place is solid. It's ducked off so you have to find it. The soup is pretty basic and so were the other menu options. People order Thai food to experience the flavor and I feel like I didn't get that from eating here. It's just basic. read more

One of my go to places for take out. The chicken fried rice, pad kee mao, and yellow curry are my favorite. Plenty of flavor and not too spicy. The tomato always taste fresh. Noodles tender. Rice evenly cooked. Only complaint is that I ate indoors with my gf and she ordered teriyaki chicken. The waitress made a face and said "You're ordering Japanese food at a Thai restaurant?" To her credit it didn't taste good but attitude could've been better. So stick with the Thai options on the menu read more

Better get here early if your coming for lunch because the secret is out on this place. You start out with a salad bar that also has egg rolls, spring rolls and basic sushi. But be careful not to keep going back and filling up on this because no matter what you choose for lunch it is good, Watch for the peppers next to the items on the menu to let you know what is spicy but if you see something that you like that does not have a pepper next to it just ask them to make it spicy and they will. Plenty of parking across the street, good food and service make this a place that I have eaten many times before joining Yelp. read more

Best red curry I've had in Houston. They have an appetizer bar free with a meal order. My coworkers and I love going here for a good lunch. If you have a strict hour lunch, this place can sometimes take longer than that but half of the time you can get in and out in less than an hour. read more

Is the American version of Thai food in many ways. I had ordered a yellow beef curry dish and the kee mow beef. I have to admit the curry was really good, but the kee mow was meh. They don't even understand what Thai peppers are when i asked for heated condiment. They will give you chili that's found in most Chinese restaurants. Overall, this is middle of the road so don't expect a lot. read more
