Best Thai in town! Lime Leaf is a Spartanburg institution run by friendly, caring folks with an attention to consistent quality.

I enjoy this Thai restaurant. It has a great Thai look and feel. It's a little dark and cozy. The food can sometimes lack salt but that's preference. My only concern about this place is the service time. The single waitress was super sweet and kind but she handled all of the tables. It's downtown so people are looking to get in and out in less than 1 hour. It seldom happens to be done in that time frame. Perhaps due to staffing, ‍ So go when you don't have a time crunch and enjoy your meal read more

Service is the best. Friendly and remembers repeat customers. The ambiance is quiet and clean. They have a small bar area. The menu is large and they will "custom" most things listed especially with regard to "heat". I love their pineapple rice served in 1/2 pineapple. The rice has pineapple, raisins and cashews in it. You can add seafood, chicken, pork or steak. Prices are very affordable and the quantity is huge. I always get 2 or 3 meals from my order. It is just as good reheated the next day! I highly recommend. read more

Lime Leaf - Pineapple Rice with chicken - Thai Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Still got it! It's been a good two years since I've been here but it's still got it! From the the Spring Rolls to the Tom Kha yo my Chicken Pad Thai everyone at my table raved about the food. My mother and sister had tofu for days and it was delish as well. There may be lots of "new restaurants" downtown but if you've not tried this one I highly recommend to give it a try! read more

Had a rough day and came here for a comforting dinner, and was not disappointed!! I had a bowl of Tom Kha soup with chicken, which was refreshing and cozy, and the Crispy Thai Wontons, which were rich in flavor and in crunch. The service was super friendly, and the atmosphere was perfectly chill after a hectic day. I can't wait to eat here again!! read more

Lime Leaf - Tom Kha Soup Crispy Thai Spring Rolls - Thai Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

I've been a lime leaf fan for years. Not sure what's happening recently. My favorite dish is the gang massaman. I ordered it a month ago, and the curry was watery and bland. No flavor. Potatoes were undercooked. I hoped that it was just an off night. Same thing happened last night. Disappointed. read more

We were seated immediately and our server brought water right away. We ordered green curry with chicken and a pad thai with chicken. Server brought over a complimentary spring roll and chicken broth soup. That was a nice touch as it was kind of a chilly day. The food came pretty quickly and both were tasty. Portions were just right for lunch. Our server was by himself and was getting busier but he didn't skip a beat. He checked back to make sure our food was good. He was pleasant and efficient. I asked his name - Ryan. He was very busy but handled it like a pro. The decor was authentic and clean, music level was just right. I would eat here again. Forgot to take pictures of our meal. read more

One of my first meals when I first moved to the area this summer. The food is fresh hot and plentiful. I can't remember what we ordered but I remember it was delicious and the service was great.Close to live music and other fun. Joe that I'm all settled in. I'll be back. read more

We are lime leaf regulars. We enjoy all of their food. The servers are excellent. Our favorite is Costa Mesa Joe. Our favorite go to's are stirfry with steak, sesame chicken, sweet/sour chicken and fried rice. They do great cocktails as well! read more

Let's start with the food... delicious! I had the Yellow Curry Chicken and it was very good. It's bland looking (hello yellow!) but so flavorful. Spice ratings are accurate so don't be a hero! This is not very spicy though, just enough. I also enjoyed the soup and spring roll (more please!). We had to wait for someone to acknowledge us at the front, but once we sat food was out quickly. Our waiter was great too. He even reminded us that gratuity was automatically added due to us being a party of six - which many do not disclose upfront. The ambiance was nice. The restaurant is not large and most tables are meant for 2-4. read more

Even though there can be a wait to get your food, it was always tasty and staff was friendly.

Caters to vegans and everyone. good service . You can choose spicy or however you like it. Veggies were fresh tasting.

Certainly underrated. Service is phenomenal, and they certainly remember repeat customers. Food is great; it's authentic Thai, and has good flavors, balance and makes you feel full without making you feel heavy. It's a cozy and small space, but it's very comfortable. Will certainly be there a lit more often! read more

Regularly get lunch specials which are good. Went to dinner on April 7, got 2 Pad Thai chicken , Pad Sea-Ew chicken, Lo-Mein beef, Lo Mein chicken, and 3 children's dinners. ALL DINNERS were tasteless, didn't appear to be cooked right. Very disappointed for the amount of money we spent. Do not recommend this place and won't be going there again. Very disappointing. Server never asked how our food was. Plus the Pad Thai dinners had tofu along with the chicken and beef read more

Nice Thai atmosphere with a large variety on the menu! Delicious papaya salad, yummy green curry and nice twist on Pad See-Ew! Portions were really generous too! read more

The ambiance, service and food did not disappoint. If you are in the area, you should definitely visit this restaurant. They give large servings as well. Well worth the time and money. read more

Soooooo good!!! My coworker and I went here for lunch and we will be returning! It is in such a good spot downtown and the price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. I got the spicy stir fry (photo below!) and it came with the lunch special egg roll and soup. I will probably be trying something different when I do return! Service was quick and so friendly! The atmosphere was great as well. read more

Very good Thai food with five-plus star service. I was in the area on business and followed the Yelp reviews. There were two in my party with us getting pad see ew and pad Thai. The portions were very generous and the prices reasonable. The dishes were flavorful and well enjoyed. They had a small beer selection which paired well. Overall, very nice experience. read more

Dinner on a Saturday night and there was no wait... the restaurant was fairly busy though. It's a long narrow space with a bar toward the back. Lots of Thai decorations and red walls making the ambiance quite nice. We started with the Papaya salad app. The portion was a little small, but the taste was excellent! It wasn't spicy at all and we were not asked if we wanted it spicy when we ordered it. For my main course I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai. I chose a 4 on their 1-4 spicy scale. The spice level was not super spicy but it was adequate. The flavor was good but I would say this version of Pad Thai was sweeter than most others I have had. The portion size was good. Our service was pretty good. Our server was busy and her tables were spread out all over the restaurant so there were some longer gaps between visits to check on us. But she was very polite and friendly. Overall a good experience and I would definitely visit again. read more

Great place, server was prompt, great decor and the food was delicious! We had a great date night!

The food was great! Service wonderful and the ambience of the restaurant is lovely. Will be back again. (Not sure why it doesn't have more stars) read more

This was my first visit, and I ordered pad Thai with tofu. I came to pick it up and it was hot and ready, and the server that rang me up was very friendly! I got home to eat it, and the pad Thai was very over-cooked and soft. The flavor was almost there but it was a mushy Playdoh-like texture. With all of their other Thai options in town, I don't plan on returning. read more

Employee with the blonde hair was very unprofessional. He followed us out the door and told us we didn't pay him enough for a tip. He said he can't pay his rent for what we left. We went back in to speak with a manager and tell him what the employee said to us. The employee processed to speak over us and starts cussing and telling us to never come back. Very very unprofessional. read more

The location is great, but the restaurant is dated and not the cleanest. The bathrooms need an overhaul. The appetizer was great (Tofu Tod) but the dinners were underwhelming and seemed to be full of butter which is quite different than I am used to for Thai food. There was also a 5 minute gap between the last dish coming out, leaving one diner waiting. read more

Worst Thai food ever. The ambiance was unusual and the place smelled and looked like an old, dusty, dingy cigar bar. We ordered dumplings which took an extremely long time to come out and we had to ask for plates and sauce. For our main, we asked for chicken fried rice (mild) and it was definitely on the hot end of the flavor spectrum and the meat had an unusual texture so I can't confirm that it was chicken. The topper to the evening was our waiter who lacked personality and kept touching his hair and delivering food. Just gross! Overall, everything was poor at best. One star is way to generous. read more

In town for one night and stopped in for a quick bite. Everything was delicious. We had shrimp rolls, spring rolls, tempura eggplant, Tom kha soup, and yellow curry beef. The best thing was the eggplant! Service was great and so was the atmosphere. I'd definitely come back when in town! read more

Our server, Joe was so attentive and suggested some appetizers that were delicious. Eggplant isn't usually something I would order. It was so light and tasty. Yum. My entree was exceptionally flavorful with shrimp, mixed vegetables,'mushrooms. read more

Food was delicious-everyone enjoyed their meals. Service was great as well. Definitely going back.

If you're looking for Thai food skip this place, because this isn't it. I ordered the crispy curry chicken for lunch and wow I'm shocked that this was actually served at a restaurant. It was literally a half inch chicken breast battered and fried with a scoop of white rice, 4 pieces of steamed broccoli and a tiny cup of curry. This saddens me because Thai curry is usually one of my favorite dishes mmm looking at you Khao Soi. Save your time and money and go else where, anywhere and skip this place because it's criminal that it was this bad. read more

Always love the food here. Smaller menu than some places but what they focus on is amazingly good. Attentive and pleasant wait staff. It's one of my favorite places to go when visiting Spart'g. read more

I would have given them NO stars but this app wouldn't let me. I ordered a grilled chicken salad that is $8.95. What I got was a very thin almost freezed dried piece of chicken about the size 3 fingers wide on about 5 pieces of lettuce with 3 pieces of tomatoes, 3 tiny pieces of the heart of a pineapple, with 3 cashews, and no dressing or cucumbers. When I called to complain about this so called salad. The guy answering the phone didn't want to hear it because he gave HUB City salad dressing to send to me. I got more salad dressing than I got salad. When I was complaining to the guy about this so called salad his comment to me was "Oh well, mam I don't know what to tell you. This is how we have been making the salad for 14 years and you are the first to complain." He then hung up the phone on me. They are rude and they are thieves. They got my first and last bit of business!! Their food and service both suck!!!! Do NOT give them your business! There are far better places to eat in Spartanburg. read more

We visited on a Monday night and it wasn't very busy. That said it did take awhile for us to be seated, have our order taken, and get the check. We also didn't have anyone check on us until we were done eating. We had to stop another waiter in order for me to eat as I still didn't have any silverware. The food was good though. My order had two chili peppers next to it, so there should have been some spice to it, but there wasn't. Still it was pretty tasty. The few chicken pieces there were in my dish were too big to be eaten with only a fork or spoon, so cutting the pieces smaller in a bowl of soup was a challenge. So overall service was poor and the food was okay. read more

Lime Leaf - Chicken curry - Thai Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Full disclosure: I didn't eat in the restaurant. I had Hub City deliver. I didn't want a full meal tonight. I wanted spring rolls and dumplings, so that's what I ordered (appetizer menu). I often like finger food for dinner, and I love Thai/Asian food. I'll go in order of consumption. First: The two-piece fresh rolls. They looked, and tasted very fresh. The carrots and the cucumber were great; the shrimp was cooked very well. I detected no seasoning in the rolls. One of my rolls wasn't assembled correctly; it was open, and difficult to eat. It wasn't possible to "re-stretch" the wrapper. So that was disappointing. More care, less haste. Make it, and send it, right, or don't bother. The plum sauce that went with them was delicious. That's where the seasoning was, and I'd eat that stuff again with pleasure. Second: The three crisp Thai spring rolls. They were still crispy, even after briefly traveling in a styrofoam container. Very tasty; I have no complaints about them at all. Then there was the sauce. The menu described it as "sweet orange sauce." It wasn't sweet. It tasted like vinegar with a hint of orange, and it was super runny (like water). Not a fan. I'd rather have had another helping of the plum sauce. Third: Several fried dumplings. Six? Maybe seven? So the menu described them as chicken and vegetables served with brown garlic lime sauce. The dumplings weren't crisp but, again, they had to travel. I think I'd have browned them a bit longer. The filling of the dumplings tasted like ground meat. If there were vegetables in there, I couldn't detect them. And at first bite, they seemed to be somewhat flavorless. But after chewing and swallowing, the seasonings were on the palate and back of the tongue. Subtle, and tasty. The brown garlic lime sauce tasted more to me like some kind of balsamic mixture. It was ... okay. I liked it more than the "sweet orange sauce," but I wouldn't rave about it or ask for seconds. The last two "sauces" were too liquidy. The first one was a perfect consistency. The second two, not so much. Would I order from Lime Leaf again? Yes. This order wasn't ideally constructed, but it was largely tasty and mostly met my expectations, so the restaurant deserves another try. read more

First off I love the food here. Usually a great place. I came in tonight though and the waiter refused to seat me and my friend for service because it was "too late". We walked in the door at 8:40pm, the restaurant closes at 9:30, there were two tables occupied In the whole place. Not sure if the waiter just didn't feel like doing his job or if he was just plan lazy, pretty sad regardless for a place that is usually on point. My recommendation is for y'all to get someone who actually wants to work or change your posted hours from 9:30pm to 9pm because apparently your dining room closes at 8:40pm when this guy is on shift. read more

Ok. I hate giving it 3 stars because the service was great and it is in a really cool location. I think my biggest issue with this place was the flavors. The Tom Yum was missing that zing you get from the tree roots and that hot and sour flavor. The profile was just not there. It was hot but the flavor was not authentic. Same for my beef salad. It was hot, but it just did not have the authentic flavor I was looking for. I really wanted to love the place because it is such a cool place. However, Bangkok Thai beats this place hands down for authentic Thai flavors. It has that zing, that lemon, that ginger, that spice all worked together. I might try the place again and see if I have a better experience. read more

WISH yelp gave the option to leave 0 stars. worst service i have EVER had. service is usually slow, but this was a new low. our waitress had a personality less stellar than a doorknob, and was extremely slow. food from another table was brought out to us after 20 minutes, which of course we sent back. after waiting another 10 minutes, we proceeded to look over and see our waitress standing in the middle of the floor talking to another waitress and pointing at us with a disgusted look on her face as if we had done something wrong. oh! and we should've taken it as a sign when we walked in the door, waited 5 minutes for anyone to even look at us, and had a couple walk past us to leave who said "good luck, we'll never be back". read more
