Basil Fried Rice was great, tried it with Thai hot. The service was great also. Kid friendly options.

Food is tasty and we love it! It's a great date night place. The service is very good.

I've been looking for my new favorite Thai restaurant and have finally found it. Been there three times over two months, and each meal has been delicious. Tonight we tried the red curry chicken and the Thai spicy basil (pork) and I previously enjoyed the Choo Chee shrimp. Fresh, ample portions, served quickly! read more

First time here with the international supper club. Thanks to Sarah S for organizing. I enjoy Thai cuisine but can't eat very spicy food. There are many options on the menu. There are plenty of apps. I enjoyed the pork dumplings in red curry sauce. The flavor was delicious. I got to try the sausage and summer rolls and both were also great. I want to try the curry puff next time. I ordered chicken yellow curry which had appropriately sized pieces of chicken, large pieces of onions, and cubes of potatoes. There was good flavor though the mild was a bit spicy. The onion pieces were a little large and not cooked for very long. Overall the flavor was such that the curry was a solid dish that I would order again. The next day it tasted even better and didn't seem as spicy. The drunken noodles looked great and other dishes had fresh veggies. I also want to try the pad Thai and some of the desserts. Thanks to the ISC I have another great Thai option. read more

Even though I came with a larger group, the servers did a great job taking orders, filling waters, and attending to our other requests. I was going to order the green curry, but my wife ordered the green curry right before me. The server then asked in a joking manner, why I was getting the same thing, why not try something different. She recommended the drunken noodles, so I decided to give that a shot. At the moment, I was really kicking myself for not ordering the green curry, because it's always so good. My drunken noodles came out, and I dreaded the thought of eating it and then trying my wife's green curry only to realize the green curry was much better. Much to my surprise, this wasn't the case! The drunken noodles were on par with the green curry. Though I ordered mild, the drunken noodles were actually quite spicy. I can easily take mild, but this was definitely a hotter scale for me. Glad I didn't go for the hot. I also ended up trying the sausage appetizer and spring roll appetizer that Mark and Ben so nicely shared with the table. I actually preferred those appetizers to my entree. I had a great time with the ISC group! Thank you Sara for organizing another fun and successful International Supper Club! read more

Manee Thai Restaurant - Drunken noodles - Thai Near Me - Ballwin, Missouri

The restaurant struck out in all categories. The dining room was dark, dimly lit, and lacking proper heat...translation...it was cold inside! The waitress was slow and unfriendly. When she finally came up to take the order...she couldn't even utter the phrase "May I take your order"...she just stood there! The food arrived to the table lukewarm and virtually flavorless! I didn't realize my appetizer was missing until after the entrees were dropped off. I had to get up and ask about the appetizer. She claimed they were still working on it...translation...she forgot to order the appetizer because she didn't write anything down! The appetizer finally arrived when the meal was almost over. In summary, if you like poor service, slow service, lukewarm food, a late appetizer in a dimly lit ice cold restaurant...this could be your place! read more

We ordered Namtok Beef, Green Curry and Red Curry. While eating the Namtok Beef, I bit on a rusty metal screw. I couldn't believe that was in the food. I called the restaurant and they wanted to credit us for the Namtok Beef. We won't even risk eating the other dishes. I do not trust the quality control from the restaurant. It also worries me that the owner didn't seem that concerned to look into what is going on in the kitchen for something like that to happen. read more

One of our favorite Thai restaurants in the area! We've eaten here twice so far-once for take out and once for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant is small, maybe 15 tables. The staff was very sweet. I got the Thai fried rice and my girlfriend got the pad see-u, they were both great! The vegetables and spices tasted very fresh. Lots of good options for vegetarians as well. They have cream cheese rangoons which were great, always exciting to see those as an option as a vegetarian. Definitely recommend this place and we will be back. read more

My husband and I decided to stop by on a Sunday evening. The restaurant was a little on the quiet side even with a couple of tables, including one large party, already dining. We were immediately seated and received excellent service throughout our meal. We started with Som Tum (papaya salad), which was definitely the best part of our meal. The flavors--sweet, acidic, spicy--were just right. I ordered a bowl of Tum Yum soup and upgraded to include shrimp. It was pleasant though I would have preferred a bit more lime flavor. I also ordered pad kee mao with chicken at a level 3 out of 5. It was a very large portion--big enough to share. However, it wasn't the typical flavor profile I'm used to. I didn't see any basil mixed in with the noodles, onion, carrot, and bell pepper. I asked for prik nam pla because I didn't find the level 3 to be all that spicy...should've ordered a 4 or 5. My husband ordered his absolute favorite Thai curry, massaman curry, with beef. We're used to crushed peanuts with the curry, but this version had what I assume was boiled peanuts...different size and texture than I was expecting. We were also disappointed that the beef was thin, tough strips of beef as opposed to fall apart chunks. Overall, our dinner was fine, but if we return I would try some other dishes. read more

The best curry puffs in STL. This is the 3rd Thai restaurant that sells this particular food. It's by far the best I've had outside of NYC.

Nice kind people. Thai fried rice is the best, pad thai pretty good Curry dishes a bit watery read more

The service is great and the staff is sweet as can be. Really enjoyed lunch. Great food and menu options. I hope this place sticks around!

The food is incredible!! Every time we go, we have a great experience and leave feeling full and happy. I highly recommend this place!!

Service is really great and attentive... it's a large restaurant w/ plenty of seating. hubby really liked the curry w/ chicken (large portion as well) the drunken noodle w/ pork was no good (it didn't taste like any other drunken noodle i have had) kids fried rice tasted good and reasonably priced. thai iced tea was a little on the sweet side. read more

We were in for lunch a couple of weeks ago. Though they give a heads up that they are short- handed, it didn't show in the efforts of the staff. Food was out of the kitchen and served hot and absolutely terrific. We shared the peppered catfish, spring rolls and the green curry with pork. All wonderful. We love Manee Thai and hope to be back soon. read more

Food has always been good and when we do eat in service is always attentive and accurate. I would say ambiance is mostly attractive and well thought out. I would recommend this place. read more

Was so excited to try this place after hearing good reviews. I asked for my dish to be mild and my mouth is throbbing from the heat. They only gave one carton of rice for two dishes. Curry is mostly spicy, no other flavor. Will not return. read more

Can't recommend Manee Thai enough! I order take out from here a few times a month and it never disappoints. The food is delicious and I love their lunch special options! Best Thai food around! read more

Awesome Thai. Lots of menu options. You choose the 'spice/heat' level. Lovely owners. Nice ambiance - small inside with around 10-15 tables and some new outdoor seating, as well. read more

I love the Thai food at this restaurant. Definitely my go to place for Thai to meet with friends for lunch or dinner. The service is always excellent. read more

Always a good order out night. Quick and friendly service. Pineapple fried rice with added spice is my favorite.

We ordered this on a delivery service. The Tom Kha soup was very good. The cheese angeles were okay, but in all fairness fried food is always just okay to me, not exceptional. The reason for the 3 stars is because the drunken noodles (my go to favorite thai dish) was so HOT it was unedible. They ask 0-5 what spice rating you want, and we put 2 because we like a little spice. However, this was insanely hot. I can't imagine what a 5 would be like. In addition there were very little veggies, just a couple huge carrott rings that were uncooked. Unfortunate waste of a not so cheap dish. read more

Went in and ordered takeout for lunch. The lunch specials are HUGE, and include soup and a spring roll! Lots of food! The drunken noodles were great, and the red curry was the perfect heat! Will order from them again when down in Ballwin! read more

I've never eaten at Manee Thai, and I have no idea where it is except that it's a little less than 10 miles from my parents' house. However, here's why they get 5-stars from me: My dad (Papa Q) went home early from work today after I told him I might have a super-important-time-sensitive package that got mistakenly sent to their address in St. Louis instead of mine. PPQ found no package addressed to me when he got home. Instead, the doorbell rang around 6PM and he found (according to PPQ's account) "a well-clad staff member" who delivered him a hot five-course-dinner and said to him with a smile, "Happy birthday! Your daughter ordered your birthday dinner from out of town." To be honest, Manee Thai was definitely not my first choice to order from. I went through the list of some of my favorite St. Louis restaurants last night, but unfortunately, they either didn't offer delivery or wouldn't deliver far into the giant suburb where my parents live. I had to change my plan and pick a decent (aka Yelp-approved) restaurant I've never been to before, but to make myself a little nervous, I would stick to a few cuisine choices that I'm more familiar with. And I ended up ordering from Manee Thai because: 1. It was the only Tian/Yelp-approved restaurant that would negotiate with me on delivering outside of their radius for my purpose (although I did get charged about 500% extra on the delivery). 2. My dad has never tried Thai cuisine before. He's also a really stingy asian who doesn't treat himself to decent meals out and has very little knowledge about the other types of ethnic cuisines out there. In his mind, there's "Chinese", "Japanese", "other Asian" cuisines, and the rest he basically just labels "American" (a pseudo-foodie-aka-moi's nightmare). Anyway, it might not be a super $$$$ fancy dinner, but I deem myself knowledgeable enough about Thai food that I was able to carefully pick 5 relatively authentic dishes from Manee Thai's menu (working with Yelp and Manee Thai) so that at least my dad could say he's had legit Thai food now! Regardless of the actual food quality (though I've got some faith in Yelp on this, and also my dad's taste-buds are probably semi-retired anyway), big kudos to Manee Thai for: A. Being human and making the delivery possible B. Being patient (lady on the phone, Meeyeon?) with my 923846 calls customizing the order (including numbering each container and legibly write down the name of each dish so I could explain to my dad "#3 Red Curry Beef goes with #3 Rice"), confirming the order, changing the order, checking in on the delivery, etc. C. Helping me deliver my dad a wonderful birthday surprise read more

Manee Thai Restaurant - Dad's surprise BDay delivery: fresh spring rolls, drunken noodle, red curry with beef, spicy eggplant, and purple rice pudding - Thai Near Me - Ballwin, Missouri

It's st louis good, hence the 4 and 5 star reviews. It pretty much sucks but most people from st louis wouldn't know because the only thing they have to compare it to are the other thai joints that rarely rise above what would be considered mediocre in more cosmopolitan cities. Just look at the photos of gooey pad thai sitting in a puddle of sauce. That's flat out careless cooking because a properly made pad thai shouldn't have an excess of sauce. It's not a good sign when they can't prepare the most popular thai dish correctly. Please learn how to cook and have more respect for your customers, even if they aren't that discriminating. read more

Manee Thai is probably the first place I had ever eaten Thai food many years ago. It had been a while since I had been though. I always choose another Thai restaurant slightly to the west when I'm in this area. My vegan friend ordered an all-vegetable curry and I ordered The Spicy Eggplant (Ground chicken with eggplants, onions, bell peppers, and Thai basil in chili garlic sauce.) The food came out frightening fast and it made me question how much of it was freshly made. I ate about ¾ of my dish. It was tasty and well-cooked but there was a lot of liquid in the bowl. I loved all of the white onion in it and did not like the green pepper which I set to the side. All in all I'd return at someone else's request but I'm probably not choosing it on my own. read more

Good food and good service. What else do you need when you want to go out on a special evening.

It was not as good as I remembered it. Duck was so dry I couldn't eat it. It seems a bit overwhelming with all the Door Dash, etc. plastic bins as you enter. read more

Excellent menu, delivery/take out (June, 2020, #Coronavirus era) options, and outdoor tables and chairs we dragged to the shade for lunchtime. We ordered enough for several meals and we're rewarded! ---Great-tasting Tom kha gai (chicken Cocoanut milk soup), to which I added the extra veggies from our other dishes and jasmine rice, plus chili sauce. ---mixed meats steamed dumplings were disappointing: wrappers were thin and too soft, and they got cold rapidly by being hidden among cold garnishes, all unnecessary. Dipping sauce had too much soy. ---shrimp tempura were large, crisp and wonderful, but we didn't like/use the sauce; came with more cold veggies. ---duck over rice provided only 2 helpings (1 leg, 1 thigh), but good taste. Would go back and try other items. Kind of homey. Liked it, even though in strip mall. --- read more

Very clean, insanely fast service, and the food was phenomenal. The workers are amazing and polite, everytime I come here we are greeted with a smile. read more

The service is great and food is fantastic!!! Manee Thai delivers quality every time! Whenever I need a nutritious, filling meal I call in an order of cashew chicken and it lasts me for multiple meals. Don't forget the fried bananas, they are to die for! read more

This is a cute little mom and pop upscale restaurant. Upon walking in you will see traditional Chinese/ Asian decorations which I am always a fan of! We were seated in about 5 mins. I tried the coconut Thai tea which was a no go for me but my guest loved it! I may be biased as I am not a fan of milk. I order the Pineapple Fried Rice with level 4 spice. I am a fan of places which gives you level of spice always gets extra points from me. It tasted extremely authentic and very delicious! Seasoning was spot on and the spicy was almost as close as to how spicy I liked it. I also tried the Pad Thai noddles which were great!! read more

Great Thai food. It is your traditional Thai decor and intimate location. I have been here twice with my husband and a third time and brought my 6 year old. He really enjoyed it too (that is saying a lot for normal kiddos). My go to is always the Pad Thai, just full of robust flavors and even when I am full I go back for me. My husband changes it up a lot. Spicy Stir fry with Pork is very delicious. He has also had the tempura shrimp that were flavorful as well. There crispy spring rolls and angel wings (crab rangoon) are also good appetizer options. Yah gotta try them!!! read more

I have eaten here many times and the food is always delicious. They also do a good job of keeping the heat just right based on how spicy you order. Highly recommend Manee Thai ! read more
