Food authentic and perfect portions. Ordered the Fresh Spring Rolls and they were freshly wrapped. Followed the rolls with Tom Yum Soup with chicken and it was again perfect- served hot and spiced just right Entree was Shrimp Pad Thai right sized portion, perfectly cooked rice noodles and plentifully covered with shrimp(shell tails removed- the only way) and spot on enveloped in the sauce. Service was slow at the door for recognition of a Guest wanting seating. Once seated the food came out as ordered, however wasn't half way done with the Tom Yum soup and bam Pad Thai gets delivered. All in all food was delicious and FRESH. Ambiance - music was good, they could use some new paint on the walls and doors. Be careful walking from the sidewalk as there's many nicks loose, same with the steps going up to the. Fro t door. read more

First of all, the food is delicious. That being said, the building itself is filthy. The floor, the doors, the stairs, the toilets, EVERYTHING is absolutely filthy. This might be the last time eating here because I can't imaging a clean kitchen when everything else is so dirty. I don't believe it has anything to do with the building being old, it's just never cleaned. Truly disgusting. I'm surprised it passed sanitation inspection read more

Some of my close friends said they visit Rama Thai weekly, so I knew I had to try for myself! When you're walking up to the front door, you feel like you're home... quite literally because this was a unique neighborhood home transformed into a restaurant! When you enter, there's a counter where we were kindly greeted by an employee. They were pretty crowded, so we ended up having to wait a little bit for a table of 4. There's upstairs, main level, and outdoor patio seating. We sat on the main floor. Our server was friendly and hardworking. Quite an expansive menu with a little something for everyone. I had Basil Fried Rice with chicken and no egg. Our table also ordered Pad See Ew, Rama Thai Fried Rice, and Masaman Curry. Spice levels were easy to customize for all our meals. Such a great spot, and I can't wait to go back next time I'm in town! read more

I am a Thai snob sorry folks ! Someone recommended this to me as I am not from the area and they said it was the best Thai foods If you are looking for reasonable 12.95 for curry and rice come here . Nice staff - neat restaurant inside Could be cleaner - dead plants on the balcony and pepper plant dying or hibernation in the lobby. Food is okay- I had to salt - I have never had to salt a curry before . Chicken is rubbery. Would I try again! Sure I always give second chances. It seemed to be a busy and popular place . Go for it ! Not the best curry but it will do. read more

I don't get to this place too often - but when I do, it's always a winner of a place. The place is so consistent, from visit to visit. And today, the place was busy as all get out - we sat upstairs - and the upstairs was virtually full (along with the downstairs). Yet, service and speed of entrees coming to the table, was excellent. Pad See Ew: This noodle dish is the right flavor profile for this traditional dish. Sauce is quite flavorful tasty. The beef was plentiful. Vegetables were all throughout. And all was nicely cooked and good tenderness....yet (not) mushiness to the ingredients. Yellow Curry: I tried this dish (which) the other guest ordered. The dish was well balanced in flavor. The coconut milk can get strong...or be what you (only) taste at other places. This place had a nice balance to it all. Vegetables in this dish were cooked very good. Located by MSU school and the historic Walnut St historic district - this restaurant is in a older home. Makes for a good setting...to enjoy lunch or dinner. read more

Tried this place three times over the years, which officially qualifies me for sainthood--or at least a refund. Sadly, after our latest visit, we've decided this will be our final farewell. The place has so much potential... if only someone would kindly rescue it from the clutches of rotting wood, peeling paint, and plants that have clearly seen better centuries. The food was the real dealbreaker--bland and underwhelming, like it gave up before it even got to the plate. Service was fine: not exactly warm and fuzzy, but not outright dismissive either. Just sort of... there. Overall, if you're into post-apocalyptic ambiance and culinary beige, this one's for you. We're out. read more

Rama Thai is one of my top favorites in Missouri. The restaurant/house does need some work or it won't be too long before they will have to relocate. Their customer service is always great. They are always very nice and make sure the customers are happy. I've ordered on-line and over the phone, it is very easy and I've always received everything I've ordered. The food is delicious, there hasn't been anything that I hadn't been satisfied with. If you like Thai food this is the spot, I always recommend them. I hope they are always in business or I will seriously cry. read more

Arrived around 7:30pm on a Saturday night. No wait. Someone was at the register but didn't greet us - so we stood there awkwardly for a couple minutes until someone greeted us and took us to a table. Service was fast. We ordered a few appetizers and everything was really good. My daughter ordered the garlic & pepper chicken and really liked it. My son got the broccoli beef and it didn't have much flavor so a disappointment there. I ordered the Gapraw chicken and didn't like it as much as at other restaurants where I've had it. The chicken was a little grisly. My husband ordered the Rama Thai chicken and was happy with his dish. We'll try it again...and just choose other dishes. Love the homey feeling of the restaurant. read more

Rama Thai is located in a super cute house with parking on the street and behind. I phoned in an order for pad see ew and Thai tea because Everyday Thai was closed on mondays. I will admit, I am a noodle snob. My favorite thing about pad see ew is seeing that dark noodle sauce and the pan fry marks on the noodles. Unfortunately this dish was lacking both, and honestly was pretty flavorless. It felt like it was thrown together pretty rapidly and the noodles were chewy, dry, and flavorless and the broccoli was traditional broccoli instead of being broccolini or Chinese broccoli. The tofu was fried well and they included a lot of it- I ended up eating the tofu and tossing the rest. The Thai tea was delicious at least and I appreciated the caffeine boost! Sad to say my experience here was not what I was hoping for. read more

Rama Thai - Pad See Ew Noodle - Thai Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

So good. Lunch specials are a great bang for your buck and the crab rangoons are amazing and crispy. Pad Thai and mango curry are my favorites but the green curry is a close rival. Never ate anything bad here and service is always friendly. They have had some staffing shortages like the rest of the world so be kind and keep that in mind. Not a ton of parking or seating so allot a little extra time. read more

Rama Thai - Green curry lunch special comes with rice and 2 rangoons (so yummy). Green curry is creamy & has an earthy/green pepper flavor. Delicious. - Thai Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

This restaurant is located in the middle of a neighborhood in a home converted to a restaurant. Peeling paint and rotting wood outside & on the covered patio/porch out back give it a rundown rather than rustic feel. The food is fine, but strangely a little bland for a Thai restaurant. It's a popular place in Springfield, but I'm not sure it would make it in the St. Louis area with such amazing competition. read more

The Thai green tea was delicious. Strong green tea flavor with the right amount of milk. I had the 'shrimp rolls' as an appetizer which is essentially a piece of shrimp, wrapped in spring roll paper and fried, served with a sweet/sour/salty dipping sauce. Nothing special... My entree was Masaman Chicken Curry. It could have used more salt and more curry. The flavor overall could have been more pronounced. Also, there was not much chicken in the dish. The hostess and server were both very polite and hospitable. The restaurant is located on the lower floor of a two story 'older' house that could use a bit of tlc outside as well as inside. I may try them again, but will order something else. read more

I went with a group for lunch. I was a newbie and really didn't know what to choose on the menu. Tried Kai Tod Rama. I enjoyed the meal and looked forward to going back. Went back today with a neighbor. I feel bad for the beautiful old house that once was. Now it's in terrible shape, needs many repairs, and a new coat of paint. The outside appearance doesn't make you want to come in and enjoy a meal. Service was good. Food was blah. read more

Rama Thai had good food and service. We ordered some more entrées to include the panang curry, sesame chicken, pad thai, cashew chicken, and pad see ew noodles, along with several appetizers. The appetizers had good flavor, but the tiger cry beef was a tough. As far as the entrees all the dishes were good, except the pad thai was average. It did not have the sweet and savory balance I enjoy in pad thai. Overall, this is a good Thai Food restaurant, I would visit again. read more

Overall, pretty good Americanized Thai food in convenient location. This place will satisfy the desire to enjoy a good curry or some fairly noodles, but don't expect to be flooded with the fresh explosion of flavors that you would get from authentic Thai or that one finds in Thailand. The portions are very generous and flavorful, but the Pad Thai noodles were seriously over cooked. Likewise the Masaman Curry was flavorful, but the chicken was over cooked and quite rubbery. Conversely, the Spring Rolls were fresh and very well rolled. read more

I have always enjoyed coming to this restaurant as the food has been always delicious. That hasn't changed, but the restaurant seems to be cutting back and charging more. Took a few family members with me today. Waiter was very nice. I order Tom Kha Gai (Coconut Chicken Soup) and when I got it, there was no chicken in it). When I asked about the chicken they offered to get me some. When I got the bill they charged me $2 for it. My husband got Drunken Noodles with very little veggies. The Crab Rangoons had very little filling. The inside of the restaurant is kept up for the most part, but the outside needs a lot of work. I know times are difficult, but theses issues are hard for me to say if come back. read more

My friend and I found this place for dinner on yelp - we were looking for an Asian dinner location. Luckily, this was less than 10 minutes away from our Airbnb and was able to find a parking spot nearby. It was nice to see a lot of the houses have been converted into businesses along both sides of the street. We ordered the crispy vegetable egg rolls and the golden bags. OMG - the curry-season mashed potatoes were amazing!! we asked for plum sauce and peanut sauce and their peanut sauce was an excellent addition. My friend ordered the Khao Soi (Curry noodles) with crispy tofu to compare with the Kaho Soi in Norman, OK. She loved this version and was a little spicier (Level 2 spice) than she expected but was super flavorful. She paid for a side of white rice to absorb the additional curry broth as her Norman restaurant includes the complimentary side of rice and wanted to really compare the 2 versions. I ordered the Pineapple Fried rice without shrimp (0 spice level) and the curry seasoning was spot on! Now that I found this place, I will defiantly be adding this to my go-to place every time I visit Springfield read more

Located in a beautiful old historic home this is our second visit to Rama Thai. The first time was for lunch, this time dinner. Our evening meal was just as delicious as our lunch from the other day. We added egg rolls to our crab Rangoon appetizers and they didn't disappoint. Both were hot, fresh and tasty. This family owned and operated cafe has won several awards for their food and service. We can see why. The staff is friendly with kind smiles and polite attitudes. I asked for a suggestion for my main course and the young lady suggested the Two Best Friends with Fresh scallops and shrimp stir-fried with sweet chili paste, baby corn, bell peppers, pineapples, scallions, broccoli, and cashews. It was an excellent suggestion if you like seafood and I do. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I was a bit sad whenever I ran out of broth to soak the rice in and even sadder when the meal was finished. It was a great meal in an intimate setting for my girlfriend and I. She by the way loved the cashew beef that I had for lunch previously, so she ordered it for herself this time. My only disappointment was they didn't have any duck for the crispy duck but after talking to the waitress I understand why. Just not enough demand. Anyway I'm sure it would have been fantastic. One last comment, the home made palm sauce is spot on. My girlfriend and I fight for the last drop. lol read more

Seriously hate that I'm giving this place a 3 star rating. Let me tell you, there's nothing worse than seeing amazing reviews and getting excited to try some place new, and not holding up to those standards. And go ahead and look at my profile and see all of the 5 stars I love giving out. I rarely ever rate lower than 4 stars unless it truly was not good. We came during lunch time and it was busy of course. The restaurant is in a house like building, super cute area. We got sat at a table inside and were immediately taken drink orders. The server originally gave us just the lunch menus and so I asked if I could get a dinner menu (wanting to order dinner sized plates). We ordered Thai tea, fresh spring rolls, crispy egg rolls, pad kee mow, Tom yum soup, and a kids meal chicken fried rice with a drink (that was never given to us). This is the order each of our plates came in. First, spring rolls. Second, pad kee mow. Third, tom yum soup and kids meal chicken fried rice which was more like an adult lunch size plate (totally fine). Then I had to ask about my Thai tea and egg rolls. After we were halfway done with our entrees, I got my Thai tea. Then as more so dessert, we finally got our egg rolls. In the middle of the chaotic, ass backwards serving of foods, we asked for a spice tray. He brought us a spice tray that was completely empty. And on top of all of this, we were given all lunch sizes when I specially asked for the dinner menu. He should have clarified or let me know that they only served lunch sizes at the moment. It doesn't matter anyway because the food was not good. ___________________________ Now let's talk about the taste: I get so confused when I see people say things taste "authentic". And I've just come to realize that I can't trust Yelp reviews among this area in Missouri. The spring rolls were just lettuce with clear noodles and the clear rice wrap. Pad kee mow (with chicken) which I ordered in a spice 3 out 4 was more like a 1. It had a weird distinctive fish taste. There were barely any veggies in it. Chicken fried rice with huge chunks of chicken was just not very kid friendly in my opinion and tasted like nothing. Tom yum soup tasted like tomato soup. We ordered a level 2 out of 4 in spice. But this was honestly the best part of the whole meal if anything. Crispy egg rolls came out last and was just fried piece of nothing inside. Thai tea was good. You really can't mess up Thai tea or you just should not even open a Thai restaurant. ___________________________ Like I said at the beginning of this very long Yelp review. I hate that I am giving this place a 3. But I drove an hour and a half to go to this restaurant and they did not deliver. I was pretty upset at how below mediocre the food is here and how high the ratings are. I'm Korean and I have tried so many amazing Thai foods all over the US. And this was NOT it. I'll be trying another Thai establishment in the area when I'm back in town. read more

Stopped in here for some Pho and we are so glad we did. The Vintage House Restaurant is amazing and comfortable with two levels of dining options but make sure they don't try and sit you next to the second floor bathroom. It's a cute view of the stairs but still there's a bathroom, we asked to be moved and the staff was very accommodating. Then the food started and let me tell you it's all full of fantastic flavors and is so yummy. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely stop in. read more

I've been to Springfield twice and both times included super satisfying stops at Rama Thai! The first time I went with my friend who highly recommended it and I got the Mango Curry. Being new to Rama, I ordered it spice level three (of four) which was nice and spicy, but I still added some extra spice from the spice tray. The second time I went with my partner and I got the Pumpkin Curry at a spice level four and it was absolutely fantastic. Where the Mango Curry was sweet and refreshing from the tropical fruit, the Pumpkin Curry was especially savory and comforting. Both times I also got the Golden Bags which are fantastic little spiced potato-filled purses. They get fried to perfection and come with a yummy little dipping sauce. During my visits we also had spring rolls that were solid and fresh, as well as crispy tofu which was good if you're in the mood for it. The Rama Thai entree my partner got was slathered in a rich peanut sauce--almost too thick and rich that it took over everything? He said he'd try something else next time. 13/10 would absolutely recommend to a friend (and Yelp!). The restaurant is located in what was formerly a house which adds to the unique experience. read more

I ordered delivery and spoke with the staff before ordering from GrubHub to verify I could receive GF food. The food is very flavorful and fresh. The 4 stars instead of 5 are due to the curry being so spicy hot they should offer a number for how spicy you like it. For me I could not eat it. And second reason I received my order with no napkins or utensils and my delivery address was a hotel. Next time I'm in town I would try it again but be more specific about my needs if this is usual.

It breaks my heart to write this review; however, I must. I work for an airline and I'm always in Springfield for business. I have been a patron of this restaurant for years. I literally go to Rama Thai evey time I'm in town. Today I walked from my hotel to the restaurant. I placed a to go order. After I paid, I asked for an itemized receipt for my job but was told by the man assisting me that he could not give me one. Which seemed strange because I always ask for one, and I've always been given one. I left that alone though. I did not check my food upon delivery because of good faith. Once I unpackaged my food back at my hotel I noticed that I was missing the fried rice I ordered. Additionally, I wasn't given plasticware either. So this means that I now have to walk back to Rama Thai in the near 100 degree heat to get the rest of my order. Upon my arrival I communicated that I was missing the fried rice from my order. I expressed how unpleasant it was for me to have to walk back up to the restaurant in the heat. I was sweating. I did not receive any empathy or demonstration of remorse from the staff at Rama Thai for my experience. Not so much as even being offered a glass of ice water while I waited. Three separate employees from within the restaurant came by looking at my ticket as if I were making a story up. I'm still unsure what that was about? A young man offered me a spring roll as if that was going to make up for this experience. I declined. As I stated earlier, I am very disappointed with the overall experience from today. I have been such a recommending promoter of Rama Thai to my colleagues so much so, that if the owner of the restaurant knew; I'd be on payroll. I have sent a lot of business to Rama Thai; including my business. The way that the staff made me feel today. The way that the staff appeared to could have cared less. The way that the staff were laughing loudly in the kitchen while I stood there waiting on the part of my order like something about the situation was cute. In conclusion, I don't believe that I will be spending anymore of my money at Rama Thai. I definitely will not be recommending this restaurant to people that I know. I am so disappointed with the treatment I received on this day. read more
