We were in Mayport recently so we finally tried Simply Tasty Thai, which is a place we've heard a lot of good things about. They're located at 2292 Mayport Road. We ordered a couple of appetizers to start. I had the Satay and she had the steamed Gyoza. My Satay was very good and I liked that there were big pieces of peanut in the dipping sauce. She liked her Gyoza a lot and really liked that it wasn't slippery like it can be when it's steamed. I had Beef Pad Thai for my entree and I went with spice level 1. I liked that their version isn't overly sweet like it can be elsewhere. I don't really mind when it's sweet but I also like knowing that there's somewhere I can go when I don't want that. I was also pleasantly surprised by the fact that spice level 1 was very easy for me to get through. My wife ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice. 90% of why she ordered it was because it's served in a pineapple! She went with spice level 1 as well and said she could easily go to 2 or maybe even 3 in the future. The rice itself was good and she loved the chunks of pineapple all through it. We both had plenty to take with us which will make for a great lunch tomorrow. I'm glad we finally tried this place we've heard so many good things about. We will be back!

Years later, this is still one of my favorite Thai spots at the beach! Located in a strip mall off of Mayport Road there is tons of parking. On a Saturday night around 7 PM we were immediately sat and provided great service. Place was about half full, had a quiet vibe, however, good for large groups as a group of 15 people came in when we were leaving. I was highly impressed with both the curries we got for our table. The Green curry might have stolen the show. I loved the tofu in the other curry and would probably choose that again next time. Highly recommend for authentic Thai food. read more

A surprise when you walk through the door. Nicely appointed seating and a comfortable ambiance. The food is good unfortunately they don't have sticky rice. The service is friendly and prompt. It's really nice that they use fresh chilies and not ground chili powder . The pricing is good for the food you get. All in all this is very close but not quite if you're used to Thai food from Thailand. read more

Came in for lunch - got the Thai basil fried rice special. Was a bit bummed by the portion size - I wonder if I had paid full price (which was only like 50 cents more) if I would have gotten more. Either way, it was very good (which is why I'd hoped for more!) - lots of fresh flavors. It did lack something (even at Thai hot level spice). I could taste the spice, but just something was....missing. But one of the best Thai meals I've had since moving down from the Midwest. Will definitely be back to try other options. read more

Not enough great things to be said about Chef Nancy and her delicious food! Authentic, yet personalized!! Being a cancer patient, I'm very sensitive to heat, but I still enjoy FLAVOR! Chef Nancy came to the table and made suggestions and was Right on the Money and cooked the BEST Thai dish I've ever eaten! It was a very mild drunken noodle dish, but also make sure to get their crab Rangoon's and lumpia. Hubby loved the soup!!! Go and fall in Love with Great Thai!! Yummy!!!! Super pretty little place! read more

Late lunch at STT and got a 5-piece Crab Rangoon and Chicken Tom Kah for appetizer, they were alright, it was a different look and taste for us than other authentic Thai joints. Ordered the Phad Thai Seafood and it was a bit spicy as we only ordered medium spicy. We will just have to take it to-go and finish it at home. Service was awesome from Diane our kind and hospitable server during our visit. There is plenty of parking outside and the ambiance is relaxing. Very chill and mellow along with Chef Nancy's Buddhist inspired artwork. #supportlocal904 read more

Simply Tasty Thai is hands-down our favorite Thai/Filipino restaurant in Mayport. My husband and I have been coming here over the last 5 years and it's always been a "Thai-rrific" experience. While it is located a bit further for us from St. Johns, the culinary journey is well worth it! ヽ(*‿*)ノFrom the moment you walk in, the friendly staff (Chef Nancy, Cynthia, Diane, Josh and Tang) all make you feel welcome like old friends on the classic sitcom Cheers catching up. Chef Nancy is the sweetest lady and an incredibly talented cook! She has curated the tastiest menu while also making you feel like you are eating in her kitchen. *:｡ﾟ Every dish we've tried has been consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether it's the perfectly spiced curries, the savory Pad Se-Ew, Pad Thai, Thai Crispy Garlic Jumbo Shrimp, comforting Beef Noodle Soup, Pork BBQ sticks, Chicken Fried Garlic, Filipino Pancit Delight or their amazing Golden Money Bags (similar to Lumpia, my favorite), Filipino Lumpia or Crab Rangoon with curry appetizers, the quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail always shines through! *:｡ﾟ The lunch/dinner entrees all have great portions (we leave with 3-4 boxes of leftovers and look forward to each the next day. LOL). The atmosphere is warm, inviting and immaculately clean with beautiful decor all completely in line with the theme, making it perfect for a casual meal or a special night out. The staff are all incredibly attentive, personable, and knowledgeable about the menu. They definitely take the time to recommend dishes based on preferences with options from mild-level 1 to spicy-level 5 and ensured that our dining experience was seamless and enjoyable at every visit! ƪ(･‿･) If you're looking for authentic and delicious Thai/Filipino dishes especially if you are in the Mayport area, Simply Tasty Thai is the place to go! The menu has something for everyone and offers a wide variety that is full of flavor and a mix of spices! #Supportlocal @ Simply Tasty Thai-Mayport Rd.

Hip hip hooray! I found a great Thai place just eleven minutes from my house. I had the vegetarian appetizer platter and the Drunken Noodle with fried tofu, served in a delicious and delicate sauce with smoky noodles and fresh veggies. The tofu was fried to perfection. The service is fast and super friendly. The atmosphere is casual, clean, and beautifully lit with pleasant jazz in the background. I will definitely be back! read more

How have I not eaten here before! I haven't left the restaurant yet and I had to write a review. The restaurant itself is medium sized with about 18 tables of 4-6. We were quickly seated and our waiter was fast with getting our drinks and appetizers. The food came out quickly and hot. We ordered Thai sampler 1, pad Thai and pancit. Everything was seasoned perfectly, cooked perfectly and delicious. Everything on the menu is affordable and the portions are large. I will 100% be back. read more

This place is understated for sure. I drove 40 minutes to meet a few friends here, who had been here before. It's in a strip mall so it's nothing glamorous on the outside. I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The owner is also an artist and painted many of the wall hangings. Very nicely done! The food on the other hand, the food was absolutely phenomenal and worth the drive. I've been to Thai places that I cannot have their curry because they add cow milk into their "premade" sauce. This place said all of their curries were done with coconut milk, which I believe is the traditional way :). I had the pumpkin curry, pineapple curry, and Massaman curry. All of them tasted great, but the Massaman was my favorite at the restaurant and as leftovers. I would without a doubt drive back up to eat here again. Yum!! read more

Stopped in for some appetizers before a show I'm the same strip mall. Very busy but we got a booth. Service was OK but our server forgot a few items and so we had intermittent wait times. It also was pretty loud with a couple of large groups so hard to converse. But our apps were good and dishes others had looked great. You can match the pics with the apps page of the menu read more

This is by far the best Thai food I've had in Jacksonville! I had been wanting to try it for a while and finally made it out there last month since it's in Mayport. The flavors were all very authentic. Our server was great and had good suggestions for us. It's a cute restaurant, we went for an early dinner around 5:30 and it was still rather crowded which speaks to their taste because truly the best Thai food I've had in Jax. We got the appetizer platter which was a great way to try the many different unique and classic Thai appetizers. The mango sticky rice was my favorite! read more

This restaurant is awesome, as I have been here a few times before. I decided go here again last month one day for lunch. There is always plenty of parking here everyday. I decided to just with appetizers this visit. I decided to order roti bread with peanut. Two of my favorites appetizers. The other appetizers I had were eggs rolls and cream cheese wontons with sauce on the side. Their Thai iced tea is amazing as I love Thai iced tea. The service here is always excellent. I really love the ambiance inside this restaurant, as the have Avery cute doll house right as you walk into this restaurant on display. If you're in the beaches area and looking to try Thai food, then I would highly recommend this restaurant. I think you're going to love it. read more

The food here is great and authentic! The presentation of the dishes is done with care and detail. The decor is welcoming, traditional, and lots of paintings by the chef adorn the walls, too! I had a lunch special of the green curry and it was just the best portion and flavor. I had it with the Tofu and was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside! Well done with the full flavor, spice, and I look forward to my next visit to try more of the curries! read more

Checked this place out since it's the closest Asian spot near Mayport, and wow, it didn't disappoint! The food was exquisite, and the service was top-notch.

Simply Tasty Thai is (pun intended) simply tasty. If I live closer to Simply Tasty Thai, I likely would be there on a weekly basis. We've only been there a few times but everything we tried had been excellent. We have tried our go-to Thai dish of Yellow Curry with Chicken and really loved the flavor. The Crispy Duck was indeed crispy and delicious. We've also tried several dishes from appetizers, to fried rice to noodles stir fry dishes. Honestly we loved all of it. Our friend introduced us to the Black Bean Sauce under "Nancy's Special". After first bite, I commented to her that it feels like comfort food to me. My mom makes a stir fry of shredded pork and pickled veggie which our entire family loves. We would mix with steamed rice for a very simple but hearty & satisfying meal. This dish, though with different flavor profile, really reminded me of it. As much as I love trying new dishes, I think this one will alway be on my order list when I visit Simply Tasty Thai. read more

Fantastic, authentic Thai food and at a good price point. I've been there three times; each time the servers were great. It's obvious the restaurant maintains an inventory of fresh herbs and vegetables provided the taste of each of the dishes. read more

The interior is really nice and pretty! I ordered take out and it was ready for me when they said it would be. I got the crab Rangoon, they were delicious! I'll definitely get them again. I also got the chicken pad Thai. It is really delicious and flavorful. I wish I came with another lime and a bit more peanuts. Also, I ordered a medium and it was pretty spicy. I do like spicy and can handle a bit but this was way spicier than I was anticipating! Something I'll consider for next time haha. Thank you!! read more

They have thai, Filipino, Chinese, etc food! This is seriously the best restaurant I've been to in Jacksonville and you wouldn't think so because of the modest appearance on the outside but soon as you step inside, it's a really nice. Very clean place. I definitely will be coming back here. read more

Pad Thai was fantastic! Suggest the hot spice.Medium wasn't enough. Staff was great! Will go again.

If I could give 1000000 stars I would! What a gem of a place and to think that I've driven past it so many times because it looks so unassuming. Don't let the outside fool you, from the moment you step it it's cozy and quaint. We were greeted immediately, every one was very attentive and genuinely kind. We asked for recommendations and ordered what Josh recommended, (Massaman Curry with beef) + Pad Thai and Golden Money Bags. The presentation was perfect and the tasty out of this world. I've had many Pad Thais and curries all over the world and these were by far one of the best. The beef in the massaman curry was so tender, the sauce so flavorful. Pad Thai had the perfect consistency and was super aromatic. Portion size was ideal. We also appreciated that everything on the menu had a picture, sometimes it helps having a visual when you order so this was extra great. Had the pleasure to meet Nancy who is so kind and charming. We will definitely be back many times, easily a new fav place. Overall if you're looking for a date night, it's very cozy and feels private. I can also see this as a nice intimate place for groups. Noise level was great, easy for conversation. Also enjoyed all the art on the walls which Nancy drew! Super place! read more

Not much to see from the outside. Typical non-assuming strip mall look. Inside was a different matter. Nicely decorated and very clean. The service was a bit rough. I think the waitress was calling it in and it showed by her inattentiveness. The main feature was the food. I had the red Thai curry with shrimp. I ordered it medium heat and it was perfect. The balance of sweet and hot was spot on. I highly recommend this especially if you love Thai. read more

Big portions of delicious Pad Thai. The massaman curry and crab Rangoon are great too.

Been a long time customer who genuinely believe this is the best Thai food in town. Wife and I went out for a good date night which we don't often get, and we wanted Thai. Walk in and the place is packed. We waited for about 30 minutes because we know the wait is worth it. A couple came in after us and got sat before we did. They waited maybe 10 minutes. Instead of waiting we decided to leave because it ruined our dinner plans. We have kids at home and can't be gone too terribly long. I can't say I'll return because the staff didn't seem to care. read more

So, so good. I ate here with some co-workers during a busy lunch hour. The service was great, attentive and friendly. There are several options for lunch including specials. I chose the green chicken curry with a spice level of 2 (Note: Spice ratings 1-5. 1=no spice; 2=a little; 3=medium; 4=American hot and 5=Thai hot). My meal was really good. I highly recommend Simply Thai! read more

Delicious. It's been a while since I've eaten here and my recent visit just reminded me how much I miss the foods at Simply Tasty Thai. I used to frequent this place a lot years back. Thankfully I live quite a distance away from this place or I'd be Simply Broke because I'd be eating almost every day or every week. And it looks like they have renovated the place. Interior looks great, and modern. And nothing has changed, service has been great; food has been spectacular If you haven't eaten here I highly suggest you do so. They have multiple selections of Vietnamese and Filipino food. If you like Curry based foods, they have a curry sampler called 3 Curry Kingdom, which is a great option to try 3 curries. Now it's just a matter of choosing what to order from the menu. Good luck!!! read more
