    Chicken satay
    Laura B.

    We were going to Flix Brewhouse next door and thought we would eat here first. We always said we need to try this place because we live Thai food. It was midafternoon and only a few other customers. We were waited on promptly. The Thai iced tea was good. The chicken satay with peanut sauce and a small cucumber salad was tasty. I got the pad Thai and asked for mild. Well, on a scale from one to 10 with the lower numbers mild, this was an 8. I think the chef dropped the whole spice pan into my dish. I basically ate the vegetables and left the noodles as they were so spicy hot, and opened up my sinuses. Ugh! My daughter liked the side egg noodles with veggies and chicken with crushed peanuts. I did not want to embarrass my daughter by sending this dish back. I should have. I left 9/10ths on the plate as inedible to my liking.

    53. Pad Thai, takeout style!

    I stopped by for some takeout. First the staff greeted me quite warmly and took my order. As it was being prepared, the decor is simple with art from Thailand. The food came out quickly and the staff thanked me for waiting. The patio is a nice place to sit for a lunch or dinner. Where I arrived at my friends house, the food was piping hot with fresh ingredients. It was well cooked and the spice was perfectly handled. The restaurant is tucked in beside the Flix, so it is truly a bit of a hidden gem. Look for it and you won't be disappointed.

    I try to get here a couple of times a month for lunch. Delicious food and pleasant servers. You can choose your level of spice and the food is always very good. Very nice, quaint, little hole in the wall which I am delighted to have found.

    Found my love of Thai food when we moved to the area 7 yrs ago. This small location is within 15 minutes of our house and right next to Flix. We were directed to seat ourselves and our drinks were brought out quickly. I love me some good thai tea and theirs is pretty good. Not too sweet or too tart. The pineapple curry with chicken is flavorful and just the right amount of spicy. So next time you're in the mood for some Thai and a movie, give them a try. You won't regret it.

    Pad See Eew
    Tom G.

    Thai Boren is a place where my daughters and i enjoy eating. At the suggestion of my youngest daughter, I stepped out of my comfort zone to try something new, Pad See Eew. Ok, the name didn't wow me. But I looked beyond the title and read that this dish included big rice noodles pan friend with egg and broccoli. May i say, it was a hit? Yes, out of the park! The flavoring, mild spice and food quality will have me on the lookout for Pad See Eew on a future Thai Boren visit.

    60. Thai Boat Noodle Soup
    Keely C.

    This is a to go order review. The order was ready quickly and everything was fresh. The food is fantastic, pad Thai is classic, red curry is rich and has plenty of protein and veggies. The crab Rangoon is the best I've had in Abq and the boneless hot wings are great! But don't sleep on the boat noodle soup, which is rich and delicious like an excellent pho.

    We were able to be seated immediately upon arriving on a busy Friday night. A bit after being seated a few other patrons entered the establishment and had their orders taken for their drinks and appetizers. I looked over at the waiters like, "what about us?" Immediately the waitress said. "Oh I'm sorry, has anyone taken your order?" We said no and then were attended to with no further issues the rest of our experience. The food was very good, tasted authentic and flavors were outstanding. Loved the view of the mountains from the west side of town. We will visit again in the future.

    40. Eggplant Curry with fried tofu
    Christine C.

    I was super tired and decided not to cook. So my husband ordered the spicy fried rice with beef and I ordered the eggplant curry with fried tofu. We shared the papaya salad which was our favorite part of the whole meal. Everything was amazing and the portion is enough for another meal. I can't wait to try some of the other dishes.

    My wife and I stopped in on Saturday, January 14, 2023, for dinner. We needed some food before watching a movie at the nearby Flix Brewhouse. This restaurant is dwarfed by the Brewhouse, but lots of customers crowded the inside. This happened to be my second visit here within the past two months. On both visits I ordered the crab Rangoon appetizer for $9. You get six large, golden wontons perfectly fried and stuffed with crab and cream cheese. These practically melt in your mouth and the ratio of crab to cream cheese- spot on. Get this appetizer. I ordered the #67, eggplant thai style, thai hot, with pork and white rice. This dish cost me $14 and it was worth every penny. Eggplant wasn't mushy or too chewy. The chef really makes it hot when you order it thai hot. Loved it. I walked sweating to our nearby movie. They do refill the water when they see your mouth on fire. The service here is great, friendly staff and the chef cranks out dishes pretty quick. I will be visiting here many more times.

    Definitely not a 4 on a scale of 5. Very modest portion for the price, will not be going back, there is much much better close by.

I started with a Thai iced tea, which was absolutely delicious--perfectly sweet and creamy, and very refreshing. For an appetizer we ordered the potstickers, which came out hot and crispy with a tasty dipping sauce that paired really well with them. For my entrée I had the fried rice with tofu, and it was excellent. The rice had great flavor and texture, and the tofu was cooked nicely with a good mix of vegetables. My husband ordered another noodle soup dish that looked amazing as well--it had a flavorful beef broth, noodles, and herbs that smelled incredible. Overall, the food was delicious and the experience was really enjoyable. If you're looking for Thai food in Albuquerque, Thai Spice is definitely worth a visit. Five stars all the way!

The pineapple fried rice was the perfect balance spicy, sweet and savory. The rice had the perfect texture and the perfect balance of flavors, I just don't think anyone could have made it any better. I'm absolutely addicted, I feel the exact same way about the pad Thai as I do the fried rice. It's hard to say which one is my favorite dish here. The pad Thai had a little sweet too but not too much, just enough to really make all the other flavors come home. I have very rarely had a better pad Thai than this anywhere. It is a contender for every some of LA's best Thai food. The drunken noodles / pad see ew. Is good, really good actually. Not quite the same sentiment as the other two but I thought it was great and I would definitely be willing to eat it again. The only criticism I have is I wish their phone customer service wasn't on the weird side. I called and the lady first told me they don't have delivery, I asked her directly and said "not even on Uber Eats or DoorDash? Then she said maybe our website might have an option, so I went on there, it was some unknown third party company I never heard of. I was a little hesitant to put my card on it but I really wanted to try Thai spice so I took the chance, Sure enough the driver arrived on time; food was hot, and I enjoyed my experience. Hopefully their employees learn what they are able to do so the next customer doesn't walk away.

You are asked to tip before you receive service. tipping is supposed to be base on quality of service. You do receive table service once your food is ready. The menu has changed as well. We loved the jerky and sticky rice, now gone! Fish cakes is new but it was too chewy and dry with little flavor. Shrimp cocktail and dumplings were good. This was the only Thai restaurant in town that served good Thai rice noodle soup similar to pho. Sadly it's no longer the case. It was bland! Traditional beef soup included meatballs, now gone. They also charge ridiculous prices for some add-ons such as crushed peanuts $2.00 per order!! Really, for 2 ppl we could have bought a whole jar. Service ended up being good especially since we were the only patrons. I low balled the tip at time of order and ended up giving additional tip in cash. Sadly to say, it's off our list of favorite restaurant in town. Probably will not go back.

Best pad see eww / jungle noodles that I've had in New Mexico by a long shot. Absolutely loved it. The ingredients tasted so fresh , you could tell nothing was from a can or frozen. The sauce at the bottom was just to die for. Pineapple fried rice 10/10. This tied for first place, it's possibly the very best fried rice in New Mexico but it's just so close. What I loved is that they spared no expense on ingredient quality, they even used cashews rather than cheaper nuts like peanuts. Each veggie was cooked perfectly and they actually put tomato which I've never had in fried rice but man it was good! Believe it or not the pad Thai was only 5/10, not too bad; nothing to write home about. I was surprised about that since every other item blew my socks off. What might have been the worst part of the pad Thai was the regular chicken was dry and chalky. Most Thai places have thinner softer chicken they use, luckily for the other meals I had shrimp which was really good and fried chicken which was also really good I'd love to try more of their food,
