Thai Cafe - #62 yummy Thai chicken basil with lots of veggies! - Thai Near Me - Harrisonburg, Virginia

This place is amazing! My family goes here for dinner every time we're in Harrisonburg. The server is very nice and usually gives us whatever we need. The only thing is that it takes a little bit for the food to come out but that's because they make everything from scratch, fresh. Service is only bad when they have a lot of customers but that's because they usually only have one server for everything. They're good is amazing and definitely better than Taste of Thai! read more

I love this place. I've only been here for the pho but they have Thai food which looks delicious. This place has the best pho in Harrisonburg, hands down. The workers here are so nice. It's in a shopping center right next to the mall which also has a variety of other foods as well. Love this place, perfect for a hangover cure. read more

Thai Cafe - Thai Near Me - Harrisonburg, Virginia

We have been coming here for few years now. I love their Pho and order it almost everything we come. My husband orders spring rolls and I always order garden rolls for appetizers. They are so good and fresh. We came to today for Valentine's lunch. I stepped outside of my normal and ordered Pad Radna. This dish was a first for me and it was absolutely amazing. Veggies, chicken and noodle in a brown gravy. After lunch they served us complimentary deserts. We had Mung bean custard cake that was so unusual and delicious. This place is a real gem, with great owners working every section of the restaurant. read more

We ordered & split an order of Pas Thai because we are traveling. It was very good. I add an order of peanut sauce tome part of pad Thai & love it. I also ordered egg rolls. Everything was exceptionally good! read more

The service is quick and the owner is a nice guy. This time we ordered Green Curry and Panang Noodles and both dishes were very tasty. Always delicious for a very reasonable price. One of my favorite places in Harrisonburg! read more

Very mediocre. The Pad Thai was flavorless. Nothing special. I would recommend another Thai in the area.

Thai Café is a good place to go if Taste of Thai is not in your budget for the month. I really enjoy their food and the price is always great. Since this is a smaller place, you get served fast. read more

Gross. It's not Thai, it's not American.... it's something an 8 year old would slap together if they could use ingredients from an Asian market. read more

Soooo...I'm not sure where to start. My wife and I saw this place had good reviews so we decided we'd give it a shot. We won't be back. The best part of the experience was the server. He was very pleasant but other than that, this place was mediocre at very best. I ordered the fried rice and my wife ordered the pad Thai. My fried rice came out orange and the pad Thai came out looking a bit...greasy and orange. The biggest issue though was the flavor. There was NONE. I asked for the rice to be spicy and it was, but there was no additional flavor to what I was eating. I LOVE fried rice but this was a real disappointment. Would not recommend to anyone. I gave two stars because the young man serving us was polite. As an aside...we also ordered Thai chicken wings. No flavor whatsoever even after they were "marinated" in Thai seasonings. We left truly disappointed. read more

COME EAT HERE! Out of all the Thai places in Harrisonburg, this is the BEST. I am a snob. I've been exposed to Asian food in Philly and Annandale and they've ruined all other places for me but I this little gem steals a place in my snobby life. This restaurant is one of the best in the area. The service is great and the food spectacular. You cab actually tell the chiefs knows what they are doing. Eat dish is unique and taste different. Our family ordered shrimp fried rice, chicken drunken noddles, mixed seafood and pad radna. Each dish was brought out exactly as we requested and in a timely manner. They food portions are more than the other Thai restaurant so, be sure to either come on an empty stomach or share. The server made sure everything was perfect and our drinks were refilled promptly. Good food makes a happy snob. I was an extremely happy snob. read more

Three stars based on a comparison between Thai Flavor just down the street. We had the typical Pho, Pad Thai with Chicken, Papaya salad and tea. The Pho flavor was not as robust as Thai Flavor but was still good. The Pad Thai was distinctly different and had a sweeter sauce and was more saucy, which we don't prefer. Almost tasted like a typical Asian sauce poured over the noodles. The Papaya salad was Ok but again Thai Flavor beats it with a few extra veggies and the papaya was crisper. More importantly the service was less than what you get at Thai Flavor. They box your take out including soups which they didn't here. Best choice is Thai Flavor. read more

Good food, quick service, and reasonably priced. My wife is gluten free, and she had many choices on the menu. Best pad Thai in town. They even made her a gluten free cookie after the meal! read more

Ok. Service is really good The food was Thai'ish' If you are used to real Thai food from cities like DC NYC SF or the surrounding areas this place will not be what you expect. It's not 4 Stars like it's rated but the service is very nice. read more

Thai Cafe - Drunken noodles with beef - Thai Near Me - Harrisonburg, Virginia

I agree with the negative reviews. I'm moving to Harrisonburg in a few months. Unfortunately Thai Café is near my new home, but I will not eat there again. The food was bland, unlike most Thai food. I wonder if it was cooked to order because it came very quickly. We had drunken noodles and hot basil with beef. They tasted much the same. I was surprised at the large collection of bottled vinegar and sauces on the table. In desperation for some taste, I tried several of them--a big mistake because they were excruciatingly hot. The spring rolls came with a watery sauce with some chopped peanuts in it. The jasmine tea had no flavor. I now live in the D.C. area, which has excellent Thai restaurants. I plan to eat at them as often as I can before I leave. read more

The food was authentic and delicious. Me, being Thai myself, had an opportunity to communicate with one of the workers/owners in Thai and it was a pleasure! Always an honor to help Thai businesses! I will definitely be back and I fully recommend this restaurant! read more

I used to go here a lot when I lived in Harrisonburg and even since moving to South Carolina, whenever I drive through I make sure to stop here. They have the best vermicelli bowls I've ever had. It's absolutely delicious. Their pho is good too but I pretty much only ever order their chicken vermicelli bowls. Their prices are very fair and the wait staff is super friendly. read more

After trying several pho spots in Harrisonburg, Thai Cafe offers both affordable and authentic Vietnamese noodle soup as well a wide variety of Thai cuisine. The restaurant is clean and has a very hole in the wall feel to itself. The food is delicious and very inexpensive. I would definitely recommend giving it a try! read more

If you're looking for a casual thai dining place in the Harrisonburg area, come here! The portions are large and the service is friendly. I usually go with the chicken pad thai or panang curry. The pad thai they make has a perfect balance of sweet and sour and the panang curry has just the right amount of spice. I never forget my thai tea, always super refreshing and hits the spot. read more

We come for a yearly competition at JMU and this is a definite dinner spot for us. The food is absolutely delicious and so reasonably priced. A favorite is the drunken noodles and chicken satay. The staff is efficient and friendly. read more

My friend and I have had lunch here twice and not been disappointed! The green papaya salad was flavorful, spicy and a good-sized portion. On a 1-10 chili-heat level, I picked "6", which was plenty hot, about my limit. The Hot Basil seafood combo was also very good and richly seasoned, with a generous mix of mussels, squid, etc. It's a family run operation and they've always been friendly. The decor isn't fancy, but the food and prices are what we're interested in most. The few poor reviews are hard to imagine; maybe it depends on what one is used to and what one orders? We found plenty of Thai seasonings, Thai basil, fish sauce, chilies, etc. I cook and grow Thai spices, so recognized many of the ingredients. read more

If you want tasty Thai food in a casual, friendly atmosphere, this is the pace! I've been coming here for years and have never been disappointed! I've had just about everything on the menu!! read more

Atmosphere was open and casual. The server was super nice. Food was BOMB. will definitely be back in the future to try other menu options.

My husband and I have been frequenting Thai Cafe for almost ten years now--since he first introduced it to me when we were just friends! It's probably our favorite place in Harrisonburg and that's saying something with the amount of restaurants in H'burg. Our favorites are all the curries, the shrimp spring rolls, chicken vermicelli (add veggies!), and the soups--everything is amazing. read more

One of my favorite Thai places ever. The man working the evening we went gave wonderful service. I got the Thai Robbie with extra tofu and it was absolutely delicious. The spring rolls were a bit lack luster without many vegetables and wilted iceberg lettuce, but were still tasty. My partner got Pad Steak and LOVED it (and he's picky). The prices were also awesome. I can't wait to go back. read more

I really like this place and they've been consistently good since I moved here 7 years ago. Though the place is called Thai Cafe, their secret is that their Vietnamese food is just as good (This is a great place to stop in for a bowl of Pho). I also feel comfortable here - it looks clean and the ambience is nice and pleasant. One of the most consistently good dining experiences in harrisonburg. read more

Ive been going to this place for over 10 years. It is my go to place for Thai food in Harrisonburg, and might have been my first experience with Thai food. The red curry is my fave. In summer time I go for the vermicelli with Chicken. They have the best spring rolls of any Thai restaurant I have been too. The peanut fish sauce they use is delicious as well (hint: no fish sauce in it). read more

I used to come here at least once a week in college. There are a select few places that serve pho in Harrisonburg, and this is probably the most decent in the area (weird since pho is a Vietnamese food). Besides the pho, I am in love with the shrimp spring rolls here. Every other restaurant I've been to serves their fresh rolls with a dark, thick peanut sauce. Thai cafe serves theirs with a clear, slightly sweet peanut sauce which is so amazing! It is the same sauce they use with their vermicelli which is my other favorite thing off their menu. The meat is always flavored perfectly, the veggies and noodles are fresh and if you squeeze in some lime juice, you can't get better than that! The pad radna is another dish that I used to eat frequently. It doesn't taste like authentic Thai food as the flavors are not as strong. I could see why some people would prefer to go other places for authentic Thai food, but I really like the toned down flavors at this restaurant. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the food is bland, but definitely not your typical Thai flavors. After reading the reviews, I really want to try the curry! read more

You HAVE to try the 10/10 spicy curry. So much flavor! The owner is such a handsome man too. I'd go just to see him if I could.

The Thai Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat in Harrisonburg. It's a hidden gem buried in a shopping center with not much else worth mentioning. It is very tiny, but the food is amazing. My favorites are the chicken vermicelli, pad Thai, and the fresh spring rolls. However, I have never had anything I did not like. read more

I absolutely love going to this place and getting any of the Pad Thai that they have! They make the best in Harrisonburg.

Excellent small, informal Thai restaurant in a shopping mall. The fresh spring rolls (an appetizer, sometimes called summer rolls as these are not fried) were delicious and substantial each with a large shrimp enclosed in the rice paper wrapper. It did not come with a dish of nam pla (lime juice/fish sauce/sugar) so you should ask for it. The peanut sauce (which I asked for) was good. There is also hoisin sauce on the table if that's what you prefer. The beef salad was excellent, as was the mussaman curry. The Thai iced coffee is excellent as well. The service was also prompt and helpful; then I asked the waitress where we could buy wine, as we were leaving. She didn't know, but googled this and then directed us to Pioneer Square in Harrisonburg, which was easy to find. I recommend this restaurant very highly and look forward to going back! read more

The restaurant worried me, since there was no one sitting in it but the owners little kids playing Nintendo DS. I decided to give it a try anyway. The yellow curry was so good, after my faithful Pad Thai selection at all Thai restaurants. This yellow curry had pineapples in it, those were picked out by me after the first taste of chicken with coconut curry sauce. The waitress was very helpful and after dining in I realized that they get most of their business through takeout....that was comforting. read more

If you like Thai food you need to try this place, the service was fast, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was nice! I seriously can't recommend this place enough, my meal was delicious, freshly cooked and my waitress was super nice. Also, if you like sweet coffee I recommend trying the "Thai coffee", it went great with my fish and spring rolls. read more

This place was awesome, the cook came out to make sure everything was the way we wanted. Would go back 100% the next time I have a Thai fix.

I rarely get there to eat, but when I do I am never disappointed. The egg rols and sprong rolls are fantastic!!

The food here was great. I have NEVER had food too spicy for me. I'm a huge chili head, so it was great to finally eat a curry that was knock your pants off spicy, and almost hard to finish; but boy did I. That being said. I've eaten there twice and I've gotten sick TWICE...At first I thought it was a fluke, so I went back again. Turns out both times it was because I got chicken. It's not proven, but I've been told since then that other people have experienced this problem, too. EAT HERE WISELY...my friends have never had a problem with the tofu products, and IF I ever go back, that's what I'll have to get, but i will NEVER eat meat from this place, or any small place like this again. It's just too painful. read more

I happened upon this spot while in Harrisonburg. I ordered the Pho and was not disappointed. Nearby table ordered the curry dish which also smelled amazing!! read more
