    Panang Salmon
    Cianelyn N.

    This is my 4th time having Thai Chili and it never disappoints! When you walk in, it just feels naturally comforting - totally Thai vibes. The service was amazing, friendly and quick. Now let's talk about food! When me and family orders, we usually pick a dish from each category (not everything of course) and do family style. Because this was a couple weeks ago, I remember ordering basil with eggplant choosing beef as my meat and it was so good. The other dish my husband had ordered that I remember loving more than my pick was the panang salmon, absolute perfection. The only thing that was a tid-bit downside when I had asked my husband and mother-in-law what they thought of their food was that one, the soup which I don't recall what it was but it was one of the tom yum soup, it was more on the sweeter side and their Thai drink and coffee was very light, you couldn't really get the depth of taste from it which I agreed on because I tasted it myself. Overall, everything was very delicious. I'll always come back here regardless, it's one of the best Thai restaurants in town!

    Panang u can see how watery it is....not good
    Krystle A.

    Meh mediocre at best. Lacks flavor, super watered down, and even more expensive than other Thai places and oh yea it does NOT include rice with their entrees. We originally wanted moo dang or lotus Thai but everything was closed on Sundays and we were craving Thai so we gave this one a try. Their prices are at least $2-4 dollars more than the other places and they don't include rice. The pad Thai was so bland and tasteless, noodles were not that great. The pad see ew was mediocre not horrible. The panang was a huge disappointment, super super watery and lacked flavor and lacked enough meat. Service was alright, ambiance all right too. We ordered to go. We won't be coming back.

    Plain Rice Small
    Roxanne B.

    Rice is extra, not included in meal. NO fried rice either, very disappointing. Their version of crab Rangoon is called cheese puff, at least you get an even number. didn't really want to make the food spicy, thought that was the point of Thai food to make Thai hot? No orange chicken, they have golden chicken made with sweet &sour sauce, weird. Asked to make Thai hot she looked at me weird.Wasn't hot at all. The rice was bland so added the sauce from the chicken to it. They do charge for tea refill $3 each and everything is ala cart Service was slow even though we were the only table occupied in the whole place.

    Basil fried rice
    Noel H.

    I don, know about everything else; however I was served the most pathetic basil fried rice I have ever had the misfortune to come across. The chicken was super tough and chewy and the almost complete lack of basil (2 small pieces in the whole order) and other important ingredients left me feeling like l had the money stolen out of my wallet. The waitress should have been ashamed to even put that on the table. I asked for some more basil and she brought me a dish of sauce and garlic with a little basil underneath. I almost forgot to touch the subject of flavor or the lack there of , this was basically just spicy rice with a few mediocre ingredients. I have not left a review in years and went out of my way for this one so you know I speak the truth.

    Drunken Noodle with Chicken

    One of the best Thai restaurants in Reno. The food is always fresh and served hot! What the space lacks in modern ambiance, it makes up for with the quality of their food and affordable drinks. The team is always attentive and does their best to take care of you.

    Stopped in for lunch with the fam. They got us in and served us quick. This is a comfortable place and wasn't overly busy. They were very attentive and took good care of us. My wife loves Curry Puffs and was just talking about getting some last week so the timing could not have been better. They were good, with a golden crispy exterior and tasty filling. I then ordered the Salmon Panang Curry. The fishy was flakey and cooked well with a flavorful broth teaming with veg. My son had his favorite, Pad Thai, and my wife got some Green Curry with Chicken. Both of which were also very good. I had a Thai Iced Coffee that was just what I needed on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Overall this was a very positive experience that I was quite pleased about.

    Pad Thai
    Trina P.

    I loved the spice level of my pad Thai with pork. They have a scale of 1 to 5, and I got a 3. I wish I got a 5 for more spice, but I wanted to play it safe. The service was so good and attentive. The food came out within 10 minutes of ordering. I recall seeing that if you pay with cash, the bill is cheaper which is really nice.

    Cashew Chicken Stir Fry
    Breanna S.

    Are you getting the hankering for some good Thai food? Well, Thai Chili has easily become one of our favorites. Located in Midtown, this restaurant has been a staple for quite some time in Reno. We were feeling something different, so I opted for the cashew chicken (without shrimp) and my husband got the Pad Prig Sod with chicken, both were AMAZING! They come with a side of rice, no extra charge. I definitely preferred my cashew chicken dish more, and both dishes could have been more spicy (our preference), but it was delicious. We came in on a Sunday, and it was quite busy (always good!). The service was kind of slow, but nothing too crazy to bug out about. Regardless, the food is good, the restaurant is cozy, and overall it's a good time here. Side note: the pad Thai is indeed, delicious, but wanted to review on something that isn't a typical dish!

    Zuly R.

    Great place of youre craving good Thai food. Freshly used ingredients and seafood. I decided to try their shrimp pad Thai noodles and it's a must. Fast service and great ambiance.

    Tom yum gong soup. Sweet and sour. Amazing!

This is a Thai restaurant, and when we got there they were getting ready to close, but thankfully we were still able to place an order to go. While we waited for our food, we grabbed a drink at the bar. We didn't have to wait too long at all, which was a big plus! We ordered the yellow chicken curry and the chicken Se Ew, and both were SO good! The yellow chicken curry had so much flavor and was absolutely delicious. The Se Ew was also really good and had such a great flavor. I was so happy with everything we got! The people working there were also super sweet and helpful, which made the experience even better. They have seating inside and outside, so it would definitely be a cute place to sit and enjoy your food. I'm already wanting to go back the next time I'm in Reno to try more things on their menu. I would definitely get the yellow chicken curry and Se Ew again because they were that good! If you're in the area, you should definitely go try this place. The food comes out quickly, the staff is amazing, and you won't be disappointed!

This time around was a complete disaster. My wife and I were having Thai Basil Fried rice with varying exceptions. Tofu for my wife. Chicken and no onions for myself. The restaruant on a Sunday evening was pretty empty. Maybe 3 other parties were being served. We waited about 30 minutes for our meal. My wife's meal was ok at best. What I received was not what I ordered. My dish had zero Basil, overcooked Chicken , and no stringbeans . I was thoroughly discussed. I called the waitress over and told her I didn't like my dinner. She said would I like something else. I said angrily no. The waitress said the cook was new and made a mistake. The waitress said she took my meal off the bill. Several minutes later the cook ( not a chef in my book) asked me why I didn't like my dinner. I explained several items missing. He said the waitress put the wrong order in. Apparently both the waitress and the cook threw each other under the bus. It is unfortunate this establishment has gone way downhill. For us we recommend Thai Lotus but they were closed on Sundays.

Not only has the food become more fine dining, but so has the dining room and the restaurant's popularity! It's virtually impossible to eat here without a reservation giving the small dining area and limited tables, and they are regularly well booked in advance, so it is very recommended to give them a call well in advance to make sure you have a table reserved before arriving hoping to be seated. My favorite dishes are the kung pao chicken and their pork fried rice, but they have several other popular dishes, especially their rangoons. The portions are large and entrees don't typically come with rice, so it is best to order dishes family style to be shared. I can't wait to return, I am excited to try their Mongolian beef next!

Our server was very knowledgable on their vegan items so it helped in our decision making. We ordered the Mushroom Salad, a Tofu Pad Kee Mow, and their Tofu Satay. The mushroom salad was a refreshing standout filled with a variety of grilled mushrooms on a bed of greens. Our noodles with tofu and veggies was also great - large portions and plenty of protein. As for the satay, they accidentally brought out chicken satay at first, which our server immediately noticed and rectified the issue. When the tofu satay came out, it ended up being skewers of fried tofu puffs that you'd dip into their peanut sauce. While delicious, I was hoping there would be more creativity in layering or marinating the tofu with the sauce like the chicken satay would have been. As a Californian, I appreciated the lower pricing for their menu items and found it fairly inexpensive given the times. Overall, I really enjoyed our meal here and found it a good spot for Thai in the area.
