I've been coming here since I was about 16, and now at 42 I still make a point to stop by anytime I'm in town. It's just as good as I remember. No frills, great vibe, welcoming atmosphere, and consistently great service. The food is always amazing!

Pad See Ewe

Hole in the wall. You know how it goes. Those are usually IT. Ok. The vibe is immaculate. The decor and layout is comfortable and modern. Let me tell you right now I had one of the most flavorful Thai dishes here. I hate that I don't live in San Antonio to eat this on the regular but trust, I will be back. Juicy strips of meat, generous servings, hot and so fresh, perfect. 10/10 5 stars. A MUST MUST TRY. WOAH

For over a decade this has been my favorite Thai restaurant in San Antonio. It's always robust, flavorful, and spiced perfectly. The curry bowls are my favorite. Green Curry Noodle has been my go to from the beginning. Their appetizers are amazing, soups are unbeatable, and sauces next level. I can't express enough how lucky we are to have Thai Dee in this city. The prices are affordable for the portion size, the service is always amazing, and the food always delivers. They are BYOB so you can bring your own beer or wine in at no additional fee. Don't skip out on this hidden gem.

Pork pad see ew. Superb.

TLDR: A hidden gem of a place that's apparently a quarter-century long staple for Thai food in San Antonio. Thai Dee is a nifty little spot with very attentive service and a unique atmosphere. It's nice when a restaurant is consistent, and this one's been so good that one of my dining companions has been coming here on and off for 20+ years! The three dishes tried were the pad woon sen, the pad kee mao, and the pad see eew. The woon sen is a little on the dry side, understandable as it's got mung bean noodles in it. The flat rice noodles in the other two dishes were excellent, and the kee mao had a zippy amount of spice in it! There are two items to keep in mind: 1) This restaurant is all hard surfaces, so it gets LOUD in here. 2) Parking is limited to around five spots and it's shared with a convenience store that *will* tow you, so check where you park! This place scores a 5 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good. I wouldn't have my penultimate supper here, either.

Pad Woonsen

This place is a hidden gem! They have a great lunch special of a main entree and 2 vegetable eggrolls for $14!!! The staff were kind and attentive and the food was so wonderful. Definitely will be returning!

Vegetable fried rice Delicious!!! All veggies are made fresh!!!

I highly recommend Thai Dee! The menu features mouthwatering Thai fried rice with flavors and generous portions. The atmosphere is both pleasant and comfortable, making it a great spot for gathering with friends or family. A truly delightful dining experience from start to finish!

Obvious 4 star experience, you can tell the recipes and the preparation are all on point. I also enjoyed the way it is decorated.

A small quiet place that is excellent for a date or a quiet afternoon. Staff is friendly. Proceeds…read morego to a good cause (helping victims of the war in Ukraine) which is a bonus. The food was phenomenal! Varenyki was the best I have ever had WOW. Borsch was really good, different than ones I had before (which were much heavier on beet root and made with beef ) but this one was amazing as well, I wish it was heavier on beet root but still the top 5 soups I have ever had! The pirozhuk was amazing, a fried dough filled with a mashed potato. Fluffy and delicious I would eat this every day of my life if I could. A definite "visit again" kind of place! Adding it to my rotation

European Dumplings Cafe 8/13/25…read more We were looking for a cozy place to have a nice date and found this treasure! This is a small restaurant with minimal seating and lovely decorations to reflect the Ukrainian culture. We ordered the: -Borsh (Chicken, cabbage, bell peppers, onions, carrots, potatoes. Topped with sour cream & cilantro) and the -Dumplings (Choice of chicken or lamb. Topped with cilantro, sesame seed mix, sour cream and red sauce) both about $14.00. We also ordered a -Kompot, cold (Boiled blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, apples. Served hot or cold) to share which was absolutely delicious. The portions are small but very savory and surprisingly filling. We really enjoyed the quiet and cozy atmosphere and plan to return again soon. Thanks for such delicious food ~LindaD

Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)
