AWFUL CUSTOEMR RELATIONS. Before the terrible storm yesterday, a man ordered carry out. I was also waiting for carryout. Other than us two, there wasn't any other customers in the place. He had just gotten off work and the storm hit. It was pouring outside. They brought this man his food and he proceeded to take an empty seat and eat some of his food so he didn't have to take his food out in the rain to be drenched. This establishment MADE this man leave. They have no heart. Who does this to a man who just gave you his hard-earned money? There weren't any other customers he was disturbing. They could've let this go being as there was heavy rains and 60 mph winds. I'm guessing they lost two customers yesterday, myself and the man who was kicked out. And I'm honestly hoping a few more people will read this and decided they don't want to give their money to a business who treats their customers like that. read more

Best thai restaurant in Downriver whatever you get on the menu you will be very pleased.

Stopped in here with a large group of people from my work within the last two weeks. The service was quick considering the size of our group. Between us all we tried more than 3/4 of the menu, and none of us had something we didn't like. We were all treated to the lunch special prices, so we were all out out the door in under $10 for the meal. I was impressed with the quality of the food, it was my first time trying Thai cuisine. I'll definitely be back. The only small hiccup we had was their credit card machine was not working properly. Eventually it worked, but it took longer than it should have to pay for some of our meals. Then again, we were each on our own ticket, which probably caused them to have more hassle than it was worth as well. It was a non starter, and didn't impact the experience at all. read more

I have been coming here for a while now and I can say that they consistently have great food. Price is decent. The dining room is a small. Today however, there was a young lady who was working like a superstar on the counter and the dining room. There were tons of take out orders and everybody seemed to come in at once. I never waited for her to serve me and she attended to my needs like a pro while just getting hammered with take out order pickups. What really impressed me though, was that she never once stopped smiling and she remained friendly through all of it. Kudos to her. This was on 2-15-20 @630pm read more

absolutely amazing Thai food! sometimes the lady at the register can be a bit abrasive, but you can tell she is trying to do too much. best Thai restaurant downriver read more

They gave me hard rice and said it would be ready in 10 and I ended up waiting 30 minutes and wouldn't give me fresh rice.

This is my favorite this place in downriver. I order from here probably 2-3 times a week and have for over a year since I loved back to Michigan. Every time I visited before moving back, this was always a staple. The staff is friendly, they have a large menu with a selection that could probably please just about anyone. My favorite is the kow pad chicken, it has such an awesome flavor to it as compared to other Thai fried rice that I've had in several other states. The portions are large, even for lunch. If you dine in for lunch you also get a soup with tour meal. Give them a try! read more

Food is good, server was very attentive! Eating in could be a problem if they are busy. Many pick up orders processed while I was there so I can tell they are loved. Wish they had garlic pepper option for a dish. Would definitely recommend. read more

Thai place has been a staple of places to get takeout for years. And honestly, it's always been at the top of our list. We usually shoot for the fried rice, but often times get the pad Thai and the mee thai noodle and they are to die for. The tofu Todd and the shrimp rolls are great appetizers to grab too. They always treat us well with good service and we've never had any issues. We always put on friends on to this place and they love it! It's easily the best thai place downriver!!! read more

Went here for the first time today. Very busy inside around 7 other people waiting along with me. The worker helping me out was very nice. Enjoyed the food and huge portions. 2 meals in one for me. Awesome Thai Place in Southgate. read more

It was okay. Be aware that they demand you spend at least $9 of food to use a debit card. The server suggested I buy a spring roll to bring the total to $9. I refused... My lunch special was $7.95 plus a tip was over $9. The server asked the owner in the back if that is okay...she did not seem okay with that idea but what are you gonna do?! Not my problem they have a POS that cost 50 cents per transaction (per the server). The food was OKAY. read more

Been here four times Had the teriyaki chicken excellent, tried a new soup today hot and sour, been here for lunch and dinner food always been good Service been good prices are good you got to try it read more

Giving you 5 stars cause I love you so much. In the time I've come here, not once was a carryout wrong. The minute I start to order, she knows my name and what I want. My favorite thai downriver read more

I didn't even get to taste the food, so I cannot speak to that. But the service is atrocious. I arrived to pick up my order, to find out they only made one pad thai, not two. I let them know I tried to ask the woman on the phone if she got 2 orders down, but she hung up on me before I could get to it. While I'm waiting for the second order, this woman comes out from the back to argue about whether or not she hung up on me, to which I ask "Are you really arguing with a customer right now?" because I just couldn't believe it. She persisted and I decided to just cancel both orders. Unfortunate that I didn't get to find out if the food was good or not, but no food is worth just terrible terrible service, no matter how good it is. read more

Wow we been regular customers now for 8 years always fast friendly service, just don't get it all them negative reviews around the Web about mean rude lady, we never experienced that.

The place is freaking AWESOME! Cheap, nice, good food, and the staff is down to earth. Very nice. I'll be coming here from now on.

The freshness in these Thai dishes is uncanny. Every component or spice that is mixed into the entree has so much flavor as well. I was surprised to see this little gem tucked away in a strip mall. I had always passed it and never paid much attention to it until I read some reviews on Yelp. Most Thai restaurants have tendency to overcook the vegetables and the protein can be tuff. I love my veggies with a touch of crispness and that can only be done if the produce is fresh and is not precooked to speed up the cooking time. When eating any dish here rest assure that any bias you may have will be changed because the food preperation is just that good. All the entrees are very typical of most Thai restaurants so don't worry all the usual dishes are there to enjoy. The place itself is small but, there are a few tables to sit with a companion to dine in if you choose. This place is not good for groups because of the size. If you're looking to do carry-out this place is an excellent option. read more

What can I say. I drove by this place every day for the last two years and never knew it was in this little strip mall. Thanks to Yelp I was able to find it. Food was outstanding. Yes it is a very small restaurant. Your best bet is for carryout. Food was outstanding. The carryout containers were sturdy/rugged and excellent for keeping your food fresh for lunch the next day. Portions were plentiful and everything tasted great. Spice was just right as ordered. Will definitely be back there again! Thought it was a little pricey, but no complaints. read more

This restaurant has wonderful food but the staff there are literally incompetent and rude I have never gone to a restaurant where I left a 20% tip and they came running out to tell me that only order carry out next time because I didn't leave a tip I told her the tip was in the jar by the register because she was only one girl working the floor and I thought that was her tip jar don't think I'll ever go back rude rude rude read more

I was so excited when this place first opened and even more excited when I dined in and tried their food for the first time! Lately, I've been getting carry out and it hasn't been nearly as good as when it first opened and I ate inside. The food has all of the flavor that you expect from a Thai restaurant, but unfortunately lacks the extras that I would normally hope to find in my Pad Thai. Barely there chicken and one small chunk of green onion. *sad* That being said, it's good in a pinch if you're craving Thai, but doesn't hold a candle to Sala Thai in Eastern Market. The search for nearby perfect Thai food continues... read more

First let me say I went in with a cold and not all my taste buds lol. I had the shrimp drunken noodles and Tom Kha soup. Both seemed very salty or they use MSG. From what I could taste due to my cold it had good flavor l. The soup and noodles were def made from scratch. The sauce on the drunken noodles had a nice consistency and not gooey. I thought the soup could've used a little more coconut milk. Also the noodles were a touch over cooked. The presentation was well.... pretty much plopped on your plate. I'm def gonna go back and try this place again when I'm not sick. I'll also be asking if they use MSG. I think if they worked on a few things this place could def be a 4.5 star. Again I'm not digging on this place I just think they could fix a few things. read more

I've been looking for a good Thai restaurant since returning to the area a couple of years ago. Sadly, I drove past Thai Place countless times before actually stopping in. I was wrong. I should have stopped in long ago. Lunch dishes are reasonably priced (about $6-7), and free hot and sour soup is included if you dine in. Spicing options range from mild through double extra hot. (I like a lot of heat and I find that the "hot" option is pleasantly so. I'll be back for extra hot when I am feeling adventurous.) The place seems to be family operated and the staff is very friendly. The dining room is small, but well decorated. I have already recommended Thai Place to friends and look forward to return trips in the near future. read more

I ordered Shrimp Pad Thai as a carry out. When I came to pick it up the woman was impolite and not at all friendly. I was really looking forward to this because I love Thai food. This one was a big disappointment. It was greasy and tasteless. There was too much egg and not enough shrimp. Everything was soggy from the grease. Awful ! If you want great Thai try New Bangkok in Northville. It's completely the opposite of this place. Tasty, proportioned evenly, large quantity of good, NOT greasy. The bean sprouts are placed on top and are fresh and crispy. The prices are about the same and you also get soup with shrimp chips on the side. It comes with the meal. I got no soup with this meal at the Thai Place. I paid the same for less food that was way below par. I know it's a distance from this place but if you're in the area stop in at New Bangkok. You won't be disappointed. AND they are very friendly !! read more

Very yummy! We thought we had found our "Thai place" but another friend had told us to check out Thai Place. We are SO GLAD WE DID! Very fresh, large portions and AMAZING FLAVOR!!! If you are wanting to dine in be prepared to possibly do take out. They have a VERY small seating area. That is the only thing I didn't like. But I can deal with that :) read more

After being told numerous times to try Thai food, I finally went here after reading all the reviews. All I can say is I am in love with this place. The hot and sour soup was AMAZING, the Pad Pak, out of this world. The food is fresh, veggies in the entree were still crisp and not overcooked. I will be going back over and over!! read more

It is not too often I write about downriver establishments. Why, you say? *scratch head* I am too embarrassed to try giving reason. Far too sad that I don't get out enough there. I need to seek advice on that. Dr Phil... help. Anyway... Thai Place... yes, THAI PLACE!!! I can say without doubt that this is a hidden gem. Small? Hole in wall? Downriver?? Spend too much time thinking about this and you deserve your noggin thrashed mercilessly with large stale ginger root!!! The shrimp rolls... *gulp* getting dizzy ...they are SO GOOD, OH SO GOOD! PEANUT CURRY WITH TOFU! Oh sorry for yelling. Tom Ghai soup (may misspell here). The food is great and wife-san much appreciates that. It is worth the trip and a pleaser. Cons? Only that they have website that could use update. Oh and maybe if you too sensitive to hot foods (Mild can feel like med-hot). Move your feet to Thai Place promptly. Thank me later. read more

This was the first Thai place I ever tried and I was an instant fan. The waitress is very nice and very helpful. I always special order things and they've always gotten it right. I recommend going one level of spice below what you think you want and add to it with more chilli sauce. My wife and I usually get a spring roll and I like the Thai style hot and sour soup. Both are delicious. The food choices are huge so be prepared to have lots to take home. I could easily make multiple meals out of anything I get there. One who dines in should note that they are a very small resturant and there isn't a lot of room to sit but this really hasn't been a major problem for us since we tend to make this a late night choice before they close. read more

Great lunch specials. Friendly staff. Thai Place has a certain charm. The place is tiny. The tables are tiny. There is no music. But I wouldnt change a thing. The food isnt exactly groundbreaking, but its consistently delicious. Love this spot. read more

The food is amazing! Customer service is great, especially if you go often. My favorite is chicken pad Thai curry. Very filling food portion as well. read more

got carry out from here for the first time today. I got the pad Thai curry (no spice) with scallops and it was really good! the scallops were large and soft. I was surprised by their size. my only complaints would have to be I wanted a little more scallion and another lime or two for acidity. I also got the Thai iced tea and omg it was amazing. I asked my boyfriend to go get me another one. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be addicted to them. my boyfriend and son both highly enjoyed the chicken teriyaki. definitely recommend this place, gonna be a regular spot for us now! read more

Babe just brought some home. First I was mad because he was home late. Then I smelled the food. Changed up my whole attitude. The food was delicious. The shrimp was a decent size. The portion was great. Enough to save some for lunch, tomorrow. And Thai doesn't taste bad, reheated. My new favorite place. read more

Lunch is only $6.50 and it comes with free soup if you eat in. Not sure why they call it hot and sour soup, it is just hot! I ordered Gang Kew Warn with fried tofu and medium spice. The dish had lots of tofu and they also did not skimp on the veggies including red and green peppers and eggplant which is my favorite. The meal came with an extra large bowl of rice. I almost asked for Hot in case they tone down the spiciness level for Downriver. However the green curry was definitely a perfect Thai medium spice level, requiring four glasses of water! read more

Had take out from here last Sunday. We ordered shrimp pad Thai, chicken pad see ew (sp), hot and sour soup, and vegetable spring rolls. Pad Thai was bland, pad see ew did not taste the same as other Thai places we have had it from. Tastes like it was missing something. Hot and sour soup was horrible! Way too salty. I couldn't even eat it and I love salty food. Spring rolls were the highlight of the meal. Huge disappointment after reading all the great reviews this place has gotten. We will try another place next time. read more

According to my reliable sources, this is one of the better Thai places south of Detroit. The owners are Thai. They serve all the normal noodle and rice dishes and can accommodate your spice levels. Lunch entrees are discounted and comes with free hot & sour soup (which is pretty good). I tasted the pad thai, pad see ew and drunken noodle. All of them were good! read more

This is my favorite Thai restaurant in the Detroit area. In particular, they do an excellent job on the Pad Thai Curry, which has a thick, flavorful sauce (unlike most places I've gone, in which the sauce tends to be thin and uninteresting). I also like that they ask whether I would like steamed or fried tofu instead of just assuming one or the other. Finally, their spice levels are appropriate - I get what I expect when I order Medium, and my wife gets what she expect when she orders Mild. Overall, a solid, good place to eat. The only complaint that I have is that the inside is just a few tables in a room - I assume they do a lot more business with carryout than dine-in, to the detriment of the dine-in experience. Still, it's perfectly fine, it's just not quite nice enough to bump up to 5 stars. read more

I love Thai food and this place is sooooo good!!! They food was delicious and the stay was friendly.

Best Thai in Downriver, however best to carry out, dine in is small when door opens all the heat or cold just rushes in do to the small open floor plan. read more

Thai food is authentic and delicious!! 10/10!! Service is great! And the actual restaurant is very cute and cozy- it is clean and comfortable. read more

when the food here is done right it is really good, however it is very inconsistent. I ordered a 101, and the sauce was like pure salt and overly soupy. I also ordered a 111 the Gang Gai and it was very good. read more

Very poor customer service I was yelled at for asking what different types of spicy flavors they have and when I asked for a side of hot sauce they only gave my a very small sample size and said if I want more it requires me to pay. Never going here again. read more
