Sorry, I didn't save my video for my food. I had the Thai basil fried rice, 2 orders of steamed dumplings (the sauce is incredible), and the crispy duck. I deployed to Thailand in 2023 and this rice was pretty much as authentic as can be. The duck is a star and the Thai Tea is first class. Loved the portions and it's nice and elegant in there for such a small restaurant. Service was quick enough for my liking. read more

I've been going to this place for years. It is my go to Thai restaurant for whenever I go to the office and come here on my lunch break. It is a small cozy spot and the service is usually quick. For this visit, I got a sweet iced tea with the beef noodle soup. You can customize the spiciness of the soup to your liking. Usually I add sauces to my pho, but this particular dish tastes great without adding the usual sauces. read more

I ordered from uber eats and quickly realized I've had this Pad Thai before and just couldn't remember the name of the restaurant. I remember not liking it then and I don't like it now. First, the color of the food was beautiful, vibrant even so I was expecting a burst of flavor. But that first bite felt so flat. No recognizable, classic pad thai taste. No savory, not a hint of fish sauce for umami. No balance of salty or hint of sweet. Just sour. It's very bland compared to the color I'm seeing. Kind of disappointed and I hope this review helps someone not choose pad Thai and instead maybe try another, more delicious menu item instead The good news is they make your food super fast so if you don't care about flavor and need a quick meal, their turn around time is impressive read more

Very fairly priced and great atmosphere, but the food lacked the high levels flavor I was looking for. Still enjoyable for the most part.

Hidden gem. Amazing food and spice levels. Nuff said. They always have a table available or you do not wait very long to be seated. Staff is courteous and efficient. read more

I'm completely surprised I've never left a review of this place because I've been coming here for probably a decade now. My first time trying Thai Spice was actually a delivery order to the Tiger Woods area/neighborhood of Jax which is pretty close to the restaurant. I loved it so much, I knew the next time I tried, I needed to actually go in, and experience how delicious the food is first hand. This Thai restaurant is pretty nostalgic for me. I really love bringing my closest loved ones here for their first experience - Friends, family, significant others, etc. Each time they leave loving it just as much as I do, while also mentioning just how fair the prices are at Thai Spice. I feel like I need to mention that too bc that's pretty much unheard of in 2024. (Thank you Thai Spice for keeping our wallets in mind) Do you Love Thai tea? For the addicts out there like myself, Order Thai tea Here! I don't know what they are lacing this specific tea with but hot damn it's good! It's some of the best in Jax that I've ever tried. The spice levels for food range between 1-4. Usually when ordering they will ask, but sometimes unless you mention specifically what you would like heat wise, the dish will be not spicy, or it will be a mild 1. I order my dishes at a 2-3 and it's tolerable. It's a solid medium at 2, and a spicy, more intense medium/hot at 3. You will go through a fair amount of water ordering your food at a 3; it's good. This past visit, we ordered roti, steamed dumplings, Tom kha soup with chicken, Laab beef salad, and volcano chicken and rice with a large Thai tea. Ya know how anyone and everyone who has been to Hawkers talks about how good their roti is ?, ok, here... same deal. The roti is something you definitely should order and try. It'll come with 2 large pieces of paratha. You will have dip/sauce leftover, and it goes really well with entree selections (like drenched on your rice) . You could of course just order more paratha (bread) when ordering the roti as well if you would rather eat more of it as an appetizer. (Personally, this roti is way better than hawkers, but that's just my opinion) Salads get a bad rap. Normally I do not order salads when dining out because I hold a high standard for crisp, clean, fresh veggies; but at Thai spice, I will always order the Laab. The cilantro, lettuce, red onion, fresh mint, is all so crisp and fragrant, it's a ten out of ten every time I order it. The flavor they toss everything in is amazing. Get it a lil spicy to give it some zing. A level 2 or 3 is perfect. Honestly you can go a lil spicier for this one since you have the crisp iceberg lettuce to wrap all the ingredients in. (Notice how you see zero white iceberg pieces on that plate - that deserves a mic drop alone) Give this lil hole in the wall restaurant a try. The service, food, experience is worth it. read more

Ordered DoorDash delivery from Thai Spice Kitchen after so many good reviews; but I wasn't really all that impressed. I had the Tom Kha soup which was really good, but the Pad Thai fell flat. It was not very flavorful, but also seemed to use the wrong noodles; instead of linguine rice noodles it tasted like they used some sort of spaghetti noodle. I would order the soup again, but never the Pad Thai; I'm sure they have other dishes that are better. But it just wasn't for me, mainly because I was craving some good Pad Thai. read more

I order from here occasionally when I have the urge for Pad Kee Mao. The food is always hot, the flavors are delicious, and the spice level is customizable (although tempered for the American palate). The portion size is generous, I often split one order up into two meals. The Thai Tea is a sweet, refreshing accomplice with the entree. read more

Food sucked. Curry dinner in small bowl. Vegetable all raw. Not enough chicken to feed a chicken.

Amazing! One of my favorite Thai restaurants. I always stop in when in the area. I had 45 minutes for lunch and was in and out with tome to spare. I ordered the chicken Penang Curry (medium spice) came with rice and a Thai Tea. It all came out within 5-8 minutes of ordering. Both were Amazing! The Thai tea was not too sweet...just sweet enough. The Penang curry was so creamy and perfectly seasoned. I would say the medium spice would be spicy for some so beware. But perfect for my taste. The inside was clean and open. If your in the Bowden area give them a try! read more

I order from here pretty often - i love their pad kee mao and spicy udon! The sit-in area isn't super fancy or decorated but it is clean and service is pretty fast. I know it is not for most people but i actually like my food pretty spicy and the 3-4 on their scale really delivers! It's great to get genuinely spicy dishes (but if you are scared my friends have told me the non/mild is pretty good too! Everytime i bring take out from here the delicious smell gets everyone asking where my food is from) read more

Love their food but some meals could use more protein/veggies not just rice or noodles. Their prices are lower than other Thai places but which they had cheaper lunch prices or weekday specials. read more

I've been there several times now for lunch and the Pad Krap Paw is awesome! Great Thai taste and spice!!

We checked this place out early on a Saturday evening (5ish). It was empty when we sat down but a few more groups came in while we ate. The service was prompt and polite, and the restaurant was very clean. We started out with steamed pork dumplings and fried spring rolls. Both appetizers had 5 portions and they were so tasty! Especially the sauce with the dumplings! For our entrees, husband got the Pad See Ew with chicken (spice level 2/4) and I got the mixed (fresh!) vegetables and chicken with garlic sauce (spice level 3/4). We just drank water but they do offer some beers and basic wines. Our food arrived quickly, and steaming hot! We both enjoyed our dishes, and thought the spice level was perfect for each one. We look forward to trying more dishes at this quiet little out of the way gem! read more

Been here several times with my friend and it's about time I write about this restaurant. Family owned and the staff are very nice. Definitely try out their Thai Tea because it's refreshing and something different you usually don't get. What I've had thus far are the following: Red Curry, Drunken Basil Fried Rice, Thai Naked Wings, Roti Appetizer and Bangkok Waterfall Beef Salad. Red Curry (Hot) - delicious; sweet and spicy curry with bell peppers, basil and eggplant. I asked for no bamboo. Drunken Basil Fried Rice - fried rice with some great heat! Thai Naked Wings - fried unbreaded wings with a special sauce. Roti Appetizer- nicely cooked hot roti with curry Bangkok Waterfall Beef salad - grilled beef with salad and nice sweet crunchy Thai dressing. Overall, very good and most likely to return. read more

Oh OH OHhh so good. What a find we stumbled across. Wasn't familiar with the area and grandkids found cheesesteaks on Yelp. When we pulled in to the parking lot we saw Thai Spice Kitchen. My granddaughter changed to Thai as well as hubby n myself. The staff was super friendly and we love that. The inside is decorated tasteful in Thai made and imported decor. It's on the quiet side. The food is awesome and their sauces are also amazing. We will return another day. read more

Loved this Thai food! I heard about it from Sara B., but didn't know where it was. One night we had a craving for thai food and I decided to check how close it was. Less than 15 minutes away from where we live - perfect! We browsed the menu and Yelp reviews and placed an order over the phone. We ordered a tom kha soup and pad see ew with veggies for me, roti app, pad thai chicken, and a thai tea for my boyfriend. The girl was so nice when she took our order. We couldn't believe the price for all this food was only about $40. My boyfriend ran in to pay and pick up the order, and it was ready right when we got there. Everything was so good!! I didn't want to go TOO spicy on my first visit in case their spice levels were crazy. I could definitely get the tom kha soup a little spicier next time. Pad see ew was great and had enough veggies. The pad thai was made with spaghetti noodles - I'm not sure if they were rice noodles still or not. The sauce was really, really good, but I prefer the other noodles I am used to when ordering pad thai. The highlight of the meal was the roti with dipping sauce. I think the dipping sauce is their yellow curry. I am going to ask next time, and if so, I want the yellow curry for my meal. The restaurant is a stand alone building in the middle of a parking lot in a small shopping center. Next time we will eat at the restaurant. The food was delicious and was enough for 2 meals for each of us. Great, fresh food, great prices, and nice employees. We will be back! read more

Good Thai food in a very nondescript building. You would drive by here a hundred times and never think about stopping in, which would be your loss. The Drunken Noodles are pretty solid. I've had it a couple times here and every time it was very good. All in all, this place fits the description of a hidden gem. It is in a nondescript building in an equally nondescript shopping building, both of which have definitely seen better days. But if you pass it, you are passing by a great meal. read more

I'd say this is one of the top Thai spots in Jax. Cute little shop off Bowden Road. In a stand alone building in front of a shopping center. 0% occupied when we arrived around 7 on a Wednesday night. 1 other table eventually came. Good amount of take out orders were observed. Went with the roti and peanut sauce for an app. Just as good as Hawkers which is saying something! Drunken Noodles were to die for. Every single bite was eaten. 4 out of the 5 of us so fished our plates. read more

I love Thai Spice Kitchen. They are always great with allergens, and when ordering in house, they always are very quick. I order from here whenever I feel ill, or just want something that is consistently good, and this never disappoints. Plus their mango sticky rice is so very good, I cannot stress that enough. I usually get the yellow Panang Curry with extra rice since the portion they give (of curry) is usually enough for two! 10/10, would have another birthday celebration and order externally again! read more

The food is good, the workers are nice, and the environment is so comfortable and brings nice vibes!

Food was fresh, flavorful, piping hot and beyond delish!! Perfect degree of spice to my liking considering order very spicy and rarely get the level i washoping for! I absolutely adore the attention to detail with packaging that this restaurant took with placing the entree with sauce inside aluminum inside the styrofoam container. I cannot tell you how many orders with sauce have been inside the plastic bag they were delivered in! I truly enjoyed this meal and have not been disappointed when eating in or having Doordash. read more

They're so good, I wish they were open on Sunday! I had an awesome bowl of green curry with chicken. It was nice and spicy! I tried the pad thai which was good, though I think I prefer the curry. The curry had thai eggplant in it which I'd never tried before. It was really good. They have thai ice tea and that tom kah soup I have to try next time! Great service. I wish they were open Sundays!

Thai spice has a very nice ambiance, good customer service and a really good price on the items on their menu that matches the price or is even cheaper than other Spicy Thai spots in JAX. I really think they have good flavor in the food being served and the spice level depends on you. I only recommend 2-3 on their spice level. Level 4 "Thai Spice" you won't survive unless you can eat ghost peppers without flinching or sweating Dishes recommended to try are Drunken Noodles, Fresh Spring Rolls, Thai Spice Roll, chicken "Pad Thai" or my personal favorite the "amazing Thai" (peanut sauce) dish with chicken and spice level mild or medium. read more

Another hidden gem of a Thai restaurant in Jacksonville that's not afraid to fool around with spice! Lawdy, they crank up the heat to 11. Very well decorated, quiet spot off Bowden Rd. The boys and I dined here on New Years Eve and although they were in the mood for curry, my belly had noodles on the brain. I went with the Chicken Pad Thai and it ended up being an esteemed selection. We were the only ones in the restaurant and the food was prepared and served in a matter of minutes. You eat with your eyes first, right? Great presentation with rich colors, a pile of chopped peanuts and a lime wedge ready to be extracted. The flavors gelled together wonderfully. The elasticity of the noodles was pure insanity -- they stretched about a foot and a half in the air from the plate! The unanimous star of the show were these tender, sultry noodz. Although the chicken had a kick, it seemed a bit dry. One of my dining buddies also commented on his chicken, too. Otherwise, the dishes were fantastic. I ended up taking a to-go order for my lady, and she gave her stamp of approval of the Pad See Ew with Tofu. We might have a new takeout place in town to add to the rotation. Don't sleep on this hole-in-the-wall, Thai Spice Kitchen kicks it up a notch! read more

Stopped by for a quick meal a little before 8pm. The place only had around two other parties inside at the time. Server was nice and said both the pad thai and the pad see ew were good, so I went with the beef pad thai. I started off with the crispy rolls, which comes with 4 rolls and sauce. Thought they were solid. The beef pad thai came out shortly after. I had level 3 spice (out of 4). For some reason, the beef was somewhat lukewarm while the rest of the pad thai was hot... Just seemed odd. Otherwise, the pad thai was good, but I didn't get the spice I was expecting, so maybe I should have ordered level 4. Pricing is fair, around $10 for the pad thai. I wouldn't mind coming here again! read more

Hmmm, maybe I just ordered something that's not for me. The tom yum soup has an intoxicatingly strong flavor, like it should. It's suitably tangy, and loaded with spices. They'll make it hot enough for you. The lad na though......is it common for it to be more of a soup than a gravy? Whenever you have a soup, a lot of the umami is drained out of the ingredients into the broth, and I feel like it wasn't ideal for this dish. So the flavor was good, but not the best. Also, partly because of this, the noodles started falling apart into smaller pieces. Before I was half done, it started feeling like I was fishing for noodles with my chopsticks rather than grabbing them. I still gave it four stars because I think this place is pretty good, but that was my subjective complaint. I'll be back. read more

Whenever I order from third-party delivery services, I always like to try different places that look family-owned. My pad see-ew was still steaming upon delivery which is amazing. The portion sizes are great. I don't eat much, so it easily covers 2-3 meals. I also always appreciate when the spice levels are accurate. The hot level is perfect for someone who loves spice. The thai tea is great - just sweet enough for the average person (I personally always have to add extra ice or milk to dilute the sweetness). I can't wait to dine in soon! read more

I was seriously saddened by my experience here. I ordered food through Uber eats and was very specific about what I wanted. It wasn't a matter of miscommunication with the app, that wouldn't be their fault at all. It was the flavor of the food. I ordered pork pad Thai with extra sauce medium and it was the blandest food I have ever eaten. How is medium spiced Thai food bland? It was so far from spicy I tossed it. The porn tasted like it was boiled which was very off putting. I did, however, really like the spring rolls. The kids portions are decent sized too which was nice. Fried rice was pretty good, or so says my spouse. I didn't try it. I think I may stop in one day and order there to see if I have a different experience. read more
