It makes 0 sense why this place has the rating it does. This is my favorite Thai restaurant. To be fair, it was the first Thai spot I ever tried. It has a special place in my heart- have been coming here for like 15 years now. That being said I have eaten at some of the most highly rated Thai restaurants across the country and can confidently say I leave this place as satisfied as anywhere. Consistent, traditional Thai with enough unique components that make it irreplaceable. I bought a tray of 500 spring rolls for my wedding it's that good. Anyone hating on this place is probably a petulant Lakeway mom with their nose up at everything. 10/10 recommend read more

Good Pad Thai! A little sweeter than I expected but still good. Looked like a nice place when I went to pick up my to-go order, not sure if the low rating for this restaurant is accurate to be honest. Food was good, will be back! read more

Thai Spice - Chicken Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Lakeway, Texas

Thai Spice is a clean, nice-looking place with a comfortable atmosphere. We were seated right away and the service was on point from the start. We ordered a couple of appetizers that came out looking amazing, and they tasted even better. Everything we had was fresh and full of flavor. I honestly don't have any complaints. Our entrées did take a little longer than expected, but since we were already enjoying the appetizers, it wasn't a big deal. The food felt thoughtfully made and really hit the spot. We left full and happy. I'd definitely come back. If you're in the area and want a place that delivers great food and a relaxed vibe, Thai Spice is worth checking out. It's a great choice for a date night or just grabbing dinner with friends. read more

I'm used to eating at the Thai Spice locations in Houston, but I was delighted to see they also have a location here in Austin. The taste profile is pretty different, but I appreciate the quality of food they have to offer. The menu is a little overpriced, however the freshness justifies the prices. I would suggest coming here for a celebration or even on date night- perfect ambiance for any occasion. read more

We have been here many times. Pad Thai is good. Pad kee mow with pork is our favorite. Tried it at several other restaurants and Thai Spice always wins. It has a chargrill flavor to it that we love. read more

The noodles were pretty tasty and definitely a generous portion. I even had leftovers for dinner! The place has a nice, chill vibe, and the service was good. A solid spot for a relaxed meal! read more

Been coming here for years. Food is great, I recommend the yellow curry, pad thai, the appetizer sampler, and the thom kha. So good! Service is always friendly, and the outdoor seating is nice with all the flowers and plants. Prices are a tiny bit on the higher side but not out of the ordinary. I always tip well here. Takeout orders are also always well contained and easy to transport read more

Omg. Absolutely worst thing I've ever eaten. Chicken was dry and overcooked. Flavor was bitter and awful. Vegetables were just junk. Will never order from there again. It's a definite no. read more

The food here is excellent. However, I was very disappointed with the online pickup ordering experience. I had entered the order, all ny pertinent information and my CC info and pressed enter to place my order and it wouldn't go through. It rejected it every time I tried to send the order. When I checked the totals, the tip amount was at zero. Which was perfect. I usually tip in cash for pickup orders. After a while, the app finally flashed a message stating that it would not place the order until I specifically either hit a preset tip amount or went into 'custom' tip and manually enter a tip amount. I usually tip in cash for pickup, so this was frustrating, a waste of time, and actually pretty presumptuous since not everyone tips on pick up orders. Again, great food, but the app could use more...flexibility. read more

Very unfortunate experience with this location, while bringing in the new year with family from out of town. Food was ok. Serves was deplorable and manager only made excuses for our server. As a frequent visitor to the area, I nor any of my family or friends will be patronizing this place. Happy Holidays! AN read more

Thai Spice is by far the best Thai food around Lakeway, or anywhere within driving distance. Our absolute go to spot for takeout, they never miss. Delicious food, good portions, great service and friendly staff. Highly recommend the Pad Kee Mao... delicious read more

Ordered a few things from Thai Spice on Uber Eats. Didn't realize they were located in Lakeway. We ordered some fried tofu, pad Thai, a soup, and two curries. The green curry ended up being quite spicy. But everything was flavorful and delicious. Not overly sweet, like some other places in town. The food was great, and I'm excited to actually eat in-house in the near future. read more

The food was pretty good. It's nice that you can get a cup of soup. The service was great. The salad we had was not recommendable. Too bad I can't remember the name of it, other than it wasn't the larb. read more

Got the hot and spicy sour soup to go It was only HOT and salty! Wanted to like this place as it seemed like it had a nice ambiance and is in my area. Not sure if I would order again read more

Thai Spice - Small Hot and Sour Soup - Thai Near Me - Lakeway, Texas

I got the Pad kra Paw. It said it came with an over-easy egg? The egg was good but it wasn't over-easy. The rice tasted dry. And I ordered one of the only items with two spicy pepper icons on the whole menu and I asked to make sure it was spicy. I think it was maybe a 1/10 for spice... I wouldn't even consider it spicy. It looks better than it was--it was good but just sort of boring and bland. But beyond all that, I looked the menu up on their own website before coming in and thought to myself "the price is a bit high but oh well" but when we got in, we were given menus where everything was $2-3 higher than their online menu. My only theory is they updated their menu prices to match their artificially adjusted takeout order prices. Walking away paying $50 for a Thai tea and two standard entrees is way too much for this kind of food, especially when you're misleading customers with the prices! read more

Thai Spice - Pad kra Paw - Thai Near Me - Lakeway, Texas

Pretty good Thai food for the area. Some dishes are quite spicy even for Thai food. I'd recommend.

I ordered summer rolls (they call it something else but they're summer rolls) and larb. Both were terrible. The larb was overly sweet and the summer rolls were tasteless. The sauce that came with the summer rolls was an overly sweet, chemically concoction with a taste reminiscent of peanut sauce. Will never eat at this restaurant again. read more

Overall a great place to eat, including the service the ambiance and the food. We ordered the following and most of the food was good. 1. Chicken dumplings: taste was fine, felt a little stale, maybe frozen that was unfreezed. 2. Chicken satay: good 3. Pineapple fried rice: good 4. Masaman curry: really good curry, the star of the show 4. Basil Eggplant : a very good vegetarian option, tasted really good read more

Today was my first time trying thai spice, although, I've wanted to come here for quite some time! I really love the building- brick walls, ambient lighting and overall great location. To start, I ordered a Thai tea. It's my favorite drink to get at thai restaurants and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Perfectly flavored, I patiently waited for my entree. For my meal, I order pad kee mao- another favorite of mine. When it arrived, it was full of ALL the colors which I LOVE! Lots of bell pepper, serranos, broccoli and bamboo shoots! The pad kee mao was tasty and spicy- just the way I like it! I would come back and look forward to trying another dish! read more

Easily the best Thai food in Lakeway! So good, in fact, we will drive 20min from Westlake to get there because there are so few Thai restaurants around us. Our favorite dishes are the Pad See Ewe (chewy thicc noodles, lots of veggies, good amount of char) and the Tom Kha Chicken soup (perfectly creamy and tangy, I could have this everyday). We'll usually order just these two items to share or get at least one of them through the lunch specials which, btw, comes with lots of other appetizers. Such a good deal for this amount of delicious food. I'm getting hungry just typing this out! Other things we love about Thai Spice: cute outdoor seating area, friendly staff, and ample parking. It's also right next to the Lakeway HEB which makes post-meal grocery shopping super easy. Be back soon! read more

First time eating Pad Kee Mao made with butternut squash instead of noodles. It was fantastic! Could not tell the noodles were butternut squash. I highly recommend! read more

Food and service have been great the 2 times I've dined in and ordered out. I've enjoyed all of these items: Pad Thai lunch special (dine-in only) Crispy fried duck Side of fried rice Noticed the yelp rating didn't reflect my good experiences so I had to chime in. I'll be coming back regularly! read more

We order from Thai Spice at least once a week and we are never disappointed ....my kids keep it simple and go with the kids fried which is scrumptious - I go with the sesame chicken and of course the egg rolls... and my husband loves their curry. Seriously everything is divine. We have been enjoying for 10+ years and still can't get enough. read more

Rude staff and manager. They get mad if you ask for any changes to the dish like no chicken in garlic chicken and ask them to make it veggie. I asked them to make it veggie and they put a blob of chicken on my dish just to show that they cannot make it veggie: I am surprised that they can do Such a thing. read more

The quality of the food is so so at best. Ordered the Pad Thai with shrimp. The noodles were overcooked and warm and the shrimp chewy. Nice waitstaff but slow service despite the place being almost empty. The lighting is way too bright. read more

This place was my wife and i's go-to dinner spot for the year we lived in the area. The flavor was sublime and the food was always exactly what we needed. We only ate in the restaurant 2x, but it was a nice place. read more

Food is delicious, healthy easy on the tummy. Love a good Thai cuisine - service could be a bit friendlier sometimes but overall I like it.

Super accommodating for vegans! I got the pad kee mao with no egg or fish sauce and it was delicious! Adorable outdoor patio as well. read more

Bad food and even worse service! Didn't provide basic things like CLEAN plates and silverware for everyone at the table and had major attitude (literally rolling eyes) when we had the nerve to ask for a fork for each patron or a plate without dried food stuck to it. Who brings 4 forks for 7 people?! The portions have gotten smaller, are more expensive, and are lacking in flavor and quality (e.g., chewy, tough meat and very little of it, more onion than noodles, etc.). Not sure if there's new management, but this is our second bad experience in a row and, at these prices, we won't be back. read more

Been wanting to try this place out since we moved into the area. So glad we did!!! Ordered two different Pad Thai dishes and some dumplings online (to-go)...it was all great! Pad thai was made to order preferences perfectly! Dumplings were delicious! We will definitely be coming back! read more

Ordered to go and when I arrived my food was ready. Got it home and everything was correct and delicious. I think on this visit I ordered the Yellow curry but have been here before and had the chkn pad Thai and it was good too. Will be back on my next visit to Lake Travis read more

Great service. Consistent quality in food/taste. Relaxing and nice ambiance. My entire family, including the kids love this place. When I join my daughter at school lunch at Lakeway elementary on occasion, I ask her what she would like me to bring. She states:satay chicken on sticks and rice!" This means I bring her the beloved Thai Spice appetizer. read more

Great place! Love the fact that this gem is conveniently located in Lakeway off of 620. I had the green curry and loved it. It was very flavorful and a great balance of heat. Others in my group had the pad Thai and sesame chicken. Both were very tasty. Ambiance was hip and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. read more

Thai Spice Restaurant in Lakeway has some good dishes and a great patio. I ordered the yellow curry and the Pad Thai. Yellow curry had much more flavor than the Pad Thai. The chicken satay was also really good. Overall pretty impressed. The prices were a little high, in my opinion. Friendly servers. read more

Good food and lots of it. I had the sesame chicken and it was delicious. I'll try it again next week. Clean and great service! read more

Easy online ordering system with a good variety of options. Quick pick-up when I got to the restaurant, and it looked like there was a decent amount of outdoor patio seating for those who are covid cautious. I had several specifications made in the notes when ordering and they fulfilled every one, even confirming them with me when I picked it up. It was tasty flavoring across the dishes, with a blend between reusable and disposable containers. Do be careful if ordering the Jungle Curry - a 3 spice level will be more like a 6 because there is no coconut milk to soften the spices. Also, the shishito peppers will not keep well or reheat well, so be sure to eat those immediately. My only real grumble would be that the rice noodles came in a paper box without wrapping, so they stuck to the container and pulled off paper with them. Very minor thing overall, and would definitely go back there again. read more

At first I was concerned with the three star review but my wife and I LOVE to support local restaurants and they recently opened up so I thought I would give it a try. I was surprise to also see so many reviews but I think they must have moved from a different location and the reviews followed them...maybe they should have started fresh? Given this COVID situation we ordered via phone and quickly placed our order which was going to be ready in 30 minutes. We arrived 30 minutes later and the food was ready and it was nice that we also could order a couple beers to go. My wife and I ordered Pad Thai and Chicken Fried Rice. Wow, the food was so hot and fresh and we were both VERY satisfied with the flavor. The Fried Rice was one of the best we have ever had...delicious garlic flavor that was like none other that I have had! Overall we were very pleased with our food. It was the best Thai food that we have had in Austin! The prices seemed very reasonable as well! read more

My fiancé and I have been searching for a Thai restaurant ever since we moved to the area. We tried Thai Spice and finally feel like we've gotten our new fave. Great food, Great service read more

Delicious, plus the service was quick and very friendly! Tried the Chicken Larb (SO FLAVOURFUL!!), and the Pad Thai made with sweet potato noodles + I requested fried tofu bcz that's what I used to get when they delivered Pad Thai. Everything was fresh, flavourful, and again, service was friendly & attentive. I'm glad of glad I didn't order delivery thru the service (see initial review below), as it forced me to come dine in, and I'm glad I did! I'll be back soon! NO MORE In House DELIVERY! Looking forward to trying the Pad Thai on sweet potato noodles in their new location (where Toscano used to be, The Oaks of Lakeway), but I am disappointed to say that they no longer deliver. I was willIng to pay for the new grubhub delivery until I went to check out and it had (2) $6 flat rate fees + tax, (so about $16) BEFORE tipping (which is always good to do). Literally backed out of payment page, despite the ease of Applepay, bcz I couldn't stomach the high fees! . Maybe once they're up and running, they'll do their own delivery? Probably not... this may be what ""progress" looks liked read more
