I usually never give not so good reviews But I was really disappointed in thai taste Southport rd today. The lady called Jojo is right..the protein in the meal is reduced..I think that the plate had 5 tiny scallops and other plate I had 2 pcs of thin chicken. If you look at their menu on this page with prices they are wrong. I got 2 lunches at 11.95 each ..my bill was 45.00. The manager did not care to discuss the prices on menu. Also, I should have checked meals. The man that took my order said it included Egg roll with each. We got one to share. I did carry out. I have gone there for years but its changed. Also I ordered number 2 spice and the man that took order said that was barely any spice I said ok cause we do not want spicy. We could hardly eat it. Have they changed owners. What a shame. read more

Wow!! I am so glad I found this place. You walk in and you are able to wash your hands in a little sink they have setup. The service was quick! The waitress gave recommendations on popular dishes & appetizers. Got the soup with the lemongrass and chicken. Got the red curry and pad Thai. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Can't wait to go back! read more

Customer service was bare minimum, other customers received their food way before mine. Server seem irritated every time she had to come over to the table - disappointed much- won't be returning read more

The food hasn't changed in over 25 years. Same chef/owner. The sauces are very savory. I had the Pad Kee Mao with fried tofu spice level 2 out of 4. I will get a 3 next time. It was very good. I only wish the fried tofu was crunchier. Their fried egg rolls are more like fried spring rolls, which I already knew, and very good. The sauce for the fried egg rolls is ok, not the best, but still good. The service was outstanding and the food came very quickly. The Asian decor was really nice to add to the ambiance. read more

Best place in the upstate for Thai Food hands down! Great service and the tone in the room is always nice and cozy

Just a quick update. Still one of the best Thai Restaurants in the area. Seated quickly, served quickly and food was out quickly. Love the atmosphere, the service and the food. If you are looking for Thai food, please try Thai Taste. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. read more

The chicken laarb was spicy with fresh herbs The coconut soup was delicious ant warmed the soul. The yellow curry was spicy and velvety the potatoes were tender chicken was perfectly cooked. A truly delicious meal read more

Awful! The calamari was rubbery and the breading on the outside was soft, not fried crisp. It arrived at the table COLD. The entrees lacked flavor. Granted, we do live In Los Angeles with a huge Thai population that makes AUTHENTIC , delicious food. The food at this restaurant lacked flavor. I would NEVER eat there again. read more

We were seated promptly at our table but our waitress wasn't the most friendly - not sure what her name was as she never introduced herself either. I got the Tom Kha Kai(Chicken) with a side of white rice. It was good but very coconutty compared to others that I've had. Still delicious though! read more

First time trying Thai food. We both had Pad Thai and Thai ice tea. Enjoyed it very much. Next time we will have it with heat level punched up a little. You can choose the level you like. We found number 2 to be very mild. Service was very helpful with our selections. read more

Horrible pad thai Daily specials are a joke: egg roll only has cabbage in it. Tofu soup tasted like boiled carrots. read more

Ummm....good Lord we wanted to like this place!! My wife, our son and I were hoping we could find some good Thai food in Spartanburg S Carolina, but we didn't. We ordered the "fried" calamari for an appetizer. It was not fried, no way....no oil, no crunch, no flavor, no WAY! Disgusting...weird even, looked baked...I sent it back!! We also ordered Pad Thai and a seafood fried rice that were completely uneventful and boring!! The Pad Thai noodles were thin and overcooked and there was no "crab" in the seafood fried rice.... We also ordered some chicken wings....now full disclosure, my wife is an amazing chef and cooks some BOMB chicken wings. I will admit I'm a little biased and knowledgeable with great wings being regularly prepared and served at home, BUT... these were absolutely TERRIBLE!! Supposedly fresh then marinated and lastly fried.... I don't think so! Some pre-prepared frozen chicken wings dropped in a fryer and served....GROSS!! Service was okay....really!! I started joking with my family that the waitress "hated me" after I sent back the disgusting calamari and she kinda quit coming around, but I will still say the service was acceptable. She was very polite and very knowledgeable about the menu. Ambiance was nice. Definitely a typical Thai looking restaurant but exceptionally CLEAN!!! I am very particular about cleanliness especially when it comes to a restaurant and even more so, the restrooms in restaurants!! This one was exceptionally clean and everything was stocked up...soap, TP, etc... Still looking to find some good Thai food here in the Carolinas!!! read more

I was sad to see 2 negative reviews both 4 months ago, presumably they dined together as they both complained of the calamari. In the interest of full disclosure I'll say I've never tried their calamari so for that particular item I obviously can not give an opinion. I've been a regular for years until I moved from SC to FL last August. I always get the same dish every single visit: #42 on the menu. I think it's called Gang Dang. It's their classic Red Curry sauce which I have shrimp added to it and NO stars or maybe just 1 star (this is a reference to their spice level). Why do I always get the same dish without changing things up? Well I've found a dish I live and have loved for many years. So honestly, I can ONLY give a review on the Gang Dang, which has always been awesome. The staff are always so sweet, so nice, so humble. This IS indeed authentic Thai food although the negative reviewer felt the need to point out they were from LA. So??? Is that some veiled attempt to paint Southern tastes in food somehow less authentic because we DON'T live in LA? In any event, every restaurant can have an off day but my entire extended family loves Thai Taste. There are 2 other Thai restaurants in the Spartanburg area that I know of but I've never tried them. I've been a loyal fan of Thai Taste for years. As to the ambiance...it's not Upscale but casual chic may best describe it. Having been to Thailand twice in my US Navy days, I appreciate their exquisitely beautiful Thai art and decorations. It's very reasonably priced. A single person could spend $20, which includes a tip. I look forward to dining there again upon my next visit back to SC. read more

As usual the food is somewhat good, depending on who's cooking and how they're feeling most of the time the food is good but now I notice that they're charge you 3% when you use your debit/ credit card they also charge you for takeout so from now on I'll make sure I have cash and to eat in. I don't know if anybody noticed but they do charge you to take out or to go I don't think that's OK, but that's their policy read more

Food was average. Service was below average. We saw kha on the menu a few time. Asked the waitress what it was and her reply was 'I don't know.' We asked if anyone in the kitchen would know and her reply was simply 'no, maybe if the owners were here but they aren't'. Never going back. read more

Food is great. FYI. With party Of 6 or more, they are very sneaky about adding the tip in and not mentioning it. They just tell you the total and you will end up adding in additional tip if you don't pay attention. read more

New to town and have been looking for a good Thai place for some time. Thai Taste is the best option for Thai in Spartanburg - but overall don't expect to be blown away! Small portion sizes, more expensive comparatively to other Thai restaurants, flavor in food is there but overall ok. The first time I came here, I was heartbroken - because I thought this place would be the one! It took a while to get seated, I guess the hostess was in the back but the counter girl was walking back and forth but never said anything to us. Once we got seated, while ordering I asked if the Pad See Ew (veggie with egg) option came with a lot of vegetables or should I just get the tofu option - she said the veggie option had a lot of vegetables. My Pad See Ew came out - there was only broccoli. No other veggies, and no egg. I was sad (I love veggies) The sauce was good, but couldn't get over the lack of veggies and honestly the size. Best yet - I got to the counter to pay and my total was $14!!? I decided to wait to do my review and go a second time. Got seated very quickly and the waitress was so sweet! I ordered a Tofu Pad Woon Sen - so many veggies! (I now think the first experience with lack of veggies was a misunderstanding) It was good. I got a Thai Coffee to go and that was a good ratio between coffee and creamer. Can't remember what my total for the coffee and pad woon sen was but it was under $14 - so not sure what happened there. Not sure if I would get a craving for Thai Taste in Spartanburg but I'm glad I gave a second chance read more

My son got food poisoning from this place. I do not recommend. Sick for days. Beware if you choose to eat here !

The. Best. Thai. Food. I. Have. Ever. Had. You have to venture out a tiny bit for this one but I promise you it is worth it. The food is authentic and insanely delicious. To this day, I have struggled to find something to top it. I recommend every single thing on the menu but #53 is my personal fav! read more

Some of the best Thai food in Spartanburg. This is the go to place when you need Pad Thai.

The chicken house noodles are our favorite! Lunch is the best time to go do you get soup and and egg roll with it. We get the spice at a 1 and we thinks it's perfect. The food is great and so is the service. read more

One of the best Thai restaurants in Spartanburg. Their pad Thai is quite alright, not a good choice if authentic Thai cuisine is what you expect. The pineapple fried rice was stellar, the rice grain is full of flavors but not soggy. The duck and the chicken sauteed were the main reason I was on a 25 min drive to get there so give them a try and you'd not be disappointed. And what more? All of this of $50 bucks ;) #thaitaste #thai #cuisine #food #rice #friedrice #chicken #duck #pineapple #thaifood #padthai #spartanburg read more

This is my husband's absolute favorite Thai place. We have stop here every time we come through Spartanburg. He loves the coconut milk with curry dish #42 (I think). We used to live in Spartanburg so it's been here a while. The atmosphere is good, food is yummy and the wait staff was just okay last time we ate here. read more

The restaurant is in a rather unfortunate location but the food is great. I recommend it to anyone who wants Thai. read more

Incredible food!!! Just incredible! It was neat to find this place. I was gonna say little place, but it isn't really little. From the outside it was pretty hard to get an idea of how big it is, but inside they have tons of seats. Love how some of the staff were dressed in traditional Thai attire. It was a breath of fresh air to see folks being proud to flaunt their culture. Ordered a variety of dishes and being that I have lots of Thai friends and have eaten in their homes many times, I can say the food here really hit a soft spot in my belly. Very fresh and well made... I wished their chili in fish sauce was better quality. I also felt their red snapper dish was a bit on the sweeter side. But taking into account the variety we ordered, we can't expect everything to be perfect to "us", since everybody's taste buds are different. Therefore I can still stand by my opinion that what they do here is a blessing for that area... and I will most likely return when I'm passing through again. Good stuff!!!! (Oh and they have my favorite beer there (Beer Lao))! read more

Easily my favorite Thai place in the upstate. Wide variety of wonderful choices at a very reasonable price. There were plenty for choices even when I was seeking a vegetarian, gluten free option for a visiting companion. The curry options also expand outside of the red/green options that I usually see as the sum total of Thai curry offered elsewhere. If you want more a Laos style level of spice, they only go up to 4, so ask for the spice tray to kick it up as many notches you desire. read more

Honestly, I don't have a lot of Thai places to compare this to, and have only had a few things from them, but this place never disappoints. I have been there many times over the last 10 or 12 years. My personal favorite is the number 59, Pud See Ew with shrimp and scallops, or chicken. Their heat level "only goes up to 4", but I order mine at least 12 (I like a little spice). Absolutely delicious every time! Highly recommended. read more

Used to be good. The last two times we went.... The food came out so fast that it all had to be pre-prepared. It doesn't even taste the same as it used to. Our service was the worst part. Brought us soup with no bowls or serving utensil, no spoons, all the courses at once, no plates, and then disappeared. Had to search the restaurant for her to get our check. She was buried in the corner on her phone. read more

Ordered Pad see ew and fried squid. Noodles were good, but the fried squid was absolute trash. Ate 1 piece of squid with their awful version of sweet sour sauce and immediately threw it away. Would get pad see ew again. read more

Dirty fork and spoon. Tea cup and tea pot was dirty as well. We ordered Jasmine tea and it sure didn't taste anything like jasmine tea. We ordered mussels with basil, steam eggplant with basil and the sliced beef salad. The beef salad had this weird smelled and taste like they used overdue meat. The mussels and eggplant was edible...not good or great by any means. read more

Thai Taste - Not good - Thai Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Stopped in for dinner and waited... We came by for dinner because we were craving Thai and wanted to try a new place. The wait began once we sat down. The place was fairly empty 4 tables. We got our drink order placed and ordered our food. I ordered panang curry level 5 and chicken satay. We were informed about 10 mins later they we out of satay, which was ok. We cancelled or app and waited for out food. Wait did we... about 20 mins later (that was being nice) we got our food. The panang curry for the price was smaller tHan I expected. The portion size was not right and the flavor was off. I tried some of my wife's pad Thai, I love pad Thai also, and the pad Thai flavor was not balanced. Heavy on fish sauce and sugar but nothing else. Was the worst pad Thai ever! One and done, will continue to try to find great pad Thai and panang. read more

This place was amazing. The service was awesome and the food just as good. I got the chicken larb. I got spice level 1 out of 4. I love spice, but if I had gotten a 2 it would have been so spicy that my nose would've run. read more

Thai Taste is good when you are craving Thai food. At other Thai restaurants I always order the pad thai and pad see ew. But, at Thai Taste these dishes are lacking in flavor. However, the best dishes they have in my opinion are the House Noodles (beef or chicken), Fried rice, duck, and curry. I think my favorite is their House Noodles though. There's something special about those charred noodles from the wok. Yum! read more

I've been eating in and ordering take out from Thai Taste since I moved to Spartanburg in 2010. That being said, after 9 years of fantastic, consistently good food, the past few months have been iffy. I'm not sure if there's new kitchen staff, but I've come to find it's a toss up now, food may be great or it may be totally different. So now instead of a once weekly treat, we only try maybe once a month and hope for the best. read more

I had a hard time tasting my food from the foul smell that was coming from somewhere on the restaurant it smelled like a wet dog times ten. This is the first time Yelp has completely failed me. I feel like I went to a different restaurant then the rest of the reviews. Service was very good but that was the only thing. I will not be coming here again. read more

Thai Taste - Salad and spring roll. - Thai Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

We had the type of meal where nothing was actively bad or wrong but nothing blew us away either. The ambiance of this place is quite dated but as a local staple we just embraced the neon lights and aged decor. Our meal started with egg rolls, which were smaller and a bit oilier than anticipated. The spring rolls were chewy and tasted like they'd be prepped a good time before. As always, I ordered the tofu pad see ew without egg. The flavor was pleasant but not remarkable and it was very light on broccoli. My husband felt that his chicken dish was equally flat. Our server was polite but drinks went unfilled and we waited about 10 minutes past finishing our bill to get her attention for the bill. I don't anticipate returning but can understand why others may enjoy the place. read more
