This is possibly the best Thai restaurant in the area. First, lunch specials are very well priced with how much food you are getting and feel very full afterwards. The dinner portions(also well priced) are Thai dinner portions and you will leave with a to-go box. The quality of the meals are amazing! All the food has so much flavor, it’s as if I’m eating from the streets of Thailand. If I ever had a question regarding anything on the menu the staff has no problem explaining and offering you recommendations.

The food/service will speak for itself on the care and quality that Thai Star accomplishes. Highly recommend. I also highly recommend the coconut noodle soup!!

Diner Review №3

The Panang Peanut Curry is really good! Definitely the best down here! And the Coconut Curry Noodle Soup is super tastey too!

Diner Review №4

The Mango curry is delicious

Diner Review №5

This is by far my favorite choice for Thai food in the area. Always fresh, full of flavor, and properly seasoned. The atmosphere and service make it a pleasure to come here

Diner Review №12

Everything was fresh and delicious. We found this little gem of a restaurant while looking for an Italian place to eat at, thankfully it (italian) was closed. So happy we went here instead! The people were amazing and so was the food! Highly recommend, if we lived local, we'd eat here a couple times a week! We had soups, appetizers, entrees, and coffee!

Diner Review №13

I had a wonderful meal with my daughter. The gyoza was tasty as was the chicken drunken noodles- #2 spice level. It was perfect. The service was great and the restaurant was nice and clean. A very comfortable little place.

Diner Review №14

Laos style food with Thai flavors. Stir fried plates are all off for vegetarians due to the fish sauce mix. The vegetable fried noodles I had was fantastic. The service is very friendly to warn me about their stars in terms of spiciness and the fish sauce in certain dishes. Definitely a good place to have Thai/Laos food.

Diner Review №15

I had the pad thai with beef, very good hot green tea delicious combination very nice atmosphere nice people you got to give it a try!

Diner Review №22

Wonderful Thai food you will love. A quiet little strip mall restaurant, great personal service and great food.

Diner Review №23

It was a Sunday night, I ordered delivery through Door Dash. I ordered Sweet and Sour chicken was very good, fresh and nice pineapple, green and red peppers. I ordered the cucumber salad, very good. I also ordered spring rolls and fried wontons. Everything was awesome.

Diner Review №24

Great food and the customer service is amazing . Always get the green curry and the mussuman curry is terrific too. Then I always go over with the family to menchies to enjoy froyo for dessert ..I love Thai and this is the best Thai food hands down in Lee county . Love the interior decor too. Their lunch specials are also exceptional and the food always fresh

Diner Review №25

I love the red curry dishes. Never have I been disappointed. Good food and friendly service. It's a hidden gem. And the portions are generous. I'd give it a five star if it we're closer to us in Naples. Worth the drive though! Thanks Bill!

Diner Review №26

Delicious!

Diner Review №27

Diner Review №28

I loved this place! Came for lunch around noon on a weekday, we were greeted and sat immediately. The gyoza are on point! By far the best I’ve had at any Thai, Japanese, or Chinese restaurant in the Fort Myers area. Service was very quick and the prices were fair for the portions. You pick your own spice level on a scale of 1-5. I went with a 3 and it wasn’t too spicy for the Cashew chicken. I’ll definitely be back!

Diner Review №29

Small storefront off of Daniels Parkway and Plantation - easy to miss - but you don't want to miss it! There were five of us and we were seated and greeted quickly. The pad thai was the best I have had in a long time - the appetizers were spot on! Would definitely go back (wish they weren't 3 1/2 hours from where I live)! Sam (our server) was attentive and very pleasant. If you are looking for good service, good food at good prices - check them out!

Best pad Thai in fort Myers. I have had a many o’ pad Thais in this area and the ratio of sauce, noodles, peanuts, green onions is on point. You will not be disappointed

Diner Review №33

The food is delicious and the employees/owner are super friendly. We love coming here. I recommend the massaman curry!

Amazing food to try here! Anything you order here, it will be the taste to enjoy from the chef. Everyone is nice here and food is very comforting whether is spicy or not. Love it!

Diner Review №37

Great curries and nice experience.

Diner Review №38

Excellant service, food and price.

Diner Review №39

Food was excellent service outstanding the evening was fabulous

Diner Review №40

Been eating here for 10 years! Never had a bad meal & they are the sweetest family :)

Diner Review №41

Service and food both deserve 5 stars. Highly recommend this place 😃

Diner Review №42

The food was solid... Pad Thai and Massaman Curry. Server was very good and knowledgeable.

Diner Review №43

Friendly staff and delicious laap salad, they added fresh Thai chilli upon request which some places don't, huge plus.

Diner Review №44

Take out. Pad Thai noodles not good. Chicken satay dry and hard. I have eaten there a few months ago and it was great. That's why I came back. Will not come again though sorry. Place was empty not one customer. Bad sign. Must be new owners. Stay away.

Diner Review №45

One of the best Thai restaurants in the area. Coconut noodle soup is a must have. Excellent pad Thai, very good chicken satay is a wonderful atmosphere. It's always a joy eating here, and I wish I could stop in more often.

Highly recommended.

Diner Review №46

Nothing special. Very bland and way too expensive for what it is. Two plain veggie spring rolls were $8 and the pad see ew was flavorless and $20. Will not be ordering from them again.

Diner Review №47

Diner Review №48

Absolutely disgusting food! Nothing authentic about this restaurant! If you can’t taste food it’s perfect for you! We walked out and went to a different restaurant!

Diner Review №49

Nice man, decent dumplings. Tom Yum was watery broth, not a thick sauce, chicken with weird chewy pieces, Tom Yum should be thick like tomato soup, and for 15$ not good chicken. 4 people walked in as I walked out at 12, empty at lunchtime. I lived in Thailand for 8 years, this would not pass there. The other reviews must be by friends or relatives.

Diner Review №50

I’ve been coming to Thai Star for close to 15 years; since they were located in Bonita Springs. Honestly the best Thai food around - nothing else compares.

Diner Review №51

Small quaint family owned restaurant. Best Thia food in the area. They will custom make it to the spice level of your liking.

Diner Review №52

Long wait and food came out at different times for different people at our table....but DAMN the Tom Yung Goong was good! Worth the wait for sure!

Diner Review №53

This food is so flavorful with just the right amount of spice. You can't go wrong with the coconut stir-fry noodles and coconut soup. A delicious, comforting meal after a long day.

Diner Review №54

Very good. I had the yellow curry and my wife had the red. Huge serving. I’d definitely eat there again

Diner Review №55

Decent food and service. Large portion size.

Diner Review №56

EW! I didn’t think a Thai restaurant could mess up on pad thai but they did. It was so over done and tasted sour/expired. I also ordered the pad see ew and it was the same way. Will not be back!

Diner Review №57

Fantastic food

Diner Review №58

Incredible. Service was top notch and the food was to match. They brought out soup before I ordered and it was very tasty. Chicken egg rolls are a perfect balance between light and crispy and the sauce pairs very well. I try to get Pad Thai when I travel because its my favorite dish, this one was unique as the sauce was a tad different than I have had or made but, it was very good and balanced the spice well.

Diner Review №59

Yummy food and good service.

Diner Review №60

Very great food and great service.

Diner Review №61

This is the place my wife and I like to go to when we are in the mood for some really good Pad Thai. They also have some amazing soup. Every time we come here they treat us good.

Diner Review №62

Diner Review №63

First time visiting, we tried their TomYum Soup (with shrimps, level3 spicy). Just the right balance of sourness and spice. Will come back for more.

Diner Review №64

Literally worse Thai food ever…noodles with sauce with no meat or veggies. Pad Thai is hard to mess up but they did. Overpriced and terrible! Don’t make the mistake we did and believe the fake good reviews.

Diner Review №65

Stopped here while I’m the area for a disaster response. Had the pad Thai and a Tom Kai gai which were all wonderful. Pleasant tan friendly wait staff. Would highly recommend and would return!

Diner Review №66

A great find and a change of pace to international eating.
My husband and I were there for dinner the other evening. We had a great experience. The food and service were very good.

Diner Review №67

Authentic flavor and atmosphere in a tucked away hidden gem.

Diner Review №68

Diner Review №69

This is the best Thai food I have had in Florida. The quality of the food is excellent and the service is great. Make sure you try the coconut soup it is amazing.

Diner Review №70

Diner Review №71

The Nam Tok (beef salad) is amazing, very filling, and they use a tasty ribeye cut. Wonderful selection of drinks beers wines and also ofc good basic Thai dishes that are very flavorful and have an authentic taste

Diner Review №72

The Thai tea was good. But the food was not home made. The wontons in the soup were bought from traders or Costco- i know because i buy the same ones at home. Disappointing. The broth also tasted like it was ready bought at the store. Overall, i would not come here again. They should start cooking from scratch.

Diner Review №73

This is my absolute favorite Thai restaurant! It's family owned and operated. The food is wonderful. I have been eating there regularly for years.

Diner Review №74

My mom and I like to come here for a nice dinner, and we love the Thai star coconut noodle soup. Everything is so flavorful and comes out very hot! The Thai tea is delicious too. We love coming here!

Diner Review №78

Good food at reasonable prices. Can always get a table.

This is your sign to order the drunken noodles and the appetizer sampler!! So delicious and flavorful, I will definitely be ordering again. The fried tofu is insanely good 😍 I added sriracha to the noodles and it elevated it!!! 10/10

Diner Review №85

Diner Review №86

Awesome Thai food fast and priced well. Also 5 mins from my house...dangerous because now I order all the time:-)

Diner Review №87

The curry was delicious. Best I've had in a long while. Always nice when these small strip center places put out fantastic food. Gyoza was prepared well and tasted great. Chicken Satay sauce was great but the chicken was on the cheaper side.

Diner Review №88

Awesome service and the food is spot on. Big thank you!

Diner Review №97

This place is amazing, we have eat there for years, it is always consistent! We have always been treated like family, you always leave very full, the portions are big. The flavors are wonderful, if you say the food wasn't great on a review, you problay haven't even ate there, or your never happy about anything! It is authentic and wonderful, please don't change a thing!!! The coconut noodle soup is amazing!!

Diner Review №98

Excellent food and service

Diner Review №99

Food and service are very good.

Diner Review №100

Amazing food that is so good I crave it .The owners are very personable and welcome you like family! Highly recomend.

Diner Review №101

Love this little place! The owner is very friendly very nice person. The flavors are top notch!! I have enjoyed everything that I have ate.

Diner Review №102

Amazing experience for take out. Red curry was out of this world and very flavorful. The yellow curry was cooked to perfection with the right level of thickness. Mango sticky rice was to die for. The only warning I have is if you like spicy food, make sure to order at least a spice level 3. I'm a chili head and I ordered a 2 just to be safe and I would have liked more heat.

Diner Review №103

Service was prompt, food was excellent, definitely come back again.

Diner Review №104

I am not a food critic but do love food with flavors I enjoy and delightful restaurants. Having only been enjoying thai cuisine for 3 years now, it has become my favorite food to eat when I can. Thai Star has my vote in every category with exception they are not in my hometown. Delicious flavors and presented in a manner that shows they take pride in their craft. Absolutely recommend 👌

A friend invited me for a business lunch. Although I have been to several establishments within Orion Plaza I have never visited Thai Star. My loss as I quickly learned what I've missed out on all these years. The fast friendly service makes for a great work lunch experience. The Pad Thai was delicious. I will definitely return and try other dishes.

Diner Review №109

Great new dinner find...really well placed thai flavors. Nice fresh spring rolls and spicy side sauces. Coconut softshell dish is great.

Service is fast and efficient...friendly and very covid conscious.

Put them on your SEasia list for sure !!!

Diner Review №110

Diner Review №111

Great spring rolls and soup. Authentic thai.

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

The pad Thai is heavy handed, not what one would expect at a restaurant. Will not return.

Diner Review №114

Diner Review №115

Ordered cashew chicken and broccoli chicken. Both were bland and tasteless. We needed to add our own spice. I would look elsewhere.

Diner Review №116

Great food! Never disappointed!

Diner Review №117

Quality of the food wasn’t that great

Diner Review №118

Good first time

Diner Review №119

This is our go to Thai restaurant. Everything we have tried for the menu has been incredible! Especially love the pho and pad thai !!

Diner Review №120

Ordered the lemon grass coconut soup. Thom ?? It is usually sour, hot, and kinda sweet with lemon grass, lime, cocnut milk, ginger, tomatoes etc....tonight it was watery chicken stock with a splash of coconut milk and a few mushrooms floating & chicken.....nothing else, and it was horrible!

Diner Review №121

I order door dash from this restaurant all the time and it is SO GOOD!!!!!

Diner Review №122

Delicious pineapple curry

Diner Review №123

it is great to have a top flight Thai restaurant a short drive from home. We have eaten in and used take out many, many times. Always good food and service. Especially the last time. The soup was not in the take out package and the owner called to apologize and asked if I could drive back. When I did after eating he added four fried banana rolls as a thank you for our business too. We appreciated his kindness and wonderful food very much.

Diner Review №124

Stopped in for dinner, had the coconut soup it was very good, will warm you up, our dinner were also well prepared, and very healthy, give this place a try...

Diner Review №125

Delicious

Diner Review №126

Great food, very fresh, family owned and operated. We've been frequenting the owner's restaurant since before it was called Thai Star in Bonita Springs; I think almost 15 years now. We've introduced it to various friends, and it is the restaurant of choice to take our guests when they come to town. It has never failed to disappoint. Even our finicky nephews enjoy it and have gone back with friends! We live about 14 minutes away, and the food is still piping hot when we get it home. This is a restaurant to support, especially during this pandemic. We do not want to lose this gem in Fort Myers! Get it for delivery or pickup, you won't be disappointed.

Diner Review №127

The service was excellent and so was the delicious food!! Will go back!

Diner Review №128

Tasty food, lunch special included yammy soup. Moderate pricing, friendly service. Recommend.

Diner Review №134

My roommate got the house fried rice and loved it— she usually exclusively eats Chinese fried rice and says she liked this better :’). So excited to get more people on the Thai train. Pad Thai was the perfect portion and the tofu was cooked PERFECTLY. We got spring rolls and they snuck and extra one in for us.

Amazing curry. Best frog legs ever. Very nice server. A very nice family owned restaurant I am happy to spend my money at.

Diner Review №141

The food is okay, not the best. the service is sub-par. Was treated noticeably different by the staff than other customers and I didn't feel comfortable or welcomed there.

Diner Review №142

Best secret place to avoid snowbirds and even better food

Diner Review №143

Great food and can actually be spicy if you ask then to make it spicy

Diner Review №144

Diner Review №145

Delicious. Only 1 server so there might be a bit of a wait on the food but it is worth it

Diner Review №146

Really great tasting food and a great value for the price. Food came out fast enough for me to eat it during my 30 minute lunch break and be back to work on time. Overall, a great experience and I plan on coming back soon

Diner Review №148

Authentic Thai and Lao food. Very friendly service.

Diner Review №149

Diner Review №150

Great food and service. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №151

If you are looking for good authentic Thai food go somewhere else because this is NOT it. This was the worst Thai food experience I have ever had. The food was disgraceful. The service was worse. I came in for a Panang Curry. Which I have tried at many places before. And upon receiving my curry there were no basil leaves in the curry, I asked the waitress if it was there and she told me the basil leaves I asked for in the curry where in the curry already and then comes back with them dry on the side and said nothing. After trying the curry I noticed it had no flavor at all. She never came back to my table so I was not able to ask her why it had no flavor. Then when I waved for the check she brought it and I asked why there was no flavor. She then said because everyone that comes here know to ask for it spicy or not spicy. I told her I was not given the choice and that it is my first time here and she said everyone should know. Worst experience, service, and Thai food I have ever received in my life.

Diner Review №152

I love this restaurant. Family run. Great fresh-made food. Reasonable prices. So delicious. They will accommodate dietary preferences as everything is made to order.

Diner Review №153

Diner Review №154

Diner Review №155

Good flavor and you get to choose the heat level.

Diner Review №156

Really great. I highly recommend the house curry or the yellow curry!

Diner Review №157

Good food at a fair price.

Diner Review №158

Great food; Pad Thai, Coconut Soup... All of it!

Diner Review №159

Food was amazing, service was great. I think I've found my regular Thai place to go to. We had the Panang Curry 2 star spicy, with pork, the peanut taste was perfect. Thai tea is also a good price and nice quality.

Diner Review №160

Great service,fresh delicious food, I loved the pineapple curry. My friend loved her pad Thai.

Diner Review №161

Consistently great food! Excellent service. Pleasant atmosphere. Great coconut curry soup. Too many favorites to list. Coconut ice cream to die for. Definitely 5 STAR !!!!

Diner Review №162

I've been going to Thai Star for years now and every time I go I'm impressed. The coconut soup is amazing and I would reccommend just about any item on the menu. Lunch prices are a steal.

Diner Review №163

Best soup I've ever had 💕

Diner Review №164

Perfect balance between sweet and spicy. A little dissapointed in the drink selection. But over service was good. Food was great!

Diner Review №165

Great service, nice atmosphere and we loved it. Thank you Thai Star.

Diner Review №166

Great thai food and service as always.

Diner Review №167

Read the reviews, drove out there and boy, did I have a great meal! Highly recommend their food! I had the green Thai Curry - goooooood!

Diner Review №168

Petit Resto thaï situé dans un coin difficile à trouver. Très bel accueil. Excellent service. Ce n'est pas le meilleur thaï que j'ai mangé. Nous avons pris un pad thaï et un poulet au gingembre. Les 2 plats étaient bons.

Diner Review №169

Diner Review №170

Very good. I had the beef panang curry medium hot. Wife had pad see ew. Both were excellent and I know my Thai foods. Dishes were light and flavorful never heavy or salty. Will definitely be back

Diner Review №171

Very good. First time there didn't know what to expect. Would go back again.

Diner Review №172

Diner Review №173

Diner Review №174

This place has been consistently good! Coconut soup is amazing. Plenty of veggie choices also. I want to try other things but I end up always getting the yellow curry with chicken because I love it. Heck even my Mom loves it and she isn't one for Thai food usually (sweet and savory if you get it mild) . Pro tip: lunch is much cheaper (11 to 3) and they are closed from 3 to 5 to prep for dinner.

Diner Review №175

Great food and awesome service. Owner is a great guy who remembers every detail and treats you like family.

Diner Review №176

Excellent food. Good service. Quaint atmosphere.

Diner Review №177

Diner Review №178

Impeccable service with mouth-wateringly delicious food in a clean restaurant; nothing more to ask for. I'll definitely stop here during my monthly visits to this area! A++!

UPDATE : Visited again May 2019, and again they hit it out the park! Excellent food, service, and cleanliness! ❤️

Diner Review №179

Nice clean friendly place with awesome food. I love the crispy duck and the pan fried dumplings. The prices are reasonably will definitely be back since chens Bristro is not doing the duck anymore. I'm not sad anymore because that is my new place to go.Give it a try you will love it

Diner Review №188

The best Thai food in Fort Myers and always consistant! The Massaman chicken curry is so addicting. Fresh, high quality ingredients and the portion size is enough for multiple meals.

Diner Review №189

The service is horrible manager is extremely rude and food wasn’t that great.

The rudest people there I will never go back.

Coconut noodle soup was one of the best soups I have ever had hands down. Main course was well cooked but rice was dry. Owner was friendly and helpful, quick service. Next time I visit I will be getting the soup as a meal and some to take home.
