Diner Review №7

The team at Take Thai went above and beyond for our takeout meal. This the only Thai place in Louisville we will be going to from now own. The pad Thai with their homemade chili oil is fantastic!

Diner Review №9

It is a small unassuming place, not overly decorated or fancy. Friendly wait staff and it smells amazing in here. We ordered the Thai Rangoon, they use real crab meat, and it is prepared differently than most and it was delicious!!!! The Vegetable Spring Rolls were equally tasty. It was at this point I realized all of their food is fresh and made in house. Dinner was Pad Kee Mao and Pad Thai (I didn’t get to taste that one because my sister likes hers Thai Hot!!! The owner did come check on her to make sure she didn’t make a serious mistake ordering it that way 😂😂😂. It was all so fresh, clean, and wonderful. Thank you to Zach our amazing server and to the whole Take Thai Team!!!!

First time there and we both really enjoyed it! Excellent service, friendly, helpful and efficient. The food was quick, delicious and reasonably priced. We ordered Pad Thai and Tom Kah and they were both perfectly seasoned. It's a bit noisy, but overall, very clean and well-ordered. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №11

Diner Review №13

Great Thai restaurant. Food and service are excellent. Clean and bright location with ample parking.

Diner Review №14

Diner Review №15

Fast and friendly service, and the food was great!

Diner Review №16

Delicious flavor and excellent service. I ordered the basil fried rice, medium heat. I like spice and this was a good level for spice lovers. I love how they use fresh vegetables that are still crisp and flavorful. The staff is the nicest and most hospitable you’ll find. The restaurant is meticulously clean as well. Lastly, before I left I had to get an order of green curry to go. It is so good and made with love.

Diner Review №17

Had a quick lunch today at Take Thai. It’s my first time visiting this restaurant and the food was amazing y’all! They cooked it fresh upon order. The restaurant is clean and so is the restroom.
Will be back for sure! :)

Diner Review №19

Good food, fresh ingredients, great service. vegetarian options. loved pineapple curry dish. I ordered a stir fried vegetable medley with tofu-fresh green peppers, mushrooms, bok choy, etc.
nice atmosphere with flowers on table, Thailand on tv.
cons: freezing cold restaurant, won't go back in winter.
spicy level 2 felt like a 5.
fresh spring roll wasn't wrapped tightly and lost structural integrity.

Diner Review №20

Very delicious and great customer service

Diner Review №21

Great food and service

Diner Review №22

Tried this place for the first time tonight and it slaps🔥. They could maybe stand to have a spicier level. Can’t wait to try the whole menu.

Diner Review №23

Really great customer service upon entering. Ordered pad thai and wontons with cream cheese. Very delicious!! Will go back and try other things.

Diner Review №24

Great food, although the highest spicy was not spicy. Not sure if that was due to language barrier - everyone was kind and had food was on par!

Diner Review №25

A small place with limited seating. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. Once we ordered, it did not take long before the food was served. It was flavorful with a reasonable portion. The prices are above average. Overall a good experience.

Diner Review №26

First visit. Found the restaurant almost full for an early 5:30 dinner. Lots of takeout activity. Pad Thai was delicious - better than the Thai restaurant in Crestwood. Great service.

Diner Review №27

Very authentic as someone from Thailand. Excellent food and very friendly staff!

Diner Review №28

Fantastic food and service. Our family loves eating here.

Diner Review №29

The papaya salad is amazing! The pineapple fried rice is great too.

Diner Review №30

Pad Thai tasted burnt and noodles were not fresh. Tasted like they’ve been sitting in sticky sauce for hours. Could only eat a few bites. Sweet and sour was okay but nothing phenomenal.

Diner Review №31

What an amazing place, complete with friendly and attentive staff plus top notch, authentic cuisine. Chef Ann is simply wonderful and always has a smile on her face. She is very welcoming. Her kitchen skills......magical! Warning......she will always tempt you with the fresh mango and sticky rice plate when it's available. You should take her up on it (at least once) because it's heavenly. I do not live close to Take Thai, but it is well worth the 30 minute trip I make at least once a week. Never disappointed and always fresh. Keep up the awesome job Chef Ann and David!! Best wishes and continued success for many, many years!!

Diner Review №33

Food was excellent and service was beyond reproach. Friendly staff. Thai food was very authentic. Warning: Thai hot is truly THAI HOT!

Diner Review №34

Best Thai food I ever had!

Excellent food. I was late in picking up my order. They offered me to recook the pad thai. Very good experience.

Had lunch around 2:30pm, service was fast, food was hot!

Diner Review №40

Diner Review №41

I've ordered To-Go from this restaurant three times now. Each visit, the food has been seasoned well. I'd recommend the Yum Nua, Pad Kra Pao (Gai), or Tom Kha Gai.

So far, the only thing I'd really recommend is that if you enjoy spicy food, order the "level 4-Thai Hot." It's more similar to All Thai'd Up's "Medium" or Time 4 Thai's "Level-4"

Diner Review №42

We love this new thai restaurant! The staff is super friendly, and the food is amazing. The curry dishes are delicious!

Diner Review №43

Diner Review №45

Nice place and good food☺️

Diner Review №46

The food was awesome and came out shockingly fast. If you regularly like spicy food, their max spice level won't phase you much.

The decor was sparse, but the big TVs displaying helicopter footage of Thailand were pretty cool.

The service was friendly, but too attentive and persistent. We felt rushed.

Definitely give it a try!

Diner Review №47

I'm a LOYAL customer at Take Thai and I'll tell you why,1st, the owners Chris and Ann are two of the best people you would ever want to meet,2nd, Atmosphere is non stop hustle, 3rd and most importantly FOOD,,I had Thai Rangoon 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟, Chicken Pad Thai 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 best in the city,,,If you don't try Take Thai your crazy.... PLEASE GO.!!

Diner Review №48

Outstanding food and friendly staff! I had the green curry and Thai iced tea, which were both excellent. I love spicy food and found the heat level 2 out of 4 to be quite tolerable. May just go for a 3 next time. Either way, I plan on becoming a regular customer and am very happy to have this restaurant in the area.

Diner Review №49

I was excited to find another Thai spot in Louisville. Even more excited to open up the to-go containers and find the ingredients were authentic. BUT the flavors were not great. The papaya salad was bitter and the Tom kha kai was VERY SALTY. slightly disappointed because it could have been so good! 😭 I long for the day to just go back to Thailand for unlimited amazing food.

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

Very authentic Thai food! Delicious!

Diner Review №52

I went there for my first time since they open and so disappointed about food quantity and test !! And I am not sure what kind of food .?? It not even close to Thai foods . I will never comeback! Sorry to give only one ⭐️

Diner Review №53

I like everything except the foods. Don’t get me wrong. I like the staffs here. I like atmosphere. I like platting. But I really don’t like the foods. But I do not want to hurt the business so I gave 5 stars.
First - they don’t know how to work with wok. Every foods was so dry and over heated. Second - they tried to making Thai foods but I don’t felt like this was Thai foods at all. I lived in Thailand for six years and even street foods in Thailand is way better than this.Third - the price they charge and the portion they gave , the way they made the foods is not fair enough. Honestly, small portion, easy foods for such a price is so expensive. Like I said , I gave this review not bcoz I wanted to hurt the business. Hope they can do better.

Diner Review №54

Great food and service.

Diner Review №56

Food is excellent, everyone is really attentive.

Diner Review №57

Excellent service and the food was /chef's kiss

Diner Review №58

Great food, great staff! Highly recommend!

Diner Review №59

DoorDash ordered a Som Tum salad, Pineapple Fried Rice, and Pad Thai. The Som Tum was hardly spicy even though I requested the highest level of spice, and the pineapple fried rice had onions even though I asked for No Onions in the menu selection. I also did not get the fried egg for the pineapple fried rice I requested. The Pad Thai was alright.

Diner Review №60

We got C2 & T6 as our entrees, Tom Kha level 2 with mixed veg & chicken gyoza as our appetizers. All were amazing! The Tom Kha was the best I’ve ever had. Everyone was incredibly kind & helpful. Clean environment. Delicious food. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №61

I like the food however, the portions are too small for the price

Diner Review №62

Everything was fresh & delicious & came out very quickly. Very impressed! Everyone who works here is welcoming and friendly. Will be back soon! The pad see eew had amazing flavor & the thai (crab) rangoon was fresh and made with real crab. Outstanding restaurant :)

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №64

I mean, the food was fine? Have gotten take out twice now and both times the dishes were dry and under seasoned. I don't understand what they are doing with their Pad Thai, it tastes nothing like Pad Thai. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't good. Portions are on the smaller side as well. It's a bummer because as someone who loves Thai food I was really excited for this place to open. I don't know where all of the five star reviews are coming from but I can promise you it is NOT five star. Definitely better options in town.

Diner Review №65

5 stars all around. exactly what I was hoping for. No need to drive an hour for good Thai now 😁

Diner Review №66

First time trying Take Thai was yesterday. I'm back again today so yeah the food is great. Friendly staff and the iced Thai Tea is amazing. I'll be back for sure.

Diner Review №67

Nice place and nice people. I was really looking forward to trying their food. The reviews were so good. The only thing that turned out to be good, was the vegetable spring rolls. I got pad Thai with beef. The beef was extremely dry. I also got tofu in it that I did not ask for and there was hardly any flavor at all.
My granddaughter got the vegetable pad Thai. Hers had tofu in it as well, that we did not ask for. Her mom and her described it as a urine taste. I’m not sure what the spice was But it does not belong in pad Thai.
My grandson got the pad woon sen. That tasted OK. Nobody messed up on that dish. I was going to return my granddaughter‘s dish, but then discovered I did not get a receipt after I paid.
This was a very expensive lesson to learn. So disappointed..
Simply Thai is still hard to beat.

Diner Review №68

Diner Review №69

Excellent food and service. Great Pad Thai and Pad Priew Waan (Thai Sweet and Sour)

Diner Review №70

The pineapple fried rice is one of the best I have had. The owners are really friendly and made me feel welcome. The service & atmosphere where really nice it felt clean & fresh. This will be the only Thai place I go to eat from now on!!!

Diner Review №71

I just wanted to share how much I adore this Thai restaurant. My husband and I are huge fans of Thai cuisine, and this place really hits the spot for us. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the food is not only delicious but also reasonably priced with generous portions. I tried the Pad Kee Mao, and it was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this place to all fellow Thai food enthusiasts. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the owners truly go out of their way to ensure that every customer has a wonderful experience. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

Diner Review №72

I stopped in for dinner the other day. I’ve been wanting to try this place as they are new and close to where I live. I was not disappointed. Cozy and simple.

Firstly, everyone there was very nice and attentive, always checking on you and making sure everything is just right. The lady recommended a few dishes as I didn’t know what to get. I was happy with my selections.

For an appetizer, I got the Chicken Satay. Very tender and full of flavor. The peanut dressing was great. For the entree I got the Pad Gra Paow (basil stir fry) with seafood (shrimp and calamari). “Thai Spicy” as requested. “Thai Tasty!”

All great! I will be back!

Diner Review №73

I walked in to a lovely welcome from the owner. His wife was working the wok for my Pad Thai...which is delicious. Looking forward to trying one of you curries very soon. Thank you for a tasty lunch.

Now the soft opening is over...the full menu has an AMAZING massaman curry! It's so flavorful, well spiced, delicious!

Diner Review №74

The food is wonderful and the staff is kind and efficient

Diner Review №75

Food was really good, with a good portion. I had the chicken pad thai. This will for sure be my new spot for Thai food!

Diner Review №76

Taking on Take Thai KY

Newly opened Thai restaurant conveniently located off La Grange Rd on Factory Ln.

We usually order Chicken Satay, Som Tum, Fried Tofu, Tom Kha, and KraPow as benchmarks.

Chef Ann, "Tu tu," Chris and the Team truly delivered flavorful and authentic Thai tastes.

Take Thai has become one of our three THAI-thentic restaurants.

Diner Review №77

I had the pad Thai, crab Rangoon, pork skewers and finished it off with some mango ice cream. All dishes were tasty made with fresh ingredients. With the open concept kitchen for customers to see the cooks preparing the food, you know they will be practicing safe food practices. This will be my go to Asian spot!

Diner Review №78

Diner Review №79

This is an absolute gem to the community. Atmosphere is crisp, clean, and modern. The service is incredibly fast & friendly. The food is beyond delicious & plates like a Michelin star restaurant. Incredibly affordable & will become a date night staple.

Diner Review №80

Excellent food with friendly staff. It was clean and comfortable. The food comes out piping hot with a smiling face to deliver it.

Diner Review №81

Food was delicious and came out very shortly after i ordered, and the employees were extremely friendly. Great tofu, crunchy peppers, tasty jasmine rice, reasonably priced. I will definitely be back.

Diner Review №82

I'm so happy that Take Thai has opened and expanded the Thai food options in the area. I visited their restaurant today during dinner time, and it was crowded. It's a very small, nicely decorated restaurant located in a strip mall, but yet they had some live entertainment - most likely to celebrate their recent opening!

The staff were all friendly and attentive to ensure I enjoyed everything I had, which included the Thai Tea, Pad Kee Mao, and Thai Rangoon. All the ingredients were fresh and flavorful!

I look forward to returning soon to try some of the other items on the menu!

Diner Review №83

My husband and I live down the street so we’ve been waiting patiently for this place to be open. We ordered chicken satay, tom kha soup, panang curry, and pad see ew. Everything was absolutely delicious. We were so happy with our meals. The service was wonderful and everyone was very attentive and kind. It’s exactly the kind of place we were hoping it would be and can’t wait to come back!

Diner Review №84

Diner Review №90

My friend and I were there this afternoon and it was great all the way around. The staff were friendly, helpful and kind. The food was unbelievable! I haven’t had Laab Gai this good since I lived in MN 15 years ago and the Pad Thai was the best I’ve had in the Louisville area. What a treat for my tastebuds. Thank you for this great experience and the fabulous food. We will be back and soon.

Diner Review №91

Absolutely wonderful food! Exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend

Diner Review №92

Delicious food
Fast service and nice staff
We will be back 🤩

Diner Review №93

Take Thai in Louisville is a must-visit! The owners are incredibly friendly, and the food is top-notch. Their Pad Thai is one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly balanced, flavorful, and authentic. Highly recommended for anyone craving amazing Thai cuisine!

Diner Review №94

Good foods, fast service , restaurant nice and clean . Highly recommended to everyone who looking for Thai foods

Diner Review №95

Amazing service, friendly staff, incredible food. Some of the best pad Thai I’ve had in a long time. Would highly recommend! For each hotness add the chili sauce, delicious.

Diner Review №96

The owners are extremely nice, the atmosphere is really relaxed, clean, and comfortable. The green curry is absolutely delicious, and they’re willing to customize the spice level even beyond their recommended scale, which is huge for me. I’ll certainly be going back again and again!

Diner Review №97

The food is absolutely delicious. I ordered Pas See Ew. It’s the best authentic Thai dish you can find. Very friendly. I’ll definitely come back for more.

Diner Review №98

I'm very happy to have good Thai food in the area, and looking forward to their full menu later this month! The beef salad was amazing and good as an appetizer for a few people. A level 1 spice (from 0-4) on the pad thai was a bit much for me, but I'm pretty weak to spice and the flavor was fantastic anyway. For those who love spicy food, they can give you a spice rack to add even more. I don't know exactly what authentic Thai tea tastes like (I'm used to the canned/pre-mixed stuff), but what we had seemed pretty legit.

The owners/staff were really nice and kept checking on us throughout the meal. This place is definitely worth a visit.
