Unassuming eatery serving curries, noodles & other Thai standards in a simply appointed space.
Very high quality for price. This place is a hidden gem in my opinion, not only was the Thai tea perfectly what you expect a classic thai iced tea to taste like, but the portions in my noodle bowl were beyond generous. Literally scallop or shrimp in every single bite, along with perfectly cooked and flavorful veggies Great option for Thai fare in Cleveland. And you get all this for just over 12 bucks.
I visited this place to have my dinner and I was happy that I picked this place. I ordered Siam Rolls and Tofu Royale. Both the dishes were really good. I liked the flavor of the tofu in the light ginger brown sauce(Tofu Royale). They have vegetarian options making this place vegetarian friendly. The ambience of the place will definitely make you feel cozy. Their staff were polite and their service was good. Their dishes are moderately priced. I would definitely recommend this place if you want to try some tasty Thai food.
I have been ordering Thai food here for over 20 years and I can honestly say that this is by far the best Thai restaurant in all of Cleveland. The food is fantastic. I love Thai food and I travel a lot for my job and I enjoy getting Thai in NYC and SF (I get Thai and Vietnamese whenever I can). The food here is absolutely on par with the best restaurants in NYC and SF and better than anything in Cleveland. Excellent Thai. Right here in Cleveland!!! It’s been take-out only since COVID but still the best.
Whew saddest tofu triangles I've ever had. They were hard and cold. Maybe it's not their best dish, everything else we got was delicious, super flavorful, and came warm. The curry was very tasty and well packaged that it wasn't spilling. I'd definitely be back but just avoid the tofu triangles! Only open for carry out currently but would love to dine in someday!
This is my favorite Thai spot in Cleveland heights they have amazing fried rice and chicken. The owner is so nice and the food is at a great price. They are friendly to the entire community as well as the college students in the area. I love coming here my go to dish is the mango fried rice and I love it so much. They have the best peanut sauce I’ve ever had you have to try it.
I really like their salmon choo chi. Perfectly spicy for me
My wife always orders massaman curry.

Curry is straight liquid. Basically flavored water
We love High Thai'd, our favorite Thai place in Cleveland! My wife loves Thai food and since moving to Cleveland we've tried so many places all over the greater Cleveland area and nothing has been as consistently delicious as High Thai'd by a longshot! The country pad thai is seasoned exactly to my liking and unlike most Thai places we've been to, the meat is full of flavor and delicious! The noodle dishes are also packed with flavor. We've only ever gotten take out here but we've never been disappointed, better than dining in at any other Thai place we've been to here!

Order this for delivery and it’s awful. I got their spring rolls which are fried with zero veggies and hard as rocks, Thai fried rice which has no flavor, greasy chicken satay and just threw it all in the trash. The worst Thai I’ve had since moving here.
absolutely wonderful. i've gone to best ranked thai restaurants in San Fran and New York and they pale in comparison to here. 10000% recommend!
Only carry out, but fantastic food! Love it!!
Their basil fried rice is my favorite in the city, and the devil wings are AMAZING!! The crispiest wings you’ve ever had and so delicious. Love High Thai’d !!
Saturday night craving and our local places where closed. Their food is 100% worth the 25 min drive! The portions were great. It was hot when we picked it up and the perfect temperature when we got home. We got pad thai and siam rolls. The siam rolls were okay the sauce was good. We would happily do the drive again. The man working was pleasant and it was very easy to place an order.
No dine in . No coconut soup. Tom yam we have through away. Could eat. Never again
Food great but order was delayed
Usually serves up a pretty good country style pad thai with chicken (albeit a bit dry), but the quality can be a bit inconsistent.
Food was very good. Service was good, prices reasonable.
The food here is expensive and very ok
The description of the Food was totally different than what I received through door dash. The tamarind duck said corn and pea pods but it had broccoli and zucchini. I also chose jasmine rice and it was plain fat short grain rice. A totally different meal. And the duck was meh. Buyer beware.
So delicious! The best vegetable fried rice I've had around here. Their veg tastes fresh and the flavor is wonderful! I absolutely love the ginger soy sauce that came with the pot stickers! 🌟
I love High Thai'd. Things always taste fresh. They work well with customization. They are quick for take out. Friendly service. I love their Masaman curry, pad see ew, pasta basil, and chicken satay. I think their portions are a little smaller compared to competitors in the area at their price point. But it's still plenty of food.
Such a cute little restaurant with a cute name! Ordered for the first time and I will say the trudge through this thunderstorm was worth it! Super sweet staff :) I had the the country style pad thai spicy....UM YUM. and the chicken sayak very tasty with the peanut sauce. Will eat again!!!
We got the pad Thai country style and red curry. Both were excellent and large portion sizes. Food was ready quickly for takeout. Highly recommend
I've ordered door dash and regular takeout from here many times, and it's always a treat. This time I had their green curry and it was perfect, as always. Great local restaurant
I hadn't been there for a while. I wanted to try something different and I was not disappointed. The food was fresh and delicious. I will definitely be going back to tickle my tastebuds!
Unfair prices for subpar food and bad service. Curry was watery and bland.
Whew saddest tofu triangles I've ever had. They were hard and cold. Maybe it's not their best dish, everything else we got was delicious, super flavorful, and came warm. The curry was very tasty and well packaged that it wasn't spilling. I'd definitely be back but just avoid the tofu triangles! Only open for carry out currently but would love to dine in someday!
Our favorite Thai place in Cleveland. Excellent vegetarian selections! Attentive service. we're loyal guests and always feel welcomed when we eat there or have take out. Highly recommend!
The mango curry was so good! I ordered it, loved it, then the next day I couldn't stop thinking about it so I got it again 😅
I've always had a great experience here in-person and take-out, and the real Thai food is really good. The Pad Thai is great, and I'd recommend them to anyone!
Do wish they'd get a queue for the phone though, sometimes you have call back during busy hours because the lines are taken.
Excellent food.

Super tasty food, nice staff, quick times, just an overall swell place, highlight of my day getting food here!
Amazing Thai food!
Great Thai food! When I'm in Cleveland I always stop by here. One of my favorite stops on Coventry.
Best Thai in Cleveland Heights in my opinion.
Awesome place with such great food & variety! Their country style pad thai is a must try. And I love their shumai and chicken satay!
DELICIOUS. Yellow curry with tofu knocked my socks off. So so so so good.
Love this place so much. Can't bring myself to go to many other take out places on Coventry because the food and service here is consistently amazing. No complaints.
Best pad thai and basil rice in Cleveland. Top notch
Terrible service, went down in quality.......
Ordered ahead via door dash. Pho with chicken and a Thai tea. Arrives 20 min later and my order wasn't ready. The place was essentially empty but I assumed there could have been a lot of other online orders, so I was ok to wait a bit.
Got my food to go about 8 min after arriving. Got home and unpacked......
Opening the container that had the chicken, basil, cilantro, sprouts etc.....I was greeted by an odor. The basil, cilantro and sprouts were all brown. I almost didn't even recognize the cilantro it was clumped on the chicken.
I wanted to give benefit of doubt and chalked the discoloration up to..."maybe the steam in the container wilted the herbs on the way home " so I grabbed a bowl and began to assemble my soup.
First sip, broth was ok...could be a little more flavorful. Next a bite into the chicken. Oh my it was SOUR!! I'm nauseous as I write this.
I'd like to be forgiving in tough times like this for restaurants because of COVID 19, but serving bad herbs, bean sprouts and sour chicken can make people VERY SICK and there is no excuse for that.
This was my first and last visit to High Thaid.
Bad service last two weeks.
Today, short and mean on the phone, except for when there is a busy signal like all the other days.
I came in to order and explain to the lady on the phone that I know it's just my little $12, it might be busy right now, and I don't pretend that I know how to do her job... but regardless that her tone towards me was short and mean.
She explained back that she was doing her job by interrupting me on the phone, and if I wanted to, I could come around the stand and see how the job is done. In front of every customer in there.
I should have walked out then.
Instead I said that is not what I'm saying.
She responded with so do you still want the order?, When she read it back, she had had my phone order wrong.
I tried to correct it and ask the wait time. She said the chef hadn't started it before, but should have it in about 15 min and she walked away.
She went in the back and came out twice helping the other 4 customers sitting waiting for their takeouts, all the while the phone was in the chair, the screen said call duration 5min23sec and counting. She never read back my order to me, so I still don't know if it's right. But after the twice back and forth, and I am still standing in front of the stand making eye contact, ignoring me both times... Well I walked out.
I'd call and cancel but the phone is off the hook. No "is there anything else you need." And I never got an apology. Seems a $12 customer is never right. And I've come here for near 10years my family and my friends.
The man on the phone is so much better at the job and it bothers me to say that about a fellow female. Who is that woman!?
Average
Always great food here, I recommend the Thai style basil, pad see ew or one of the signature dishes, avocado curry. Of corse don’t forget the Thai ice tea, lunch prices are a really great deal
My favorite Thai place on the east side!!
Great vegetarian options. Excellent service!
No coffee, no wine even with a bar full of it as you walk in. Food just ok
My salmon, broccoli and rice noodle dish was excellent. Very clean and quiet place. We will be back!
Enjoyed the dinner. Yummy.
Delicious food at reasonable prices
Had leftovers.
Salmon didn't taste fresh. Service and atmosphere OK. #meh
Food was amazing!
Great Pad Thai, good service time, good value, and very friendly and welcoming service. One of my favorite local places to go
Great Thai food and drinks
THESE ARE MY FAVORITE WINGS.
The devil wings (touch of ginger?) are so crispy and juicy! The avocado curry was delicious and the service was very attentive.
Great food and friendly staff!
Quiet and Delightful!
This place is a treasure trove of amazing thai cuisine. I am quite literally addicted to their Pad See Ew (I'm there at least once a week to get my fix). Got my brother try out their food once and now he's hooked on their Chicken Pad Thai! The ambiance is quite nice; cozy even. And the staff are always friendly. I can't recommend this place enough!!!
Mango Curry is bomb
Try the basil fried rice.
The food was excellent, but it took a while for it to arrive. The poor server looked like he was doing the jobs of two or three people. They were obviously understaffed and he was doing the best he could. Hope management resolves this. Would have been a five star rating if not for the issues.
Great for Thai takeout. The country style pad Thai is a mildly spicy treat. Recommend the red curry with chicken, it's a favorite.
A great Thai place with a large menu. Cozy location with some parking nearby (some free but not all). Great tea and drink selection.
The restaurant itself is nice and clean, and the staff is friendly, and the food is delicious. Very high quality. The reason for one star is because it is unfairly expensive. There are many other Chinese and Japanese restaurants that are just as nice, if not nicer, that are half as expensive as this restaurant. So how expensive? For each person, it will cost at least 30 dollars, assuming you are actually hungry. You have to order multiple entries or one entry plus a bunch of appetizers if you want to be served as much as they serve you at the mall for 8 dollars. If you are rich, go here, and enjoy. If you are not rich, there are way better alternatives. There are two other Asian restaurants right next to this one, and they are both way better in terms of value for your $$$
Very good service, every food item was piping hot. Visited at 5pm on a Saturday night.
Country Pad Thai is great
I was the only one in the restaurant and service sucked. He never came to the table to check on me. On the menu it said free refills, but he said no. Food was ok and so were the prices.
Food was good, but service was kinda slow and the restaurant was empty. Menu said free refills but the server said no refills
Thought I would try this out. Since I had a good experience at another Thai restaurant(Sweet Mango). I was wrong🤔🙈. First, when we got there and seated. It them like 10 or more mins to even bring water. Which was not cold but I'll get to that. Now we're waiting for our order to be taken another 10 mins. So, we order appetizers,main meal, and drinks. Now we're waiting for the appetizers and drinks. Nothing😬😠. I had to ask another waiter for the drink menu again. Call my waiter over and ask him for our drinks
again. The drinks comes with the two cups of ice. That, I had to ask for because of the not so cold water. At this moment I just wanted to leave just being real!!! Appetizers are here now presentation was horrible and taste wasn't up to par with Sweet Mangos. We had the Devils wings and pot stickers wasn't the best. Main meal out now. Again, presentation was horrible and taste was sub par.
After bad services you still suppose to tip of which I did.
I just will not go there again. I usually take pics of the experience of a new restaurant but not this one. Homie don't play that,Facts!
If you're looking for good Thai food try Sweet Mango in Strongsville and then try this spot or vice versus. And see the difference like night and day. From services, presentation, and etc...IJS
Soups were small and not that flavorful
Nice variety of dishes...
Fantastic portion size, perhaps too much.
Good enjoyable food, fair pricing, go to eat
The Country Pad Thai here never ceases to make me happy. Everything in it is always cooked perfectly. The shrimp is tender and the chicken is juicy. I try to come here as often as I can
Mango fried rice is so good
Great place to dine! Food is awesome no matter which dish you decide to get. Love the service, wait staff is superb! Highly recommend High Thai'd

Excellent food. Great service
Great chicken teriyaki thanks Nick.
Delicious!
Bought meals to go, including 6 soups, for 12 people and it was outstanding ($165 before tips and drinks). Took 30+ minutes to get it after the order placed but worth the wait. We had food leftover even after the adult males w hearty appetites. Tasty and fresh, definitely recommended.
Good food! Great thai iced coffee! Theres never anybody else there when when go though. It is a good place and the wait staff is nice and personable.
Casual. Nice people. They will customize any dish. Good vegetarian options. We have been here at least 20 times and have never had a bad meal.
Awful! Awful! Awful! The waitress was rude. Rude is an understatement. The food was subpar. The tables were dirty and rocked everytime we moved. Yes, tables. We did not ask to move, but the waitress harshly insisted, then moved us to an equally bad table. The seafood was overcooked and clearly not fresh. The portion sizes were a joke. The manager tried to soothe us by giving us 2 cans of mango nectar. Needless to say we will never ever go there again!
Love this restaurant
Awesome food
The hostess was very nice and hospitable. Actually shoke my hand, said hello and welcomed me with a warm smile. Food was really good. I wasn't very hungry but couldn't stop eating it was so good.
I ate here a couple times now. I can safely and accurately state that: the bubble tea is delicious.
Amazing curry and large portions!
Nice atmosphere, great service and very good food
Good food and service.
Food was tasty as usual. However they made an error on my bill and charged me double the correct amount on my credit card. I brought the error to their attention and instead of voiding the over charge, they charged my card a second time for the correct amount promising that the first charge would be refunded right away. No refund appeared on my card so I called them. Now they are telling me the refund will take 2 to 3 days to process. Unacceptable!
Good pad thai
Three of us waited 45 minutes for our meals while the 4th was forced to sit at our table and watch us eat. In the end they offered a measly 10% off my friend's meal that finally came an hour later. We talked to the owner after our meals who finally gave in and comped a beverage and a whopping 20%
1st time there and will be returning. Good Thai food with a friendly staff.
Loved this restaurant. It had a cozy feel, friendly staff and the food was delicious! I loved that they offer brown rice as many Asian restaurants I've gone to don't.
We waited for 1 hour for our food, and it came out cold
Salad rolls we're mostly ice burg lettuce and soup was quite small for the price.
Excellent Venue! Great dinner for 8 of us. Drinks were plentiful. Food was delicious. Service was outstanding.
Great restaurant for an authentic Thai food experience. Country pad thai is dialed into my taste preferences and I absolutely love it. Restaurant itself is kept well-maintained and has a classy atmosphere despite calling itself a cafe.
One of my favorite places in Cleveland Heights!
Excellent food at an affordable price. The portions are quite generous and the atmosphere is cozy without feeling cramped. Good for families or first dates.
The restaurant was empty when we arrived, for good reason. The food is hardly edable. Everything was overcooked. I could not even finish my salmon it was so dry. Will not be back. Sorry to have spent my money on such a poor experience.
Cozy, and the proprietors really make you feel welcomed. My favorite is the red curry!
Great thai. Prompt service.
Wonderful service & servers!!
Excellent food
An amazing, authentic Thai place. Would highly recommend the Crazy Noodles or Country Pad Thai.
Super friendly people, quiet and relaxing place to enjoy a good dinner
Great Thai food. We ordered the pad thai country style, which was some of the best pad thai I've ever had. The price is great as well.
The food here is so good and the waiters are always super friendly.
