The food was very good and we will be going back. I gave a 4/5 because the flavor was too understated.

We had the very bland Spring Rolls and Crab Rangoon for appetizer. My wife had a delicious Massaman Curry Chicken (she likes mild). I had Shrimp Pad Thai. I ordered the Pad Thai with Medium spice. It was the most authentic Pad Thai I have had in years. It was delicious, but here was absolutely no heat to it whatsoever. This really detracted from the flavor. We also split the Mango Sticky Rice for dessert which was also very good.

The service was excellent!

The restaurant was simple and nicely done. However, there is no vestibule, so whenever someone entered or left the restaurant a cold wind blows through the seating area. The front of the building is floor to ceiling glass, so when someone parked in front of the building turns on their headlights it is blindingly bright.

Overall, we liked Thai Spice and will be going back

Diner Review №6

Good taste food, good service and the prices aren't so expensive. The atmosphere is clean and cozy to eat there or pick the food to eat at home. It's a very good option if you want to eat tasty Thai food. If you don't want spicy they have options. I eat the option Number 1.4 SWEET AND SOUR with beef with pineapple with Jasmine tea. It was delicious! I recommend them!

Best Thai food around. Consistently delicious. Fun staff.

Diner Review №13

Usually very pleased with the food and service. However, on this Sunday night 10/27/24, near closing time, this Spicy Veggie dish with Shrimp, was very very disappointing, to say the least. The shrimp was inedible (tough and chewy), the basil/broccoli was chewy but wouldn't actually chew up or break down to swallow, the rice was soggy and that has never happened. We always eat in (lunch mostly); but tonight, we got a to-go box (Sunday night). Not only was it a lot more expensive but the quality was no where near what we have had inside the restaurant on weekdays. What happened?

Diner Review №14

This is my first choice for Thai food!!!!

Diner Review №15

The food is great.

Diner Review №16

Best Thai food in the upstate.

Diner Review №17

Thai Spice never ever disappoints!! They use incredibly fresh ingredients and you can taste it! My favorite is the ginger chicken, loads of shredded fresh ginger and vegetables with succulent chicken in a wonderful sauce. The spring rolls are crunchy and come out super hot and fresh!

Diner Review №18

Very good food and great service !

Diner Review №19

Massaman curry was absolutely delicious… I’ll be coming back every chance I get

Diner Review №20

Diner Review №21

If you want to experience a delicious meal that isn't your normal flavor, you really should give Thai Spice a try on town square in Abbeville, S.C.
You can enjoy ordering dishes spicy, normal (or not spicy. I personally enjoy a bit of spicy foods on occasion, but I don't enjoy eating too spicy.
I enjoyed my Nam Tok beef salad & rice noodle soup with calamari. My wife had the Pork Fried rice, & Tom Yum soup w/chicken & we both really enjoyed the authentic Thai tea for our drink. Next time, I will definitely try their Tom Kha soup w/chicken.
If you don't like any spicy foods, be sure to mention that to your server, otherwise it will have a little bit of kick.

Diner Review №22

First time Thai fried rice had a very bad burt taste. Decide to try the place out again and ordered the Red Snapper, the fish was old, it was very rubbery and tuff. I did not reheat or anything, I tried it as soon as I got the order. I will not be back.

Diner Review №23

Best Thai food in Anderson. It's not in the best location, but the food and service are fantastic. Very convenient if you happen to be at the hospital.

Diner Review №24

Diner Review №25

Anderson is a little over an hour away for us but totally worth it for us to eat here. These people can cook Thai. Very, very good. Probably the best I've had since Hawaii and the Phillipines.

Diner Review №26

Diner Review №27

This is my absolute favorite Thai place. I've tried many other places across the US, but nothing compares. The chicken pad thai and the massaman curry with chicken are my go-to orders. So good!!

Diner Review №28

Diner Review №29

We've been eating here for a few years. The food has changed maybe because the cost of food has increased dramatically. Tom Kha Gai soup is still delicious and the best in the area, but the appetizers, crispy rolls and fresh rolls, were disappointing. The ingredients have changed and they are not as tasty. Rice seems to have been added as a filler. The Crispy Pad Thai is still very good. We'll still eat here, but our selections will change

Diner Review №30

I love their tofu! Eating with friends at Thai Spice!

Diner Review №31

I have been eating there for a while and the prices have been going up every time I order drunken noodles started at 11:95 then it went to 13 then it went to 1410 now it’s up to 1521 Think It’s about time for me to find somewhere else to start eating dinner and food don’t taste the same I hate to do this i’m really disappointed I ordered today and the price was $15 and the food wasn’t the same

Diner Review №32

Food and service is great!

Diner Review №35

Prices are much higher than this menu. Add 7 bucks to each entree price and 3 to each appetizer. They need to upload a recent menu.

Diner Review №36

I love eating here, very cozy, great food and friendly servers.

Diner Review №37

Great food

Diner Review №38

Incredible fragrant, freshly prepared Thai food exploding with layers of flavor and seasoned to perfection. The ingredients used are fresh, and the food is delivered to your table hot and delicious. My wife had the cashew nut chicken and the chicken pieces were crunchy and the sauce was well balanced but intensely flavored. I had the paradise ginger chicken and it was loaded with jullienned ginger and savory sauce, and chunks of white meat chicken. You will wait for your food, but it is worth the wait, because everything is prepared fresh to order and the quality of the food shows the care taken in getting the dishes to your table.

Diner Review №39

Love this place always good food.

Diner Review №40

Diner Review №41

Great food, great service. Occasionally slow at lunch but worth the wait.

Diner Review №42

Stopped in for dinner before a soccer game at Anderson. The food portions were large and very tasty. I had the fried tofu and fresh rolls for appetizers which were very good and came with tasty sauce.

They seem to also do a large amount of take out orders but keep a focus on the people dining in.

Diner Review №43

I have eaten that spice from this location for over a decade now, and it's still just as good. I tried the honey duck this time, which was very good. You can never go wrong with the medium heat chicken pineapple fried rice. Chicken Sautee for an app and Thai tea.

Diner Review №44

Diner Review №45

Great Thai food, one of my favorite places to eat in Anderson.

Diner Review №46

The atmosphere is a little simple, but the service is great. The food was good even though I prefer my curry with more sauce.

Diner Review №47

Thai basil eggplant chicken is the best I've ever had. The wait is sometimes long because of staff shortage(?) but definitely worth the wait! The spring rolls are awesome too.

Diner Review №48

Diner Review №49

Amazing food and amazing service.

Diner Review №50

Food is excellent. They do a lot of to go orders which makes service inside slow but still worth the wait.

Diner Review №51

Very clean health food Excellent Thai food. I don't have to drive back to Atlanta for good Thai food!

Great spot - excellent food and service. The green curry and Panang curry are both fantastic.

Diner Review №56

Best Thai in Anderson

Diner Review №57

Just ordered take out from here for the first time. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. The dining area is small but clean. The gentleman who took our order was extremely nice and attentive. We waited less than 20 minutes for our food. We ordered the teriyaki chicken lunch entree, pad Thai lunch entree, and the red curry lunch entree. All three dishes were excellent. Good size portions and reasonable prices. We will definitely be returning!

Cashew chicken!

Diner Review №63

Our go-to place for Thai food! The staff are friendly and so helpful. It is family friendly and the food is DELICIOUS!! Our favorite is the Pineapple fried rice with chicken. Yummy!

Diner Review №64

Greatest Thai food I've ever had

Diner Review №65

First time eating Thai food, so I went with something familiar which was pad Thai. It smelled like wet dog which made it very hard to eat. The smell was nauseating. Thought I was crazy about the smell, but there was a customer near me and he got the same thing and couldn't even eat any of it. The waiter blamed it on a different cook. I understand if one person doesn't do the cooking all the time, but everyone should prepare it the same. It made for a bad experience and I'm not likely going to go back and will try someplace else.

Diner Review №69

Diner Review №70

Great atmosphere, good food, and kind people. It took a long time, but they were also very busy, with good reason.

Diner Review №71

Love this place now that they overcame their C rating but the service is beyond horrible. Told to go order would be ready in 25 minutes an hour later told it would be another 35 minutes. Love the food but there is no guessing how long it will take on any given day.

Diner Review №72

I ordered some noodles. Really good value for lunch. The server was really friendly and the place was very inviting. Lovely pit stop on my way through town! My friend said this is THE place to get Thai food in Anderson!

Diner Review №73

Diner Review №74

Wow I love this place. I've had the Pad Thai, the Pad Woon Sen and the garlic lover(?) that has broccoli and beef. The fried dumplings and the fried spring roll. I love all of it, the food here is incredible and everyone who works there is so kind and friendly. I've never sat down anywhere else in Anderson and felt as welcome as I do here. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, great food. 5/5. Cannot recommend enough.

Diner Review №79

Thai Spice is my favorite place for Thai food. My wife accidentally ordered from there one day, and it was the best.

Diner Review №80

It is so wonderful to get vegan food in Anderson.

Diner Review №81

This is by far the best Thai food in the south. I know it sounds crazy that it's in Anderson, but I have been all over the south east and have tried Thai food everywhere because it is my favorite food.
Another guy I met at the table next to me said he lived in Thailand for 4 years and he confirmed that Thai Spice is the closest thing you get to the real cuisine and that it is is far better than competitors anywhere else he's been in the U. S. This has been my favorite restaurant for the last 15 years. I would even drive up from Atlanta on weekends to see my family, but mostly to get Thai Spice.
Their staff is incredibly friendly and they know me and several other customers by name and what they like to order.
I highly recommend the massaman curry or Pad Thai if you are trying to be gluten free. Or the spicy linguini with shrimp or Thai Spice chicken is also phenomenal. I've never had a bad dish from here. Their spring rolls are also out of this world.

Diner Review №82

Diner Review №83

My wife and I found this place by accident one Sunday waiting for the library to open. The food is so good. We went back a week later to take the kids to get some Thai food. They loved the food. We will be going back for sure.

Diner Review №84

Diner Review №85

Absolutely amazing food. Can be a bit of a wait sometimes to get the food but is 100% worth it. Best Asian food in Anderson by a long shot. No where else compares.

Diner Review №86

I love Thai food and I am glad I found this place. The food is perfect.

The proprietor shares my love for extra spicy Thai food and gives me their roasted spice and chilli grind every time I go. I must also mention the advice on ingredients and other Thai cooking related tips I get from them. In other words, everyone is friendly and personable and treats me like family.

Diner Review №87

Always fresh and delicious!

Diner Review №88

Great food - best Thai poption in the area with an extensive menu. Great service. We ate in and didn’t have to wait for ages for them to get through the to-go orders. Food is a bit spicy so be careful how many stars you request!

Update: we returned the next week and I got the eggplant basil stir fry with fresh tofu and it was among the best Thai dishes I’ve had! The server was also super apologetic that my husband’s meal came out about 10 minutes before mine.

Diner Review №89

Excellent food

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

This was our first time trying Thai spice. A friend told us the food was delicious and we decided to go ahead and see it for ourselves.
My husband had the roasted duck and pineapple fried rice and I had the red curry with tofu and Tom Kha soup, everything was delightful and we did not want it to end! We highly recommend this place. A great option for Thai food in Anderson.

Diner Review №92

Diner Review №93

The best in town.

Diner Review №94

Probably my favorite Thai in Anderson. If you call and they’re busy, there’s good reason for it. Don’t let the location fool you, you gotta try this spot.

Diner Review №95

Do not eat on Sundays.

Diner Review №96

** Came back in. The food was even better than the first time. It was fresh, delicious and big portions. We got the vegetable soup, fresh rolls, Thai fried rice and chicken green curry. The service was fantastic and the server remembered me with my food restrictions. Will be back for sure.

The food is delicious, affordable and huge portions.
The vegan options are fantastic. We ordered the green curry, massamon, and fresh rolls.
**warning all sauces are made with fish and the curries are vegan.

Diner Review №97

Love this place. I'm happy that they started serving inside again. One of the main issues with our daughter moving back to the Charleston area is not having an opportunity to eat here as much as we did while she was attending AU.

Diner Review №98

The food was Phenomenal and the staff was very kind. I love to get Pad se ew when visiting new Thai restaurants, this one was VERY good. Be warned if you ask to spice up your dish- they know how to bring the heat!

Diner Review №99

The very best Massaman Curry with shrimp tonight. As always so delicious and we highly recommend.

Diner Review №100

The first time eating Thai, experience was beyond expectations 😋

Diner Review №101

Me and my sister got two appetizers and two entrees, and the food came very fast, and the employees were extremely kind and attentive. Our cups were kept full, and they knew the menu back to front. Definitely somewhere I will be going.

Diner Review №110

Service was fast and super friendly! Delicious food and great prices.

Diner Review №111

"Places that look simple, but are packed with cars? That's where the good food is."
Words of wisdom from my father that ring true at Thai Spice.
If you are nervous about trying Thai for the first time like I was, get the Spicey cashew nut with chicken. You can't go wrong with that.

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

Always delicious and always fresh

Diner Review №114

Love this place

Diner Review №115

You’ve got to get a Thai tea! Pad see ew is my go-to dish, but it’s all delicious.

Diner Review №116

This place had the absolute best fresh calamari I've had in upstate! Their service was great, their place was clean, excellent food all the way around! Great prices and portions! I will definitely be coming back!

Diner Review №117

I’m my opinion this is the best restaurant in Anderson, not just the best Thai or Asian, the best restaurant period. Incredibly consistent over years of eating here, never been disappointed, always so happy with my meal. Excellent service as well.

Diner Review №118

I can not recommend this place enough!! Green curry and fried rice👌🖤 shared food with a great friend I made and shared 4 things including calamari and walked away happily stuffed.

Diner Review №119

Dining room was a bit claustrophobic, if you’re sitting next to someone loud good luck having a conversation.

Food was pretty good and was a huge portion for the price but took a very long time - seems like take out is prioritized.

Diner Review №120

This place does a very good job with all their dishes. I was a little concerned that there were so few people at the restaurant but I'm glad I stayed.

Diner Review №121

They are my go to here in Anderson. They know what they are doing! Love the spring rolls!

Diner Review №122

Outstanding Thai food! Best for carry out as location is small and not super inviting.

Diner Review №123

They inky had one server but here was a champ. I ordered massaman curry AMAZING 8/10 and pad thai which was also very good 7/10 i also had the Thai tea which was very creamy and was a 7/10

Diner Review №128

No dine in, no business from those of us who are from out of town! So disappointing! Drive 30 minutes, Google maps said they were dine in, wouldn't answer the phone and Facebook hasn't been updated in 3 years....🤔

Called in on December 10, 2022 and dining room is open! Yay!!

Diner Review №129

Great customer service and good food

I recommend the honey glazed duck!!

Diner Review №134

Diner Review №135

Food was scrumptious. Big, healthy portions. Great flavor. There was a little wait for pickup, but that's expected on a Friday night (Service was great tho. Very friendly atmosphere). Best Thai in town!

Diner Review №136

Excellent Food!

Diner Review №137

I had the Thai spicy fried rice which tasted good. The portions for dinner are huge with less price. Only drawback is that they have take out only.

Diner Review №138

Delish.

Diner Review №140

Diner Review №141

Diner Review №142

I use to love this place. When we pulled up they had a sign in the window dinning room closed so we did not eat there. I wish they would have answered the phone so they could tell me dinning room was closed or at least put this information online so I would have known before I went all the way across town

Diner Review №143

Diner Review №144

The spicy linguine is awesome!

Diner Review №145

Diner Review №146

Diner Review №147

Take out only but great meal. They suggested a nearby park which was a wonderful place to eat

Diner Review №148

One of my FAVORITE Thai places. My coworkers found this place and it became a tradition.

Great food with lots of options. Specifically their spring rolls and cucumber salad.

[As someone with SPD, food can be hard for me and this is one of my "safe places" for eating.]

Diner Review №149

Delicious food!! Great service

Diner Review №150

Had my first meal from here today and it was excellent! Best Thai food I've had since Thailand 16 years ago. I had chicken Curry and the chef used my requested veggies, broccoli and onion. Lots of great chicken and veggies. I'm a small person and I ate it all! I'll be a regular here.

Diner Review №151

Diner Review №152

Good food, nicely priced. Visited twice since locating to the area. Have of yet to disappoint

Diner Review №153

Massaman Curry, Eggplant Basil, Green Curry, Spicy Veggie, Pad Kapow, with chicken are my go to items on their menu. During lunch hours, you get a spring roll with your order. At dinner, you have to order the spring rolls separately. The spring rolls are worth ordering, since they are probably the best in the Anderson/Greenville area!

Diner Review №154

Great service...very prompt and friendly. Dine in service is not an option at this time but you can order by phone or walk in for takeout orders. Prices are moderate and there is a great variety of choices on the menu. You can order items spicy or "normal," which can still be spicy.

Diner Review №155

Very good food!

Diner Review №156

This was my first time experiencing Thai food. The staff was extremely friendly and accurate in helping me pick out the best food. Actually, my next 8 meals to try! I love this place, they never disappoint, and every meal gets better and more exciting!

Great place and the owner was very friendly. (UberEats Driver)

Diner Review №168

Thai Spice remains on top as the best Thai place ever!!! Ms. Dan and her amazing staff never fail when it comes to delivering consistent phenomenal tasting food. I’ve been a customer for over a decade and the deliciousness that drew me there keeps me there!! All items are great but I keep coming home to the Green Curry with chicken!!

Diner Review №169

Best thai food in the Upstate! Awesome service and the chef is amazing

Diner Review №170

I’ve frequented many Thai restaurants in the upstate. I’m consistently left with the impression that Thai Spice is by far the best. I’m never dissatisfied, and the portions are always generous. Thai Spice has grown to be a favorite of mine.

Diner Review №171

I would definitely have to say this has some delicious Tai food. I do wish the reasturant was a little more well kept but hey I understand the struggle. But as far as food goes...the Panang Curry is delicious and would definitely recommend.

Diner Review №172

Don’t be fooled by rundown looks, this is a gem, awesome food. They are pretty busy even with takeouts nowadays.

Diner Review №180

Lovely food, and plenty of it!! I'll be eating again the next day on these noodles.

Diner Review №181

New to the area and enjoyed this place a couple of times already. The pad thai, pineapple fried rice, soup, thai tea, and crispy rolls are all delicious. I will say allow some extra time for pick up. Our food was ready at least 10 minutes later than expected on both occasions. It was worth the wait though.

Diner Review №182

Good Eats 👍

Diner Review №183

The lettuce was tough and the dressing to fishy

Diner Review №184

Always fantastic food. Not too expensive, with a huge portion.

Diner Review №185

I ordered the Pad Thai with tofu because I have had it many times before but at various Thai Restaurants not located in So Carolina. I thought I would try Thai Spice because I love Thai food. However, I didn't like it. I didnt even like their Thai Iced Tea!! Terrible experience for me. I wont be back.

Diner Review №186

Great Thai food! Wait time was a little long but absolutely worth the wait! We will be eating here again!
