Love this family! Best Thai in town!

Diner Review №2

Didn't get to go inside. I ordered over the phone and I asked for hot sauce & soy sauce on the side. The man on the phone chuckled and told me he would give me hot sauce but not soy. I knew he was joking so I laughed. When I picked the food up at the restaurant, he smiled and waved a packet of soy sauce at me and told me he would give it to me but not to put it on the plate.

I always taste before adding soy, salt, pepper, etc. And so far every place I have ever order from has not used enough soy sauce for my liking. However, this particular dish needed absolutely nothing extra and I understood what he meant about me not putting any on my plate. He must be the chef as well and he knew his food didn't need any extra soy or salt!

Diner Review №9

I've been getting Pad Thai from here for 15 yrs!! I've recently been on a pad thai quest and have had some from all over town. Thai Thai is still my fav!

Diner Review №10

Pad Thai is to die for!

Highly recommend for Thai food lovers

Diner Review №11

This business should close. It’s obvious the owners do not care to ever open the restaurant to the public as it’s pick up only since Covid. Pre Covid it was decent… owners are nice to some people and others they are very rude. Mams and Thai pepper are much better.

Diner Review №12

my family loves Thai Thai! Very sweet owners and delicious food.

Diner Review №13

By far the best Thai food in Lubbock, Texas

Diner Review №14

chicken noodle soup was delicious.

Diner Review №15

Best Thai food in the city

Diner Review №16

This is a drive thru business that doesn't have any menu posted on the outside or readily available online

Diner Review №17

Diner Review №18

We made a big takeout order, $100+, every single person had stomach issues the next 24 hours.
Someone mentioned this place changed after the original owner was no longer around. I had never been here, I hope it was much better back then. I will not return. Chicken fried rice has more onions than rice and the chicken was so dry! I couldn't believe all the chatter I've heard about this place. Truly dissapointed!!

Diner Review №19

Ben eating there more than 30 years excellent food and service. Very nice people.

Diner Review №22

Been coming here for years. The food is delicious and speaks for itself and the people that work here seem so genuine and kind. The young man who served my food today was so joyful, it made me smile. Today I got the #30 Artar. Sooo good!

been customer for 20 years, quality is getting lower, price is getting higher & often mess up my orders. it's time for me to find a new Thai place in town

Diner Review №27

It’s the only Thai place that I eat at.

Diner Review №28

Place is absolutely phenomenal, it's a shame they're never open when I'm in town.

Diner Review №29

Diner Review №30

I am a big Thai food fan. I have eaten Thai food in at least 100 Thai restaurants across the US and the world. This was the worst tasting Thai food (not good recipe and low quality ingredients) They only had takeout so I was not able to let them know personally.

Diner Review №31

Diner Review №32

I have been going here for 30 years dating back to a location I believe was on Quaker near 50th.... They have been excellent that long

Diner Review №33

Diner Review №34

Diner Review №35

I called to ask if there is dine in. Someone who does not know English picked up and told yes. But when I went they told only window pick up

Diner Review №36

Best Thai!

Diner Review №37

Have been coming here when in Lubbock for over 10 years. Food is great tasting as always, but they are now doing drive in pickup only which is not a problem except that they take phone off hook when a little busy. If you can't get thru be prepared to wait 30 plus minutes after you put in your order at the drive in window.

Diner Review №38

Okay. If you are craving for Thai food, go ahead and give it a try. I would not say the best thai fooe nor is it the worst. About average. Is it the best in Lubbock ront know yet...may be its the best yiu grt in Lubbock.

Diner Review №39

Love this place! The owner is awesome and the food even better!!!

Diner Review №40

Had khow soi in Thailand and was disappointed, this is better.

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

This is my daughters favorite place to go. They have good food at decent prices. The only thing is since the pandemic its hard to find a time they are open. We have tried going there multiple times and they always seem to be closed.

Diner Review №43

The Drunken Noodles are where it’s at!

Right now they’re only doing window or call ahead ordering. I had shown up and placed my order at the window. The gentleman who greeted me was kind enough to talk to me more about the food I ordered and make sure I knew it was spicey In about 10 mins my food was ready and drove home. When I unboxed the food was hot , fresh and flavorful. I’ll definitely go back!

Diner Review №44

We literally waited in line for 45 minutes to order. Hire more people to take orders, this is a terribly ran restaurant.
Won’t let you order the Pad Thai without bean sprouts! Won’t be back.

Diner Review №45

You won't be disappointed, the favor is on point and every item I have pick has hit the spot. The portion sizes are a little small though.

Diner Review №46

I love the food, always amazing!

Diner Review №47

Numbers 17 & 37 are my go to. Best spicy beef noodle soup I've ever had. Number 37 is a spicy green curry with coconut milk, chicken and shrimp. Best Thai in town!

Diner Review №48

I was disappointed, after being so excited to go. The food lacked flavor.

Diner Review №49

Tasty! 🍲

Diner Review №50

Yesterday I wanted to try something different so I went to thai thai , it was my first time being there and everything was delicious. The man was friendly and efficient. I will definitely go again. I got the genghis khan beef and the spicy beef noodles

Diner Review №51

Very small fried spring roll is $2. only 3 bites and they are not home made. should be $2 for an order of 3 of them. A pad thai and 6 tiny spring rolls was $24......

The Pad Thai is amazing, wish we didn't live 6 hours away

Diner Review №72

Best Thai in Lubbock!

I love Thai. I seldom drive by a Thai restaurant without trying it. I have to say, there is some really good and unfortunately some really bad Thai restaurants in Texas. It is crazy how varied they are. But Thai Thai gets it right. I have eaten here a few dozen times and I will eat here every chance I get.

Try number 17 spicy. The best beef noodle soup in Texas, maybe the world!

Diner Review №73

Diner Review №74

Love the food. I will leave and try something else but always come back. Delicious.

Diner Review №75

I got dishes #37 and #40 and the food was excellent! I got two dishes in case one was disappointing and I turned out to have extra for the next day. The service was drive-through only and the guy worked the counter seemed a bit stressed. I would recommend calling ahead to put in your order otherwise you might be waiting a while. Honestly the food hit the spot and I would highly recommend this place for those who are in the mood for Thai food.

Diner Review №76

Diner Review №77

The food is delicious, definitely my favorite Thai food place in town!

Diner Review №78

Best curry in town great owner great foodb

Diner Review №79

I like this affordable delicious Thai place ! The only thing that went wrong was when they put the hot wonton soup in a styrofoam cup, it will be served as "melted cup wonton soup" cuz the cup cover melted due to hot Temperature. Overall it's a great customer service and a very reasonable price. Try the #34 chicken coconut soup #9 and #13 wonton soup

Diner Review №80

Diner Review №81

This place is absolutely incredible. The food is great along with the service. The owners are you feel like family.

Diner Review №84

The food was excellent. Drive through only, which was fine. Employees wore masks, and even asked if we wanted to open our own bottles, wiped the bottle opener with a sanitized wipe, and handed us the opener to use in the car. We love Thai Thai! Come support a clean and responsible restaurant!

Diner Review №85

This is my favorite Thai place in Lubbock. The Khao Soi with chicken is to die for! The Pad Thai is a pretty solid choice as well. I got the Lad Na once and was not overly impressed, but it might have just been an off day. The Khao Soi has never disappointed and is now my go-to dish here.

Diner Review №88

My husband and I have been loyal customers at another local Thai restaurant for years. However, at some point, you just get fed up with the phone being off the hook! Called this hidden gem and they answered of the first ring! The food was DELICIOUS! We will definitely be back!!

Diner Review №89

One of my favorite restaurants ever, hands down. Everything is fresh, delicious, and very satisfying! Thai Thai is addicting!

Diner Review №90

We tried out Thai Thai on a bit of a whim, craving Thai food and not being able to get through over the phone to another of the local Thai restaurants. We had trouble finding a readable, accurate menu online (facebook page was our best bet, but small blurry print made things difficult still). Even so, we got the Pad Kee Mao with pork, the Tom Ka Kai (chicken), and the Panang Curry with beef. All were very delicious--the Tom Ka Kai would only be enjoyable if you like the strong taste of lemongrass. But you could absolutely tell that everything was fresh, homemade, and authentic. We did pick-up, everything was ready in the time they said it would be, and very delicious. It satisfied our craving for Thai food, and we will be back. Portions are not as big as some places we've been, but for the price it seemed equitable.

Diner Review №91

Simply the very best Thai food available in Lubbock. Authentic Thai food. I had the Artar and Thai Thai with Vietnamese coffee. The ingredients are fresh and crisp as are the flavors. They offer rice paper spring rolls ( not fried) on Sunday's only, these are a real treat dipped in peanut sauce. I try to try something new when I eat here but it's hard not to order the last great dish. I haven't found a bad one yet. If you want to try authentic Thai food this is the place to come.

Diner Review №92

Thai Thai has some of the best Thai food you can find in Lubbock.

A wonderful family-run local business offering some of the best Thai food and without a doubt, the best Thai curry in Lubbock.

I love their food.

Diner Review №112

This is the best Thai food restaurant in Lubbock! One of my favorite places to eat!!!

Diner Review №113

Flavorful food and helpful with gluten free options, but no gluten free menu. Go early as they only have one register and you order at the counter so the line moves slowly.

Diner Review №114

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

Not the cleanest place to eat, but man the foooooodddd is wow!😋

Diner Review №117

I'm not real adventurous but I really enjoy the thai fried rice. Either chicken or combo and gotta order it hot. Always a great place but come early at lunch to avoid a long line.

Diner Review №118

Diner Review №119

This place will always be my favorite Lubbock restaurant. I remember when they moved from their tiny shop to their bigger building on 50th and slide. I got to eat there recently while visiting town, and was so happy to see familiar faces, and grateful that this family owned restaurant continues to share their amazing food with us!!

Diner Review №120

The food amazing and great service.

Diner Review №121

This place has the best thai food in town. I like it more than the other 2 or 3 options. Order the put thai medium spice if you like a little kick. The genghis kahn beef is also delicious and comes with a small but potent Chile sauce. Pretty good thai teas. Best dessert is mango sticky fried rice.

Amazing Thai food! A Lubbock staple

Diner Review №133

Haven't posted a review in a while but I definitely will start again, everything about this place is good, the food, the setting, the people, I got the pad thai basically which had it's own name and that was a 10/10 choice. I definitely recommend to both locals and tourists who want a more authentic thai experience.

Diner Review №134

Decent place I'll be going back

Best Thai food in the city.

Diner Review №139

Wow. Lubbock, TX has a hidden gem for Thai food. This place is authentic and is not the American version of Thai food. You won't find a red or green curry here... Because this doesn't exist in traditional Thai food.

I ordered the wontons called Thai Thai. They were good.

I then ordered a coconut chicken soup and it was delicious.

Do yourself a favor and try this place. You won't be disappointed. Also, they have a garden outside and they grow their own food that they use. Cool concept.

Diner Review №140

Always excellent food! I order the coconut soup. The food arrives fresh, hot, and delicious! I have NEVER had a bad experience here with the food or the service.

Diner Review №141

Diner Review №154

Diner Review №155

Staff had no personality, the food was bland and my wife had something that looked like a bug in her rice. I am not a local, but I won’t ever be back. I’d rather go to a Panda Express.

The food here is good, but portions are small. I'll eat my entire order of pad Thai in one sitting and still not be totally full. The line is insanely long at lunch and on Sunday after church lets out.
