Mei Thai Restaurant & Sushi Bar

Please stay away from this place. They advertise offering sushi, thai, etc. When I arrived myself and a coworker intended on ordering sushi. However we were informed that they did not offer sushi, this was a Tuesday. I ordered the Num Tok which was unappetizing and overpriced. I ended up wasting most of the food. I also requested rice which was a additional cost.
Lastly, I was not pleased with the service. I will not be returning!

We have been coming here for years. It is one of our monthly restaurants. So glad that we found this place. Highly recommended to anyone that loves Thai food.

This is the best Thai food I have found in Charleston! Some of the reviews here alarmed me, the comments about the unfriendly or rude wait staff are what I found alarming. I have never had an lack of courtesy from the staff here. After several visits they did become a bit warmer, I don’t eat out to make friends with the servers anyway. Even in the busiest hours, they have always been polite and attentive. For the people who said their food wasn’t spicy enough, you didn’t make it clear to your server. If you want native thai hot, order it that way! If you want it spicer, just tell them make it 911. You will not be disappointed! The portions are large, either at lunch or dinner, and the prices are good. I am not a sushi fan, but I have noticed on my many visits here that some people ONLY order sushi. To each his own.

I kept seeing this place on my way to the gym and deciding to give it a try tonight.
Wow! I walked in and already had my doubts. I ordered the chicken pad see ew and it was suprisngly delicious! I love the peanut element.
Will definately return!

Always a great stop in for asian/​Thai cuisine. Staff is always super nice and helpful, and a great atmosphere!

We came in one evening and grabbed some dinner. I had the Number 42 Gai Pad Phed. The dish is stir-​fried chicken in red curry and vegetables served with a side of white rice. I was given a healthy portion, so much that I had left overs. The curry sauce had a sweet and spicy taste. The rice tasted fresh and was fluffy. However, not the best Thai food that I have had; It just didn’t make my tastebuds sing.
This restaurant is located at the end of a strip mall. The décor in the interior was lacking. The service was also not the best as our server was not very friendly.
Final Thoughts:
I’d recommend this place strictly for take out purposes because of the prices and portion.

The food was great! But the waitress was alarmingly rude. I was very surprised with her attitude.
But besides that I would go back because the food was very tasty!

Ownership changed about awhile back. The food is still fabulous. The service has improved if that was even possible. My family eats here once or twice a month. Worth a try. I love the Red and Green Curry. The Vietnamese Spring rolls are awesome too. We often drop in for the Sushi Lunch specials during the week.

Yum Yum Yum.
I always avoided this place due to the location, but I have been a couple of times and I am so happy I finally tried it. The atmosphere is a bit weird, but the service is always pretty great and they are always busy! People love it.
The portions are large, reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. The pad thai is one of my favorite things to order. They do offer sushi as well, which I’ve had a few times and have enjoyed. They have lunch specials, which is always a solid option in my book for any establishment. They food comes out quick, hot/​cold and fresh.
I would recommend this location for anyone looking for thai food in North Charleston.

Been at this restaurant numerous times and every time I come here, food is always good. I’ve had their Pad Thai, fried rice, shrimp & chicken curry, fried & fresh egg rolls, etc. I recommend this place if you’re ever in the area. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

So… first of all when you google this place it tells you they make Cambodian food. So I was all excited for some cambodian food and then I got there and there wasn’t any.
Then they also advertise Vietnamese food. Some spring rolls and noodles isnt really all what Vietnamese food has to offer.
Lastly their thai food. Nothing on the menu was unique but i ordered the papaya salad. It looked like slop on a plate. Possibly pre package out of a bin like sea weed salad is typically from.
Their sushi was ok. Nothing inventive but the best roll they had was the caterpillar.
Service was not great. Three people asked us what we want to drink but nobody ever brought it. Lastly they wouldn’t take the time to provide recommendations. Instead they said for us to look at the menu.

Pretty solid lunch spot. The Thai place in Summerville is REALLY good and Mei Thai is a notch below that, which is why I gave it 3 stars. I’ve only eaten lunch there but both times everyone was generally pleased with their options.
The last time I had lunch there, I also ordered their roll that was similar to what I consider a summer roll but it was called Vietnamese Fresh Spring Roll. It was decent but I wouldn’t order it again from Mei Thai. The pork was kinda odd and the rice paper was chewier than I’ve had before at other establishments.
The food always has good size portions and I’ve never had any serious complaints about the quality. Haven’t had a standout dish yet but I’ll definitely return to try other options and I’m curious to try their sushi too. Since they’re down the road from my house, I might see how they handle their to-​go orders.

I only ordered out once, and I got the Chicken Satay, which was prepared as one would think. Seasoned and grilled to perfection. The side of cucumber salad was excellent, along with the peanut sauce.
I had the Spicy Basil with chicken, and it was excellent. Portions are huge, almost enough for two. Based on my one visit for takeout, I would return in a heartbeat.
