Taste of Thailand Restaurant

Great little place tucked away in a shopping center. I came her because of the Unilocal reviews. I would like to try a few other dishes before I upgrade to 5 stars. My partner and I both had the Panang with beef. We also tried the coconut ice cream with sticky rice and while I found the ice cream to be too sweet, my partner loved it. The sticky rice wasn’t as sweet which paired well with the ice cream and helped cut the sweet. The one thing that really stood out to me was just how clean this place was. We were under the impression it was brand new but they’ve been there for several years. Great experience! Can’t wait to go back.

So much food! Even the soup portions are huge! Had the Thai egg rolls-​yum! Love the dipping sauce.
Second visit there today! As good as we remembered. Split the Pad Thai –chicken between two adults, we had leftovers still!
No specific kids menu but they can make a plain steamed or grilled chicken for any picky eater. Combine that with plain noodles or rice and mission accomplished.
Located in small shopping center, relaxed atmosphere.

I was glad I found this restaurant. I wanted Thai food desperately after moving to San Antonio. Wandered in around lunch time and was greeted with a smile. Everyone was very friendly. Fortunately it wasn’t very busy. I ordered the Red Curry (chicken) and Green Curry (shrimp) for my wife and I. We really enjoyed it. Ours was mild in the «heat» department mainly because my wife is a cry baby. But I’ll definitely be going for the Thai hot red curry my next visit.

Best Thai food near potranco! It is our go to for Thai food on our side of town. The «Keemow» and «woonsen» are the best. They even have a simple chicken and rice soup that our kids love. Small place, so it can get crowded, but we go early so they are normally able to accommodate my family of 6 (4 kids, 3 under 4) no problem.
We have done dine in and to go… only had a problem once (overcooked noodles) and it was quickly remedied with a phone call.

My mom and I came here for lunch today and there were a few people eating lunch alone. When we walked in there wasn’t any staff behind the counter so we asked the people eating and they said just to sit anywhere. The restaurant is not very big and has some sort of loud machine in the kitchen that sounds like a washing machine (an industrial dishwasher perhaps?), however, it is clean and has a wide variety of Thai and Chinese dishes on the menu. A few minutes after sitting down we were greeted by the server. He was very friendly, answered our questions about the menu and chatted with us about our experiences with other Asian restaurants in town. My mom ordered the pad woon sen lunch special and I had the pad thai one. The lunch special comes with iced tea, soup and your choice of a spring roll or eggroll. The food came out in a reasonable time and was a generous portion for lunch. My mom liked her pad woon sen and commented that it was stir-​fried with minimal oil, which is nice. The pad thai is quite sweet and has more tofu than chicken, but the noodles were cooked perfectly and I like that they give you fresh bean sprouts on the side. When I told my comments to the server he offered to make me something else right away, which I declined, but I appreciate his customer service. For dessert we shared coconut ice cream with sticky rice and crushed peanuts. It was tasty but the ratio of ice cream to sticky rice seemed off (we both agreed that two scoops of ice cream instead of would have been better). A-​okay and not bad for lunch, however, based on our experience I still favor other restaurants in the city for Thai food.

This is the best thai food in San Antonio as far as I am concerned… Unfortunately this statement is more of knock on the Thai food in general in San Antonio than a compliment. I feel the food at this place is pretty good but of course if you are from the Los Angeles Area (like myself) then you may be disappointed. So if you are in the mood for Thai food in San Antonio I suggest this place over the rest of the options which are pretty much all terrible.

I ordered chicken pad thai and green curry To go. I’m from out of town and didn’t know of any good Thai restaurants over by me. The other ones that I’ve been to are about 45 mins away from here. So based on this restaurants review, I decided to get something from here. I came home and opened my boxes to old looking rice and their pad Thai had no flavor and the noodles were very dry… So disappointed and such a waste of money…
On the bright note their green curry was pretty tasty and had tons of bamboo, veggies, and chicken.

Worst tasting Thai food ever! Ordered a carry out of vegetable & chicken fried rice & it sucked big time! Ended up trashing the whole thing after barely tasting it! Waste of your time & money totally! This surely is not a place for people who are particular about the taste of their food.

We had a craving for thai food and this was just a few miles from our hotel. This is a smaller restaurant and the customer service was good. For an appetizer we ordered the chicken satay ($ 7.50) .it was tasty but just 5 skewers with peanut sauce and a cucumber type of salad. We ordered Pad see Ew with beef medium hot and it was tasty. but it was not spicy at all. should have orders it spicy. The cashew chicken, served with streamed white rice was okay, but nothing to rave about.

I can’t trust y’all anymore… and what I mean by that are you Unilocalers… whomever gave this place a 4 ½ star?!? No business… this place was dead like dead as it could be on a Saturday night at 5pm. we were the only people there… maybe one person picked up To-go…not a good sign. anyways I was relying on Unilocal… the waiter Joe I believe was nice. and talkative… a lot. and I mean A LOT. He just kept talking to us the WHOLE time, I get it we are nice he is nice was probably bored out of his mind but really? It was annoying. anyway onto the food… ordered the Fried Spring Rolls and Red Curry. I wanted Tom Kai (Coconut Soup) however they only had large… anyways. The rolls were small, fresh and good. I was happy with them. The Red Curry was where the TWO stars come in, I would have given this dish a THREE star however the quality of meat was poor (beef and the chicken) that sucks because it’s not cheap so why use poor quality of meats? Bummer. then I had to add salt to my red curry. who adds salt to anything unless it is bland and lacking flavor. not happy… the entrée was a good amount including veggies and it came out piping hot and fresh, however it doesn’t really make up for flavor. Won’t be coming here again. Onto the next place… Bangkok 54 is still my #1 contender, call me bias.whateves.I know what good food should taste like…
PS: A little advice to my Unilocalers please rate accordingly each dish, experience, service and WHY. this will save me the trouble of trying new places that totally suck. Thank ya much :-)

Very nice and quiet getaway from all the fast food along Potranco. It’s a small, quaint gem of a restaurant in Westover Hills. I had the pad Thai which was wonderful and the appetizer soup was just great. I’m definitely visiting this place again and again …

We are in SA because our son is in the hospital. This is our second time to eat here this week. We ordered summer rolls. They were by far the best summer rolls I have ever eaten. My husband had the fish which they usually serve only on weekends. Lucky for us they were serving it tonight. It was beyond delicious, the sauce was served on the side. He ordered red curry sauce on the side. I preferred the sauce that came with it. I ordered seafood in red curry sauce. It was delicate and tasty. The waitress is the owner’s sister, she is delightful and friendly. She recommended our entrée’s tonight and we were not disappointed. We finished our meal with sticky rice and homemade coconut ice cream. We are extremely full.

This restaurant was delicious! We had two of their specials (which I think are only served on Fri & Sat) duck with curry sauce and the other was tilapia (deep fried so it was crispy on the outside and super moist and tender on the inside).
I would have given it 5 stars, but gave it 4 stars because of two small things. 1) We weren’t told the price of the specials when we ordered and they weren’t on a menu or a sign anywhere (the prices were reasonable so it ended up not being an issue). 2) I wasn’t told there was heavy cilantro as seasoning on the tilapia (I strongly dislike the taste of cilantro). However, it worked out okay because when I flipped the fish over to cut the other side, it didn’t have any cilantro so I ate from that side and LOVED it! I shared it with my husband and he liked the cilantro so there was none wasted. And we were both happy.
The portion sizes are very generous and the quality + taste + presentation of the food was fantastic. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They were excited about the food they prepare which was obvious and such a refreshing experience.
We will go back for certain. I can see this being a place we visit regularly.

Really great Thai spring rolls, delicious. Waitress was very polite and attentive. Had the Chicken Lad Na. Didn’t know it was a soup but it was good. My boyfriend ordered the Chicken Pad See Ew which was the same dish sans soup. Would have preferred that simply because it was too hot for soup. Not their fault though, I’ll come back and next time ask more about the dish.

Good quantity and super delicious get take out pad tai couple times. Love the flavors.
Right by my house and I am happy it is!

Everything was delicious! The service was friendly and fast. We really enjoyed the different types of curries. We had never tried Thai egg rolls or the Mango/​sticky rice. We plan on eating here again soon. Loved it.

Ordered pad kapow moo (pork stir fried with basil and chili peppers). Asked for it Thai style and that’s exactly what I got. I used to live in Thailand so I know authentic Thai food. I was very impressed with this dish. I’ll try another dish next time and update my review.

The restaurant Is really small and seats are limited. For appetizer I got pork satay it was served with peanut sauce and a small cucumber salad it was cooked perfectly I tried something different usually ill eat Tom Kha or Pad Thai. I like the taste of coconut milk so I thought I would try curry it was a red curry with bell pepper. I absolutely loved it I will be getting it again it was kinda smoky also you can choose your protein chicken pork tofu and I think shrimp there was also a Chinese selection on the lunch menu it was a good price For an entrée a soup and a tea I think like 8 bucks. They had a little credit card machine problem with the lady in front of me but my card worked just fine. I deff will be going back to try Tomkhai Thank you and I hope this helps

Overall this Thai restaurant is fairly well, the menu has been simplified from other visits but the food is still great.
Atmosphere is relaxed, clean, and well organized, considering the space available inside. The prices were reasonable and the service was on point.
Food was tasty. If you’re around the area, my recommendations to anyone that wants some thai for a quick lunch or dinner.

Skip Yum Thai & come here! It’s just been renovated, super clean inside. The menu was redone as well, you can find Thai, Chinese, and Japanese items.
Lunch plates are a decent portion so I’m imaging dinner plates to be filling. Lunch pad Thai came with egg rolls or spring rolls & a bowl of soup = $ 7. Love the price!
Our server was the nicest guy ever — he worked at the old place for 2 weeks and the owner decided to sell… Nice of the new owner to keep the employees. He was attentive and even did his best to occupy my friends son who was having a bad day (almost 1 yr old, poor guy was teething and just not wanting to fall asleep, lol).
The food was yummy — big pieces of chicken in pad Thai… I haven’t had Thai food in a while because I couldn’t find a local place to try, safe to say I’ve found our go to!
There are maybe a dozen tables but it’s not well known yet so it didn’t get packed at lunch.
They do not deliver but you can order take out.
