Thai Kitchen

Great food though a slightly more expensive. The owners are perfect opposites, the old man is nice and friendly while the old lady who runs the place acts as though shes very annoyed by some customers and is often rude. Wouldn‘t go there if it weren‘t for their food.

I don‘t understand how this place is in the top 3?
It is way way too over priced.
I wont waste my time with a long review on this dump. Bottom line is if you don‘t care about price, quality, and portion size then eat here you wont know the difference anyway.

great food on reasonable price. But it‘s wierd that it doesn‘t serve the soup on dinner.

Consider this. When one eats at Thai Kitchen for lunch, a plate is served with rice and dish on the same plate. A cup of soup is given to all (non-vegetarian), unless you say otherwise, at which time a few pieces of lettuce forms a salad, and there is your lunch. If you go a few hours later, after the lunch period, your plate is filled with your dish, and the rice is on an additional plate. So, you are in essence receiving double the food. And here is the kicker: at least when I have gone, the prices have been the same. Less food, same price. Now, I have not ordered from the "lunch" menu. And while the prices seem reasonable, you must ask reasonable to what? Thai Kitchen is quickly approaching The Spice in price. Raising prices, while ripping off the lunch crowd? A fine way to conduct business.

The best quick Thai restaurant around. Food is very good and service is quick.

while the menu has "vegetarian options"... they are NOT vegetarian. Please beware. The curries/stir fried dishes use either fish sauce or oyster sauce. And the sauces are from packages-so they can‘t take it out.

The family that owns Thai Kitchen is extremely friendly and always make us feel welcome. My wife and I eat here every week. Their food is amazing and is very reasonably priced. I don‘t know what we would do without a place this terrific to get our weekly fix of Thai curry!!!

We eat here weekly. Amazing food and friendly service. Very reasonable priced too.

This place has never disappointed us and we have been eating here since it opened!! Definitely a 5 - star place, as all the reviews here show, despite the overall rating being 3 stars for some odd reason!!!

Love this place. All curry dishes are amazing.

I eat at thai kitchen many times . The taste is great ! I love this place I love Thai kitchen .

Amazing food, great service, reasonable prices. Love it. Best in Ames by far. I would highly reccomend it to anyone who likes thai food. The Pad See Eil is incredible.

Awesome food with inexpensive price!!!!!
Recommended!!!

Awesome Thai food at reasonable prices. We order food to go at least once a week and love it.

Best overall place to eat in Ames. Unbelievable Thai food. Best I‘ve ever had hands down. I recommend anything I‘ve had on their menu, but my personal fav is yellow curry, fried rice with pork. Yum!

I have went there a number of times and I‘m always happy with the food and service. Zero negitives. Everyone should try this place!

Thai Kitchen is a quaint, charming, authentic Thai restaurant that is winning my heart more and more each time I eat there. The decor is very cafeteria-like, but the food is wonderful, the prices quite reasonable and the staff is very nice. They‘ve got me hooked!

Fantastic Thai food right in the heart of Ames. The soups are amazing.

I‘m always craving their panang curry chicken.

I love hole in the wall restaurants. Thai Kitchen has wonderful food and the owners are always so nice to our kids. When I visited Ames in 2003 trying to decide if we should move here, I ate at Thai Kitchen. It was one of those positive marks in favor or Ames. The Pad Ka Prow with beef is great!

Phad Thai, yes, go there, order it, eat it.

I love this place good foods and nice people I love pad thai and curry .

Ames‘ original Thai restaurant. One of my favorite places to stop and eat in Ames. A lot less upscale or trendy than Spice in decor the food here meets or often exceeds what you will get downtown for less money.

good place with excellent foods I eat there almost every week I love noodle no.3 and fried banana!

My favorite restaurant in Ames. I eat there every week and sometimes twice a week...and I don‘t live in Ames. The decor is nothing fancy but the food is outstanding and an excellent value. I love lunch special #7 and get it almost every time I‘m there. The staff is very friendly and greets me with a smile every time I‘m there.

One of the best Asian places in Ames. Good food at good prices! one of our favorite places to eat

good curry and pad thai I love the chicken wing that have some vegetable inside too .

One of my top three favorite places to eat in Ames (and I eat in restaurants ALOT haha). Good prices, adorable staff, clean, DELICIOUS. I usually get the Masumum(sp?) shrimp curry or pad thai with duck. Free hot tea, something you don‘t get everywhere. Go here! You‘ll love it!!!

Just visited Thai Kitchen for the first time this last weekend. The Curry Chicken is very good. If you have never eaten Thai food, just go and try it out, you won‘t be sorry. The restaurant is plainly decorated, no white table cloths here. The food is the star. Entries are $6-$7.

Is so delicious, but be carefull because some plates are very very hot.

i love this place good food for everyone !

I eat at Thai kitchen almost everyday and they know exactly my favorite dishes I love this place !

An excellent place to eat

I love this place the food so good and the price is so amazing!

I had never had Thai food until Thai Kitchen. The wait staff was very friendly, the service was very quick, the price was reasonable, and the portion was just right. The food was very flavorful and was different, but very good. I am for sure going back, and you should try the place too.

I eat there several times and I love the way it makes me feeling like eating at home .The food are great in taste and worth for try the new things .I love it !

I love the food and the staff are so friendly and for its fair price

I eat here on a regular basis and have NEVER been disappointed. I always get Tom Yum Kai and Bar-B-Q chicken with sweet cucumber sauce. Wonderful flavor all the time.

Best food in Ames go for the Thai Brazed Chicken

Pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for. The food is delicious, and if you‘ve gotta have something hot enough to burn your tongue off, this is the place. They do have milder dishes for the faint of heart, of course. Their deserts are all awesome, especially the fried bananas and the custard with sweet sticky rice.

Great food at a reasonable price! Wonderful staff! I eat there at least once a week!

Good food, but not the best Thai I‘ve ever had. The portions are a little small compared to the price and dishes are not consistent in the general make up of ingredients (e.g. one slice of potato in a curry). I will go back, but will continue to miss my favorite Thai restaurants in other parts of the country. If you are starving, no worries, your food will come in a flash.

I love it. Very cheap for very good food. Best Thai restuarant I‘ve been to.

Absolutely fantastic! Very reasonable prices, very friendly people, excellent food. I‘ve been to a lot of other Thai places around the country, and this is my favorite. Their Pad Thai in particular is the best I‘ve ever had. I‘ve liked everything I‘ve tried there, though, so you really can‘t go wrong. We should count ourselves lucky to have such a good Thai restaurant right here in Ames!

Far too expensive for what you get.

i loved the thai kitchen when i lived in ames. since leaving, i have spent a good chunk of time in thailand. and as far as i can taste, thai kitchen has a lot of the dishes right on. go there. and feast. feast for cheap.

This place is alright if your comparing it to anything else in Ames. But for the people who have been out in the real world you‘ll probably agree that thai kitchen would be at the bottom of the list. If you don‘t you probably have no clue what thai food is.

Awesome place. Very Friendly. Very Fast Service. I LOVE their curries.

I desire more of their curry.... more thai spices... should be open 24/7... yes, that would be heaven. -JWB

This place is pretty good as far as ethnic food is considered in Ames. Overall it is just okay. The service is very fast and the prices are fair but the food does not match up to other Thai restaraunts I‘ve been to. But definitely better than regular old chinese food.

I LOVE this place! To be honest, I‘ve never ordered anything but the salmon- it‘s so wonderful I just can‘t bring myself to order anything else. My sister loves the pad thai though. Don‘t forget to order a Thai iced tea or green tea ice cream to take on your way out!

this place is unbelievable...ames should be so proud of having this restaurant....if you haven‘t been there, go now!!! pad thai is a great dish to start...thai kitchen destroys any other places to eat in ames...

I live in Chicago (where they have plenty of thai restaurants) and I‘m amazed at the type of Thai food that‘s here in Ames. High quality food, good prices, and very tasty. This is the bar where I compare every Thai restaurant to. Everytime I visit my brother, I hit TK up alot. I‘ve had alot of Thai food before, and this place takes the cake. The owner is orginally from San Fran and moved to Iowa to start this up, glad he did it!
