Taste of Thai — Restaurant in Alabama

Had a serious craving for authentic Asian food and came here on a whim. I’m so glad I did!!! I think the food cured my depression. The flavors are amazing; I ordered the Thai tea, Shrimp Pad see Ew, spring rolls, crab and cheese wontons.

Thai Tea - THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUTTT!!! Authentic tasting Thai tea. No powdered boba tea style tea. This tasted like it was brewed with love with the most amazing cream/milk to tea ratio. I had to stop myself from ordering another one! If you’ve never had Thai tea before, it is life changing and this is where you should get it.

Shrimp Pad See Ew - flat rice noodles, broccoli, baby bok choy, carrots, shredded cabbage, eggs. Let me just say that I absolutely hate carrots. But if it’s from Taste of Thai, I would eat an entire order of carrots if I could. I LOVE the carrots here and that’s saying a lot; all the ingredients felt so perfectly seasoned and cooked well. And the portions were LARGE! You really get more than what you pay for.

Thai Spring rolls - the crispy golden rolls that’s everyone’s favorite. I wish I could explain more than “they were delicious” but I think I blacked out while eating them. They were piping hot, FRESH! And I devoured them so fast because they were so good.

Crab and Cheese Wontons - another fried favorite!! Melty cream cheese inside a perfectly crispy shell. If you like any variation of crab rangoons, these are the same thing. And just a warning, the menu says it comes with 8 and you think it’s enough to share. It won’t be…..you’ll want the whole order to yourself. Don’t try and share because you WILL want more.

Everything was absolutely fantastic and if I weren’t so full, I would’ve licked the plates. It tasted extremely authentic and the service was so friendly and welcoming 🥹 it felt like family!! 5 stars all over and I’m already planning on going back tomorrow for another meal; my mouth was watering just from writing...

Service was EXTREMELY slow, place was clean but extremely bright.

Attempted to order water from the faucet and was told we had to buy bottled water if we wanted water because the water at the restaurant was “contaminated” per the owner. If the water is contaminated how do they cook or clean? Why hasn’t the health department addressed this issue?

Now let’s talk about the food. I ordered pad Thai delight, it was not delightful. It was tasteless, had very few peanuts in it and was not served with a lime wedge. My husband ordered his food very spicy but like my food his was tasteless.

Use to eat there when they were in st.Elmo’s. Was absolutely amazing. Now you couldn’t pay me to go back there.

We are calling the health department in the morning to report “contaminated” water in the restaurant.

Save your money and go to Panda Express. The food is cheaper and actually had...

We traveled down and stayed in Gulf Shores this past weekend. This was a vegan friendly option we found and were excited when old customers gave a positive review as we walked into the door. The staff were nice and helpful with menu selections. We were pleased with everything but the oil was tad off/not fresh in all the meals (pad thai, supreme pad Thai, spicy eggplant meal, 3 orders of springs rolls). About half way thru my meal, I noticed something that looked like a piece of beef in my spicy eggplant. I was disappointed but understand things happen. Please be careful cooking veggies around meat for nonmetal eaters. I also ordered spring rolls and on my third roll, vegan chewing something I couldn’t chew- a Rubber Band. Cooked into my veggie spring. I had already consumed a great portion of my meal by then but immediately just threw...
