Manee Thai Cuisine Indy — Restaurant in Indianapolis

This choice was a very last minute choice for the evening meal. My Hubbi was driving from the Eastside @6pm-ish to our hm on the far Nside of Indy. I wanted us to eat something great together is what I told him. He didn't want to eat, so l took it as an opportunity to take that as a greenlight to induge in Chinese food. Not very often do l eat a pint of fried rice anymore because it's not my spouse's taste @ all. As l began to search the net for places "near me" as we're heading hm, of the 3 given only 1 was feasible when we reached the place they were closed(it's now 6:45pm). I then decided to give up the idea of some rice, w/huge veggies, spice but not too hot, & something fried like an egg roll w/veggies & go the route of gyro, the spot was Greek near us in 86th st. But my Hubbi still wasn't hungry & not at all disappointing to me because there was Manee right next door to the Greek restaurant as if it were glowing and there were no Christmas lights outside. The deck was so quaint and decked out yet when we went on the inside oh my goodness it was a whole new world and it smelled delicious. While my hubbi was in the restroom I decided to take my time looking at the menu to decide on whatever delicatessens I was going to choose. I ended up being super impressed & delighted w/ the pan fried fish cakes & mild Curry though they were a little bit greasy as I had read one other reviewer mentioned I personally took some paper towels what's I made it home because the order was for take out and it took about 20 minutes...l dabbed off the excess oil. The dipping sauce was amazing ,oh don't get me started on my basil chicken fried rice the green beans seemed to be sauteed in the basil w/every bite & man mercy YWHW felt like He is living inside of my meal. I will definitely be back & definitely recommend for a later in the evening amazing meal that will definitely give you a party in your...

I was really looking forward to trying this place. When I looked up the menu online, they all looked very tantalizing. I walked in and was very impressed with the decor...the gold accents, mood lighting, wood, etc. There weren't many people in the restaurant, which was surprising since all the surrounding restaurants were packed. After my experience there, I definitely understand why. Once I entered, I waited quite a while to be acknowledged. Two people came in after me and despite standing right in front of the greeter, he chose to take care of their needs first. This is an immediate turn-off. Since I was meeting a friend for dinner, it was too late to change plans. Once I was finally acknowledged, the greeter/server waived his hand flippantly and told me to sit anywhere without making eye contact or anything. I sat near the door to see if anyone else was treated this way. I noticed that people who had a similar "appearance" as myself were not treated with the same level of customer service as those with a different "appearance." This was very disappointing. If you are going to open a restaurant in a diverse area, you need to give EVERYONE the same level of service. The food was decent, but the customer service made the overall experience very disappointing. I won't be recommending this place to my family, friends, or clients. It's 2023...practically...

Here's a VERY nice surprise hidden back in the North Willow Mall shopping area just west of St. Vincent Hospital on W. 86th Street! Nestled just behind our other favorite restaurant, Metro Diner, the food we ate here today was absolutely delicious!

We started with their Manee Sampler appetizer which included: 3 ea. of spring rolls, shrimp in a blanket, crab rangoon, gyoza, and shumai. A scrumptious introduction to what was in store! I also tried a cold glass of their Thai Iced Green Tea Latte. Yummy!

Our main entrée orders were: Lobster Pad Thai (at spice level 3; 4 is the highest) which came with soup or salad. I chose their vegetable soup.

My wife had the Pad See You with pork (spice level 2). Our daughter tried the Tom Yum Noodle Soup (level 2) and our son had the Duck Noodle Soup (level 2).

I ordered the Tempura Cheesecake dessert to-go. I can't wait to try it!

If you like Thai food, decent portions, and fair prices like we do, and haven't tried Manee Thai Cuisine you're...
