Wow!! A Perfect 10. 🥰 Thai food is my favorite.
Taste of Thailand is the best!
Best Thai food I have ever eaten in over 50 years. Best ambience. Fastest service with a smile. Reasonable priced. Clean. Family owned, our money stays in Nebraska. No shortcuts so you get the best of everything. They do not dilute the food so you get the full flavor 😋 The food has flavor, color, aroma and is the perfect temperature. They are truly honored to serve you. No attitudes here.
What a great place to add to your day!
This is a family owned restaurant since 2004 in Omaha and in California for many years before 2004. Two brothers now run the restaurant Fariq and Farouq of Thailand and Arabic decent run Taste of Thailand with no other help.
We had the Thai Spings Rolls for appetizers, Chicken Basil and Lemon Grass Chicken then Sweet rice with Mango. What a treat!
I had the unique opportunity to talk with both of these very talented and interesting brothers at the end of their day.
They tell me they gave up their well paying careers of Managing and HD Engineering Artwork to take over this restaurant for Mom and Dad when retirement was required but not before Mom and Dad trained them to cook and run the restaurant. For Mom anything less than perfect was counted unacceptable .
Fariq runs the front delivering so seamlessly taking phone orders and processes take deliveries with ease all while waiting on all tables, making your experience personable and delivering each plate, in a timely manner every.
Farouq runs the back. Carefully preparing each plate, as he completes orders for each table on time. It is his Artwork you will find hanging on the walls capturing the culture.
No prep cook, no sous chef, no other employees just these two brothers make it all happen.
I watched in amazement as it all came together perfectly from start to finish at each table with only 2 people working here.
I have eaten Thai food for many years in all the best restaurants in Arizona, California, Texas, Colorado and of course here in Nebraska. No other...
Read moreWe have not been to Taste of Thailand for almost 2 years, but we remembered liking the take out so we decided to go dine in. When we came in, there was only one other table seated. Our server was nice, but seemed a little flustered by questions, but they did get answered.
Our first sign should have been that the water tasted bad. Our appetizers came out and the spring rolls had good flavor, but were watery inside. The lettuce wraps were okay, but had the texture of ground beef.
The guy that came running out the entrees was in such a hurry it felt like he was throwing them on the table. There was a group of people looking to order food to go and they were standing in the path from the kitchen. Instead of telling them he would be coming in and out and maybe they would like to have a seat while they decided, he rudely told them to sit down because he had to get through. Our entrees came out and two of our dishes had shrimp that was completely unseasoned. The pineapple shrimp curry did have good flavor, but again, zero flavor on the shrimp. Our teenager described his pad Thai chicken as having been pre-chewed. I tried it and had a hard time swallowing it.
We decided to just go, so we asked for the check. The guy from before asked my husband if he liked it and he said no, but we would just take the check. He turned to me and asked if I liked it and I said the sauce was fine, but the shrimp needed seasoning. He said okay, but seemed at a loss for what to do. We said we would just take the check, so he left and our server brought back our full price $89.00 bill which we paid and we left our full plates on the table and left. Now we have stomach aches.
There are so many rave reviews for this place and that just was unfortunately not our experience. Maybe they are taking some shortcuts and are short on staff, but if this is the case, I would consider closing the dining room and returning to take out to lessen the...
Read moreDoesn't look like much when you walk in, but for a Saturday night, it was a full house. This was the first time my boyfriend and I had been to Tast of Thailand. We've found some delicious Thai food in the area and have our favorite places, so we had high expectations based on previous reviews and ratings. If you like Thai food, I HIGHLY recommend this place. This is now my number one authentic Thai restaurant in the area. Both my boyfriend and I cleared our plates. It was that good!!!! We really enjoyed the spring rolls, Thai fried rice and the spicy noodle with chicken.
Warning - the spicy level is hot. We both got a level 6 with our food, and that heat level was at our limit. It was enough to taste the favor of the food and give some heat. Trust me, it was still spicy. I drank a lot of water with this meal. Lol BUT we like spicy food. If you're not a spice person, I would recommend a level 4 or lower.
The staff was extremely friendly but busy. One person who was the host and waitress, and the owner who was delivering the food from the kitchen to the tables. The food came out very quickly after placing the order. If you don't want to do a sit down, you can place a pick up order.
We...
