Thai Recipe Bistro — Restaurant in Phoenix

This is a response to the owner... January 28th 2:23 p.m. check number 40. Server was Nuch. Table c3 The receipt says guest count was six but as you can see I only ordered two meals. My son and his wife were sitting with us and they only had two meals plus an appetizer. She did the same thing to them. Final update: January 2024 This may have been the last time I go here. Still the very friendly people in the food is outstanding but the prices are getting out of control. What makes me upset is on this last visit that were four of us. JUST 4! My wife and I split a meal because she wasn't that hungry and only wanted a few bites. So we ordered three meals. When the check came there was an automatic "large party gratuity" added to the bill at 20%. I had no idea the table of four with three meals purchase was considered a large party. To make things worse, if you're not paying attention you scan the receipt and it takes you to a payment page where it asks you to add a tip. A tip on top of the 20% they forced you to pay! I wish they would return to the days when they were only a year or two old. Much better prices, and affordable enough that we would go monthly. Now we only go once to two times a year. But like I said in the beginning, I don't think we're ever going to go here again... They are now a big greedy and implementing forced gratuity for large party which is not considered large by no means.

Update:. Just visited again today. Still an outstanding place to eat with clean and Rich tasting food. I'm not a vegan but my kids are so I got to try their food and it was actually surprisingly very very delicious. They also now have a robot that rolls around called Bella. It brings the food and drinks to the table and the waitress arrives and unloads of food and Bella goes back to the kitchen. If you rub Bella's ears (she's a cat) she'll make a cute face at you. I know it's weird but it's super cool and nice to see.

Super clean. Great food, nice staff and very...

Imagine eating the worst Tia food ever!! This place isn't that place, and it isn't even close!! I could even say it's one of the best Tia Restaurants I have eaten at.

My wife and myself are absolutely in love with the pan fried wide rice noodle meals. They had a wide variety to choose from which is really rare. This intrigued me a lot, and I am so thankful they did because we both got two different styles. I couldn't believe how amazing our food was and the proportion size. WoW, the proportions, we each had enough for a second full meal to take home. Now, how we choose our food was the beat part.

So most people won't tell you about the good in people but I don't know how not to about them. First we were greeted and got to pick our own booth, I like this because I want to have my back against the wall. Then the waiter took the time to get to know us and what we liked after we told him it was our first time in the restaurant. I love crushed peanuts, they had one centered around crushed peanuts and he instantly pointed it out. My wife liked a specific sauce and he had one just the way she spoke about liking. All he had to do was listen, and so he did. They also made a few special hot sauces my wife mentioned she liked and most places did have on hand. I said they made it right, yes from scratch right there on The Spot.

All in all, I will drive all the way from surprise AZ to go...

So this was a surprise stop. Our original Thai spot was closed for day, but I'm glad it was. Nothing at all against my original first choice Thai place here in the valley. I don't want to mention their name but it's always consistently great. But we found this spot luckily because it is definitely very close to my number one spot. To start off our waitress was perfect, young girl with pretty eyes. Just so whoever is reading this knows they're going to get good service. After that we ordered wontons, Satay chicken, pot stickers and Wrapped shrimp rolls. All we extremely tasty and so we're sauces. We also ordered red curry yellow curry and the basil Bliss. Each one had a distinctive flavor, the curries were made different and the flavors were on point. The basil bless was also cooked to perfection. The pieces of chicken were perfect size there was enough chicken in it and the vegetables were very good. I would highly recommend Thai recipe bistro to anyone who wants to go out and enjoy it perfect evening with all perfect meals. To top it all off for all that food a couple iced teas and a singha beer, our bill was still under $100. We've eaten a tie restaurants throughout the valley and actually the State of Arizona, and Thai recipe basil is in my top five, definitely go check it out tell him Eric sent you. LOL...
