Mano Thai Diner — Restaurant in South Salt Lake

The food was excellent. Came here with my wife, we had spicy chicken fried rice and garlic stir fry. Bother were excellently prepared and presented. The baby corn was a little over powering but the blended spices and other veggies made up for this oddity.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was mixed. The feel of the booths and tables is charming local with Thai identity but the seating founder and kicked bar screamed Chinese buffet. It was on odd clash but most of my focus was on the food and conversation so for me these were minor details.

The staff was pleasant and cordial seating us quickly and patiently waiting on our order as we went through the drinks offered disappointed we couldn't find tea among the beverages listed. The waiter seemed a little flustered and unsure of themselves but returned twice to ensure out order was correct.

The delivery was perfectly timed for us but might have been concerning if we're hadn't decided to split/share our meals together. We slowly consumed the fried rice and once finished waited for about 5 minutes before delivery of the second dish. Nevertheless the garlic chicken stir fry was still excellent and we were happy with our choices.

The restaurant was decently clean and the bathrooms were tidy. The silverware the plates complemented the fare in aesthetic style.

I enjoyed the food but they seemed busy. Dislike when I pay in cash and they ask if I want the change for more than %50...

This restaurant is not very noticeable from the road. I can't believe that I didn't notice this until today and to think I just live couple blocks away. But once you're inside, the place looks really nice, clean and cozy. The only reason I found this is due to reviews I've read and yes, those reviewers were spot on. They really have very good tasting food. They have a full menu of appetizers, soups, stir frys, noodles, grilled meats, vegetarian selections and desserts too. I came in just couple minutes right after they opened for dinner which I like since I have the whole place just for me - exclusive use haha. The server was very nice and was patient with my questions. Food was served in a very reasonable time, very appetizing, clean and yes, the first bite made me smile - very fresh and very delicious. You can taste every ingredients and spices in it and the flavor is just enough and not over powering or clashing. They have ample parking for everyone. The only reason I left one more star out is that I wish they do a bit of a facelift on the entrance of their restaurant (restaurant name/sign, etc.) to make it more noticeable and inviting cause I think they are way better than some of Thai restaurants around Salt Lake. Other than that, yes they are worth trying and definitely will be one of my go-tos...

Good place for standard Thai food.

I’ll echo another reviewer in mentioning I somehow never noticed this place. Compared to the rest of the brightly colored signs along 3300 S, this and David’s Kitchen seem to blend right in.

I ordered pickup off Uber Eats. Prices were fair and the menu was predictable. I’ve had issues with food ordering services where the restaurant makes my order but never marks it ready. This time, I had the opposite experience. I was given a reasonable timeframe for pickup. My order was marked as ready near the end of that window. I drove to the restaurant and went to the pickup window. I had to speak with multiple staff to figure out what I had ordered. They hadn’t even started it yet. It took them nearly 10 minutes to serve me. I had asked for utensils and they didn’t provide any. They need to work on their system for pickup orders. I also wish restaurants wouldn’t use foil or foam to pack orders since those can’t be microwaved, and this place used both.

That said, the food was great. I always order pad see ew (spelling debatable) as a benchmark for Thai restaurants. This was one of the best I’ve had in...
