Amy's Thai Food — Restaurant in Sterling Heights

UPDATE 01/13/2024 After spending the night and part of today without power our house hasn't had enough time to warm up. We were all tired from a cold night, and a very early breakfast at a local 24 hour diner. Amy's Thai was already our go to if power didn't come back on, so we went anyway. This is just the most awesome Thai food place around. Super Super Super food. I recently rated a trip to Eat Thai that was not good, with a we can't make curry that isn't hot. Well guess what. I had curry fried rice with a spicy symbol by the description. I asked about making it tiny spicy and of course it was done perfectly. Just simply the best meal I have had in a while. Perfect spice level ( mild.) I just can't do spicy anymore. Family run shop and dad is an awesome cook. Everyone is SUPER friendly, just the nicest people around. Just don't go anywhere else. I ordered curry fried rice with extra mixed veggies check pic

UPDATE 09/29/2023. Just two of us today, so we tried the Satay Gai appetizer. It was very good. The sauce was a unique and pleasantly flavored accompaniment. I have Thai special fried rice with pork which was really really great. The pad Thai curry was its usual awesome too

UPDATE 07-15-2023. So glad to have the family from Amy's Thai back from their trip to Thailand. They were super busy which is great. The food was its usual awesome.

Mothers Day at Amy's. It was requested and a treat. Our neat little local treat has become a little more well known. That's great for this awesome family, but it is becoming hard to get a seat. I really am hoping that they expand some day soon.

(03/07/23) just another GREAT day eating in at Amy's Thai. Everyone enjoyed what they had. I have been trying different things and again my meal was awesome. I had pad cashew nuts with beef as my protein (mild) and WOW is all I can say. My wife had the pad thai curry with chicken (mild) and as usual loved it. It's simply awesome food and yes everything can be made vegetarian. (12/29/22) Really busy tonight. We arrived just before the inside seating got crazy. Take out business flowing fast. Another amazing meal. No picture (sorry), my family is giving me the business over my dood staging. I had the perfect Pad Thai with pork tonight. No Red pepper flakes and mild spicy. Loved the spring roll appetizer. Really.. just get here and try your favorite Thai food made fresh and "your way."

Update to my previous review. Amy's is packing them in and churning out a good takeout crowd. If you believe in quality brings business then the crowd speaks to the food and service. Our food was still great and I just need to make sure I ask for no red pepper flakes. That was my fault, but once I scraped the flakes off I was fine. Still great and still recommend them (10/09/22.) Wow, Wow and Wow. I haven't been to a Thai food restaurant in easily 30 years. I had a very bad experience then and was not able to overcome it until now. My son has been asking to try and he finally talked me in to it. My wife found Amy's and what a hidden gem. It's a smaller place (slightly bigger than the two or three table asian style takeout look of others.) It has a clean, fresh but not over done look, which I loved. Now to the best part. The food was absolutely, fantastically, awesome. Yes it was good enough to get a new word combo. The hot and sour soup that comes with the meal was very good and had a nice spicy warmth but not super spicy. I really don't prefer spicy foods although TUMS stock goes up if I do. Our main dishes were all fresh, hot (like just off the burner hot) and loaded with flavor. We were all able to get the spice level we wanted with no surprises. It seems lately like all of the Chinese places are becoming bland and flat with their flavors. Amy's did not have that problem at all. It is a little high price wise, but the food was well worth the cost. Checkout the pictures which show my Beef Pad Sew Ew, my wife's Pork Drunken Noodles, and our son's Pork Gang Gai (Red Curry)(medium spicy crazy kid.) If you love Thai food I'm betting you...

I randomly found and tried Amy's about a year ago by searching Google and looking at the highest ratings for restaurants near me. It has become a favorite of mine ever since.

I've tried at least 1 of every category of dishes they offer and almost every one of their curry dishes and have always enjoyed them with the exception of the N6 Pad Woon Sen and the N5 Southern Thai Noodle which were just OK.

I've settled into the C2 Gang Keaw Warn (Green Curry) as it has become my favorite and my go to almost everytime I go although I'm confident no matter who goes you will find a dish that you will love.

I personally have recommended friends, family, and co-workers to try Amy's and have never had one person come back and tell me anything other than they absolutely loved it and are now regulars themselves.

Every time I go I'm greeted by the same regulars (I'm pretty sure are all family) who not only recognize and remember me but also remember my usual dish, meat, and spice level (which is not a level even listed on the menu). And everytime it's consistent quality and taste. Even their white rice that comes with your meal is great by itself. It has flavor, it's cooked just right, and isn't too loose, dry, or sticky. The customized spice level isn't just heat for the sake of heat. It's heat with flavor. It's the proper way to do it. I've tried many other Thai places and they just don't compare. I can't say enough about the quality and flavor of their food at Amy's. They just get it. They can truly cook. I hope they never change a thing.

Give them a try. It's a small place and most people I tell are shocked a place called "Amy's" could have such great Thai food. But you will be pleasantly surprised. Be nice and be respectful. They are kind...

Our new fave go to Thai place! Our old place, Bangkok Station didn't have good hours and then quality and quantity started going down and prices went up. I always order a few dishes to test a Thai place, crab Rangoon, curry pad Thai and a red curry vegetable and chicken dish. Amy's crab Rangoon is by far the best I've had. They are huge, stuffed to the max and never soggy nor overcooked. The pad Thai curry was different than other restaurants. It's almost more of an Indian curry than a Thai in flavor but it was not dry and had plenty of sauce and they didn't forget the lemon wedge like many places do. I got the C4 w chicken to try a rice curry dish with mild spice level and it was perfect! Lots of veggies that weren't overcooked and a flavorful sauce with just about enough rice to eat it with. For spice reference, I typically enjoy some spice up to about a medium salsa level and I thought the mild level here was a good amount of heat. Not too much to effect how much you can eat but not bland. Price point is also good! About 15$ for a meal that I can eat at least twice and it includes a cold canned beverage. We have gotten carry out multiple times and it's always ready on time and very hot when we get home. We will come sereral times a...
