Thai Taste — Restaurant in Tulsa

My wife and I have been to Thai Taste many many years ago and wasn't really blown away but on a random Tuesday and craving Thai food I suggested Thai Taste since we haven't been in so long to give them another shot. We arrived just after 6pm and there we 3 customers between two tables. The dining area was lack luster although chairs were comfortable.

We were promptly addressed for our drink within no time after seating ourselves. Our server, very nice gentleman, was quickly to provide his opinion on which curry he would order when I asked him what he likes among a few options I asked about. After a brief look at the menu my wife and daughter decided on what they wanted to enjoy.

I opted for the recommendation of the red curry minus potato and rice add extra veggies, which they didn't up charge. My wife ordered a noodle dish (#39 lad na) and my daughter chose their sweet and chicken since she is not as diversified in knowing Thai food like my wife and I. My preference is very spicy so I ordered Thai hot level 6 but when it arrived it was fairly mild for palete. Unfortunately, my sweating head was from the environment of which I felt was from the slightly warmer/humid environment of the establishment walking through the door (I'm naturally warm by nature). When I order Thai hot I expect to it to burn me but it felt very mild for Taste ( I enjoy ghost pepper and Caroline reaper hot so that could be unfair).

The flavor of the red curry lacked the luster and flavor that I've gotten from several other establishments around Tulsa and even Broken Arrow. I feel obligated to say it wasn't bad but it wasn't good enough to draw me back for another visit. My wife's noodle dish was cooked properly yet she felt it lacked something as did I. My daughters sweet and sour chicken reminded me of some old school sweet and sour chicken dishes I've tasted growing up and offer plenty of bell peppers, onion, and pineapple that I would've personally enjoyed but she only cared for the protein portion of chicken and practically left all the veggies and sauce behind ( I reduce unnecessary carbs where so I didn't indulge much besides a bite or two).

Overall, I love to support local and all the Thai places we normally indulge are locally owned just like Thai Taste. If I based my review on personal encounters they would be an easy 4 1/2 star all day long. Visually, the food looked very appealing and it arrived hot. Rating by food and wanting to visit again I would personally give them a 2.5 compared to the places I personally frequent. The quality of ingredients when it comes to veggies and meats I felt were great but the flavor was lacking. I'm not mad at giving them another shot after many years but I personally prefer other...

No sriracha boogers! There are numerous good Thai restaurants in Tulsa, and here is another one. The Thai dishes with coconut, basil and curry flavors have me hooked. We started the meal with a Chicken Satay. Very disappointing. The breast meat chicken was tough and lacking flavor. The dipping sauce did little to improve the appetizer. The sauce appeared to be chunks of peanut butter and some type sweet liquid. It was not blended to a smooth consistency. Difficult to use until I took my fork and gave it a vigorous stir. Recommendation; pick another appetizer. The meals improved the experience significantly. My wife went for one of her favorites the Pad Thai. Nice flavors in the meal and not excessively oily as it sometimes can be. Rated as 4 stars by my wife. I had a dish I have not had before, the Pad Ped; chicken with fresh mushrooms, onions, bamboo shoots, bell pepper, jalapeno, a touch of fresh basil in a spicy chili paste, served with Jasmine rice. This was a delicious 5-star plate of food. The coconut and basil flavors stood out. Fresh mushrooms, red bell peppers and jalapenos, added a crisp snap to the bite and enhanced the mildly spicy sauce. I ordered a three, but could have easily enjoyed the meal with a four or better in heat level (scale 1-6). And a complement to the staff at Thai Taste. They clean the nozzles on the sriracha bottles! I looked around the restaurant and didn’t spot any sriracha bottle boogers! My pet peeve, with many Asian restaurants; filthy condiment bottles on the table. Thank You! Menu is...

I was there for the first time so I wanted to try a few things, so I got 3 appetizers. I ordered a cup of the egg drop soup, egg rolls and dumplings. The soup was good, but they delivered veggie spring rolls rather than egg rolls. I decided to let it go and they were also good. Then the dumplings. I have ordered dumplings many times from many establishments and I have never not received what I refer to as potsticker sauce, a brown, soy influenced dipping sauce. Not here. They gave me the bright red sweet and sour sauce. I asked for the typical potsticker sauce and was told that was all they had. It's not the same experience. Then the check arrives. I had ordered an iced tea along with the 3 appetizers. My check was $25. I know food costs have risen, but that struck me as high. You can decide. Anyway, nothing terrible but nothing calling me to return, which I hate bc this is a mom and pop restaurant and I really...
