Reviews for Taste of Thai in Knoxville, TN
I feel bad for writing this review as I've eaten here numerous times over the years and it was delicious. This last visit left a... bad smell in my nose. I ordered Tom Yum soup. It is a lemongrass soup and it should be light and refreshing. After I got mysoup, I was excited for the mushrooms and broth (I LOVE soup) I saw. However, I kept getting a whiff of what I can only describeas worse than a wet dog. Eventually, I realized it was coming from my soup. I had already been eating it (I was really excitedfor it and got a large portion) and once I acknowledged it, I couldn't eat it anymore. My partner had asked if anything waswrong, I told him. He was getting wafts of the smell as well. It was so strong, he was turned off from eating his food. Theservice was friendly, the Thai tea and coffee were great. The food wasn't worth the $50 tab, which I paid and tipped 25%. So, Ijust won't be back. Read more
delicious food! everything on the menu is good. A fair warning to those who are first-timers or are TOT naive, their scale... varies from dish to dish: a 1 on one dish may be a 3 on another (1-5 hotness), whereas the Thai hot on their famous drunkennoodle is a mere 3 with a red curry. Read more
My friend and I came here for the first time and discovered that their food are great and their customer service is awesome too.... My friend ordered chicken noodle soup and I ordered the beef noodle soup and the sweet coconut sticky black rice with mango fordessert. We both liked and enjoyed our food very much. We will definitely will be back here more often. ???????????? Read more
Love the food here! It comes with all the Thai food and teas you would expect. Soup and Curries are delicious, yet the noodles... of course stand their ground. Solid place to eat and I will definitely try to come again when I get the opportunity. Read more
Excellent!!! I hesitated to eat here with a 4.3 star rating however found out myself this should 4.6+. I had my go to order at... every new Thai restaurant I try. Shrimp basil rolls, Coconut soup and Masaman chicken. It was all fresh and delish. You pickthe heat you want for your dish between 1-5. I went with 3 and it had the perfect little kick. They let everyone that walked inknow they were short staffed with only 2 servers (restaurant was packed). I had plenty of time to spare but was greeted by aserver within 2 minutes and had food on the table within 15. Pretty incredible for short staffed! I will absolutely add this tomy go to restaurants when in Knoxville for business. Give them a try! Read more
Amazing food. Clean. Fast service. 2 teas, 2 appetizers ( fried pot stickers and spring rolls) chicken pad thai (get spice level... 3 or higher) # 35 on the menu (rainbow something) BP Noodles, and mango sticky rice = $67. TOTALLY WORTH IT! Leftovers for days.Amazing place! Read more
This is our favorite Thai restaurant in west Knoxville! We?ve been to quite a few in the area and this is the one that we stick... with and keep going back too. We personally love the Pad Thai and Yellow Curry, they are full of flavor! *We love summer rollsbut the ones here have too much mint for us. Read more
The staff was short handed which we understood but our waitress was tereible. She complained about the other guests she had to... us and didn't bring us the rest of the food that came with our meal. She was very dramatic talking to her other customers andwhen it came time for the check waited a very long time then got the check from another waiter who was awesome by the way how hehandled his customers and then after waiting another long period of time I had to go up myself to pay since our waitress was toobusy complaining and,folding napkins. Not a good first experience at this place. Read more
