Not all things available on any given day. They mix it up. Some items are special occasions. We had the lemongrass beef spring rolls, chicken curry, chicken laab, and lemongrass beef laab. Most of their spice scale is from 3-5. There are very few items that are one or two. It was good, but the heat builds. Unique flavors, very different from the ordinary. The couple were very friendly. They make everything fresh, including their Thai tea. I would like to try some other options. Looking forward to trying them.

I am a bit bummed out after dining at Thaily's as this is a place I would dine at least once a week for the food and the chance to interact again with Lee and Thai and their daughters. We were staying in Chandler for a family wedding and would be going home to Central California making becoming a regular very problematic. We always look for local and family run establishments and Thaily's is all of that. Thai told us they wanted a place that is warm and comfortable, a place you could come and feel at home. The decor is very simple and boasts two easy lounge chairs to sit back and relax. They certainly made us feel welcome. The menu is an interesting mix of Thai's Cambodian heritage and Lee's Iraqi culture but truly is much more than that. Their offerings are delicious, full flavored and robust. Almost everything is house made and freshly prepared per order. Our party selected a variety of dishes and just for fun and discovery tried a few extra items. Notable is the Cambodian inspired Morning Glory Soup Special, a rich and savory soup made with water spinach (morning glory) with a beautiful sour note. Thaily's has a very good pistachio baklava and Lee's version of Tatziki sauce is the best I have ever tasted. A big surprise is the Spam Musubi. This Hawaiian staple is a favorite in my family and we love good Spam Musubi. Thaily's version is excellent and one of the better ones we have eaten, including a recent visit to Maui. Thaily's will be a "must" when we are in the Phoenix area.

This is an amazing small family run restaurant, “hole in the wall.” I always get the beef laab and it’s the perfect mix of spice and lime. Yummy. My husband gets the curry. This is our go to restaurant that we are so happy to have found. Check it out… you won’t be disappointed!!

Phenomenal. SO good. Just go!Everything we ordered was fantastic and the owners were incredibly warm and welcoming, checking on us regularly to make sure our dining experience was top notch. We ordered the Prahok Ktiss, Beef Laab, Spicy Curry Chicken Platter, Spring Rolls, and the house-made Coconut Mochi and every single dish was absolutely phenomenal!Their Beef Laab is now my benchmark for what laab/larb should be, the Prahok Ktiss was unique, bright, and texturally delightful, the Spicy Chicken Curry rich, warming, and comforting, and the coconut mochi was *chefs kiss* beautiful.PS- The chili lime fish sauce that was provided as a condiment to help add some heat (prik nahm phla?) was FIERY and definitely hit the spot- I'd buy gallons to put on everything if they ever start selling it!!!They're located in a small unassuming shopping plaza with a tiny parking lot but don't let that fool you- Thaily's is the real deal and is easily one of the best meals I've had in Arizona!Parking: On the side of the plaza with about 10 spots in total for all 3~5 businesses in the strip
We were blown away by the food here! So unexpected to find a Cambodian/Middle Eastern/Arabic restaurant in Chandler, AZ, it was such a unique menu. We only had the Cambodian food but the owner cooked every dish to order, she was so friendly & sweet. The Cambodian Spicy Papaya Salad was so fresh, flavorful & authentic, the lemongrass beef stick & shrimp were so tasty & kid friendly. The Nom Ba Jok (red chicken curry noodle soup) was so yummy topped with potatoes, carrots & chunks of tender chicken in a rich coconut curry broth with thin rice vermicelli ...YUM! The owner, Thai, even threw in some extra noodles & some boneless lemongrass chicken, so generous & thoughtful! The best part...they also have spam musubis!!! What a winning combination we just stumbled upon thanks to YELP & all the great reviews, they were spot on. Thaily's looks like a whole in the wall but trust me...it's a hidden gem!

Just found this place, and OMG....fantastic!! Everything we had was amazing: spicy curry double chicken, lemongrass shrimp, lemongrass stuffed chicken wings and spring rolls. The stuffed wings were out of this world, and they were a special item. Highly recommend!! We will be back!
Wow another random find! Thailand is located near Chandler downtown. They have Cambodian and Iraqi food. Chicken and beef halal. They also serve pork dishes but the owner told me they are very cautious about keeping it separate. We tried Cambodian dishes, delishes and so full of flavor. Ambiance is rather simple and low key. Owner is super friendly and nice. Wife is Cambodian and husband is Iraquí

I generally visit here when I'm craving "something fresh".My go-to dishes are the beef salad and the Parahok Ktiss.They have one of the best beef salads I have had in Arizona and way better than anything even close to this area.I don't have anything to really compare the Parahok Ktiss to because I havn't seen it anywhere else but it is delicious and the veggies that come with it are always incredibly fresh.Also today I decided to try the SalawMachu Eggplant which was also fantastic and may be one of my new frequently ordered things here.Overall Thaily's is an underrated gem of the area.

It's a very small spot. The double chicken curry platter was very good. Shrimp and pork spring rolls were also quite good.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! The Khmer food tastes just like my grandmas and you KNOW that means a lot. Definitely a mom & pop restaurant & the overall vibe & ambiance is so Khmer, felt just like home. The owner, AMAZING, the food, PERFECTION. If you want real Cambodian food in the East Valley, this is your spot.

This is more of a middle eastern restaurant that has some thai hints to it.
