Even though we live only 5 minutes away a lot of the food was cold! The chicken satay was very overcooked and tough! The See Eaw beef was very overcooked and tough! The dumplings were cold!

I order lunch from here several times and it is always so good! My go-to is the cashew chicken, but the pad Thai and curries are great as well. I love that they are able to accommodate my gluten free requests. I highly recommend!!Dietary restrictions: I love that they are willing to accommodate my gluten free requests!

This is not authenic Thai food at all. The food taste more like water down Chinese food. Thai food is savory and has a good punch to it. It's not suppose to be overly sweet or watered down in flavor like what this place sells. The only good thing about the place is the decor and atmosphere. Other than that don't be deceive by the high reviews from white ppl who never had real Thai food.

My family can’t get enough Thai Zapps! Definitely the best Thai food in southern area of Kansas City suburbs!Vegetarian options: We get extra veggies in one dish and tofu on another and my vegan is always ecstatic.

Really great service! Got the Drunken Noodles, was very spicy for “medium”. Ragoons are pretty small.

I went to Thai Zappz for the first time and chose the red curry with chicken. I'm used to Thai restaurants downgrading the spice level so I ordered hot. That was a bit hotter than I like, so it's a lesson learned. But spice level notwithstanding, this was the best Thai red curry I've had in the US. I just kept shaking my head and expressing how good it was. I have had as good or better outside of the US at a place where it was recommended to order it "Thai style", but this was second best and absolutely wonderful.To temper that a bit, today I ordered Phad Thai, delivered. It was a bit dry and just not as tasty as some of the other Phad Thai in the Kansas City area, but it was still good. Hard to say how much that was due to delivery versus eating at the restaurant. I think I'll work through the other menu items at Thai Zappz before returning to the Phad Thai.Overall I love the place and I plan to be a regular customer.

Looking to try somewhere new during the end of KC Restaurant Week '24 and so glad we came to Thai Zappz! We decided to come for lunch and man was it busy! We had to wait briefly to get a seat, and then food did take awhile to come out after ordering. The staff definitely seemed a little overwhelmed, but were checking in and apologetic. However, they both prefaced before seating us that there would be a wait and we found out after they had a group reservation of 25 that they were serving (hence the wait!). All things considered, they handled it very well!Now the important stuff, the food! We ordered off both the restaurant week menu and the regular menu because there were so many dishes we wanted to try. They have a good variety of classic Thai dishes and street-food inspired dishes. We ended up getting: crab rangoons, crispy garlic shrimp, fried dumplings, Tom Yum soup, and drunken noodles. Everything was so so good. I loved the crispy garlic shrimp - great flavor (though I would have loved more sauce to soak the veggies or rice in!) and a good amount of food. My husband loved the drunken noodles. He devoured them (though I did steal some bites!). All the apps were great too.I also ordered a Thai Punch cocktail! Not totally sure what was in it, but it seemed like a fruity, orange/citrus rum drink. It was fun and tasted great!Overall we would definitely visit again!

Wow! The crab Rangoon and pot stickers were better than most restaurants. The pad thai was amazing, tho! I’ve ordered delivery pad Thai before and by the time it gets to me the noodles are one big clump. Not this time! They were delicious and the texture divine!

Just went for restaurant week and so glad we were able to try and find this place. The appetizers were yummy and the food was delicious. I really appreciated that they respected the spice level ordered. I love Thai food but can’t handle the spice. They made my food with no spice without sacrificing taste.

Visited during KC Restaurant week and thoroughly enjoyed my dinner. The service was pleasant and speedy. I tried the Fried Dumpling and the Hot Red Chicken Curry. Both were full of flavor. The curry packed the perfect punch of heat and mouth watering flavors. I was surprised it was not very busy on a Friday night. More people need to try this place out!
