24 Best Thai Restaurants near West Saint Paul

“Mela is a family favorite, we were looking for a new Thai restaurant when we moved into the area, and this is definitely the best. The curries are fantastic but we usually get the Pad Thai, purely out of familiarity. The massaman curry is out of this world, too. The spice here is serious, so if you love food that brings the heat this will definitely be a winner for you. Milder dishes are definitely available and other dishes can be tamed in flavor for those with less adventurous palates.Overall I would highly recommend.“

“I ordered chicken pad Thai from here for the first time today. It was great, quick and well priced. This is a take out only place so don’t expect to dine in though there is seating outside. I will be back to try more food but what I ordered was great.“

“There's definitely no tie, in my opinion this is the best Thai food in the cities. Everything is so fresh, all the dishes are cooked to perfection, and the food actually is spicy unlike so many other places that are unwilling to give you the heat that you truly crave. Would recommend.“

“This is the best place to go if you are craving some great Thai food. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are big. I got Chicken Pad Thai and Egg Rolls. They were both so good and because of the portion size. I have a whole other meal for later. This is a cozy little restaurant with 5 tables in total (there wasn't a wait when I was there) located in a building with other establishments. You scan a QR code that takes you to the website where you view the menu and order online. You can use cash or card. There is both dine in and takeout.Parking: There is a big parking lot behind the building“

“Not busy at all on a Saturday but great food and service. My Shrimp Pad Thai was requested medium hot and it was great. It had a little kick. The Fresh Spring Rolls were very good. Could have used more shrimp. My husband had a dish with pineapple, rice, pork and onions that he really liked. Very reasonably priced for the amount of food.“

“This place was amazing! First Khao Soi I’ve had outside of Thailand, and it was SO delicious. Ingredients are imported from Thailand. The owner is from Chiang Mai, so the decor and menu are heavily inspired by beautiful Northern Thailand. They’re relatively new — they’ve been open for 11 months. I will definitely return and continue to support them. Wishing them much success. ❤️“

“Oh my goodness!! Absolutely delicious! Clean establishment, parking was easy, and the service was good. The food was the best I have had in a while. I ordered larb, spring rolls, and ginseng coffee. I love spicy food and the larb was truly spicy and full of flavor! I will return here for sure!“

“Had a very nice lunch here with my cousin. The food is quite authentic. Had spring rolls, Pad Thai, and Laab. I was so excited they had chicken Laab, most places just have pork. You can even get tofu Laab here. The spring rolls had rather a lot of lettuce but very fresh.My cousin and I hadn't seen each other in a long time, so we were there quite awhile. Staff was very patient with us, though did not offer us any refill on water ?Dietary restrictions: My cousin likes this restaurant because it works well with her dietary restrictionsParking: They have a parking lot in back but it's unmarked and hard to find“

“Order some lunch through Grub Hub. Typical delvery, no issues there. The food was still warm. Order spice level 5, but it was not spicy at all. Over all the flavor, profiles were good, but they were small portions listed at around $12 to $15 per dish. For the price vs. the portion size,i would not order again. Im sure Grub Hub jacked up the prices some. Could be better for dining in or picking up yourself. That is usually always the best way to go. I would try again because i enjoyed the food, but just not through an app service.“

“We order pickup from Pad Thai around 3 to 4 times per month and absolutely love this place. Excellent flavors, nice sized portions and overall very good value for money.Vegetarian options: Most dishes that we've tried work well with tofu.“

“I ordered pineapple curry and asked them to make it real Thai spicy and they did make it real good spicy and gave me nostalgia of my days in ThailandTotally recommend it to people who want the real Thai amount of spice, and heads up, it is not for the faint of heart “

“we've been here probably a dozen times and haven't had anything that wasn't delicious. particularly love the fresh rolls, red curry and drunken noodles but we've tried almost everything and never been disappointed. my daughter usually doesn't like pad thai because it can be fish sauce heavy but here she loves it. if you like Thai food, this is your new GoTo place .“

“This is a must go establishment! My favorite is the vegetable fried rice, medium heat...can’t go wrong. The service is top notch. The owner, Tiffany, takes pride in providing a pleasant dining experience. Super clean and inviting environment.“

“This place is definitely one of my favorites. The food is delicious and fast. I always get the Panang curry or the pad Thai. I really like how comfortable the small and quiet dining area is with all the plants. Super friendly family-owned place. I'm always so surprised that this place isn't super busy because it should be!Vegetarian options: Most dishes have a choice of meats, tofu, or veggie“

“First I have to say that the food was just wonderful! I had Thai food before at another place and it was just nasty. I was reluctant to try this place but glad that I did. Very good food! my boys are picky eaters and they loved their food. This place is very cozy and very relaxing place to eat. The staff is very friendly, we will be back!!“

“THE BEST! Lamphai (maybe I'm spelling her name wrong) is the sweetest lady. She has run this restaurant on her own for 28 years and makes excellent food. She was so friendly and showed me all the herbs that she uses for her dishes. She piled my lunch buffet plate high with beef, chicken curry, pork, wontons, and rice, and checked in to make sure it wasn't too spicy and that I'd had enough rice. Stop by Taste of Thailand for great food and support this long running, woman-owned business!“

“Wow! The food is amazing. Yes, it's a bit pricy, but quantities are generous, and the freshness can't be beat. We had the little shrimp dumplings, crab fried rice, green curry, and spring rolls. Spices were on point, we both loved the use of fresh herbs in the dishes. Highly recommend!“

“Just got back from Thailand last week and am already craving Thai food. I figured I would try this place out since it's close to where I live. I got the Pad Thai with Shrimp and inhaled it! Great flavor! I'll be back to try the Khao Soi next time!“

“My husband and I had the Laos papaya salad (4/5 spice), dried noodles (3/5 spice) and beef laab (3/5 spice). The food was amazing!! The spice and flavor was on point! The service was excellent!!The owner was very personable and met our needs to the best of his abilities. My husband wanted raw laab, but he couldn’t serve it raw, so he made it medium rare.The atmosphere was casual but a little small; if I would’ve brought my family there, it would’ve been difficult to seat everyone.Lunch hour. Reasonable price. Parking was not an issue.“

“Found this spot 2 years ago and we (coworkers) have been going regularly for lunch ever since. We've tried a few things off the menu, but the main thing we're ordering is the beef noodle soup "pho". IMHO best 'dark' broth pho in the area! --probably because there isn't any other spots within a 5min drive from our work place. I mean we have tried other spots further, but nothing has beat this spot in terms of flavor. There's probably 2 that are close, but none has us wanting to go back for more. Service-wise you can expect the expected. On busy days, service is slow. You can also expect that sometimes food will take 15+minutes. It's also possible you might have to grab more napkins on your own if you need more. It's also possible you might have to ask for more water as well. What I'm saying is, the service is there. They're all friendly and nice people. Do be warned though, you might hear the aunty be demanding sometimes to new workers. The place is nice. Situated between a small pet store and a sports store. I don't think any of the tables are wobbly, but don't blame me if there is, personally, we've only really sat in a few booths and tables. They've got plenty of tables. I don't recall any music, but I do recall just a slideshow of their menu on repeat. Just sneaking in my 'ambiance' piece. Anyways, pro tip: if you're trying to grab a quick lunch and dine-in, you can order ahead of time on the phone. Another pro tip: during lunch hours, lunch special portion is a good option if you're not able to eat a whole entree by yourself. So if you see something you want and it's on the lunch special, give it a go. Just some info on things I've tried: Khao Soy is one of the best I've had in the Cities, unless someone can point me to a better spot. Chicken Lettuce Wrap is . Spicy chicken wing is hit or miss, but when it hits, it's . Don't expect the Pad Kra Pow to be like your typical Thai restaurant - this one is a light stir fried version without the fried egg and without the minced meat. Rah Nah is real good. Fried rice is . I highly recommend this spot. Note* get your spice levels correctly. Be warned, mild can be spicy.“

“Really glad to find this place after going to few Thai restaurants here in Minneapolis that were so-so and kind of overpriced. This is pretty authentic stuff, and glad to find things I don't see in other Thai restaurants like the hamok and the sour sausage, which were great. Did take out and not eat in, but the service was friendly and quick. The area is a bit run down and the parking situation was funky, but I'll definitely go back for the food.“

“Server was a bit strange.The food completely made up for her.When you walk in the door, there is no fish smell.Very important!The food temperature was perfect.Texture, flavor, all spot on!We drove 25 minutes to get here, and will absolutely be back.“

“This restaurant has great food and provides even better customer service. You're greeted in a friendly manner, drinks come out quickly, tables/chairs/booths/floors are clean. We never have to wait for a refill for sodas as they are always one step ahead. We enjoy the cute robot that brings our food.“

“The food was phenomenal! It all tasted very well put together, and the spice of each dish was amazing. I'd say Little Asia is definitely a great place to authentic Hmong style cooking food. Service was a little iffy as in slow, but it was not too much of a big deal. I just hope it isn't as slow when they're super busy Pork Belly was crispy and juicy Beef brisket was the STAR Sticky rice, could've been better. Some of it was a little harder in texture like the outer layer RAW beef laab was good and herb-y Kapoon Kua Tshia- tasted well, but we expected more from it as in flavor and meat provided“
