I don’t know where these 1 star reviews are coming from, because this is for real the best Thai place I’ve ever had. I know a lot of people are hung up on the atmosphere, such as the vampire Halloween napkin holders; I don’t know why people care about such a small detail to an amazing restaurant. One person said something like “clearly they’ve never been to Thailand or know authentic Thai food” but the owner is literally from Thailand…the first time I came here my husband and I sat in the downstairs part of the restaurant in the alley way. One of the owners, the husband, cooked our food in front of us and it was the best I ever had. The upstairs restaurant has the same quality of food, delicious and home cooked. The customer service is always top tier. I hope this place never goes out of business, it would be a really sad day. Favorite place in Columbia.

The food was overpriced and tasted as bad as it looked like it would! I don’t know how to post pictures or I would. The grease was old and you could see it on the crab Rangoon and the sauce for it was light yellow like urine not sure what it was. If it wasn’t such a hassle I’d go back and get my money back.

Wish I could give 1/2 stars...I'd give this 3.5 stars. The Thai fried rice was fairly wet and a bit gaumy. Rice was not highly seasoned....and I had a 3 star level of hotness. Portion size was very good. Overall ambiance/look to the place needs to be sharpened up. Various areas of the place, are kept cluttered and look kinda junky.

First time going here at this location; Friday night, we were the only ones there. Kids playing at a table with their toys; Cheetos scattered on the floor. We asked for Thai eggrolls, server said they didn't have any but we could get pot stickers, so we ordered that, for appetizer. I ordered garlic chicken, "add shrimp $4." The girl with the kids got up to go assembly our food. My garlic chicken only had shrimp, NO chicken. Shouldn't the menu have said "substitute shrimp" instead of "add shrimp"? I ordered garlic chicken because I wanted chicken. No appetizer came, so I asked about it and it finally came when we were done eating. Never again. This place was disgusting.

It was pretty good food. I've had better, but I'd say it was a solid 4 star. Our server could have been a bit more friendly, but maybe she was having a rough day at work. The spice level probably needs a little more consistency. I had a much higher level dish than my friend, but there dish was more spicy than mine ?. Still, good little place to get some decent Thai.

I came here for dinner by myself on a Friday evening. Almost all of the tables were full, which I took as a good sign! I was greeted right away and shown to a table. The walls are covered in photos and there was Thai music playing. This was my first time eating Thai, so I asked my server if he recommended the Pad Thai or Pad See Ewe. He said Pad Thai was their most popular dish, so I ordered it with pork. He asked if I how spicy I would like it on a scale of 1-10. I went with 5. It was spicy/hot and so delicious! I think I had 5 glasses of water. The noodles were tasty and light. The pork was good, as were the vegetables mixed in. I ate every bite and would happily come back to have it again.

Tofu not quite like any I’ve ever had…tasted like bologna? I think maybe this place is better as a take out option than dine in. A little grubby. On a positive note our waiter was super nice and the Crab Rangoon was wonderful.

I dont know where the people with 5 star reviews ate, because this can't be the same place.Seems to be only one person working. Took forever to get food. A 4/10 on spice level had no spice and no flavor. The food was lukewarm, the rice was mushy. It was the worst thai food I've ever had.And the atmosphere is...just bizarre. A kid vampire Halloween bucket was the napkin holder. There was a door to nowhere in the wall above our table.
Very good food and fast service. The prices are cheaper in store. The decor is very cool as well.

I ordered Mongolian beef and potstickers. Came to almost $40 and I get less than half of a container of Mongolian Beef and Potstickers are in a glorified trash bag with half a ramekin of sauce. I won't be ordering from here again and wouldn't waste your

Great place to have some eats! The food was very flavorful and had an authentic flavor profile along with spice level. I recommend the curry or pad Thai! Don’t forget the peanuts!Do yourself a flavor favor! Give ChimThai a Try!
