What People Are Saying About Mae Phim Thai Restaurant

Featured Review

In Short – Fast paced and dirt cheap, this friendly family-run restaurant offers a handful of simple dishes to eat in or take out. A dozen Formica tables fill up quickly, but service is speedy. Lower-downtown working folk can sit down to an enormous plate of pad thai or curry (and more often than not, a complimentary bowl of soup as well), and still have time to window-shop before the clock strikes "You're late."

Editor's Tips

When to Go:
If you plan on eating in, best go before noon or after 1:30pm; otherwise, takeout is your best bet for a work-day meal.

CHEAP, fast, and delish

by thailuving at Citysearch

I love coming here for lunch except it gets really crowded and is very small. You cant beat the rpice and quickness though. If I have the time id go to a better thai restaurant but it is conveniently located, fast, and very cheap!

Not sure how they receive all the 5 stars

by etoilelumiere at Citysearch

I've never writen a review before however, after my experience with this restaurant I just felt I had to add my voice. They are definitely not the BEST nor are they any good! I ordered the Pad Kee Mao - NO FLAVOR at all. And when I went to pay by credit card they were going to charge me a surcharge unless my total was $10 and above. So, I added the spring rolls to my order. Okay let me tell you the lettuce in the spring rolls were yellow (definitely not fresh) and the rice noodles were slight brown. Again my entree had no flavor and the dish only filled up half of the to go box. And on top of that I ordered the Pad Kee Mao chicken - there were only 3 pieces on chicken in my dishes. For all that I paid $11.50. Definitely would NOT recommend this place to anyone. There are restaurant that give you more food, more flavor and fresh food for less!

  • Pros: None
  • Cons: Food is not fresh; Overcharge and want to charge you a surcharge for using a credit card

Good, Not Great!

by acherb at Citysearch

I was less then pleased to find that my to-go order skimped on the main ingredients. In my order, there were only two small pieces of broccoli, one green bean, three slivers of onion and a chunk of pepper that was cut from the stem. My order came with two modest strips of chicken.

I did get full on my order. However, I was disappointed to find that my meal did not reflect the description online. I wouldn't rush out to eat there again.

I asked for chop sticks and it seemed as if I was inconveniencing the wait staff. They are definitely not customer service oriented.

  • Pros: Close to my work
  • Cons: Quality, Service
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
