Decent place for Thai food. The shrimp curry was good, pad Thai not so good. Calamaris were good ????
Food is good. They seem understaffed. We waited 30 minutes past when quoted for takeout so 1:15 just to receive takeout. Definitely think twice about ordering during popular times.
I ordered the Pad See EW and spring rolls. The food was completely freshly made and authentic. The restaurant is beautiful inside and makes for the perfect place for any occasion. It’s clear that the word express is not for a quick microwaved meal but for the place the taste immediately takes your taste buds.
Everything here is delicious and the staff are friendly knowledgeable Irena answered all my detailed questions and everything exceeded my expectations. Simply delicious! ????
Favorite place to dine in Ithaca. I’ve been dining here for 20 years (on-and-off); they are consistently delicious! Now I get the joy of sharing good Thai food upstate with my kids.
I can't stand this place. My family makes me go here from time to time when Tamarind is closed and it's always awful. Everything is either flavorless or way too greasy. Tonight I had Spicy Rad Nah noodles and they weren't wide as advertised on the menu, they weren't spicy, and they were insanely greasy. The mushrooms were undercooked and the sauce was flavorless and underseasoned. They don't use fish sauce in anything. Some of the worst Thai food you can have.
Drunken friend rice w chicken and basil Thai stir fry with chicken. Chicken was good, possibly chargrilled and vegetables were fresh. Great spice level. Restaurant isn’t full open post pandemic but accommodated is with take out and allowed us to sit at outside tables.
Only place I liked my meal so much I ordered another one. This was back when they had done in. We travel up from PA and have to hit this place the pad Thai is unreal. Spring roll and sauce is also 10/10! Just had it today no more dine in. But there is outside tables. Give this place a try.
I love me some Pad Thai. I always get it whenever I order from a Thai restaurant, without fail. Taste of Thai Express offers really good sizes for a decent price. Up the street is Tamarind, which has seen smaller portions but higher prices, so I hope ToTE stays gold in that regard. Love the reward system, which gives you points to save for another meal. So, I was able to get even more Pad Thai. Everyone wins.
I've never eaten in the restaurant since they've reopened the lobby post-pandemic, but I've never needed to since I always choose take out. Even so, I have always had a good experience with the ladies at the pick up window, who are never rude. Now, the name "Express" is at best wishful thinking. I've come to get used to needing to hearing them tell me it will take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes for pickup. I hope it's because so many other Ithacans are getting their Thai fix, but I can't know.
This establishment has built a lot of goodwill with me over two years. Once, they took down the wrong call back number, and so I waited extraordinarily long for them to alert me that the meal was ready. So, they gave me a complementary meal. Another time, there was a mix up with the points system and card I had on file. So, they let me use previous credits right away and continue with the points system instead of completely starting over. Another time I desperately called about 10 minutes before closing to order, not knowing that they actually shut down the kitchen 15 minutes before closing. Yet, they were willing to fire up the ovens one last time for my meal. I was immeasurably grateful. That is the sort of PR that keeps customers coming back, overlooking faults, and even leaving tips. Would give Taste of Thai Express a 5/5, but the time between ordering and eating isn't actually in line with the name. But in my experience, it has been worth the wait.
In the future, I will definitely order more Pad Thai from Taste of Thai Express, and I will definitely enjoy it. Thanks for everything ToTE! Best bang for my buck!
