Thai Express

Review Summary

Thai Express draws mixed feedback: some customers praise fast, friendly service, a clean space, and tasty dishes like Pad Thai with a fried egg, and note helpful drive through options and a recently changed administration, while others point to inconsistent quality and portions, citing too much rice with not enough meat or sauce, missing basil in holy basil, onion chunks, minced protein, burnt eggs, and occasional bland flavor, plus practical annoyances such as missing disposable chopsticks and unbranded containers. Several reviewers mention price increases tied to a perceived drop in quality, with one saying chicken was horrible and another asking what happened to the value. The building layout is noted as large with two floors, and the drive through can be risky due to street construction, though some updates report quick service at the window.
