Thai Cuisine

http://thaicuisine.flavorplate.com/If you're addicted to Thai Kitchen and need a backup, since they are closed on Saturday, there's an alternative in Rio Rancho, in the old Smokehouse BBQ building, next to Dutch Bros.I tried their Massaman curry, always a great measure of Thai food. The coconut milk was sweet & ordering hot spice was just right to trigger an endorphin rush, making my nose run, but manageable. Order at the counter and your food is brought to your table. Beverqges are refilled by restaurant staff. Beautiful epoxy concrete floor and simple Thai decor in the walls.

I just had an awful experience at this place. This is a long review, but if you don't want to read it all, in summary this place is 1) unsanitary - hair in the food and smells like sewer in the restaurant; and 2) the customer service is terrible.The first red flag was that the restaurant had a very strong sewer/bathroom smell. However, I let that slide because we were getting take out and you know what this is Albuquerque not every place is going to be super cute. I ordered $60 worth of takeout, which included an $8 tip, and when I got home and started eating, I found not one, but TWO hairs in separate dishes. I only have a picture of one of the hair because the second hair was so nasty that we just threw it out immediately. I called the restaurant and spoke to the lady, who promised a refund. So we drove back and she completely changed her tune and refused to give me any money back and told us that she could only give us credit or remake the food. We told her that we didn't feel comfortable eating the food again and just wanted a refund like we were promised.To make things worse, when I mentioned the hair, she actually told me that "hair in food is not a big deal" and that it was "okay." She also said that they were a small business and tried to make it as if we did not support small businesses. (Please keep in mind we gave an $8 dollar tip on takeout because we DO support small businesses.) Outside of the food being unsanitary the food in general was pretty subpar, and the customer service was downright terrible. I highly advise others to avoid this place unless you want to risk getting sick. I am going to report this place to the NM food and safety department because honestly, it was just so gross.

I ordered the Pad Mee. It was so full of black pepper that I couldn't even eat it. Should've spoken up while I was there. Didn't want to make a scene. Ended up throwing my plentiful leftovers out in the trash.

Their website calls them Thai Cuisine Teriyaki Queen but for lunch they only had teriyaki chicken plus a bunch of Thai dishes. Maybe for dinner they tack on more teriyaki. We ordered takeout, and got a beef Larb Na salad, a beef Pad See Ew, a bland chicken & noodle dish, beef basil fried rice, and a tofu pineapple fried rice. Also some fried chicken potstickers.First the good. Personnel were polite and had it all ready on time.Now the bad - wife's Larb Na had no sauce or dressing provided. I don't know if this is "more authentic" but she didn't like it's absence. Could've been an honest error on their part.The Pad See Ew tasted "weird" according to those who tried it. They also said the broccoli had a wasabi (!) flavor added. They ate it though. The chicken & noodles were eaten by kids who didn't complain.The two fried rice dishes sucked. Rice was plainly not fried, at least not long, and was pure pearly white. So essentially steamed rice stirred with a few ingredients. Not nearly enough. Overall very bland. Yes I ordered it mild but could still have had non-chile spice, more protein, or more veggies beyond a few straggling shreds of cabbage. There's enough good Asian places nearby I won't be forced here again.

Great service friendly staff love to support local businesses. The food was great as well the Thai tea

Finally I got here. I've had many people recommend it,it's just down the street and it's taken me 15 years to get here. My loss. I had a lunch special which includes: soup, egg rolls (2 small), black rice pudding and fruit. My main course choice was Chicken pad Thai. For many years x I couldn't find anything to compare to my Shaker Heights, OH favorite. I finally just stopped comparing. Thai Cuisines lunch was very good. Lovely Thai flavors, generous portions, great service. It was quiet when we entered , many others filed in after us. My husband like his pineapple and rice combo, he forgot the name ! But he is difficult to please. We will be back, sorry we took so long to get here. Great lunch spot!

Every time you come around, you know I can't say no...Every time the sun goes down, I let you take control...I can feel the paradise before my world implodes...And today, we had something wonderful...An appetising lunch at..."Thai Cuisine"...of starters of "Spring Rolls" with shrimp and veggies so fresh tasting with a wickedly good sauce, Chicken Satay with a velvety peanut sauce over one plus done chicken...then the sharing continued with an entree of..."Pad Mee" with al dente angel hair rice noodles, plump shrimp, veggies with just the right amount med. heat...so delicious we ate it all..:) Every pure intention ends when the good times start...Fallin' over everything to reach the first time's spark...It started under neon lights and then it all got dark....Nothin' happens after two, it's true, it's true...My bad habits lead to you..:)Best, Avram Sheeran Jr.

Time for dinner and needing to to break out of our rut and try something different. Well Thai is different and it's close to the house. Ordering was pretty straight forward. Vegetable roll appetizer then for entrees Pineapple Curry & Chicken Pad Thai. The rolls were tasty, lightly fried and not overly greasy with a sweet dipping sauce. Both entrees were equally tasty. Good flavor, no single spice overpowered the dish. There was plenty enough to eat and a little for the next day. My favorite part of the meal was the Black Rice Pudding. It was in a covered in what a think was a sweet cream. Sweet dish without being too sweet. It was a great compliment to the meal. We'll keep coming back even if just for the desert!

So came to this wonderful place for the first time two months ago. We loved it, so much that we held a confirmation lunch here. The staff was very accommodating with us, I made the reservation a week before and went in a few days before to talk about menu. Since majority of our party had not tried Thai before, I took the guesswork from them and ordered three trays of food ($60 each). This way we would not overwhelm the kitchen with 20 different plates and all could eat at the same time. Would do this again with a large party.

This has been our go-to for Albuquerque Thai for years. Even my brother who lives in California said it was the best. Visited tonight and had one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Pad Thai was insanely sweet and inedible. We were told they use tamarind and the sauce was brown with how sweet it was. The other noodle dish we had was super salty and our potato curry had raw potatoes in it. Never experienced a restaurant falling off this badly. We tried to send food back since some was literally uncooked and inedible and they refused. We will never go back.
