Mai's Thai Restaurant

I've been wanting to try Mai's Thai pretty much ever since moving to Southern Indiana four years ago and finally decided to go for it today. I had heard rave reviews from people in various social media groups so maybe my expectations were a little higher due to that. I ordered the Pad Prik (beef) and a side salad. The total was $22.25. For one meal. These are prices I would expect to pay when ordering through a food delivery service, not for pick up from a small business. Taste and flavor were good, but nothing spectacular and not spicy at all, even though the description stated it was in a spicy sauce. The salad dressing container was barely half full. Overall, a three as others seem to absolutely love it but I seriously doubt I will eat there again.

GUYS. PLEASE GO HERE AND GET THE #35 with CHICKEN. IT IS THE BEST RED CURRY I HAVE EVER HAD AND IVE TASTED OVER 40 DIFFERENT RED CURRY'S. Mai very easily could have the best red curry dish in the country and I promise I'm not just saying that. I drink it, I live it, I love it. It's a gift from god if you see this review and don't go try it you should be ashamed of yourself and have fun living in a box. CHEERS MAI MY QUEEN

So, my first impression of this place was that it looked like they had taken over half the dining area space for take out orders. Which is fine, I am sure that had a lot to do with COVID, but it all still looked very temporary and slap dash. Like its been three years, make it a thing if that's whats working for you?We order, pay and sit. The orders come out and everything is on paper plates, styrofoam bowls, plastic utensils. I mean, come on what is this? This is absolutely terrible for the environment. Also portion sizes were very tiny for what you order, although now that I think about it - it probably was so the plates and bowls did not collapse under the weight of the food. I am able to sample the Kanom Jeeb: Thai dumplings of pork and water chestnuts wrapped in potstickers. Served with special sauce. These were tasty, and prepared well.Satay: skewers of marinated, grilled chicken. Served with peanut sauce. The sauce was OK, did not have any more of a complex flavor than peanut, but the chicken was seasoned and juicy.Pad Ped: Spicy red curry sauce made with snow peas, bell pepper and onion with tofu - probably the best thing but I asked for it to be Thai hot and of course the heat barely registered. The worst part though was that my dish was supposed to have all of those vegetables listed, and I literally got one snow pea, one chunk of bell pepper and the rest was giant pieces of onion. That's a terrible deal.My moral compass insists that even if this was a 5 star place I cannot give them any more business for the plate and cup situation, so because its not even close to a five I will have to pass on Mai's Thai in the future.

Not worth the investment of time and moneyYoung lady at the front desk was more interested in her cell phone, she could have be clean or organizing the clutter ... go next door to Taco Bell

I've been going to Mai's for over 10 years now. The food quality has never changed and is literally the best Thai food I've ever tasted in the Kentuckiana area. Hands down.Covid did change the environment and dining room experience. She has continued to run the operation very lean. Mai didn't open the dining room until a year if not more after covid and has kept things minimal to be able to keep her restaurant doors open. We're all aware of the hits restaurants are taking with increases in food cost and supplies. While dining in Mai uses plastic and paper to decrease cost too. She has had to shift the concept from a nicer sit and dine place, to a come in for a simpler market experience, or order take out. I'll take it so I can get the best Thai food around. I beg of you to not judge this place for anything other than the food and kindness from Mai and that you're supporting a family business that a lot of people want to continue to support.

It's been many years since I've eaten at Mai Thai in Jeffersonville, IN. I've been on the hunt for the best Thai fried rice and thought I'd try it for lunch today. I was able to find their menu online and called to place a pickup order. I ordered the Thai fried rice with chicken and Thai salad. They quoted me 15-20 minutes. When I arrived the parking lot was empty, but I took a later lunch around 1:20 PM. On the door was a sign requesting patrons wear and mask correctly, which I appreciated. There were also a lot of signs about paying by cash. There was an additional 3.99% charge added to your total for any card payment. Fortunately I had cash on me. When I entered I was greeted by someone and asked if I had placed a Togo order. It was all ready for me. Total was $14.49 and I paid with a $20, but the cashier wasn't able to provide me with change. She had to wait for the owner to provide the change. The food smelled delicious and I could wait to dive in! The salad was a side salad but everything was very fresh and it was a good portion of lettuce. The dressing, a peanut salad dressing, was excellent. The fried rice was very good. A little on the peppery side, but I enjoyed it. Also the onions were still a bit crisp, which I enjoyed. All in all it was a tasty meal that hit the spot! Not the best fried rice I've ever had, but it was very good.

We are from California and have been to many many Thai restaurants, as well as in other states. We had a party of 6 but their tables only accommodate 4.The guy said we can sit at 2 tables.We requested to put them together, and one of the ladies was upset about that but they did it anyway.We were giving Thai tea with drips of the drink all over the foam cups.The curry and rice was served on paper bowls.They typically serve on ceramic plates and bowls, and if you have a restaurant, you should be doing that. The guy said we could order at the front or cashiers desk when ready so we did, but the table of white people next to us didn't have to pay until after their meal.What is up with that? Racism? Assuming we will skip out on the bill while having 3 young children in tow? Discrimination thinking we are poor? One of the ladies was very nice but the other lady always looked and acted angry and even yelled towards the end of our time there. The curry was extremely spicy, and I couldn't even enjoy it. There was also barely any chicken in it. It seemed like we, the paying customers, were an inconvenience to them, and they were not very accommodating. The food was okay but not good enough to come back for the food alone.Even if it was amazing, we won't be back because of the terrible service and treatment. We aren't spending our money on this.Only good thing was the thai tea in my opinion.I've never been to a Thai restaurant with mean, angry, and unprofessional staff. Don't waste your time or money

Excellent food. We had the Panang chicken and chicken Pad Thai. Both were very flavorful. Service was friendly. Looking forward to coming back again (and again).

The restaurant has half of the seating space crowded with supplies, keeping a few tables on other side. Order from the counter. Warning: they charge .75 for a cup of tap water. We weren't told that. The food came out after a while and it was ok. A few small pieces of pork in my dish and it was very soupy. The portions aren't very good. Oh and they serve the food in paper plates/bowls with plastic cutlery. They should just make it to go only.

Mai and her family are such a joy! This is the best Thai food in town. They treat you like family when you walk in the door. If you have not visited yet you should. We love Mai's #23. Enjoy!!
