This is now my favorite Thai restaurant. All of their food is delicious, flavorable and they don't skimp on ingredients like many other Thai restaurants do.Last night I ordered for pick up. I love Panang Curry so that was my choice for the evening. When I clicked on the item to order, I noticed they offered rice, salad and the soup of the day for an extra $6. I jumped on that! The salad was a green salad with peanut dressing, the soup was a spicy coconut soup with vegetables and of course the Jasmine rice is always perfect with curry.The Panang curry is sweeter than red curry. Their version is absolutely delicious. It is filled with yummy ingredients, which also includes the Thai basil which I love as it adds such a yummy flavor. Chicken was my choice and there was a lot in my dish. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Absolutely delicious. It was the perfect way to end a very rainy cold day with no power in the house. Picked it up and came home to power and still kept those candles burning for the perfect ambiance in a storm. Thai food is good comfort food.This restaurant serves up the best.

Came here with my friends as one of the first few places I wanted to try in the new year. We got seated after waiting for about 5 mins. The staff was busy but accommodating. The ambience was decent. Not too formal not too casual and was decently busy. Mainly family dining is what I noticed. We took some time to look over the menu and saw it was extensive with lot of veg friendly, chicken, seafood and other meat options. This worked out very well for our group. We ended up ordering a few tofu dishes, a soup platter and noodles. Food tasted pretty ok and I wasn't blown away. Service was good and took fair amount of time.

The green curry was warm and delicious and enough portions for two people. The total cost was about $21 for the rice and curry.The service was fast and they kept checking in on us and asking us if we wanted water or anything else.The ambiance is relaxing and a good spot for a date and cozy vibes. The interior decorations are soothing!

Would rate this place a 3.5. Pretty solid spot for Thai food, there's a parking lot outside and plenty of indoor seating. The ambiance is pretty quiet and dark.The servings are pretty large so I feel like the prices match how much food you get. I ordered the thai spicy fried rice with chicken and it had a good basil flavor. I also tried their yellow curry which tasted like typical yellow thai curry (in a good way). My only thing is that I think all the dishes could use more spice, but the flavor was there

Service was decent. But he forgot my ice water. And when I ordered, I asked for extra peanut sauce and he said there's a charge so I asked how much and he had to go ask the owner or manager (Asian lady) and when he got back he said "$5.00 for peanut sauce but I can bring you peanuts for free" whaaaat??? What happened to Thai Spice. I use to go to another location in Irvine, CA when I was in college and although it was 2008; there was no extra charges for sauce at all. Now it's $5.00 for 1oz of peanut sauce? I can go buy a bottle of peanut sauce for $5. You get 2 stars for service and ambiance. -3 stars for the ridiculous EXTRA CHARGE for peanut sauce.

This is quite good food. I've driven past this place a lot, but finally decided to check it out and was pleased. It's fairly quiet for an early dinner, but is doing a fantastically busy takeout service over on the other end of the counter.

I have been coming to this restaurant (both the SJ and LG location) for years after a friend introduced me to it when I first moved up to the bay area. It has always been a favorite of mine and I've introduced many friends to dine here. The food is consistently good and flavorful. Whatever you get, it's usually pretty good. The only complaint I would have is that it's never spicy enough for me - no matter how spicy, extra spicy, thai spicy, really spicy I ask for my food to be - it's always kind of okay spicy. I have no idea why I can't get it made spicy enough for me - but it seems to be good for everyone else I go with, so I guess it's fine. Service is usually pretty quick. During the "to-go" only years, my food was always ready when I ordered for pick-up. When dining in, the atmosphere is quiet and calm, with the occasional big groups making big group noise - no big deal. I always have to have the papaya salad and usually rotate between the green beans with beef, spicy catfish, pumpkin or duck yellow curry, pad thai, pad seew and tom yum soup. Once in awhile, I'll opt for one of the other main entrees, but I tend to stick to the ones I've mentioned above as they are consistently good. I love when we go as a big group so I can order other dishes and try them as well.

We came to Thai Spice on a Wed night. There was no wait and 3 other people seated. They always greet us with smiles, and they are very pleasant. When reading the reviews and looking at the poor quality photos, I think they are getting a disservice.We ordered Chicken Satay and Roti (unfortunately, I forgot to take a photo, so I had to lift one off the internet). The Satay is fresh and delicious. The condiments that come with it are also very tasty. The Roti was warm and flakey. The same peanut sauce that comes with the Satay comes with the Roti. It's thick and not watered down like another reviewer stated.Our entrees were Chicken Ra-Na with Broccoli instead of spinach (the guys favorite-fresh thinly sliced chicken and broccoli perfectly cooked with a thick peanut sauce), Pumpkin Curry - Veggie - medium spicy (always delicious - super fresh and loaded with veggies. The pumpkin squash is cooked so it falls apart in your mouth) hopefully someday it will get back to being served IN the kabocha, and Spicy Spaghetti - Veggie - medium spicy (fresh and delicious - think of it as Thai tasty chow mein with lots of delicious healthy veggies and not greasy like chow mein). We ordered white rice and shallot rice. The shallot rice is cooked in the pan with the shallots, so it takes on a crispier texture and darker color. We loved our meal. We didn't appreciate the loud table next to us of two women complaining about the price of the peanut sauce and how they don't eat rice or noodles (not sure why you would come to a Thai restaurant then). But it wasn't the restaurants fault for their lack of situational awareness. We've always loved Thai Spice and have never had a bad meal there or takeout. The pandemic REALLY hurt their business, so please give them a try if you're in the area.

This is some of the best thai food I've had in San Jose! I had the Pad Thai with vegetables. It was only $15 for a huge serving. The dish was full of vibrantly colored vegetables and the sauce was a nice deep rich color as well-- I note this because I've noticed that pad thai with a pale color doesn't taste as good, lol. The dish was tangy and sweet and somehow I was able to clean my plate(probably because I'd only eaten a scoop of protein powder mixed into water that day, but still). The waiters did a great job, ladling soup for us and being attentive to our table. The interior is nice, clean, and decorated, perfect for a dinner with friends. I'll definitely be back!

They were able to fulfill the custom order I wanted accurately and quickly. I was pleased with the service as well. However, I did not like the pad thai at all and would not recommend it.
