Thai Cottage Westheimer

Having eaten at 2 other locations and got amazing pad Thai I expected the same from this location.Ordered 2 orders of the lunch special of pad Thai "to go."Didn't think that it could be messed up boy was I surprised.Unfortunately both orders were a huge disappointment.Firstly, even ordering it a medium, the dish was way too spicy for our taste. We couldn't even finish it because the heat was so overpowering. Secondly, there wasn't nearly enough chicken in the dish. It was mostly just noodles and peanuts, with a few small pieces of chicken scattered throughout. Thank goodness for the salad and eggroll. It sort of saved the meal.But the problems didn't start there. When I arrived at the restaurant, even though there were 2 wait staff talking to one another and not serving any customers, I had to stand in front of the restaurant for about 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged my presence. To add insult to injury one of the wait staff answered the phone in front of me that rang after I arrived.When I finally got someone's attention, they seemed annoyed that I wanted to order to go. Overall, maybe this place was just having a bad day. The pad Thai was a huge letdown and the service was at best a 2. IMHO not worth the trouble, instead order from Greenway or Sugarland where service is always consistently good.

The chicken in my dish tasted of reheated chicken which is not a good taste. So my sweet and sour was eaten without the chicken. Service seemed nice but i did get my appetizer soup like a minute before the main dish. I love thai soup but this time i should have gotten the salad. Ambiance fresh and open and packed during lunch. Garlic taste was lacking and i always taste it in Thai food.

Went here for lunch and ordered the yellow chicken curry lunch special. Taste was reasonable however portion size was very small, few thinly sliced chicken.

Love this spot for a quick lunch break. Their lunch menu includes salad or soup plus a main for a reasonable price. I've had their pad Thai and pad se ew and have enjoyed them both. My friends like their curry - so that's another option!

Hands down the best shrimp pad thai I've had in Houston... It was moist, juicy, and flavorful. The flavor was exactly what I was looking for: Thai-flavored lol. And the fried chicken wings (Wings of Paradise)....OMG so GOODT! I was a bit skeptical because I'm not fond of basil, BUT those wings were wonderful, even with the basil! Give this place a try, it'll be worth your while

I had a family dinner here, and it was quite good experience. The employees here were so nice and friendly. We ordered many dishes, but the one that caught all my senses was Red Curry with catfish. It was amazing! I wish it could be a little bit spicier even though I chose the hot level. Overall, this is one place that we should try.

Thai food is pretty okay here! Gets busy with all the companies nearby but good service just try to get in before 12:00!!

So I did give them more chances...some experiences were good, some okay, and some bad. Like tonight's take-away. Hard to believe I paid $24 for (thankfully fresh) soft spring rolls and salty red curry with large chunks of old, bland, tough chicken, soft green peas, carrot lardons and huge bamboo shoots right out of the can. After using kitchen shears to cut the chicken, carrots and bamboo shoots into bite-size pieces, I took a couple bites and threw out the entire dish.

Ordererd a pad thai and tum yum soup And this is what i got, a roach in the soup ....

Was there today at 11:15. Put in our order shorty there after. People were coming in getting their order before we did . So we asked where our order was ??? One order finally came to the table . The other was made wrong so @ 11:45 were still waiting for our orders .When the order with the pork finally came it was 12:05 and pork was absolutely nasty tasting .. we sent that back .!! Didn't want any more ... I feel like they should have comped the whole meal ! Nope I paid for my OrderThere was a line out the door - I can't see why.My chicken was like frozen chicken heated upand bottled cheap teriyaki poured on it . This used to be good food . Apparently not anymore . Never again ..
