"I can't believe it has taken us so long to return to Charm Thai! My husband and I stopped in on a Friday evening around 5pm (we were both starving after busy days at work!), and there were plenty of open tables. There was only one server when we came in. Once we ordered, everything came out quickly! We had the tempura coconut shrimp appetizer - it was SO GOOD. Huge shrimp fried to crunchy perfection. It didn't even need the sauce it came with, although that was yummy too! When you check in on yelp, you get a free Thai iced tea - it was light and refreshing, and had a unique (to me) flavor. For our meals, I ordered the Pad See Ew after seeing it in someone else's Yelp review - it was friggen BOMB. I loved the garlicky sauce and everything about it. It was even good leftover the next day. My husband had the crab Thai fried rice. He enjoyed it, but he liked my dish better (as did I!). He cleared his plate!The food is definitely 5/5 stars here, and I would highly recommend, but service after we ordered was not great. No one checked on us once we got our food, and we waited about 15 minutes after we finished our food before anyone returned with our check."
"It's getting chilly in Tucson (writing this in November) and I was in a mood for some Khao soi. I ordered summer rolls as well to start. Their peanut sauce is absolutely delicious! Khao soi was tasty and flavorful just the way I wanted it. I really love that they greet you in Thai when you walk in and also say "thank you" in Thai. I think it's a nice touch. Servers were polite and very sweet. Food came out so fast!!Overall great experience!"
"Bluf: excellent general tao and pad see ew. Service was friendly and attentive. Nice clean and new looking restaurant. We don't claim to know better but have traveled the world and enjoy all kinds of amazing food. I had the general tao's chicken and the vegetables were crispy and fresh. The chicken was hot and crispy. The sauce was amazing and I have found my new Chinese and Thai spot. My wife had the pad see ew. The noodles were cooked perfectly and had a great savory flavor we expected. The chicken was tender and moist. Veggies were perfect and so was the sauce. It's been hard to find a good Thai place since Chef Dee closed Senai, but this is our new spot for sure. We had some steamy hot pork egg rolls which I could have had like 20. Super good and nice starter while our food was made fresh! Lastly, the service was so friendly. The owner was super attentive and talked to our 10 month old. He asked our plans and we had a nice conversation. 5/5 would recommend."
"This place came highly recommended by my fellow coworkers so I thought I'd give it a chance. Had a nice lunch the Kawr Pad was good and had some unique flavors. The waiter was also the cook so service was a little slow but not bad."
"Great service and good food. The food is fresh and flavorful. Most popular is the Pho soup but I've tried other dishes and enjoyed as well. Very clean restaurant and cute. My family goes regularly for a quick lunch and it's always consistent."
"Just saying the food and service was GREAT is an absolute understatement! The ambiance was also perfect! We came for dinner as a last minute meal because we have never been and this will forever be our new spot! We got the curry, one of the pad dishes, a soup and the Thai tea! Whenever you're in town make sure you to stop by and give your tastebuds an absolute experience."

I've visited Charm Thai several times since their original opening years ago and have enjoyed their authentic Thai dishes every time.Tonight I was looking for a small meal and ordered a delicious Five Spice Roasted Pork (Moo Pah Lo) which was quite tasty but a little spicier than the medium I anticipated it to be. My friend yummy Drunken Noodles (Pad Kee Mao) also was a little spicier than the anticipated medium she ordered. We were able to enjoy some Happy Hour items too: edamame, vegetable spring rolls (both not traditional) and some white wine. Since the dishes were a little spicier than expected, they were kind enough to comp the spring rolls.We didn't have reservations but were promptly acknowledged and allowed to take a seat anywhere we wanted. Their cozy decor hasn't really changed since their original opening. Their staff are all very friendly and attentive which we always appreciate. They checked on us often and topped off our waters, brought extra plates for us to share and containers to pack up our leftovers too without being prompted.As we closed our bill out and walked out, we realized that the restaurant was filling up with only two high top tables remaining open. Such a good sight to see our local businesses being busy and filled with happy diners.We parked in the public parking garage which is conveniently a short walk back to our cars.We recommend checking them out but we have to always remember to order our dishes a little less spicy than we think we can handle just to be safe!

Such a cute Thai place! From the friendly staff, to the ambiance and street-style decorations in the store, to the variety and creative presentation of the dishes, it's understandable why this place is consistently ranked as the best Thai place in Tucson. Personally, I loved the papaya salad, crab fried rice, grilled marinated pork skewers (must get!), and mango sticky rice:)

Awesome little place! My daughter and I wanted something different. We came in was immediately greeted and sat. My daughter ordered the melon boba and I had the coconut Boba. The sweetness was perfect. The Bobo was soft and chewy the way it's supposed to be. I ordered the garlic veggie lunch without the rice. It came with an eggroll and a soup. I picked the hot and sour soup. The veggies were good and the soup was just delicious. My daughter tried it and she really liked it. I ordered the papaya salad. If it's not something you've ever had before, it is a unique taste like kimchi. But I enjoy it. It was fresh and just very refreshing. This was the first time I had papaya salad that had like bits of green beans in it and I enjoyed the crunch. My daughter ordered the pho. That broth is just amazing. She got it with the tofu I liked it. She probably would've enjoyed it a little bit better with beef. And at the end, my daughter got mango sticky rice because she's always wanted to try it and she just loved it. The restaurant is small with limited seating but we were the only ones in there and I was very surprised because the food is fresh, the place is clean and the people are just so nice.

Bai Thong is always an amazing stop! Whether I eat in or take it to go, the quality is always impeccable. My favorite dishes are the Tom Kha Gai and anything curry. The decor is beautiful and it's very comfortable inside and the employees are very friendly and help with any questions you have. SUPPORT LOCAL!!! this plaza has a lot of great local stops you can grab some occult items at nexus, then hit up cupagogo (discount w receipt from nexus), and then a delicious meal at bai thong :)

There's no way this place only has 3 stars! They've got amazing food! Their food is better than most of the places here in the central area. I'm ready to go back. This will be my go-to in this area.

"Just moved back to Tucson and this place is still phenomenal! Food was hot, spicy and delicious! Service is still amazing and I'm glad the decor is still the same! Love this place!"
"This is a small not-too-fancy Thai Cafe that has "The Absolute Best Pho" in Tucson. Service is super great too. What else do you need to know! Get in there and have a large bowl of #36; spectacular!"
"This place is great. The service is so friendly and quick. The inside is sparsely decorated but still has a great vibe. I came here one before and wanted to try it again to see if I had a similar experience and I did. The food tastes sooo good. I got the egg rolls and the Thai beef salad. The beef salad can be in served at different levels of spice and I really appreciate that. It was so very tasty and so was the egg rolls. I highly recommend trying out their Thai food here."
"Tuk tuk is decent. I've ordered from here a few times. Pad thai is better than average. Pumpkin curry is good as well as their Pad Prick Pow Chicken. I would stay away from ordering the lunch menus as they are the same price as dinner but they give you less food. For example, the pad prick pow chicken will cost you 16.95 for the lunch meal that comes with rice as shown in the picture - two thirds rice, one third chicken. If you order the dinner dish, it comes without rice, but you get the same container full of chicken for less money.Overall, this place should be called, 'Good enough Thai.'"
"Hidden Gem and way better than MantisVery traditional Chinese restaurant that also has Thai food on the menu. Lunch specials are great and reasonably priced. Their wonton soup is VERY GOODPortions are just right for lunch and the 1 lady who runs the front of the house is very kind."
"The service is always very friendly. We usually go in a large group and order many different dishes and share everything. My favorite is the calamari and the yellow curry with chicken. They have a drink special 2/$5 highnoons. The portion sizes are large and there's usually plenty of food to also take home."
"Authentic as you can get!! The pad Thai is on point and the prices are great, especially for a food truck. Do not miss out. Check their page for updates. You can preorder, and as of right now she takes off menu requests."
"This food truck is a gem in the middle of Sierra Vista parked outside of a convenience store. There's plenty of parking, and the service was quick. Once we ordered, our food was ready in less than 10 minutes. Everything was delicious. The chicken in my curry was moist and flavorful, but the chicken skewers were a bit dry. The barbecue pork was extremely tender and savory. We brought our food to a nearby park to enjoy, and it was the perfect lunch. Definitely check out Toy's for delicious Chinese and Thai cuisine!"
