I tried out this place last night looking for a meal out and this is now gonna be my go to place for Asian/Thai food. I got the Massaman curry and it was so flavorful with the coconut milk and nuts served with rice and onions. Oh man did it hit the spot that's for sure. The ambience and the culture of the place was breathtaking and it made me feel like I was in that region of the world. I also got the fried dumplings which made a great appetizer and the Thai tea was simply incredible! Can't wait to go back.

I had the lunch chicken pad Thai...hot. portions were plentiful. Was tasty. Soup came out with the entree so had to eat fast before everything got cold. Service was slow but they were busy. I'll be back to try the Tom Yum soup...my favorite.

Much like the conception of our Lord Jesus, the Choi Chee fish curry was immaculate. The fish was tender, the sauce was indescribably good, and the spice level was perfect. I also tried the pineapple fried rice, which was good but not great. It was very heavy and needed a bit more freshness. The bites with the pineapple hit the spot though, I just wish there was more pineapple to add a zip of freshness. Overall, a great place. The people I went with said that the pad Thai was good and the pho was also really good, but I don't have many details to share on that other than it looked pretty darn

What an incredible place! It was so clean it looked like you could eat off the floor. We had heard the food was good so we had to give it a try. The service was great and so was the food. You can't go wrong with a nice variety of Thai food for you to try.

The food is tasty and beautiful! Customer service is always phenomenal! We prefer to call in and pick up. It's always wrapped and organized nicely with hand written notes on the containers regarding contents and a smiley face. We love this place!

Been here a few times and have had the pad thai beef multiple times. Its always the right mount of flavor and portion. Not to sweet like some other places and the noodles are cooked just right. I've also had the yellow curry and rice, if the menu is anything like these two dishes you can't go wrong. Its always packed during lunch hour. So be sure to call ahead for the to go's. If not try to get a seat prior to the rush. Can't wait to try the rest of the food they have to offer.

Absolutely and positively excellent Thai food! I've spent time in Thailand and sampled Thai food all over the country and the world, and they've really got traditional Thai flavor nailed down here. The portions are huge, the prices are really reasonable, and the decor and space inside is quite lovely. I will definitely be coming back here for years to come!

Very tasty food. I had the green curry and I asked for Thai hot. It was not spicy whatsoever. If you like it hot, you may want to ask for extra spice. We also had the pineapple fried rice which was excellent. The portions are massive. I liked that they had seating outside and kept drinks filled. Service was excellent!

The place to go to, for authentic and very tasty Thai food. They also have friendly and efficient staff. Their head chef will cook most things the way you want, and with a smile.

Delicious food. Okay customer service. We needed rice for our dish since it was served with a very small quantity. There was ample delay in serving food. The waitress were sitting across the table in dalliance and conversing during business hours. No body cared or bothered to come by and asked if we needed anything. Not sure how this is TOP 5 best food places in the city 🤔

The food at Thai Spice is quite delectable.

The service at Thai Spice is friendly.

The ambiance at Thai Spice is interesting.

I've been there many times, and their dishes just need a touch more basil. It's probably just me--I love basil:). The only drawback is the surprise extra charge for additional basil. It's the only restaurant out of over a dozen I've been to that have dishes needing basil (Remember what I said it's probably just me? ) that charges extra.

For anyone who thinks a normal amount of basil is adequate, this place is five stars. For me, four stars

We tried the TomKha soup. It was so sweet.
Tried the pad Thai with beef and the beef was chewy and old plus this was sweet as well. The noodle was a plump stuck together.

It took them 30 minutes to bring us the soup and then the food.

It definitely is not the best Thai food in town. Won't recommend this place.

The only good thing was the view of your seat outside.

I absolutely love this place! I always order take out this time I dined in the ambiance is cute and very friendly atmosphere. Pad thai is slightly bland, I've had multiple different things off their menu that were more delicious. I highly recommend the rad nah and any of the currys. If youre going for lunch order a lunch special it comes with the best tapioca pudding I've ever had.

Tried this spot on the way back home(Texas). Found the place on Yelp with about 250 reviews and a good 4.5 stars.
- When I visited the place the ambience at the restaurant is spot on and could not get any better.
- I have tried the Thai red curry and garlic chicken curry.
- is it the best Thai curry I have had in terms of flavor, spice and aroma. From my personal experience of cooking Thai food I could bit have imagined curry being this good.
- I cannot vouch if it's authentic but tasted very authentic.
- they have mild, medium, spicy and Thai spicy levels of heat . I tried the Thai

Winning combination!
Good service & great food. Mr Spearmen was a great server, quickly attentive to our needs. Restaurant is very clean, good social distancing, & employees wearing mask.
Really enjoyed the Large fresh Spring rolls with the peanut sauce. We were very happy with the amount of food per price we paid, even enough to have supper tonight. Rice was soft, vegetables were crisp & fresh. All sauces were outstanding. Many vegetarian choices if needed. You will not be disappointed with this restaurant.
I highly recommend this place.

Picked up some take-out to celebrate an anniversary and it did not disappoint. This was actually our first Thai experience here in ABQ since moving here almost 2 years ago, if you can believe it. It isn't something we often crave, but tonight it definitely hit the spot. We ordered coconut shrimp, chicken massaman curry, pork pad thai, pineapple fried rice, fish filet choo chee curry sauce, and vegetable delight. Plenty of food with lots of leftovers! The stars were the coconut shrimp (perfectly crispy and fried) and fish curry (such a good balance of spice, sweet, and savory), and everything

I love this place! I am so very happy I found it!
They have Thai Tea! Which I lot of other Thai restaurants don't have

I have tried the green curry, chicken teriyaki, pad Thai, massaman curry etc. And I have always been happy with the flavors. I really love it and best of all, my parents love it too. The customer service here is great too!

This place is also very very clean!

You know, from the service to the food / it's really just a five star experience....and shame on me for not updating this sooner!! I have a couple other favorite Thai joints in town but sometimes Thai spice, regardless of the day/hour; always seems to be consistently available - ready to cure anyone's sudden jones for some good Thai food. Delicious food, organized and all served up in a warm/friendly family atmosphere.

Well done.
