Thai Gourmet Restaurant

A good Thai restaurant in the neighborhood with a good range of menu options. The decor is nice with Thai touch and parking is not an issue. Sometime it gets crowded so better to call and ask of require reservation or walk in would work. I found the staff friendly and the food was good. I liked their Masaman curry, and Thai tea.

One of the most pleasantly surprising places to eat in the Galleria. The owners, manager and the servers customer service was wonderful. There is plenty of parking, and the grand entry is welcoming. There are a few elegant function rooms, and spaces convenient for dancing and live music. While I was there, folk dancers and a singer were there for entertainment and it was amazing. I had only appetizers that were presented beautifully, and they had authentic flavor! I would definitely visit again to try entrées. The menu is quite affordable. Thank you, Thai Garden, for the traditional experience! You are a great representative of your country and I hope you do well! Happy one year anniversary! Enjoy!

I've eaten here twice now and it was very good both times. My favorite dish so far is the yellow curry. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is elegant. It's definitely one of my favorite places to go when I come to Houston. There's never a wait when I've come, which I find shocking because every experience I've had here has been lovely. The bathroom is very nice and well-maintained.

As a frequent customer at Thai Gourmet, I have been looking forward to trying Thai Garden. I finally got around to dining at the restaurant and it was a wonderful experience. Firstly, we were seated immediately, and from the moment we sat to the minute we left, the staff was extremely attentive and helpful. We placed a fairly sized order and the food arrived in a very timely manner. Not only that, but I also ordered food to go when we were almost done with our meal and it arrived in good time. Now onto the food - my go tos for Thai food are drunken noodles and green curry. Thai Tea - 10/10 Highly recommend this sweet drink to wash your spicy Thai food down with! Spicy cheese rolls - 10/10 Extremely rich cheese flavor with a spicy kick to it. Absolutely loved the sauce as well. Shrimp rolls - 9/10 They are exactly like the cheese rolls but with tempura shrimp instead. Very good but of course the cheese rolls outshined them a little. Green Curry with Chicken (Medium Heat) - 10/10 Absolutely amazing, rich and slightly sweet coconut flavor curry. I added bamboo to mine (the way Thai Gourmet used to have it) and paid a bit extra for it which was very worth it. Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) with Shrimp (Hot Heat) - 10/10 Another delectable dish by Thai Garden. This dish is fully savory and be prepared for the heat. Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) with Chicken (both Medium and Hot) To Go - 10/10 Medium is still spicy for this dish! If you don’t eat spicy food, order mild. The portion sizes for all dishes are extremely generous. I saw a review saying Thai Garden is not as spicy as Thai Gourmet was, which is why I ordered the Hot heat level for the noodles. This is sadly a very inaccurate review - the food was extremely spicy as Thai food usually is. I would recommend Medium to Mild heat for most dishes, but it was fun to experience the Hot level. I ordered 2 entrees of drunken noodles to go (one Hot and one Medium) and even the Medium is still spicy for this dish. The green curry is not as spicy in Medium because it is coconut milk based. I am disappointed to see many reviews comparing the restaurant to Thai Gourmet. I saw a response to the reviews by the management saying while they are staffed with half of the Thai gourmet employees, they are not trying to perfectly imitate Thai gourmet. I think this is the right approach - they wish to do similar yet unique take on the food and that is perfectly reasonable to do. All in all, I was extremely pleased with my experience here and I can’t appreciate the wait staff enough. This was by far my best Thai food experience so far.

Great Thai restaurant. Food: The flavors were developed and spicing level was enjoyable. The lunch spring roll was a little too oily. Service: The waiters were excellent and very attentive. Atmosphere: Clean restaurant area and bathroom. Very fun and invited vibe. Parking: Ample parking. I came over the lunch hour so it wasn’t full in the parking lot.

I've been here twice when it was Thai Gourmet. I ordered the crab fried rice and deep fried cheese rolls. The fried rice was flavorful and had a good amount of fresh crabmeat. I like that they didn't skimp out on that. The cheese rolls were good with the oil dip. My friend got the drunken noodles with chicken and she enjoyed it. I got a taste of it and I liked it more than other Thai restaurants in Houston, which like to make their dishes way more sweet than savory. This dish was savory than sweet. Whatever paste they used had an interesting flavor. Rolls - 4/5 Crab fried rice - 5/5 I love that they use fresh red roses as a centerpiece and in the women's restroom. Nice elegant touch. Service was good. The waiter checked on us a couple of times. I'll definitely like to return back to try more items on the menu. Not sure if their food is as good as back in Thailand.

I used to be a frequent visitor of the previous Thai Gourmet restaurant that used to be at the same location. I have since moved away from Houston, but was devastated hearing that this place had closed down. I was a little skeptical when my parents told me a new Thai place has reopened in the same spot, but was willing to give it a try. Started with an order of the spicy cheese rolls, which were very familiar but seemed to be lacking the spice I remember. Also got an order of the fried okra, crab fried rice, and cashew chicken. Went with medium heat on everything, but it seems a little more mild than I remember? Maybe that’s my own taste being different. Regardless, I am so happy a comparable Thai restaurant has opened up. While it’s not the exact same, there are many similarities to the original Thai Gourmet. They obviously set a high bar and Thai Garden has its work cut out for them. I’ll be back!

Would recommend you to try the grilled marinated beef.…(Tiger Crying ) Grilled meat is cooked just right. Soft, fragrant, delicious. Served with spicy Thai-style dipping sauce and crab fried rice with real crab meat. It's the best fried rice I've ever had and restaurant decoration makes me enjoy having dinner and drinking red wine. It's a wonderful dinner tonight.
