Thai Tyme

This is place is really good. I was craving some Thai food and found Thai Tyme. After reading some reviews about the service and food I almost didn’t come. But something said it give it a shot. So I showed up, was seated right away. It wasn’t busy at all. Only few people. Server was nice. I ordered Panang Curry and Crab Rangoon. Everything was hot and cooked fresh. Yes, your not getting high end place but sometimes places like this have the best food. So support your local business. This place is nice and so is the food.

Maybe we just caught them on a bad day but since this was my first experience here, I was definitely not impressed. I’ve been to many hole in the wall restaurants so this 2 star rating has nothing to do with the decor, building or location. If anything, this is an ideal location. The 2 star rating is based on the food. I ordered the chicken pad Thai. The portion was monstrous and I’m guessing that the large portion was to make up for the lack of flavor. When you serve a large portion of noodles along with a lack of sauce they tend to get starchy and stick together. That is exactly what happened with mine. It was overall lacking any depth of flavor. My wife had the lunch special, Thai pepper garlic and a bowl of vegetable soup. She gives the Thai pepper garlic two thumbs up. The vegetable soup tasted like salt water. Over salty and no flavor besides salt. I also ordered pork spring rolls. The rice paper was tough to bite through and pork was bland. I’m not a fan of giving bad reviews and I try to leave my emotions out of it. It was a bummer having this experience since I love Thai food and had high hopes for a killer Thai spot in Peoria near Bradley.

Fantastic delicious food, I love everything that I’ve ordered. My favorite is the yellow curry full of carrots, potatoes and white and dark meat chicken. I can easily make two meals off one order. This is a great place to get take out also. The food stays warm, in the insulated packaging and curries reheat very well.

Great portions that are easy to share. Worth the money. Good food made to order fast. Authentic flavors. This is my favorite place for lunch when coming to Peoria. Since COVID-19 restrictions, takeout sizes are sized well. My family and I love to grab takeout from Thai Tyme and take it to the park for a car picnic.
