Spend money elsewhere – With so many other good restaurants around, including much better Thai places (esp. True Thai) I will never go back to Chiang Mai Thai. The service was awful, bordering on outright rude and the food was mediocore at best. The curry was mostly coconut milk with absolutely no other flavor or heat, even though it was rated "hot" (2 peppers). Our waiter left us waiting forever to order drinks and then mostly ignored us the rest of the night. Two good things about this place: pleasant ambience and lots of ... read more

A great overall experience – *UPDATE* I'm writing this nearly 2 years after I first reviewed Chiang. Since then, I have been here on at least 4 or 5 occasion and have had the chance to sample many dishes...all good! I especially love the muslim curry! And, contrary to many other reviewers opinions, we recieved excellent service. Drinks were pricey, but really good. I will continue to go back!

It cant get any better – I've had Thai food in many cities and Chiang Mai Thai is about as good as they come. The Tom Yam and the Tom Kha are perennial favorites. My wife and I can never get enough of the Penang curry or the Massaman curry. After eating here there is usually no room for dessert. Neither Sawatdee nor the King and I come any close to Chiang Mai Thai in quality of food.

Ching Mai Thai review – I love the atmosphere and service. the food is also wonderful, but it lacks consistancy in it's spice level. It's levels 0-5 are great, but what may be considered a 1 one day is a 3 the next. Overall the food is great and staff is wonderful!

Great experience – Comparable to the Thai restaurants of Manhattan. Loved the Calamari. Chicken Basket appetizer was bland. The Green Curry with Scallops was excellent. So was Chicken Stir Fry in Ginger sauce. Service was decent for a busy Friday night.

simply the best! – I have eaten at many Thai restaurants in the Cities incl Sawatdee, Taste of Thailand and the King & I, but this place is definitely my favorite and my wife's, too! We just love the decor, the atmosphere, the food and the comfortbable booths. I also enjoy the beer selection which incl many of the brown ales and red lagers that I prefer. Service is iffy at times, but overall, ok. We don't come for the svc, we come for the food! I personally think their green curry is the best. I am usually uncomfortably full... read more

NOt bad – thought it was pretty good. Portions are quite large for the price. Food is overall quite tasty. My wife especially liked the Tom Yam soup. I thought the curries were so-so, not too spicey. Thai is typically spicier, but I suppose it's slightly watered down for the Western palate. Still, quite enjoyable. Unfortunately the location makes for difficult parking. The restaurant also seems perpetually crowded, making it tough to catch the attention of a server. Also, very cramped.

Nothing Special! – I have eaten here two times now. The first time it was ok nothing special and now today I went there and there was no teste to the food at all. The service was mediocre to average at best. The is the sixth different Thai I have been to since moving here and I will never go back.

nice evening out – This is the bst Thai restraunt I have been to yet. I have lived all over the midwest and have become quite a critic of Thai food. This is a place that would keep me coming back no matter how far it was!!!
