Thai Gourmet in Independence

Surprisingly good food and nice atmosphere. Overall good thai and chinese food and absolutely love their vegetarian options. Their gourmet tofu is something you cant get elsewhere and definitely worth the trip (I had to double check with the server that it wasnt chicken). Waiting staff very attentive and kind. The owner is also very approachable and funny and will personally meet customers that dine-in. If you create an account online they will send occasional coupons as well!

Food is good, but the young man, who services everyone is fantastic.

Was there last night (9/15/22and everything was WONDERFUL! My host/server was courteous, friendly and super helpful and the food was GREAT! I had a bowl of Hot & Sour Soup along with the the Yellow Curry Shrimp. Fantastic! Wish I lived closer!!!

I would add photos but the food smelled so good we ate it quick. Very satisfying. Very tasty. Delivered just as we ordered it.

The food tastes fresh and is really good IMHO ! I am in the area for work. Ive been there three times in 10 days lol Ive always ordered to go so I cannot comment on wait times.

I picked up vegetable coconut soup. The soup is so delicious, tasty and comforting. I dont live near Independence but I was in the area for a doctors appointment. Ive been craving this everyday since having their soup! Not only that but it has made me want to try other dishes from Thai Gourmet. So far no other coconut soup has come close. I highly recommend you get your Thai on at this restaurant.

Small and cozy Thai restaurant - super friendly and attentive service. We were so exited to get our food we forgot to take photos! Very flexible menu - meat dishes can be made with tofu if desired. Fresh, quality ingredients and packed with flavor.

Incredible food, the waitress was the nicest person I’ve encountered in the last month, comfortable environment- you should eat here!

Love this place , very friendly and never disappointed with the food quality and service! Many delicious food choices and Vegetarian options as well 😌 5 STARS 🌟

The owner is really friendly and the food is really good ;)🥰❤️

The crab rangoons were pretty good. The Pad See was definitely ew, it had like 5 overcooked plain eggs . The food held no flavor and the chicken was questionable. The portion was huge but i only had a few bites and threw it away

Always a quick dinner. Half the menu is Chinese so don’t let the Thai in the name stop you from coming. Smaller restaurant with seating for up to 4, maybe 6. I recommend going with the Thai curry.

Had a fantastic experience, first time here. The restaurant was moderately busy and my order came out very quickly. Very flavorful Thai spaghetti with excellent shrimp and pork. I would highly recommend this location, thank you again!!

Excellent and Quick service! Very flexible with the order when it comes to the heat level. Nice and authentic ambience!

Great food, outstanding service. Definitely stop by a couple times a month, even though its out of my way.

Order took over 40 minutes which is not the actual problem but still not good. I orered Spicy Noodles with chicken and no vegetables. I received Spicy Noodles with vegetables and no chicken. Ordered Potstickers which were barely fried at all, making them something like a half fried fench fry . Second bad experience, will not be going back.

I ordered 4 entrees and a side of mixed veggies for delivery. Two of the entrees were fried tofu (general tso’s and sesame). Instead of cubing tofu and frying it like everyone else in the world, they use extremely thin tofu skin, roll it, then cut that into pieces. Then they batter it and fry it soft, soggy, and somehow a little stretchy. We tried to eat it, but… it’s got to be impossible to not imagine intestines while eating these. I mean… look at my pic and it’s even hard not to SEE intestine. The side order of veggies consisted of at least 75% onion, water chestnuts, and bamboo shoots. The remainder was soft carrots, a piece of broccoli, a slice of mushroom, and couple snow pea pods. $35 straight to the trash and we’re left queasy and wanting to throw up.

This food was amazing. We got General Tso tofu and also the Orange Tofu. Both delicious and flavourful. Pot stickers were also tasty according to another member of our group. Highly recommend Thai Gourmet! Great food and great service!

The customer service at the Thai Gourmet restaurant is spot on! The food is always cooked to perfection. When I enter, I’m always greeted with smiles and positive energy. The green curry with shrimp is by far some of the best in Cleveland. Also their chicken and shrimp curry fried rice is incredible. And don’t forget the bamboo shrimp appetizer, so good. The chocolate lava cake is incredible way to wrap it up. Thanks so much.

I was in the area and decided to stop and try this place and was pleasantly surprised. The staff is great. Very attentive and pleasant. The restaurant is clean and cozy and the food was excellent. So good in fact I came back the next day and the experience was the same. Definitely recommend this place.

Ill keep this straight to the point. Ate here before heading to Top Golf.Pros:Great staffNice ownerOk curryCons:The pad see ew was maybe the blandest and worst version I have had out of the 30+ Thai restaurants I have eaten at in the few states I have lived in. If you can go to Erawan in aurora or Peppermint.Get the curry or maybe try the Chinese food but if you are looking for a Thai noodle dish you will leave severely disappointed

Wow Im disappointed. I ordered sesame tofu. Got chicken. Asked for broccoli with it. $2 for this tiny amount. Theres better places around for $12 a meal.

We ordered pad Thai noodles and fried tofu it was good and owner was so welcoming , the only thing I was little uncomfortable was dinning tables were too close to each other it was little congested.

So I have been visiting Independence for the past week and a half and I have ordered from this wonderful tiny little quaint Thai gourmet restaurant. I cant get enough it is so spectacular in every way from the way they greet you to the food itself which is prepared with love and perfection. You can just tell that this family-owned restaurant really enjoys what they do and it shows in the food and the service. I will definitely be driving here from my new location at least once a week just to grab a bite for sure.

Every experience at this restaurant has been better than the next. The gentleman that serves me, always provides great customer service. Last time he gave me a free coke. I highly recommend trying the pad Thai. Definitely will be returning back!

We were on a trip to Cleveland for a day and since my wife was craving for Thai food we stopped here after a quick search. We were welcomed generously. We ordered chicken szechuan and chicken pad thai. We were tired and hungry after a long drive so we just ordered two entries, ate them fast and were gone. We were the only one dining but people kept coming for pickups. Its probably owned by a family and like all other Thai people i have known were extremely courteous and polite. The food was amazing and the service good. The quantity was good too and our server kept coming to check on us. Please visit this gem of a place folks and show them some love.

Delicious food and amazing staff!! We had pad thai, thai roll, thai pork with pineapple and a super yummy dessert! Elsa and Ariel knows how to make their customers feel welcomed and taken care of. If youre in Ohio, you should DEFINITELY visit this restaurant!!

The BEST Thai food EVER!!! Owner is extremely friendly and fun. Food always comes out spectacular. I have been here many times for dinner and its always a huge pleasure. 100000/10

This is a perfect place to stop if you want to have Thai food on your way to the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. We tried their curry fried rice along with red curry. The service and the food quality was excellent. We didn’t have to wait for more than 10 minutes for the food. Highly recommended!

The service was amazing and the food was soooo delicious! I got the curry fried rice with their ghost pepper powder. The flavor is out of this world. Will definitely be a regular!!

I am highly disappointed in portion size. I put my finger in the picture just to show how small this portion is. I can in at 350 to order general TSO lunch (lunch order is supposed to be 9.95). They charged me 14.95 because it took until after 4 to actually place the order. Ok so I dont complain. .. I heard them say that someone cancelled on a general TSo order and I am under the impression that I got that cancelled order as my food tastes is not freshly made, maybe just reheated.... Anyway, Ill never return and if I miss out due to one bad experience that is enough...15bucks wasted.

I highly recommend this place, especially their spicy garlic chicken with rice.

Their Pad Thai is amazing, and I get it weekly, and their coconut soup is a velvety dream! And this is coming from someone who doesn’t care for soups. The staff is extremely friendly and so pleasant. I would highly highly HIGHLY recommend 😁

It was my first time trying out this restaurant, when I walked in , it was dinner time , around 5pm ish , it seems like no one welcomed me , even though the place was almost empty , with 2 or 3 tables with less than 5 customers to dine in , then the waiter takes my order , I ordered 3 pad Thai , the pad Thai was tasteless , I couldn’t taste the pad Thai flavor compares to other Thai restaurants. I don’t think I would go back there as the food was worse than any other Thai restaurants , the pad Thai portion was big enough though.

Best Thai food I’ve had, ever. Been coming here for years. The staff is sweeter than sugar.And this is also a good spot for vegetarians/vegans! (:

We stopped here on the way back from Cleveland and were throughout impressed.The waiter was incredibly funny, charismatic, and genuine.The food was some of the best Thai food wed had in Ohio. The Pad Thai and Spicy Noodles were amazing!Just here if youre in Independence!

Highly recommend stopping here! The lunch prices are reasonable with a good portion size, and everything I’ve tried has been delicious. The wonton soup is only $4 and I mean it when I say it will rock your world. The customer service is fantastic as well, which always makes me look forward to stopping in. I attached a photo of the chicken and broccoli lunch special, which taught me today that I love bamboo shoots! Eat here, you’ll be glad you did.

I highly recommend dinning at this establishment. Arielle (not sure if thats how to spell his namewas FANTASTIC. So friendly as well as witty. The food was incredible!! I ordered the Pad Thai and the Beef and peppers, both were incredibly prepared. I stopped in based off other reviews and ended up being so pleased. I DEFINITELY will return..

I love this restaurant. I have been here multiple times both for dine in and take out and have always had a great experience. The owner is so incredibly kind. One time he even offered me a complimentary hot tea while I waited for him to finish up my takeout order. You don’t really find customer service like that anymore. Also, the food is super delicious. The shrimp cucumber soup is by far my favorite. It’s so flavorful and very comforting, especially on a cold winter day. The avocado chicken dish is also amazing. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try!

This was a pleasant stop to eat.Being vegetarian I am always on the hunt!The man in charge, who I assume to be the owner, was very kind, rather quick with a joke and fun.The food was okay.Im not being mean in this, it was not bad by any means, however there was no spice to it, which Im accustomed to when it comes to this genre of food.I had the baked tofu which came with peanut sauce.I then had Pad Thai, which is how I always judge a Thai restaurant.The tofu was baked well, and had the flavors baked right in, which is exactly how I like it done.In summary: if you are in the area and would like some Thai food, especially if youre not inclined to spicy food, this is a decent stop.Would I come again?Yes, if for no other reason then to hear the owner joke some more, what a fun guy!

Always great food. Sometimes, yes, the takeout is longer than expected but the taste, quality and freshness are worth it. One of the few small businesses/restaurants I will visit during the pandemic. Super nice owner and never disappointed in the quality and taste of food.

I went to a Thai restaurant and ordered from the “Chinese Food” side of the menu. I thought I would regret it, but ended up quite happy.I ordered the Governor’s Chicken and it was very good. I wish it had a bit of a kick to it, but I guess that’s what the Sriracha is for.Next time though, I’ll try some of their curries and see if they are just as impressive.

Our new favorite Thai restaurant! Had the yellow curry chicken and the orange tofu. The flavors are amazing and so delicious. The service is wonderful and very attentive. The owner/manager is so delightful and personable and cares that his customers are happy. He went out of his way to make a special drink for my daughter. He really didn’t have to but he insisted. Will continue to patronize this establishment.

Ariel is the best! Top notch food (I’ve tried just about everything on the menu). Thai beef salad is unlike anything I’ve had. The wonton soup is the best I’ve ever had! Fantastic hot mustard! It won’t let you down....

Amazing service! Food was delicious (I had Pad Thai with chicken and shrimp). Our server gave us a selection of Thai iced tea and iced coffee. Will definitely be back.

Great host waiter/ owner me and Dad had a great time enjoying the food

Ive always passed by this place and decided to take a leap. Ive had Thai before but this would be a first thats close to home. I ordered the Green Curry....it was Phenomenal!!! The owner is very sweet, friendly, and funny. He makes you feel so welcomed. Now Im hooked and every time I go - I get the same great service and food. Highly recommend!

LOVED this pace! Our server was awesome! So friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. He has us cracking up the whole time. My husband got a spicy sesame chicken with broccoli that he loved! Perfect amount of spice. I got the pineapple fried rice which was also awesome! Pretty sweet too. We will definitely be coming back.

Thai Steak salad was great and son had the mango chicken. He enjoyed his as well. We will go back.

Best Thai restaurant in the area. I had the Red Curry Seafood. My wife has them prepare a shrimp and snow pea dish every time we go there. Another guest had Broccoli Chicken. Every dish is perfect. Staff is great. Nice quiet, clean and romantic.
