“ The food is amazing and the service too. We keep coming back often and have been regular customers since a few years now. The owner is very sweet. Overall the best Thai restaurant we’ve been to so far. ”
“ YES, YES and YES! The reviews about this place were right! Absolutely outstanding service. They were so accommodating to my vegetarian diet and being able to remove onions. What we tried: Fresh Spring rolls - no meat. Delicious and the 2 sauces were a perfect combo for dipping. Next time I will ask for tofu in them. Pineapple Fried Rice! Amazing flavor. This was hands-down my favorite of all we tried. There are raisons in it... and I, personally, loved that. Pad Thai with Tofu. This was also great. I would probably ask for more sauce next time. But the ingredients were fresh and tasted great. Fancy Tofu! My husband's personal favorite (and he is not a vegetarian). The sauce in this dish is vibrant and plenty. It comes with a side of white rice to soak up the flavor. I also loved this one. Last but not least... drinks! Thai Iced Tea - first time ever having this and im an iced tea "buff"... Yum! I would stop in Just for this - even if I wasn't hungry. Same goes for the Thai Iced Coffee! What a wonderful flavor. Perfect blen of Thai flavor and Coffee flavor. Friendly staff, comfortable/calm atmosphere. Very Clean! And fresh, flavourful food. We are in Tampa every 3 weeks. We will be back to try more! ”
“ Quaint space but delicious food! The food speaks for itself, we ordered Edamame, Beef Pad Woon Sen, side of fried rice and their Mango Sticky Rice (full course). The value was definitely there, this all fed two adults with plenty leftover. Very flavorful dishes overall, and we would definitely recommend for great Thai food. ”
“ Had the pad Thai. Really good. I prefer mine less sweet but every restaurant has their secret sauce right?! Appetizers were amazing! Had the Thai chicken wraps ... could have had that for dinner lol next time I want to try the fried rice. Oh oh ... have the sticky rice with mango ”
“ After a disappointing sushi experience next door, I walked into Palm Thai—and I’m so glad I did. The food here was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite had a depth and balance of flavor that honestly stood out from other Thai and Vietnamese restaurants I’ve tried. What really impressed me was the uniqueness of their seasoning and broth—it wasn’t just the same familiar flavor profile you find at most places. They clearly have their own touch, and it works. The beef pho was rich, clean, and satisfying, and the fresh rolls were exactly that—fresh and packed with taste. This is the kind of place that earns repeat visits. It’s a one-of-a-kind gem, and I’ll definitely be coming back ”
“ I’ve had a lot of Thai food in the Tampa area and Palm Thai is a cut above other restaurants in every way. My family and I went on a Tuesday night close to closing hour and every table was full. The owner, Ben, is from Bangkok and really takes good care of all his customers, takes time to engage and cares about the dining experience of every person who walks into his restaurant. My family ordered the Pad See Ew, Pad Woon Sen, Pineapple Fried Rice and Tom Kha Soup. The first thing we noticed was that Palm Thai is not afraid to be bold with their flavors, whereas other restaurants are often more mild. The noodles were perfectly cooked and chewy, each dish is huge and loaded with vegetables, we had a full meal of leftovers the next day. We also loved the garlicky, savoriness of each dish. The table next to us ordered more to go during their meal and we are already planning another trip back to try more dishes, very happy this place is so close to us and will definitely be back! ”
“ This is a beautiful little Thai restaurant located in a strip mall in New Tampa. It has a nice atmosphere and is clean. The staff is friendly and so helpful. I have food allergies and they made changes to my order that allowed me to enjoy their delicious food. Everything we ordered was very tasty, fresh, well cooked, and delightful. We will definitely return. ”
“ Hands down the best Thai Restaurant in Tampa. Excellent service and the food is delicious. We ordered spring rolls and the mains Red Curry with Chicken and Massaman Curry with Chicken and Sauteed Mixed Vegetable with Tofu and all of us loved the food. Our only place we will go for authentic Thai food that is large portions and very reasonably priced. ”
