What People Are Saying About Thai Taste

The Scene – With blue silk lotuses next to the cash register, Chinese paper parasols hovering over the booths and a giant aquarium in the center of the dining room, Thai Taste is a calm, pleasant place to eat. Service is quick and courteous. – – The Food – The extensive, multiple-page menu has all of the standard Chinese fare, as well as plenty of more adventuresome, spicy Thai dishes. Any dish can be ordered mild, medium or hot; to test the waters, try the combo appetizer with Thai toast, tod mun, hot wings and a spring roll, or a cup of the tom yun soup. The chef's…

Good lunch value
by lovefood2009
I have just moved to Columbus, OH about 3 months ago, and so far, this is the best thai place I have been to. Granted, I have only had lunches at Thai taste, the portion and the price for lunch is great. The service has always been fast, curteous and friendly.
Most importantly, the food is flavorful, vibrant, well balanced and just right.
It's not the best thai food I have ever had, but it is the best I've had in Columbus so far.
Try their fried bananas with coconut ice cream.
- Pros: Good lunch menu and good value

Hidden Gem in a Strip Mall
by dolcegirl
The outside of the shop is unadorned and makes the restaurant goer a little curious about what awaits you inside. The bar is the first thing you see when you come in, and then you get to the dining room. There are little awnings and umbrellas over the tables and booths respectively. I thought it was very comfortable and charming. The menu is diverse, offering traditional curries and noodle dishes. Each dish's heat level is customizable, and according to our waitress, they make the chili oil/paste on site.
We opted for the "Hot" level for our dishes which was plenty spicy. I might go another level higher on heat next time if I'm feeling masochistic. Our waitress said she generally opts for the highest heat option (yeow!) but be careful, there are no refunds if your food is too spicy.
I had a beef dish with onion, water chestnuts and carrot in a brown garlic sauce. My only complaint is that my entree consisted of about 60% onions. It's not their fault however, and I could have easily asked for less or no onions. Next time! The spice left my lips tingling, but in a delightful way.
Just because a restaurant is plain on the outside, doesn't mean it's plain on the inside. Skip over White Castle and give this place a try next time you're in the area.
- Pros: Diverse menu, amazing taste!

Can't Take The Smell
by renee24
I'm sorry to say that this restaurant smells awful. We thought that we would get used to it the longer we were there, but we didn't. We won't be back.
