Thai Bistro

Great Thai food at a good price for Santa Fe. We love this place. They get a bit busy so order your food to go 1.5 hours before you want it. The portions are good sized and the flavors a really good. Remember Thai food gets it flavor from the amount of ‘spice’ you get. I would not order less spiciness than medium so that the flavor is still pronounced.

I went due to the high and favorable ratings and was disappointed. Restaurant staff was not friendly at all.

I ordered Tom Kha (coconut soup) but was given the Tom Yum (lemongrass soup). The Tom Yum was tasteless with tiny bits of lemongrass a 2 star rated dish. I did not want to tell the staff about the wrong soup as they didn't seem happy to be serving anyone. My partner said next time we can try the Tom Kha, but for me and this restaurant there will be no next time. I also ordered Pa Nang red curry with shrimp. Very small serving and sweet with very little peppers and mushrooms.

I called before arriving to see what their covid seating was and was informed that it would be take out containers but there was seating available. I sat outside in a sad looking outdoor seating area and even though it is summer time all the flower boxes were empty. No effort or pride taken to make the outdoor seating area inviting or presentable.

I gave the Thai food a 3 star rating and it's more accurately a 2+ stars. Its my opinion that if you have had Thai food before this one is far from anything good. If you like just okay Thai food, you should be very pleased. My meal cost just under $30 and I can't recommend this place to my friends and would not return. I am baffled at the 4+ stars rating on Google.

So glad to have found this small take-out Thai restaurant! At least once a week, I pick up food. All have been delicious. My favorite is the Drunken Noodles, Basil Fried Rice and the Lemongrass Soup. I am happy that they now have online ordering since they get so busy. Sometimes it is hard to get through on the phone. Their busiest time is around 5-6:30, so order early for a later pickup.

Great to have good quality Thai food in Eldorado. Ordered the Massaman beef curry and Pad cashew with shrimp. Both dishes had complex flavours and were quite authentic. Unfortunately, the beef was tough and potatoes a little undercooked in the curry. Will definitely order again from here, but get a different protein next time.
