Tommy's Thai

Not my kind of thai. What's the deal with Thai food in Denver? I've tried 4 different places and they were all lackluster in their pad thai - too saucy, yellowish-orange colored gook is different than any other city I've eaten thai at. I've found an early warning sign - if the menu has a chinese section it's going to suck.…

Nice to have a choice. I'm a fan of Thai Basil but every now and again go over to Tommy's instead. The ambience is totally different and I can get glass noodles, which I love. So, the space is very urban, which is great, except that the din of your fellow diners makes it very hard to hear over your own table. Whoever built it wasn't thinking of the acoustics. The food is quickly served, fresh and very good. I like the variety and think the prices are generally reasonable. LOVE the green tea ice cream but wish they would sometimes have some specials on the Singha. If you are in the neighborhood, it's worth checking out.…

Hair of the dog?. I've always been a fan of Tommy's. But today not only was I charged for a dish i found a HAIR in, but their lunch portions have gone from decent to pathetic. Got the vegetables in garlic sauce today. When the hairLESS dish was delivered, I was less than stoked on the pound of rice served with the few veggies making up my plate. Been loyal. Will never go back. Goodbye Tommy's Thai.…

A Cap Hill Standard Not To Be Missed. A legendary (and one of the very first) Thai restaurants in Denver. The introduced us to the cuisine and many followed in their ways! (for better and worse!) Nice balance of price and product. Great lunch spot!…
