Thai Delight a wonderful place to eat

by rgdlm

My friends and family love to eat at this wonderful Thai resteraunt. Thai Delight has authentic Thai food along with other popular oriental dishes. Now this is not a fancy place. It is rather simple in fact. The food is amazing and comes in healthy portions. Pricing is resonable and you are going to love the food. The larger the group the better, we order several different dishes and then pass them around family style and it makes for truly great values. For those who are not familiar with Thai food I have a few suggestions.

Paad Si-ew; Pan fried flat noodles with egg, broccoli, and sweet black soy sauce, and beef. It is also available with pork or chicken. This one is a family favorite.

Geng Mas-sa-man; This is a wonderful curry dish with potatoes, peanuts, and we have them put chicken in it for our meat selection and it is served over rice,

Som Tam, or Papaya Salad; Fresh green papaya mixed with fresh chili, garlic, tomato, lime juice, and grilled shrimp sauce, and served with sticky rice. This is a great appetiser and you probably want to have them make it mild unless you really like spicy food they can really bring the heat..

And for dessert: Mangos over sticky rice. Delicous, but you have to catch them in season.

• Pros: Delicous Food, nice portions
• Cons: None

Excellent Thai Food

by Edmonster

I was never a very big fan of Thai food until my boyfriend took me to this place. I absolutely love it! Every dish I have tried has been wonderful. The owner is a very friendly lady who makes you feel extremely welcomed. We always get a few dishes to share and there is always more than plenty for everyone and even enough to take home. I love this place and recommend it to anyone. The only down side is it looks like a dive. The outside looks better now that it's been redone, but the inside is sort of lacking. Don't let if disuade you though, the food is great.

• Pros: Amazing Food, Great Service, Friendly Staff
• Cons: Decoration and Ambience are Lacking

Best Thai in the valley

by dizzydoggy

This is by far the best Thai restaurant in the valley. The food is delicious and the owners and family are wonderful! You'll leave feeling like you made fabulous new friends who cooked a great meal for you. The curries are delicious and the noodle dishes are great, too. The only con is the decor, but even that has its own charm.

• Pros: Great food, fabulously friendly owners
• Cons: The decor, though the restaurant is always clean. Also, no free refills on soda.

Great Thai Food!

by allkar

I love Thai food and have tried several Thai restaurants throughout the valley but Thai Delight is my favorite. The prices are great, the service is quick and friendly and everything I?ve tried on their menu has been delicious. The decor leaves much to be desired so if you are trying to impress your date, this is NOT the place to do it. However, if you just want great food for a great price then check it out.

P.S. There is an Asian market that is a few doors down from Thai Delight that has some great deals on exotic items you can?t find in your average grocery store.

• Pros: Great Food
• Cons: Decor

BEST THAI ANYWHERE!!!

by toriv

I discovered Thai Delight soon after moving to South Jordan 3 years ago. The food is the best Thai that I have ever experienced. I go there about 1-2 times a month and I've tried a majority of the menu items, all with 100% satisfaction. The food is fresh, surprisingly inexpensive and the portions are large enough to take some home for later. Not only is the food a delight but the owner is too! She's very friendly and makes you feel right at home. Thai Delight wins hands down over the overpriced/less than tasty east side Thai places that I've patroned. Thai Delight is in an older strip mall, has a small seating area and not a lot of ambince (ok, I rate it a 1 out of 10), but if you let that turn away you'll be missing out!

• Pros: AWESOME FOOD, LOW PRICES, FRIENDLY SERVICE
• Cons: AMBIENCE

If you like great Thai food, then THIS IS THE PLACE!

by SkyMtn

Hey, what can I say? Yeah, you have to go out to the west side of town to visit this restaurant, but, since it is just off Bangerter Highway at 6400 South it is easy to get to and easy to find.

I discovered Thai Food several years ago and have since visited most of the Thai Restaurants in the Metro Area. I also just spent two weeks in Bangkok, Thailand, earlier this Summer. The food in this restaurant has to be some of the best Thai Food in the Western US, and, unlike SOME foods, Thai Food does NOT improve with price. The price here is VERY reasonable. I went there again, straight from my visit to Thailand and I can only say that the food is authentic and wonderful. I have truly been disappointed with the Thai food at some better known eateries, but if you like the real deal, then This Is The Place!

• Pros: Possibly the best Thai Food in the Western US.
• Cons: It is out of the way for some people. Just west of Bangerter Highway.

Thai Delight IS a Delight!

by beverooni

What a find! We had heard it was good but when my son and I visited it we were doubly surprised. The service is excellent (we have been back once a week since our first visit) and everything we have tried has been exceptional. Worth the drive. You won't be disappointed.

• Pros: Fast service, Excellent Thai
• Cons: Traveling distance

Hidden Gem = Secret Delights!

by zchance

Thai Delight can't really be called undiscovered after having received top reviews from every newspaper in SLC, yet remains below the radar of nonfoodies. Chowhounds who revel in delectable, exotic morsels all speak the name 'Thai Delight' in hushed, reverential tones. Accessible to culinary adventurers and cautious newbies alike, for Thai newbies it is important to know that the word 'curry' doesn't exclusively refer to the yellow powder in the aluminum Durkee canister ubiquitous in every grocery spice aisle in America. Curry is a generic term for a blend of spices with many flavor profiles e.g. yellow curry's predominant flavors come from cumin and turmeric, neither of which is used in any other curry. Yellow curry is pungent - green curry is mild and slightly sweet. I'd recommend the mild green curry w/chicken or the mild Thom Kha Kai, for the more advanced, Panang w/pork or Larb w/sticky rice.

• Pros: Inexpensive, Delicious, Flexible
• Cons: kitschy decor
