Came here with a party of 5, place is small but has a homey feel to it. Sour pork is their goto item. Sour and spicy. The boat noodle is spicy and has a good umami flavored. The chicken wings are ok not the best. Owners are really nice people.
Cozy decor and service was splendid. Food was delicious and I would definitely recommend trying the sour pork ribs and chicken laab!
The Thai Cafe is my favorite Thai restaurant in the Twin Cities.Right now they only do takeout but it’s worth it.Today I had the pad ka paw and it was perfect. It’s a common street food throughout Thailand, but is rarely prepared well in the States. The Thai Cafe does it well with Thai chiles, holy basil, minced pork, and a fried egg. They perfectly balance the heat of the chiles, the sweetness of the dark soy, and the saltiness of the fish sauce. All of this topped with a beautiful Thai-style fried egg (soft yolk and crispy edges on the white)…. It’s a wonderful dish delicious and simple. If one ingredient or flavor is out of balance it doesn’t work. There’s nowhere else (that I’ve found) in the Twin Cities where you can get pad ka paw that’s worth eating.
It's frustrating to try understand how a restaurant says they open at 11 am, put it on their door to call their contact number to order for take out, but never answers their phone when you call 5 times, and they don't bother to return your call when you leave a message. Very terrible service!!! ?
Thank you for the amazing food and dining experience Thai Cafe! It almost felt like a quick trip to Thailand and back The sour pork, laab & curry deep fried fish was delicious and spot on! No other restaurant can replicate it's flavor and taste! The 3 types of pepper available on the table was an added bonus!! Will be trying other dishes next time for sure!

A business is often reflected upon by its owners and those who surround it. Sometimes amazing and sometimes amazingly bad. Thai Cafe is without a doubt the former, simply amazing! If your a food goer or just looking for food in general to eat and have never been to Thai Cafe, then you must go and give it a try. Before Covid and even after, Thai Cafe continues to cook up some of the best food in Minnesota. From their fish cakes and sour pork ribs all the way up to their special entrees, everything will hit home. Awesome down to earth owners and staff who continue to make positive vibes in the food community. Go and give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!
I lived in Thailand teaching English for a year and Thai Cafe makes food that tastes just like the food I ate when I was living there. Definitely the most legit thai food in the Twin Cities. Don’t miss out on their sour pork ribs and the pad gra pow... yum
We ordered from here for everyone in our office today. The food was spectacular! Red Curry, Fried Rice, Chicken Cashew, chicken & broccoli and more. Everyone loved it. This will definitely be in our lunch rotation! Location is easy to find, and the service was friendly and prompt. Thank you Thai Cafe!
We Love Thai Cafe! The flavors and quality are amazing! Give it a try!
