Thai Spice

Thai Spice is one, if not the best place to eat in Iowa City. Some friends took us there more than a year ago and we wouldn’t mind going every week. Their Tom Yom soup is amazing. Alex is an amazing host!

We love eating here when we're in town! It's spring break and we were the only table on a Saturday noon - the only time they haven't been bustling! The service staff were pleasant and attentive. I don't remember the name of the dish but it was number 10 and had crispy tofu with veggies in a spicy brown sauce with rice - my current favorite! We also had a hot and spicy number 12 which was delicious. The restaurant appears to be clean and well cared for.

First time to this establishment. Had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious. The wait staff friendly. The atmosphere relaxing. This is a small restaurant so the seating is limited. But we were seated right away. We arrived at 6:45 p.m. Beer and wine are served but we opted for water. I ordered the fish cake appetizer. 4 on a plate. It was delicious. My friend ordered Pad Thai with beef and I had the Crabmeat with curry and vegetables. Mine came with white rice. Both dishes were excellent. We ate as much as we could and brought home the leftovers. I highly recommend this place. It was a little hard to find but worth finding.

Had a great experience and a delicious meal here tonight. I ordered the Pad Khi Mao. The noodles and sauce were great, and it tasted very good. It had a nice savory flavor, with just a little bit of sweetness. My fiance ordered the Stir fried Crabmeat with Curry. The dish was amazing, and so rich. They use real crab meat, and it comes with a side of rice to serve it on. My son ordered the the seafood hot plate, and I would highly recommend that. The red curry sauce was my favorite sauce I tried, and it was absolutely loaded with sea food. It also comes with a side of rice to serve it on. The waitress was very helpful and informative, which made the experience so much better. I'm very happy that we chose to eat here, and I will definitely come back next time I'm in Iowa City.

Service was very friendly, atmosphere and decoration were very clean and intriguing. Food was tasty and fresh.. The khi mao was sweeter than in accustomed to but it had great flavor and was cooked very well. I asked for Thai hot and got a good level of spice but it wasn't as spicy as I'd preferred but the food was prepared well and had great flavor.

I got level 3 spice and it was spicy but so goodd! I might do level 2 next time. All the food was good, and thai tea was great:))))

Thai spice is arguably one of the best restaurants in Iowa City, food and service is amazing! I had the crispy pork with kale, cold beef salad, and pork pineapple curry, all 10/10!

Really nice Thai restaurant. I went here while stopping by in Iowa City to meet up with a friend. The restaurant was very clean and set up well and the staff was very attentive. The food was good and there was a wide selection. I really enjoyed the pineapple fried rice there and it was pretty fresh. My friend enjoyed his meal as well and we had no complaints. I definitely recommend this place to anyone in the Iowa City area.

I had the Pad Thai spice lvl 5 (1 to 5) with chicken satay. I was the first to arrive at lunch. Tasted great! Spice lvl was perfect. I highly recommend this little nugget when in Iowa City.

Somehow, it's becoming even more amazing than it's always been!

I love this restaurant. The food is fantastic...my favorite is the yellow curry with chicken and mixed vegetables...so good!

It's a nice place for short business meetings and creating memories with your spouse. The food is as spicy as I want. I always recommend Thai Spice.

Delicious chicken lettuce wraps are keto-friendly! And I have to say, the wings rank right up there! Great Thai spot!

Best Thai food around. Service is slow though

Some of the best Thai I've had in the Midwest. Every dish I've tried has been great, and I keep coming back for repeat carry-out. Polite staff, that is quick and helpful. Stop in, it's worth a visit!

Had the most awesome experience!
The staff were friendly and professional.
Would try again 💯!

Our 1st meal was so great that my family all wanted to go back the next night and try completely different dishes. Both nights we ate family style, trying a wide variety of dishes. The quality of the food & service was fantastic

First time trying Thai food. If I'm honest, I'm not a huge fan of the food itself, but really like my experience with this restaurant. Clean, very welcoming, traditional cultural decor. Waitress was polite, food was served quickly, fresh & hot. Some items weren't as spicy as I had expected, but the waitress did bring out different seasonings to pump up the spice. Thai chicken wings and crab Rangoon were my absolute favorites. Awesome experience.

Visited this place once while driving through I-80. Will surely go back next time I am in Iowa City. Great Thai food! Good service

I really enjoyed my visit to Thai Spice. They don't de-tail the shrimp and I personally was very horrified that I didn't notice it until after taking an entire mouthful with a single shrimp underneath, but that was more of a me problem than anything! Parking is good, and the prices are really nice. It's sort of "fancy" looking, and quite Thai, which I loved about it. I would certainly recommend it to anyone.
