Thai Kitchen in Durango - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

One of my favorite place to go in Durango! The curry fried rice is to die for. Another favorite is the pineapple fried rice and the Thai ice tea. Must try!

Their yellow curry with chicken is amazing!

This is and has been my favorite Thai in town. I do like another place but have had such horrible customer service at Chang to ever go back. And I’m lenient with my expectations for restaurants. But Thai Kitchen really rocks it, I just wish they delivered or offered door dash. This place meets the mark for customer service and reliably great food. I’ve never had something I didn’t like, but I especially love the Pad Woon Sen and Tom Yum and all the fried rice dishes. Curry not my favorite because I like it thicker, but the taste is wonderful. I know it sucks to not have the indoor seating anymore, but I guess that’s what the pandemic turned it to. You can still snag an outdoor table if the weather is nice and they will check in on you. Lovely people.

Food was delish. Service was good, but a little slow cause they were very busy. Take out only, but they have some outdoor tables in the full shade.

The chicken fried rice is so overpriced. 2 of them are $38 which is crazy!!! The rice is dry and burnt. they put these random huge junks of tomatoes in them. I’m pretty disappointed and will not be returning.

Great food! I was surprised by the quality of the food, so fresh and tasty. Side note: I got little frustrated because my order came out late but the first bite of the noodle made me happy!

Delicious food, efficient pick up process

We ate on the patio. Our sever was friendly and the food was delicious.

Nice little thai spot. Their main course meals are delicious! I normally get takeout, and they pack the container with food. The spice levels are real, so start mild and work your way up till you find a level you like. The only disappointing items are the appetizers. They are not bad, but I feel the pricing isn't matching up to what you get and doesn't feel like they are made in-house, which I would expect at that price point.

We always stop here when we come over from Pagosa. Spicy and full of flavor.

Ordered a large take-out order for my staff, every dish was clearly labeled as requested and they had it ready right on time. Process was easy and efficient. They even gave us a free order of crab rangoons! Love this place, great food, great people, and a great place for good eats. Will forever be a customer!

Best pad Thai I’ve had in a WHILE! Saucy, flavorful, and perfect spice! Will come back next time we’re in town!

Our favorite place to eat when we visit! Hands down! They went above and beyond for us tonight when we showed up a few minutes past closing. The crab rangoon were fresh, crispy, just phenomenal. Pad thai had amazing spice and flavor (we got medium spice level). Never had green curry before and WOW we were blown away! We will be back every trip!

Ordered a curry seafood dish and it smelled so awful, the seafood had clearly gone bad. We immediately sent it back, without even tasting it and risking food poisoning, yet they would not credit us the amount for the food. Ordered a chicken dish instead, and got only a tiny portion for $17. DO NOT WASTE your money here!

Used to be really good but several bad meals in a row. Don’t recommend anymore.

Food is SPICY.(adust accordingly) Very tasty, most of the orders are to go as there isn't much space to sit.

The food is super flavorful! Hot is super hot (spice level).

Worst thai ive had from a resturant Ordered pineapple fried rice with pork. Canned pineaple, chewy bland pork. Fried rice is twice as good at a.natonwide fast food chain. Dine in unavailable.

Thai Kitchen was delicious and the lady running the front of the restaurant was very friendly and hospitable. I ordered the green curry that looked as good as it tasted.

Clean and friendly. I wish I had taken photos of our order but we ordered red curry and spring rolls. The curry good overall BUUUat was watered down, the spring rolls had udon noodles and shredded iceberg lettuce that looked that was already 3 to 4 days old, I didn't even eat them so I can't say if they were good. Overall it's a place to eat for passing by and satisfying a thai food craving but not something I would pick again.

What’s the point of paying $20 for a noodle stir fry when the noodles are only 1/2 inch long and soggy? Stick to the rice dishes and soups.

So delicious! I love everything here, especially the drunken noodles.

Recommended thai restaurant in Durango. Togo or pickup.

Thai Kitchen really does a wonderful job. I am fully Vegan and they always make sure to take care of me. Quick and easy and tasty 😋

Super friendly service and delicious food. We stopped here while passing through town and would highly recommend. Just know that dine-in is limited to a few outside tables.

This is a better spot for takeout than for dine in but it's pretty tasty stuff.

TAKE OUT ONLY with limited outdoor seating available! We LOVED our meals! We got Spicy Basil Fried rice. (Note Thai hot is actually pretty Thai hot here, unlike some other places we’ve been). Drunken Noodles were good too. And the Soft Spring Rolls are great! Super friendly service. Definitely will be back! About $16 for meals. Take out containers are nice! I’m taking mine honestly to use again when I send leftovers with friends!

Our attendant on the train ride recommended this resturant. We were a bit disappointed that it was take out only which is why low atmosphere score, but we really wanted Thai!! The food was so good! Very flavorful and the lady that took our order was sweet and loved talking with her while we waited for food.

Thai Kitchen provides great food in a convenient location. Every time I order food there it is always a good experience and hospitality.

Visited here on MLK day 2024 and was informed that they didn’t offer dine in. It doesn’t mention that there’s no dine in on their website nor yelp which is surprising. Fried tofu was decent and the spicy sauce I asked for was flavorful but plan to order the food as take out ahead of time instead of reaching there to know that there’s no dine in.

Edit - the original experience I had here has not been repeated; this is the best Thai restaurant in durango, we order from here often and their food is great. — EDIT: spoke with the owner who was apologetic, helped refund the dish and did not require that we bring it back in. Since then we’ve ordered food from here multiple times and it’s always been very tasty. Hate to rate this place so low as their food is tasty and the woman that works at the front was very helpful and friendly (she gets 1 extra star), but won’t order from here again after a really poor experience I had. I placed a large order - 6 dishes, all vegetarian (I was very clear about this): 1 Tom Yum soup, the vegetable spring rolls app, 3 curries with tofu, and a Drunken Noodles with veg and tofu). I drove out to pick this up after a major snow storm and the roads were terrible. A vegetarian member of our party began eating the drunken noodles only to realize that there was no tofu and the dish was filled with chicken (though the container was labeled Veg/Tofu). I called to request that I get a refund for that single item, as I didn’t want to drive 15 minutes back to get an exchange in terrible weather. I was very polite about it and was told it was no problem. A few minutes later received a call back saying that the owner has a policy whereby they only offer refunds to customers who bring the problem food back, and that I’ll need to bring the dish back to get my refund. Absolutely ridiculous policy - your clear screw up requires I be further inconvenienced. The message here is clear - this restaurant doesn’t trust its customers. This is Durango, I’m not trying to screw you over for $15 on a >$90 takeout order that I included a tip on.

My daughter and I visited Durango. We ordered the Yellow Curry Fried Rice and Green Curry, both with Veggies and Tofu. We had walked a long way to the restaurant, in the cold, to pick up our order because we didn't have a car. I came back to our place, again in the cold and very tired, and we received a random fried rice and a Green Curry with no Tofu. I called the restaurant and explained to them politely that we didn't get our correct order and explained to them the situation. The person on the phone was very rude and told us that we had to walk all the way to the restaurant to get the correct order or a refund. I asked if we could send a picture somehow, but they also said no to that. We had to order dinner from another place. Some sympathy or a sorry from the person on the phone would have been nice and would have increased this rating. I am disappointed by the customer service. I should have been cautious from the other reviews about this place.

Could have had a little more chicken ! Abt 5 bites is what was in my chicken curry ! It was delicious 😋

Thai Kitchen delivers an authentic Thai dining experience that goes beyond expectations. The dishes are a burst of genuine flavors, from perfectly balanced Pad Thai to black sticky rice with custard. What sets this place apart is not just the fantastic food but the outstanding hospitality of the host. Their warmth and attentiveness elevate the dining experience. For a taste of Thailand accompanied by impeccable service, Thai Kitchen is a must-try.

I’m a regular at Thai Kitchen, but tonight wasn’t the best…maybe a new cook? The rice was a bit crunchy and didn’t seem fresh. My curry seemed to be separated and there was no tofu in it like I ordered. ☹️Hope it was just an off evening because this is one of my go-to places.

Only outside two table seating, had patio heater. Take out order. Food was very good.

HAD I know they use plastic containers only for even Dine in - I wouldn’t have gone to the place. After SOOO Much of Awareness around the World on not to Use Plastic - especially for food - And Completely Avoid for Hot temperatures food - I don’t get how Restaurant business still are soo Unbothered of customers wellness. I hate hot food being directly poured in Plastic boxes. AND THATS THE MAIN REASON I PREFER DINE-In Versus Take Away In USA. Food Tasted really very BASIC. I had to trash more than half of the food, as I didn’t feel appetite after the Plastic and the taste of Food. I will Be extra careful next time and Specifically look for plastic usage before I enter the place. This place - keep aside plastic part - the food quality taste was mediocre. About service - specifically Mentioned that I will take the hot jasmine tea later and not with food. People in USA - most restaurants just want to get there work in one go - they never have any Order/Steps for Course. All appetizers, main course and drinks and almost dumped on customers table at the same time. Sooo different from rest of the world. I grin when PEOPLE here talk about Customer Service, Bcoz it doesn’t exist.

Very friendly and delicious food.

This is a good American Thai restaurant. The good is good with friendly services. Unfortunately you can only sit outside as they don't have an indoor sitting.

Even with ordering a low level of spice, it was still pretty spicy. We shared 4 entrees, and overall, the food was excellent and would go back.

Take out place with good consistent food. Good organization and fair prices.

Super disappointed in the meal I got yesterday. The curry was very watery although had a decent flavor. The chicken had a chewy texture and didn't taste good. The massaman curry had a nice flavor with added veggies that were good. Unfortunately the tofu was cut in too large chuncks and had a horrible texture. The appetizers (combo) were good. After coming back from San Francisco, this meal was a dissapointment.

One of the best restaurants in durango. Great menu, able to accommodate most diary needs, and great location just off main. Highly recommend!

Great Thai food at the right price. Takeout only but they have a few small tables outside.

Me and my girlfriend had the spring roll deluxe and the Pad Thai Seafood… it was so good we forgot to take a picture of the most delicious Thai food! Highly recommend, will be visiting again soon!

Food was good. There was no indoor dining. Only take out and tiny crowded sidewalk patio tables.

Best Thai in town and they have vegan options and know what that means, so have at it! I get the Pad Thai every time at level 4-5 spice which is actually pretty spicy. Best meal downtown.

The food is very delicious and the flavors are bright. I order from here often. What erks me is there is no consistency on portion size. Sometimes you pay 14 for a full container of soup, sometimes you pay 14 for less than half a container of soup. That is insanely annoying because half the time you dont get a full container. So I'm asking for consistency! Thank you and the food is very tasty!

Carry out only but have nice little 5 table outside dining area...right along street but no real issue. Pad Thai was outstanding; refreshing to find medium spice is actually medium. Rangoons were perfect and peanut sauce was delicious. Recommend!

AMAZING food!! Best Thai Iced Tea I’ve ever had! Also, quick and friendly service- going above and beyond to make our patio experience perfect! Highly recommend!

Did a take out order. Pad Thai combo and some appetizers. The Pad Thai was all noodles no vegetables and hardly any meat. The meat that was there was not good. Had a huge chunk of pork that was 50% gristle. To top it off it was WAY over salted and not cheap. The appetizers were underwhelming and nothing I couldn't ary fry at home. Very disappointing and couldn't finish it.

OMG. Seriously.. this is legit Thai food!! I've eaten the real stuff in Thailand, and been disappointed ever since. But this place!!! Yessssss!!! Finally amazing Thai food in USA!! In Durango of all places. So, so good. And service was super friendly. Ordered takeout so unsure of the atmosphere, but I'll be back!!! Woohoo!!!

The Thai Kitchen is a fantastic place to order Thai food. It used to be a dine-in service, but now is exclusively take out. They are very fast, and the food is always delicious. I've never had to wait longer than 5 to 10 minutes from their estimated time for the food being ready. Highly recommend the phad Thai noodles, and Phad See Eaw.

It's... competent and the prices are on par for Durango. For what's it's worth, it's better than the other ones.

I originally wanted to order Pad Thai with shrimp after seeing it on the menu at $18.95, but the server informed me that it was actually $20. I doubt that is the only price discrepancy in the menu. The Pad Thai itself was extremely salty, as if it had too much MSG. Didn't taste much like any Pad Thai I've ever had. Bonus star for the server, she was pleasant.

Ordered the dragon noodles and it was amazing! Highly recommend!

Best noodles in Durango. The staff are always friendly and their service is prompt.

100% best Thai food in Durango!!!! Amazing service, all staff are super kind and caring. Food is done quickly, accurately and the flavors are always on point!!! ♡

Great veggie options and the pickup window is super handy. We had two noodle dishes and both were very tasty. Good portion sizes as well .

It's a good find for an authentic thai restaurant. It is flavorful and most importantly the food is hot when it is served. Be cautious with spice level, it is plenty spicy with mild.

Best pad thai! After you try Thai Kitchen's there is no going back. All their food is amazing and consistent with flavor and quality. I have never had to wait longer than 30 minutes to get my food. When my mom was pregnant this was her go to place since they do not add GMO to their food. Great customer service, and the employees take care of their customers.

The veg/tofu pad Thai is amazing!! I personally couldn’t handle the heat (mild) so next time try no heat for me but it was bomb! The woman that checked us out was a sweetheart, gave some suggestions, and the place had great customer service. They got hit with 5 orders at once and all the food came out so fast! Keep doing what you’re doing guys!

Satay chicken and pineapple fried rice are legit! Service is rough though.

Hey Guys! It's FREEZING outside. We don't want to wait for our food or pay for our food out in the freezing cold. Think about being a bit more hospitable and letting your customers into the lobby. That's fine if you don't want to do sit down dining, I guess. However, these days people are way more concerned about getting sick from standing out in FREEZING cold than they are about getting Covid from the cashier. The whole covid thing is kinda played out by now. Thank you for listening!

I’ve given Thai Kitchen a few chances. Sometimes they don’t look at orders online so you end up waiting for another 20 minutes once you get there, and despite ordering extra veggies with pad Thai, there isn’t a veggie to be seen, so you end up paying $20 for a small container of noodles and whatever protein you choose. Durango really needs a good Thai restaurant.

I don't eat here any longer, I asked for Thai hot and was served a half cup of minced habanero. Seriously, that's not even sort of creative or authentic. Google suggests I review the place every time I drive by though so, there you go!

I wanted my red curry spicy so I ordered it hot. She warned me that it was hot so I ordered medium. It's perfect. Still super spicy hot but if you like spicy get the medium. You'll thank me later. Good red curry with beef. Ordered to go it was ready when I got there. Very friendly staff. Thanks. 😃

Oh god this place was the best find in our trip. It was a rainy day and they dont have a dine in so we ordered and enjoyed the food in car and everything we ordered was bomb. We ordered Fried Dumplings, Thai Egg rolls, Soft Veg Spring rolls (too good), pine apple chicken fried rice, Spicy Basil Fried rice (fried rice was best nicely done a safe option) Grilled chicken Peanut Salad (this was a first try and it was unexpectedly so good the chicken was so tender and juicy with all the sauces do try this) Overall If we visit Durango again we’ll taks out for sure. If you’re reading this, just go order already!!

Absolutely delicious!!! reasonably priced great portion size and super friendly staff.

The food is always amazing, We always take our food to go.

I got the Tom Kah Soup with shrimp which is a coconut soup local to Thailand. It was delicious and tasted like it does in Thailand. My dad got the garlic pork stir fry and also said it was really good. Would definitely recommend this if you’re looking for local thai food.

Amazing Vegan pineapple curry. All their curries are Vegan and they have many more Vegan options. Would highly recommend if you're visiting Durango!

Ordered a pickup and got the wrong order! Super frustrating to get home and everything is super spicy (I ordered no spice for the kids) and not even the correct items. I double checked my order. Yep, I said no spice and I didn't get the chicken satay I ordered.

Mediocre. I had a hankering for thai food. I had some pretty disappointing take-out from here about 7 months ago but decided to give it another try. First off, dine in is not an option here and hasn't been since before COVID. The owner should state that on their website and/or social media, as I saw many people find this out as they approached the restaurant and then just walked away disappointed. My bf decided to order anyway and eat outside in the rain. Unfortunately, both dishes were bland; the beef in my dish was gray and flavorless. The dishes looked like thai food, just didn't taste like really anything. Would not recommend.

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to. Great service. Out in 10 min. My bf and I ordered the curry fried rice and the Tom yum and both were absolutely excellent! 100% recommend.

Very disappointed. Pad Thai was slightly better than store bought frozen. Way over priced.

We were sad. It was not that great, they got the order wrong and made my daughter’s spicy, not made traditional at all… AND noodles for 3 cost $80! Aftertaste and feel of MSG.

Me and my friend ordered the pad Thai gang-dang and the soft spring rolls. There is a takeout window adapted for covid safety and our order took around 15-20 minutes to be ready for pickup. The kitchen smelled so good and the spice is real! The soft spring rolls are vegetarian and the peanut sauce was very yummy :)

We absolutely Loved it! This was our first time in Durango and somebody from our hotel recommended this place. Loved the customer service and the convince of this restaurant. We ordered a lot of dishes and loved EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Highly recommend checking this place out if you love spicy Thai food.

This is by far my favorite restaurant in all of Durango. Not only is the food exceptional and delicious every single time, but the staff is so incredibly friendly and personable. I have never once had a negative experience at this restaurant and I have probably ordered nearly 100 times at this point, literally. They have a large selection on their menu, and the prices are incredibly fair for the portions. This is always my first choice for takeout, and they also have great outdoor seating. I seriously can’t recommend this place enough, this is where I take my friends from out of town, it’s where I want to eat on my birthday every year, and the red curry is the only thing that makes me feel better when I have a cold. It’s like magic when you’re sick! They even sell the broth on its own, and I drank that when I had lost my voice and it was like a medicine all on its own. I can’t explain how amazing this place is!

Garlic Chicken was incredible today. 1st visit and now that I know this is excellent I will be a supporter of this restaurant.

Check your take out as they forgot our rice!

After five days camping we were looking forward to our hotel and a good meal we didn't have to cook:). We ordered beef Panang curry, chicken larb, Tom kha gai soup and a Thai iced tea for a total of $60 odd dollars. The curry had about four pieces of beef and a few measly bits of broccoli in it, the soup was seemingly devoid of coconut milk (regular milk?!) with no real flavor and the chicken larb was so over the top salted we had to add it to the tasteless soup to make it edible -- my boyfriend couldn't even stomach it after a few bites and had stomach issues the entire next day of travel. We ended up throwing it all out after a few bites and eating almond butter sandwiches. Super disappointed as owner seemed nice.

We ordered takeout at the window and they were super fast! It was really good. I think I got a stir fry. Definitely need to go back.

Very good! It was fresh, hot, and fast!

Wonderful service and food! We got the yellow and green curry, even the mild is hot but loved it. The portions are generous as well, plan to be back!

Great food! Would highly recommend. I personally love the Pad Thai with veggies and tofu. The food is hot! Make sure to order with-in your heat range. They do not have indoor seating at the moment. They do have seats outside with heaters though.

Very pleasant experience, the staff were so helpful and the food was very good :))

UPDATE after 7 months: must have got someone new because spring rolls were cut in half and fell apart, curry was runny as soup, and the phadkeemow smells of urea. Also put in pork instead of beef. Extremely disappointed as this place used to be great. I feel cheated. The pic is of curry, not soup. ~~Fantastic food~~

Tom Kah soup, Pad See Ew and Pineapple fried rice. Spectacular food. It was hot and ready in 10 minutes.

The best pad thai!! I travelled to Thailand a few years ago and was still comparing it to Thai Kitchen. The only thing I have to say is the spice level is not consistent. I always order medium and sometimes it’s a good medium spice level, others I can barely eat it because it’s so spicy! But we still go here at least 2-3 times a month because it’s so good!

Good Thai food and helpful staff

Not a ton of options in town, but this is one of our favorites for Asian food. We really like many dishes here, but especially the Pad Thai Gang Dang (sp?) and the custard on black sticky rice (dessert). Additionally, the owners seem to be operating with good sense regarding the pandemic and restrictions by switching to takeaway and outdoor seating.

We come here often. Food is great

Ordered take out from here one night while we were traveling through based on a recommendation from our hotel concierge. It did not disappoint. Pineapple fried rice was a favorite. Fast, friendly service. Worth checking out!

Used to have really good curries but the past few times I've ordered takeout they have been super watery. Previously they had been really rich/creamy. They also used to have this spicy sauce you could get on the side (fish/lime/pepper/?) but no longer offer it. That sauce was a game changer. Still ok food, but it seems like the quality has gone down and nobody likes watery curry... Edit: Also, as someone else mentioned, the spice levels are really inconsistent. Sometimes you order hot and it's really mild, other times it melts your face off. Last green curry I ordered was actually red in color because of all the red chile flakes they put in there (ordered hot).

I recommend the seafood basil stir fry. It was the best thing I've eaten in a long time! Get the mild unless you're really brave. There were four fillets of fish and I lost track of how many shrimp there were!

I love this place! It's super quick service and the food is always so good. The only thing I have is that the spiciness levels can be pretty inconsistent for the mild meals, but it's honestly worth the gamble. This is one of the few restaurants I go to frequently.

Good food but very expensive compared to other restaurants of its kind. Since Covid they were doing takeout window only and then started asking for a tip. The past couple months we noticed they already include a tip on the takeout bill and we have to ask them to remove the $5-7 or so for two meals just to pick it up from takeout which we do not believe is right. No one is waiting on tables and cleaning so we don’t understand the point of the tip especially at that amount. You need to plan on $35 to $45 for 2 to eat there.

Will, have to change policy or lose business come winter because they force people to stay outside and dine or pick up and go Plus didn't see it advertisement for their hours?
