Thai Orchid is one of my favorite restaurants in town! Their food is always made fresh to order, the prices are very reasonable, and they offer a great selection of vegetarian and vegan options. I love supporting local restaurants, and this is definitely one of the best our town has to offer!
Thai Orchid is a friendly restaurant that I stopped here once before with my daughter, and I remembered how good the food is. So when approaching Wichita Falls today en route to my final destination, I searched for it, happening to arrive shortly after their 5pm opening hour. I was surprised (as I was the first time) at how un-busy it was, especially given the food quality. I ordered the Pad Thai with tofu and vegetables. When my server asked about spice, I replied with one word: “Medium.” Sweet Mother of Jesus, that was HOT! I was sweating, but loving every minute of it. I had to ask for a glass of water to try to put out the fire, to no avail. My tongue was smoking for a good 30 minutes afterward. If you are averse to heat, maybe say “Mild” or “None.” I was especially touched by all the employees wishing me—again, the only customer—a Merry Christmas as I exited. That was really nice. I will remember, and shall return next time through town.
Stopped by here for the first time while on a road trip with My Husband and boy were we satisfied! We got our favorite Thai dishes, Panang Curry and Green Curry!! Food was very good!!! Both the steamed rice and fried rice pair well with the dishes! Thai tea was a bit too sweet but mellowed out a bit as the ice melted!
Excellent meal at a good price. One of my fiancee's favorite places and mine as well. I Love their food and they're extremely large menu. The options are fantastic and if you need to make a slight change they are more than happy to do so.
This is our favorite restaurant in Wichita Falls. The food is always perfect whether we eat in or take out. The beautiful owner/waitress is efficient and friendly no matter how busy. We eat there so much she remembers our orders! We always order enough food so that we have leftovers for a day or two. A few years ago, my daughter treated me to a very nice, highly rated Thai food restaurant in NYC. I was surprised to find that much of the food I ordered was similar, and some not anywhere as good as Wichita Falls very own Thai Orchid! It is my restaurant of choice for today’s Mother’s Day meal! Thank you Thai Orchid for your quality food and warm and welcoming service!
Honestly, my favorite restaurant of all time. The owner, Gip is very sweet and have been eating here for over a decade. I wanna say since 2005. I've had a lot of their dishes, but my all time favorites are the Hawaiian Pineapple Curry, I add bamboo and cashews to mine. 10/10. I love her fried wantons. Another appetizer they have is Kai Satay, fried chicken skewers dipped in DELiCIoUS, sweet peanut butter sauce called Satay, homemade. There isn't a lot of meat in them but they are homemade and crispy and perfect, love them with soy sauce. Sweet and sour chicken is the best I've had from any Asian restaurant. The fried chicken pieces are delicious and the sweet and sour dipping sauce is homemade, unlike the usual darker, thick so sweet and sour, this is light, fragrant and thinner. It is hands down 10/10. The Pad Thai is also 10/10. Broccoli beef is high quality and superior to Chinese Buffett broccoli beef, 10/10. Ham and Pineapple Fried Rice, has diced tomatoes which is a great touch, I add cashews to mine and it is delicious, especially with that spicy red sauce in the bottle. It's super cheap too, like 7 bucks for a large portion, so if you're on a budget it's a great choice. 10/10. If you want it super spicy, please tell your server, since the spice level on the dishes are lower, to suit a pallet to that is less accustomed to spice. Another amazing aspect is that the owner, Gip, has kept the prices low even as prices have gouged.
THE BEST!!!!! I absolutely love the owner; She's just SO sweet to us every time we come in. Genuinely so kind hearted The red curry is made vegetarian for me and it's amazing.... Love this place!
Surprisingly food was good, not as flavorful as thai restaurant in bigger cities but it was good food along a family road trip.
