The establishment provides excellent service and delectable cuisine. I highly recommend trying their roasted chicken appetizer. The salads and sushi are also quite delicious.

Cozy Thai dining spot with excellent service. I met my son for dinner and we were not disappointed. He tried the eggplant dish and I had the curry with out appetizer being a sushi roll. Food was delicious and plentiful we had to take to go containers. I also really liked the interior decor.

Small space with pleasing interior & subdued lighting with decorative screens on windows. Vestibule dimly lit except for decorative lights set into the wall – soothing and interesting. Comfortable booths. Staff pleasant and attentive, but not intrusive. Lunch special soup/ salad/ eggroll plate pleasing. L5 Pad Peanut Sauce (Chicken) was great. Tasty peanut sauce. Nicely cooked vegetables and chicken. L9 Pad Gratiem - Pikthai (Beef) nicely seasoned and cooked. Mushrooms & onions very nice. D5 Tripple Chocolate Cake was rich and tasty. Had a chance to try the Shrimp Pad Se Eaw - the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Pleasant outdoor seating area would be nice in cooler weather. It was pleasant to look out on from the cool interior seats. Atmosphere is not high on my list of required attributes, but in this case it really adds to the experience.

We have been to this Thai Spice several times, but not as often as we would like because--like many Thai restaurants--it closes in the afternoons. That is when we tend to eat but we were running late and gave it a try. We were glad we did. The dining area is not large, but clear, airy and intimate. The servers are very friendly and helpful. I had the Pineapple Salmon Curry with a side of mixed vegetables. Both dishes had a great assortment of vegetables and the fish tasted especially fresh. My husband ordered the Massamun curry with chicken. We forgot to say how spicy we wanted it, we assume what came is medium hot. The curries on both dishes were delicious! At this time you can bring your own wine but they are in the process of applying for a liquor license.

Absoultely loved this place . It's going to be my new go to spot if I'm ever in the area and craving Thai food . The portions were a nice size and my friend and I shared appetizers and a dish all were delicious. The staff were super sweet and checked in frequently ( I hope this is the same service when it's busy as we went during a slower time). They also took pictures of my friend and I in different places in the restaurant for cute memories. I definitely recommended Zapvor!
