thai chow

great. i love thai food and this place is great. the building is tiny and run by a man and his thai wife. she does an awesome job. i had pad thai with tofu and it was great. my date had a chicken dish that he loved as well. try this restaurant!

great, fresh made to order meals. authentic. need to order early though as it is a one woman show and nothing is pre-made.

i've eaten a lot of thai food and this is the best.. it blows my mind that a thai restaurant this good is in fort branch, in. i've eaten at the highest rated thai places in nashville, indianapolis, chicago, louisville, etc., and they honestly can't compare. if the owners would move this place to a bigger city they would be millionaires.

the tasters group visit thai chow. march 19, 2014 the tasters visited wan reinhardt at thai chow restaurant in fort branch, in. wan is the owner and chef, she does it all...shopping, food prepare, cooking, and serve the food at thai chow.

the tasters arrived at 6:00 pm; we were a crowd of 26 people so the small garage/pole barn converted into a restaurant was filled. having dinning experience at thai chow we wisely pre-ordered the food. we also were familiar with the “atmosphere” or better said, lack of. however, the food is the reason to visit thai chow. the train running just feet away and the folding tables and chairs just had to the “interesting décor.”

we ordered a thai favorite to start the meal...pad thai. this dish is usually served with peanuts. wan was gracious enough to prepare a "nut free" version for a taster with nut allergies. then we tasted the yum neur. the yum neur was a delicious and a refreshing iceberg lettuce salad with tender sliced beef garnished with mint, cucumbers, and onions. you can also order yum neur with shrimp. sticky rice is a must for the pad ped pla dook. this is a stir fried catfish with chili paste, peppers, and pea pods, the sauce on this dish is spicy but tasty and perfect on the rice. wan serves this dish and many others with fresh thai basil grown on site.

the last dish on our menu for the evening was panange chicken. the panange can be ordered with either beef or chicken. this is a wonderful blend of spicy from the chili paste and thai herbs, and creamy from the coconut milk. it was excellent! as a surprise wan had also prepared a stir fried dish of crispy noodles for the group. the tasters give thai chow an overwhelming 25 points out of 25 possible...all for the food and service!!! remember to order a head of time or expect to wait.

unbelievable food! yes the place is a little rough but hands down the best thai food i have ever had, if you dont like it you dont know what thai food is supposed to taste like!!

worth the drive!! been here twice, call ahead if your in a hurry but definitly worth th wait. authentic food in a pole barn...doesnt get much better than that;)

delicious. thai chow is hard to find, but the food (especially the egg rolls) is delicious. best food in ft. branch.

hype. i read the raves last summer and drove here from henderson. not scared off by basic set-up. if the food is great, who cares? expecting pad thai to blow me away. it didn't. thought thai papaya was better.

best egg rolls i've ever had.. the best egg rolls by a mile! the food here is amazing as well. please call ahead and place your orders to have your food made on time. shes only one person and can only cook so fast. she has been a local favorite for a long time now. don't let the place scare you. it's much cleaner than any place you would go to that has teenagers working.

best ethnic food in s in. i lived in hawaii for 10 years and am no stranger to ethnic foods of various sorts. thai chow rivals about any thai food i've ever had, and is certainly the best ethnic food int he region. yes, the place is scruffy,, and the hours a bit odd...and cash only. but the food is *great*. i go back every chance i get

quaint but great.. first time i went i felt lost. the restaurant looks like an attached garage. i felt like i was parking in their drive way. but do not judge a book by its cover. the cook takes a little long to make your order but it is worth the wait. solid.

4/5 stars

not your typical restaurant experience...in a good way. delicious, prepared to order thai food. almost like you were invited over for dinner. pad thai was wonderful, but so was everything we had. we will definitely go back!

amazing. i can't ever get over how good this food was. it was my birthday, and i had heard about thai chow from a bunch of professors of mine. we called them up, said we were bringing 13 people and we wanted to pay $20 a person, including tip. we got a 6 course meal(it might have been 7, i lost track) that was just wonderful. the pad thai is unreal. the crunchy noodles are also a must-eat. they were so nice and gracious to us, and we will most definitely be coming back!

don't judge a book by its cover, applies to thai chow. food is wonderful and reasonably priced.

simply awesome!!. yes, the location and building leave something to be desired. however, if you are interested in amazing food for an equally amazing price, you need to go here. there is nothing even close to its quality anywhere in evansville, or louisville for that matter.
