Review from m k.

incredible thai food. i am indian and love all ethnic food. i would rank this as one of the best thai/ethnic places i have eaten, ever.
great spicing, delicious appetizers, beautifully presented. my all time favorite is the king and i and i would rank this at the same level. if you like the king and i and saffrom(for indian food), you will not be disappointed. -
Review from Andrew C.
This place is more 3.5 star worthy, but leans more towards the 4 star range.
The environment is nice and quiet and the waitstaff was very friendly and attentive. I'll admit I wasn't expecting too much from the look on the outside of the building but was pleasantly surprised when the food came out.
Got the yellow curry with chicken and spicy eggplant, both of which were very filling and satisfying.
The deduction in the star comes from the pricing, as it is more expensive than many of my favorite Thai places in California...
Note: There is a parking lot so no need to worry about street parking! -
Review from Picha M.

Have definitely had better. Overall very nice restaurant and atmosphere/decor. Ordered take out. Overall taste of the food was towards the sweet side. Not very complex flavors that you would expect from thai food. Also somewhat pricey. Many better alternatives in St Louis for authentic Thai food, but admittedly not many in west county.

Review from Stacey T.
HIIIII - YAHHHHH!
That's my karate chop sound because this place kicked some serious ass. I am giving this place all sorts of thumbs up, stars, high-fives, you name it. It rocked my socks off. Twice.
New Year's Eve. Blind date. I'm awkard, and apparently my friends think I'm strange. I think I'm strange.... this isn't a confesional? Oh, shit, back to the review.
It was awkard enough being on a first date, blind date, internet romance... whatever you want to call it, but this place was beautiful and gave us a few things to chat about before the cocktails arrived. Ornate gold carvings hung from the walls. Beautiful oil paintings that presumably capture the essence of Thailand...
The waitress was super friendly and dressed in authentic Asian costume, plus she was smokin' hot but not rubbing it in my date's face. She got a good tip. The beer list was good, as was the wine list. I was pleasantly surprised to see a good drink list. I feel like most Chinese/ Korean/ Thai restaurants only have Shapporo or whatever.
Our food was coursed so we had time to chat and enjoy our adult beverages. The presentation was lovely; beautiful china and nice flatware. The chef delivered our food personally. I had the yellow curry chicken dish, it was divine. He had basil chicken and claimed it was also tasty... too bad we were so nervous, we didn't really get into chowing down like we should've... or at least like I wanted to. :)
Our check was presented in a timely fashion and unobtrusively.
First date success! Thank you Addie's. I'll be back! -
Review from Jakki C.

My friend on were on a Thai kick, well more so I was on a Thai kick and he was just along for the eating part. I found Addie's and thought lets give it a try.
Upon entering we were greeted by a very friend young lady. She was eastern European, pretty and such a cute accent.
Addie's was really just ok, b/c it was a tad over priced and compared to where we usually indulge in Thai food, this was a bump up in service, decor and over all ambiance, but it's still the same ol' yellow curry in the fancy china bowl it's served in.
I think I'd go back just to see what I thought the second time through. -
Review from Amanda B.

My coworkers and I frequently order take out from Addie's and have yet to be disappointed. I think by now I have sampled at least 75% of their menu. All of their curries are fantastic and the quality is comparable to the the best around. The Panang is probably my favorite nearly tying extra spicy Green Curry. Ooh, and the Roasted Duck Curry is sooo good also! Their Pad Thai is the best I have tasted and when we're all sharing, it's always the first to go. Finally, the staff is always extremely friendly and helpful.
If you like Thai food, you have to check this place out. -

Review from Zac F.

I'm a student and Thai lover, and this place was a great alternative to where I usually go on the Delmar Loop. Food was fresh and prepared very nicely, had the pad see ewe which was not too saucy and was very good. Usually I make a mess of thai dishes, but this one was very clean and did not spill on my crotch at all.
overall great place, little on the high end price wise for thai places but the extra few dollars are worth it for sure. -
Review from Chris S.
Bay Area, CA
I've only been here once but I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Great red curry, spring rolls and the jasmine tea is very memorable. I don't live out in the area anymore or else it would be a regular place to visit without a doubt. Next time I am in Chesterfield during the dinner hours I will certainly pay another visit to the Thai House.
Note: I have not tried the meat dishes. -
Review from D D.

Having traveled extensively around the world, I always want authentic ethnic food. So I make sure to find out that the owner and chef are not chinese selling "thai" food.
Well, the owner is indeed from Thailand and the food in my opinion is great. Me and co-workers go there often for business lunch, so I have had a lot of the dishes on the menu.
Service is also great. I highly recommend this place for authentic Thai food. -
Review from Jon T.
We have made Addie's a somewhat regular place to dine, thanks in part to dining coupons but more due to the food. We really like Addie's and have never had a sub-par meal. Great soups, great appetizers and great main courses. This past visit I had grilled trout with broccoli. It was not so much a typical Thai dish, but was well prepared with a nice grill smoke and a good sweet chili sauce as garnish. We started the meal with Tom Yum Goong, that had excellent fresh shrimp. I normally end up with coconut milk based soups but this time veered off to the clear type. This was rich, deliciously tangy and very good. A small bowl is good for two people unless you are making soup your meal. We also had fried sweet potatoes that were served with a sweet sauce with ground peanuts. Ms T's main course was Seafood Basil. It was a very large serving of good mixed seafood in a dark somewhat sweet sauce. She let me eat most of the mussels, but the rest was hers. I can also recommend the Roasted Duck Curry which I had on my previous visit.

Review from Son V.
Saint Louis, MO
The food is a little bit below average. The pad thai was not good. The tomyum soup was good but too salty. The papaya salad was tasteless. The thai iced tea was way too sweet. It was pricey though.
The service was really nice and helpful. But I don't think I will visit it again. -
Review from Sabrina C.

One of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis, and maybe ever. Sooooo good! The satay appetizers are out of control - perfectly seasoned, cooked beef, with both a peanut and a sweet sauce to accompany it. The fried sweet potatoes are also delish; we order them for our toddler but end up eating half of it ourselves because it's just so good! The pad see hew with beef is hands down the best I've EVER had, and the Massaman curry is also quite noteworthy. The spicy eggplant would win over even non-veggie lovers - it's just that awesome. Tender, flavorful, awesome texture; I've ordered this with rice when I was looking for a "light" meal. Can't say enough. Authentic, friendly, delicious. I LOVE THIS PLACE. Go!

Review from Jimmy L.

Addie's food is authentic and excellent. My fave, Green Curry, they do it right. Dumplings were the hands down favorite of the appetizers - but nothing slouched. It's a refined and "take your time" dinner atmosphere - don't rush, savor the experience.

Review from Andrew T.
I will make it three. The staff here is very friendly. I can't award 5 stars for food, but I will exercise a little benefit of the doubt and award 4.
This was a groupon (or something similar) find by Mom and Dad - turned out to be a good one. We stopped in for dinner early in Thanksgiving week. Our appetizers were their standard pot stickers/dumplings, and something the name of which I forget, but was in the form of almost lettuce wraps with veggies, dried shrimp, peppers, limes, and a sort of sugar mixture. The dumplings were truly excellent - great filling, lovely chewy wrapping and a very good sauce - slightly thicker than usual, which I really liked. The wraps were...interesting. We wanted them with smoked trout, but they didn't have that available, so this was the helpful substitute that was recommended. They were tasty...but the sugary topping was way too much. And I swear there was little chunks of lime plus the rind in the wraps. The shrimp got a little lost in all that, plus the chile peppers. If you cut the sugar down, and maybe ditched the lime rind in favor of more fresh lime, they would be pretty good. As it was, we wouldn't get them again.
Entrees were panang curry with chicken, a beef and green bean dish in a thin brown sauce, and my mothers' pad see ew (sp?). All were very good, with huge portions. The panang was rich, creamy, and heart healthy (thanks to that coconut milk) although some of the chicken was oddly chewy - my dad thought it was reminiscent of abalone...but I didn't have any that bad. The beef dish was, I think, the winner, with beans just the right amount of crispy and soft, nicely cooked beef, and killer sauce, which was the perfect complement to the sweet, thick panang. Mom's dish isn't really up my alley, but it was good, with a sweet sort of glaze on the noodles and nice veggies.
Worth noting that their heat-o-meter goes from 0-5, if I recall, with 0 being no heat, 1-4 being quarter teaspoon increments of chile, and 5 being Thai hot. Or maybe 4 was Thai hot, and 5 was listed as "unpleasant." Well - OK...Dad and I got both the panang and the beef at level 4, and unless the scale is really non-linear, 5 would be very easy to handle. Given the size of the dishes, a teaspoon of chile isn't that much.
Price was pretty par for the course - maybe a little cheap even when you factor in the portion size. This one is on the list - we would definitely return. -

Review from Douglas B.
St Louis, MO
This is a top notch Thai restaurant in West County. Since Thai Buree closed I was really missing some good local Thai. I was thrilled but what we got in its place. Addie's serves delectable food at a great price. Serving sizes are generous enough to allow for doggie bags and each dish is unique and delicious. If you are sensitive watch out for spices because they use authentic levels of pepper so Medium for most dishes will have a kick. I love the curried salmon and the large is big enough to share. The vegetarian Pad Thai is also delicious. They add on specials as well. Service is quick and polite...often by the owners wife and the decor is casual but very pleasant with lots of decorations from Thailand. Can't go wrong here. I plan to go back often.

I agree with the Dwight B. Went there recently with a friend and was very favorably impressed with this restaurant. I am not an expert on Thai food, but this was delicious, the personnel so friendly, the place was charming, I could go on and on .... all good.

Review from Dwight B.
Saint Louis, MO
My wife ands I went out for dinner on Friday night intending to try out a new French restaurant at the Olive & Woodsmill intersection. When we found it closed, we were surprised and disappointed and thought of going to Manno's next door but they were busy. Thankfully, we decided to go to Thai Bu-ree across the street. We had dined there a few years before, were not impressed, but thought we would give it another try. Then came the second surprise of the evening. Thai Bu-ree is no longer Thai Bu-ree. It is a new place calling itself Addie's Thai House and it is remarkably different than Thai Bu-ree or any Thai restaurant I have been to in the St louis area. The interior is quiet and tranquil, like a purple sunset. The tables are covered with white linens and are set with the simplicity that eludes most fine dining establishments. The artwork and dinnerware are very elegant. The staff were pleasant and beautifully dressed in traditional Thai dresses and shirts. Their service was polite, prompt, and professional. We ordered cocktails first: my wife a Singapore Sling, which she said was very good; I had a Chivas rocks, generously measured and served in bucket-like tumbler. We then ordered ordered a bottle of Cabernet Franc, never having tried this wine before. It was lighter bodied like a Pinot Noir, but more similar in taste to a Cabernet Sauvignon but not as tannic. We were not unsatisfied with our selection but next time we will try another wine on their small but thoughtful wine list that features more whites than reds. Lastly, the food was outstanding. We ordered a large Tom Ka soup with chicken and it came out in a flaming tureen, from which the waitress served it to us in small cups. Then we had the Roasted Duck Curry and Beef Basil. The staff brought these out in beautiful serving dishes with a pot of rice. The food was very good, better than the what is served at other Thai establishments in the area. For dessert we ordered the Thai custard with Sticky Rice. Again, we were not disappointed. Everything was delightful. The food, drinks and wine were all reasonably priced, perhaps even inexpensive for what is delivered. Addie's Thai House unquestionably lives up to the idea of the hidden gem. Only now unanswered is how long this gem will remain in obscurity.
