    I'm writing an update because this place has definitely gone downhill since they first opened. Let's just say I miss when they were just a hole in the wall restaurant on Torrey Pines and Flamingo. They had no other stores other than this particular one. They cared so much more about their food and customers back then.

    Fast forward several years later and you'll find that the owner has gotten VERY cheap. My family and I ordered the spring rolls with no chinese sausage and 3 yentafo soups (vegetarian style). Sounds simple enough. When we order vegetarian dishes, we're saving the business money by adding less ingredients (right?). The appetizer came out and it had chinese sausage. When we notified them of the mistake, they took it back and fixed it. Not a big deal. Soups came out and we received the regular order. There were still little seafood critters swimming in our soup. Again, we didn't make much of a fuss. We just told them and they said that they would fix it. Round 3, soups come out again. I didn't even take a bite when I saw squid still floating in my soup. I then realized that these cheap bastards just strained the soup and gave it back to us. Isn't it lucky that neither one of us was allergic to fish? The worst part was that the owner was standing right there and he recognized my mom. For your regular customers, wouldn't you make sure that they were satisfied? I mean, my entire family comes to this restaurant a couple times a month. When I say family, I'm talking about 20 of my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandpas, and grandmas. The owner didn't even bother coming up to us and apologizing. My family being Thai and all know exactly how this dish is made. It really isn't a back-breaking task to boil some noodles and vegetables. It isn't an expensive dish to make either. For this, I demote you Archi's. I'm very disappointed.

    what a serious let down this place was... Never before have I been to a Thai Restaurant that does not have lime?  I seriously asked them for a few limes, they only had lime juice to offer?  Huh, this would be like going to seafood restaurant and asking for a side of lemon... Sorry, we only have lemon juice to offer? Very, very strange...

    The food was certainly decent, hence the three stars... But, really, the food was just average... We started out ok with the grilled pork salad.. And though this was good and the spice level was nice at an 8, it suffered from the same thing all the food there suffered from.. The lack of fresh ingredients.. Everything needed more Cilantro, Thai Basil, and Mint... And of course, freaking LIMES...

    We also ordered catfish, fish cakes, stuffed chicken wings, and pad thai..

    The chicken wings were stuffed with this off tasting sausage mixture.. it was pretty off putting..

    The fish cakes were really nice.. But, so are mine and so are many, many places.. The pad thai was a good version however, it needed limes..

    The catfish which we ordered at a 8 spice level came out bland and flavorless.. The fish was not cooked all that well and it was sitting in a sweet thick sauce...

    All in all,  this place is an average to good restaurant... I do not understand the reason for such high praise..

    Waitstaff was extremely nice, they  were quick to refill our Arnold Palmers which, was clearly the best thing we ordered..

    Is this place better than Lotus of Siam? I do not think so..

    On to the next place.

    Poor service at lunchtime.  

    Food quality of veggies was a bit underwhelming considering the fact that this place is rated so high.  The sauce for the Prik King was not my favorite, and I usually order this at every Thai restaurant I can to test.

    Good Thai Iced Tea!

    After remembering coming to Archi's and having a delicious meal, I convinced some of my friends to trek across town for some Thai dinner. However, after eating here, I wonder if I was struck with early memory loss because our meal was varying in degrees of deliciousness.

    Hitting nearly dinner time, the place wasn't too busy, so we were seated immediately. The waitstaff were very attentive in refilling our drinks and answering miscellaneous questions. One of my friends ordered the Yellow Curry (heat level at 3/4) while the other ordered Pad Prik King (heat level at 0 - she's a big wuss when it comes to heat). I decided to get my favorite, Pad Thai (heat level around 5).

    All of our dishes came out on a timely basis, but some were let downs. My friend's curry lacked much of its heat and also much of its flavor. Literally, the Pad Prik King had more spice than his curry - sad considering what they requested heat wise. He ate a majority of it, but set foot to devouring our dishes instead. The Pad Prik King and Pad Thai were good, but nothing extraordinarily spectacular. Our mounting hunger after watching two movies resulted in both the noodle dishes' demise, but all three of us agreed that we've had better elsewhere.

    Ultimately, Archi's is not what I remembered it to be years ago. Prior to my first visit two years ago, I kept hearing so many accolades for this place, but after this recent visit, I'm not sure if it's well-deserved.

    I remember when Archi's first opened back in 2003-2004 and it was this little hole in the wall Thai place not many people knew about. I only knew about Archi because I own the hair salon (self promo : haircolorxperts las vegas) in that same shopping center. Though the years have passed since Archi's opened, the quality and service you get have always remained constant. The prices have increased about $2 dollars over the years, but I will still remain a loyal Archi's customer. The only reason I'm giving them 4 stars is because they are closed Mondays, and I can't get my Thai tea.

    PS: They have the best thai tea in town.

    This place is right across the street  Kenny Guinn J.H. I went to Kenny Guinn years ago and this place got there after I left. But I went there and it was pretty good considering they have drive thru! Imagine that a drive thru for Thai food. Pretty convenient. Service was ok, but they could pay a litte more attention to detail in food.

    Pretty solid Thai food, comparable to Thai food in LA, not too far from the Strip. Other pluses are that its cheap and clean too.

    Enjoyed:
    - pad see ew with tofu
    - beef thai salad- note: when they ask how spicy you want it, I would think about what you would really say (on scale of 1-10 with 10 being spiciest) and then take it down 1 of 2.

    Definitely recommend this to anyone looking to escape the Strip, for some normal priced, good tasting Thai food.

    Also, I think there might be drive through? But not sure, as that would be the 1st Thai drive through Ive ever seen! (see pictures)

    Food was good. We like spicy food and asked for scale 10 spiciness and we got it! We ordered papaya salad, Pad Kee Mao and Pad Thai. Pad Kee Mao was better than Pad Thai.
    The decor was very refreshing, too.

    Everyone stays on the strip in vegas but we found a gem off the strip!
    This place is really good! It's nice a quiet, the price isn't too bad, and the Thai food is legit! :)

    Warning: When they ask "how spicy?" they have a 1-10 level. 10 being most spicy. We should we could take it since we usually we medium spicy level so we asked for a 6. The waiter looked at us and said that we should get a 3. We said are you sure? we can take spicy food! And he said trust me! So we asked for a 4 for the tom yum soup. The soup came out and a 4 was spicy!

    We went back the next day because the food was so good and that time we ordered tom yum with a level 3. Perfect! :)

    I don't know how spicy a level 10 is but I'm glad we listened to the waiter the 2nd timea round.

    I would definitely recommend you to check out this restaurant if you go to vegas!

    Craving thai food?

    Vegas yelpers... thanks for the awesome reviews!

    Came here on Friday for lunch with another fellow Vegas elite yelper!

    I had the pad thai noodles with chicken... no spice... and I was in love! I would love to come back for another thai fix soon!

    Good location, indoor seating, clean, causal dining, okay customer service, no waiting. Good for small groups.

    Thai me up!

    Archi's is the best Thai joint in town!! All my local friends have told me so and I believe them! Their lunch special is from 11am-3pm (3pm, i think?) and it comes with salad, soup, and an eggroll + your chosen dish for about $7.00.

    Whatever you order, from the curry to pad thai to papaya salad, the server  will ask you "How spicy?" The scale is from #1-10. I like medium spicy, so i usually ask for spicy level # 6. If I feel like I want medium spicy that leans towards hot, I'll ask for level #7.

    Since this place has 3 chains all located in different parts of the town, it makes it very convenient to get your Thai food fix wherever you are. The ambiance of this place is very soft, clean, and inviting. I love dinning here. I always feel like I am at a resort. You know what i mean when you check this place out.

    Side note--
    If you have a big party, I suggest you go to Archi's Thai Cafe (located on W Sahara Ave). Its a bit more open and spacious. Archi's Thai Kitchen is a bit small and on the cozier side.

    Yum.  After I've been pining over Pin Kaow and then finally loving Surang's, now I've tried Archi's.  Las Vegas does NOT have  bad Thai food.  Boy am I happy about that.  I love this place too!

    What I ordered:

    Pad Thai - Yum!  It has a spicy kick to it, I definitely recommend it because it's different than the normal sweet taste. I don't normally eat this dish either but EVERYONE likes to order it.  But it's really good here!

    Catfish Delight -  This was ok, it was a little on the saucy side, but I still finished the entree pretty much all by myself.

    Panang Curry w/ Beef - BEST I have EVER tasted.  It was so good!

    Mango with Sweet Rice - Good, but a little much on the coconut sauce.

    If you love Thai food, go here!  I loved it!

    Came here with my Elite yelping buddy Jewelyn.  Wow, the interior is very different from the one on Ft. Apache and Sahara.  The decoration or theme makes you feel as if you're in someones house and the seats are very comfortable.  Good service and a nice clean restaurant.

    Now as far as the food goes, Archi's is one of the best thai food in Vegas.  Everything is good but my favorite, which I also recommend is the spicy eggplant (you have an option of which meat you'd like too add on it). There pad thai is is great too but the one in asian thai cuisine is slightly better, but still delicious nonetheless.

    I recommend this Archi's over the other one because of its interior theme and comfortable eating.  It gets pretty busy during the evening so I suggest coming in the early afternoons so you can enjoy the food in peace.

    OH ARCHI'S ! You have a place in my belly. The service is great, the food is so yummy, prices are reasonable, I feel like its the best thai in town (just my opinion!)

    It's addictive. Once you eat here, you'll want to pick up takeout a few days later. Yes it's that good! Oh, and to date I have never had to run home immediately following a meal IF you know what I'm sayin... I probably just cursed myself though. Oh and they opened one by my house on rainbow, but I still love the Flamingo location the best!!

    Thank you Yelpers of Vegas for leading me to this great  choice for dinner :) On my visit here my party tried the following dishes and were not disappointed!

    - Pad Thai - tasted great! The portion pretty much matched the price and we ate it all up.
    - Spicy Basil - Here they rate their spicy from a level of 1-10 which is probably too much of an array to tell how much spicy you really want. I was with a party of people who couldn't handle their spicy so a 3 was just right for them.
    - Satay - delicious appetizer, serving of 4 so it was the easiest to split.
    - Pad Pak - great choice if you want to get in your veggies with some Thai spice.

    Overall, it was worth the trip off the strip for saving some money without giving up great taste. This place does have a lot of space but I'm still very glad that I made reservations because it filled up that night! Service was very friendly and my water never reached the bottom :)

    My second favorite of the Archi's locations around town. They have all the same great menu items. Some cosider this their favorite location because it's the original, but I enjoy the rainbow location's ambience and service slighty better. Still great and definitely worth the trip here though!

    As with all the Archi's locations I stick with tofu, pork, beef and vegetable most of the time. The chicken always tends to be a little dry and overcooked. Just my personal opinion. Pad Thai, Papaya Salad, Curries, Tom Kha with Veggies and Thai Jerky are my favorites, but there really isn't a bad thing on the menu, except the Thai Macaroni, just stay away from that!

    Happy eating!

    This restaurant is certainly a hidden gem! It is a little ways from the strip, but it us worth it!

    There were two of us and we ordered the Kung pao chicken and shrimp pad Thai! We also got an appy of the Thai spring rolls.
    The very best part of the meal was the low price!!

    The first time I tried this restaurant was almost 4 years ago.I am of a Thai and Chinese origin so I have been eating Thai dishes all my life. I know that the restaurant doesn't really target Thai person but still they should make at least decent food. My friends and I ordered green curry,stirred-fried spicy flat noodle.The green curry was a bit watery(green curry supposed to be a bit thick and creamy with coconut milk),the spicy flat noodle was so so and the way they cooked the flat noodles was not quite.The service was ok not excellent.

    I was there once and decided not to go back there again.To me the only good thing about this restaurant is its ambience.

    Wifee says ' I want Thai '. Ever obedient, I grab the iPad, load the Yelp app and search for Thai. Archi's rates highly, but there's three Archi's I note. Eeny,Meeny,Miny,Mo. Archi's Thai Kitchen it is. Jump in the car with wifee, teen daughter & fussy eating 10 year old.
    It's easy to find and great parking. Two cop cars outside, I park right by them thinking they were watching the neighborhood and the car will be safe. No cops in the car! Hum?
    Go into Archi's and law enforcement were chilling at a table and seemed to be enjoying a plate of Thai food. The restaurant is bright, not large and reminds me of where you would eat your breakfast in a Hoilday Inn Express. I don't think that's a bad thing but it was very bright. Friendly server sits us immediately and gives us iced water. I order beer & Chardonnay as is my tradition. WHAT? NO BEER OR WINE? I sob..... It's clearly marked on the Yelp review but I didn't notice. Dumb. Anyway the food; we order Sesame Toast and egg rolls to start. The toast is deep fried and too greasy, egg rolls were fine. 10 year old McDonalds aficionado wants plain chicken , they fry him up plain chicken and it was great. Teen wants chicken fried rice and a Mongolian beef dish, ordered 3/10 on the heat/spice scale she thoroughly enjoyed it. Wifee ordered the same, but being a spicy food bigshot, she went for 7/10. Good choice, wifee happy. I take a chicken cashew dish , 5/10 (pathetic , I know ) and was equally happy. There were many Thai clientele eating and the place was charming.
    Great food, $70 before tip and we will be back to Archi's but I believe the other locations will give me a beer to quench my thirst and alleviate the heat should I go crazy and order my food 6/10 on the spice meter.

    My favorite Thai restaurant of all time!! One of my old Thai co-workers back in Cali recommended this restaurant when I told her I was moving to Vegas. Boy was it the best advice I ever listened to! I no longer live in Vegas, and I still crave for it. It is usually the first place I go to after I get off the plane! We always order the same things - beef salad, tom yum soup with shrimp, basil fried rice with beef, the catfish or the pad prik king with chicken. I usually choose spicy level #7 out of a 10 being the highest. Last time I cam here, the tom yum soup on that level was too spicy b/c all I can taste was the spice. I will definitely turn it down a notch to maybe 6. LOL Man, I want some now!!!!

    Only downside is that the workers may not be too fluent in English. Well, homegirl didn't understand us too well, and I definitely didn't understand her. We still got what we ordered though, so it's all good! ;)

    Archi's the OG of the three Archi's over town and it's definitely a good stand by for good authentic Thai food.  Everything I've eaten here has been consistently super tasty!

    I recommend....
    The good ol' standby's:  Pad Thai, Anything spicy basil, Panang Curry, Chicken Satay, Tom Yum Soup.

    Conclusion:  Consistently.  Authentic.  Tasty.  Get it spicy!  =)

    As good as it gets. In a town rife with AMAZING thai places i dare say Archi's is THE BEST.
    It beats everywhere just on the merit of the food alone. If an angry ogre facefucked you with this food and punched you in the stomach, you'd thank it.
    Fact of the matter is that the ambience and service are good to so you don't need to worry.

    I am convinced that Archi's has influenced a lot of Thai restaurants in town.  In my opinion, this old restaurant has set the standard for Thai restaurants that stay moderately authentic, while at the same time appeal to the general public.  In my opinion, Archi's is a solid Thai restaurant, but it lacks the uniqueness and higher level of authentic Thai that I look for in a Thai restaurant.  

    My Thai friend who is a cook told me that Archi's has good stir fries, but forget about the curries.  So, I thought I would try both.  We ordered the Thai tea, which was excellently balanced with sweetness and cream, the pad cha cha cha, the panang with chicken, and tom kha with chicken.  Let's start with my favorite dish, the tom kha!

    I loved the tom kha (khi)!  It has nice whole shrooms, with basil and a fairly good amount of lime juice, along with other yummy herbs.  The coconut milk was generous, and very creamy.  I think it could have been made a little more sour, since I prefer my khi's to be puckeringly sour!  However, underneath Thai Grill, this has to be one of the best tom kha's I have had.  

    Next up is the pad cha cha cha, which is a mixed seafood stir fry dish with a lightly spicy teriyaki sauce, and bamboo shoots.  The teriyaki sauce itself was a little bit on the generic side, but tasty enough to enjoy.  What did wow me though was the freshness of the squid.  It was nice and soft, not chewy at all!  

    The panang, which I have heard was good from different people (and not so good from my Thai cook friend), was in my opinion an excellent version of the standard panang you'll get at any Thai restaurant.  It also reminded me of the chu che salmon at Thai Style Noodle House, but with a little less character.  Overall, it was tasty, but not overly unique.  I still think Thai Grill has the most unique curry flavors to date.  However, compared to other Thai restaurants, this version of the dish has a nice balance between sweetness, coconut milk, and herbs.  

    I struggled between three and four stars with this review.  However, Archi's has long been the favorite for a few Thai people I know, but today there are a few better restaurants out there.  For the sake of their history though, and their ability to help make Thai food popular in Las Vegas, I am settling on a four star rating today due to the previously mentioned facts, and that awesome tom kha!

    This Archi's location is just down the street from my temporary housing arrangement, and I pass by it regularly on my way to my doctor's appointment.  It is located in a fairly old strip mall on W. Flamingo and timing was perfect today for me to drop in for a quick lunch and check out what Yelpers have said was a reasonably priced lunch special from a Thai restaurant.

    When I arrived around 11:30am, there were already several tables occupied with diners having their lunch.  But I was quickly greeted by one of the petite waitresses and seated at a large table that can comfortably seat 4 or 6.  I felt a little guilty since I was dining alone.  But it didn't end up being an issue since the restaurant didn't get packed as I thought it was based on how hectic the place gets during the mad rush of the lunch crowd.

    Anyway, I noticed that their selections of lunch specials is rather small compared to their entire menu offerings.  But I went with their Red Curry with Chicken and also ordered a Thai Iced Coffee.  The waitress soon returned with a really generous size glass of Thai Iced Coffee, it is definitely the largest glass of Iced Coffee I have ever been served. Happy Surprise = +1 on my Yelp meter.

    The Red Curry with Chicken was alright.  The flavor of the curry and the 5 spiciness on the Thai spicy scale was good. But the chicken was really tough, and I didn't care for it at all. The egg roll served is 99% out of the box, and you can really taste the prominent white pepper in the filling or the wrapper.

    Ambiance is good, the dining area is rather small, but it didn't bother me. And during lunch there was good amount of ambient lighting from outside, which I believe is a good thing.

    Anyway, I am going to have to come back and try some more of the cooking of the Thai mothers and grandmothers working in the back. Because I was seated at the table facing the small window where the kitchen passes the prepared plates to be served, and all I see are a bunch of women on the other side working in the kitchen.

    First off I always compare thai food to ping kaow, it's just how my mind works and it's a good reference point for comparing vegas thai food

    I have been here 3 times now and it has been solid every time.  I do like pin kaow better overall but this place is still well worth eating.  The lunch special is fantastic and I had it with red curry and it was great..  The tom kha gai soup here is awesome and probably better than kaow.

    The reason I like pin kaow a little better is there pad thai is probably the best I have had and pad thai is one of my favorite things in the world so there you go.  I would bet that half the dishes are better at one place and the other half is better at the other.

    This is damn good Thai food. Better than Ping Kaow, if that means anything to anyone.
    The Pad Thai was perfect in my opinion, noodles were perfectly cooked, not mushy or too hard, I asked for a spice of 7 and still ended up putting more chilies in it - loved the look on the waitresses face when she saw that, Oh You want it more spicy, she asks?! Why yes I do!
    Speaking of spice, they spice cart had a nice assortment of pickled Thai peppers, not the jalapenos you see at the other places. Nice touch, Also had an interesting sauce that I think she said was fish sauce and garlic with pepper flakes. Whatever it was, it was good.
    I've only eaten there once and will definitely go back to try other dishes but from visit number 1, the food, the service and overall charm of the place, I highly recommend it!

    WE LOVE ARCHI'S!!!!  We were in Vegas one year celebrating our anniversary and we were craving good Thai food.  The front desk lady at the Venetian recommended Archi's.  So taking her advice we tried this place out.  Since then, we try to hit up this place whenever we are in town.  I swear this place is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo  yummy!  :) :)  Their yellow curry is exceptionally good and very flavorful. I highly recommend it.  We typically order their Pad Thai and Pad See Ewe and Satay as these are our favorite Thai dishes.  Archi's does a great job with them all.  Everything we have tried thus far has been awesome.

    We look forward to eating at this place whenever we come to Vegas.

    Archi's is my favorite Thai Restaurant in town.  I would have given this location 5 stars, except it is the smallest restaurant I have ever seen.  Sometimes the wait can be 30-45 minutes.
    Other than that the food is EXCELLENT.  The Red Curry is so rich and flavorful, it is probably my favorite.  The Tom Kha soup is sooo good, the Pad Thai is great.  The service is excellent, and the prices are reasonable.  Go for lunch, they have excellent lunch specials for $6.95.

    AHHHH! I absolutely love this place. My cousin and her husband who practically eat anywhere and anything at anytime they want because they can afford it told me this is one of their favorite restaurants. And after trying it out for myself I can definitely agree! Let me start with the interior, this location is sort of has an odd stand alone building in the middle of a parking lot for a shopping center. But the inside is really nice because it's like your Aunt's classic living room, which has a nice home feel to it. I ordered the Pad Thai, which was in the lunch specials part of the menu. Let me just say the best Pad Thai I've ever had! Amazing flavor! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it! Service was good too and always good to know since Asian restaurants can be really rude sometimes. I recommend this place to everyone and I have been ever since I've tried them. 5 stars well deserved!!

    Portions were quite generous (we were stuffed beyond belief) and the food was top notch. Great service too. I typically like medium spicy food. I ordered my larb and my seafood green curry as "7" and I was ON FIRE. Mind you, both were so damned good that I ate them and just let my mouth flame. My other half ordered pad thai - it was huge. for dessert we had the mango mochi as one yelper suggested - it was quite yummy and was an effective means of cooling of my flaming mouth. I would come back here in a heartbeat. I wish the east coast had thai this good!!!

    This is where I go when I crave Thai. It's convenient, even has a drive thru when I order take out. Go to items on the menu: pineapple fried rice, Tom kha soup, pad Thai, pad see ew, papaya salad and chicken larb. My husband liked the ginger chicken. He's not a big Thai food fan. Their Thai iced tea is great as well.

    I went here with my boys on Friday and we thought it was good.

    We had Pad Thai, red curry and spicy fried rice.  They were all good and very spicy which we like, #8 spicy and my eyes were running LOL!

    The only thing I didn't like was the ice tea which was made with powdered tea yuck.

    Service was great and  price was right.

    I've been coming here for years. This place is the absolute best Thai cuisine you will ever eat, period. Then an exclamation point!

    My fave dishes is the eggplant spicy. I usually order the eggplant spicy with tofu because it feels like I'm getting more food, though it's delicious with the beef, too.

    You also order your food based on how spicy you want it...  "Spicy number 4," my dining companion might say to the waiter.

    I think the spiciness levels depend on who's in the back cooking that day, but go for spicy number 7. Ask for the spice caddy if your spice level isn't enough.

    What else....  The panang and the other curries are very good, too. The only time I have been disappointed with my experience at Archi's is when I ordered the Thai pancake. It looks better than it tastes, trust me. Period.

    Was this review …?

    After spending all day at work on Yelp, I decided to stop by here when I got off so I could have some curry before heading home. I placed my order on the phone and the lady said "OK, see you in 15 minutes at the drive-thru window," that got me super excited!!! I wouldn't have to get outta my car in my stinky, bacteria infested work clothes, turn my car off, turn my car on, waste more gas... bla bla bla.. Yeah, the drive-thru really got my blood pumping.

    Upon getting there, I almost passed it. I saw the drive-thru easily, but I wondered how anyone could eat inside?? Looked so tiny.. Maybe I will have to discover that at a later time.  

    I got my green curry, #6 spicy home, and it was still piping hot after my 30 min drive. Archi's definitely does not skimp out on the content in their curry, plenty of chicken, plenty of bamboo shoots, basil, and plenty of zucchini(which is the first I have had in my curry.. yumm). And they give you just enough rice:]

    Not a complaint, I was a happy girl with my curry take out. So, why not 5 stars? Because it's not. Yay! I'm a fan. We will keep it as that.
