Delicious spicy Thai. Recommend the lamb curry. If you don't go at least level 3 spicy, you're missing major flavor.

My husband and I are passing through town and the bartender at our hotel recommended this restaurant. I ordered the eggplant entree with added chicken and my husband ordered green curry. The food came right out from the kitchen piping hot- I’ve never had food this hot (temp) in a restaurant so extra points! Both of us loved our meals and the staff were very friendly. We highly recommend this place!

I always make it a point to stop by Alex Thai in downtown Chattanooga whenever I’m in town, it never disappoints! The chicken fried rice and prik pow noodles are two of my absolute favorite dishes. Portions are generous (easily enough for two people), so I always end up taking leftovers home, definitely a great value for the price. The food is consistently delicious and the service is top-notch. Ryan always takes care of me when I visit, super friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The entire staff is warm and welcoming, which adds to the great experience. Highly recommend this spot if you’re craving Thai food that’s both flavorful and affordable!

This place was a recommended from a friend, and he really hit the mark. My wife and I sat at the bar, I had the pad Thai beef and she had the Pho. We both shared the apps ( crab ragoon and some ginger beef stuff - I forgot what it's called). Washed the food down with a couple of beers and a Thai Tea. This might be my new favorite Thai spot in Chattanooga. Fully satisfied!

We stopped in to share a summer roll, thai tea, and pad thai. Staff were amazing, atmosphere great, and the pad thai has a unique flavor profile that nearly made me tear up. I’d tell anyone with a tongue to try this. Edit: stopped by again 3 months later and had another great experience. Seriously. This place is very good.

My husband and I are visiting from out of town and found this place! Great vibe, the food was hot and had amazing flavors! We will recommend!!! The spice level was on point. I recommend panang curry plate

Cute little restaurant! The staff were very kind and attentive. The food was AMAZING! Make sure to read the spice level menu, bc some dishes can have a good bit of heat, but the food was still soooo good. We got the sizzling beef, pad tai, and vegetarian Ramen. Oh, and the portions sizes are enough for lunch the next day. We will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu!
