First experience- Food was absolutely out of this world! We had the pineapple fried rice, massaman curry, basil entree, and a few appetizers. All was AMAZING. Come hungry as the portions are generous for the price point. Service was impeccable, we had Natasha as a server. We also order a few cocktails. All I can say is, keep up the great work! This is a must try place. I saw they cater and have a happy hour. We’ll definitely be returning customers.

My wife and I have been looking for a good Asian restaurant in the east end of Louisville for some time. Let me tell ya, there are not very many good Asian restaurants around us. So we stopped at a Simply Thai to give them a try. We started with the Satay appetizer. This appetizer was marinated grilled chicken skewers served with a peanut sauce (butter) and a cucumber sauce. The marinated grilled chicken was very tasty and most likely we will be ordering it again. My wife enjoyed the chicken Basil Entrée which arrived with simmered onions, red and green bell peppers in a Thai basil sauce with jasmine rice. This was a very large serving. So, if you're not too hungry, make sure you get a take-out container. I had the Herbed Pork Loin which was marinated and somewhat tender. The pork was sliced and served with a very large helping of cilantro rice and a garlic sweet and sour dipping sauce. The breading/crust of the pork was somewhat crunchy and just not to my liking. The portion was somewhat small and some 1/3 of the plate came with chopped lettuce to fill out the plate. The restaurant has a large offering of sprits and non-alcoholic drinks. We had wine with our meal. The pours were regular amounts, nothing to write home about. The decor of the restaurant is very Asian and sets the mood for Thai food. If you haven't tried Thai food, I would suggest starting with a temperature level of no more than two. We will be back again to Simply Thai. Most likely I will try something different, but most likely my wife will go with the Basil dish again. Enjoy!

The worse Thai food I ever had! No taste at all. If you know Thai food do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Posting a review mainly to share the Happy Hour information, which I couldn't find elsewhere. The select cocktails included the margaritas, mules, Cosmo Boba, Samui something, and the Thai coffee, if I remember correctly. The half price cocktails and discounted non-sushi items are definitely worth it during Happy Hour. (The sushi is still good, but less of a discount in comparison.) We pretty much only go for Happy Hour and on Mondays. I'm not sure if ToastTab is new for them, but with three of us eating there, the rewards program is nice; we've earned $26 off in rewards total already. It keeps us coming back to use our rewards. We tend to like all the food we get, but beware that soupy/broth-y items like the basil entree (pictured) are much spicier at the same level than the creamier curries. The curries that say they aren't spicy/are mild are pretty sweet; the pineapple curry tastes more like a dessert than a meal. Not to say it tastes bad, but it might surprise people if they don't expect it. I personally like the interior decorations and the salt water fish tank at the front. We've never had bad servers, but service is definitely slow and we consistently run out of water. Considering I tend to eat with people who love spicy food, not having water refilled can be an issue. Perhaps they could start leaving pitchers of water on the table for 3+ people, especially if they are low on staff?

Went there early on a Saturday evening and the service was poor. Our orders were wrong, the bill was incorrect and the service was slow. We've been there before and had a better experience. The food was good, although a bit pricey. Probably won't return.
