“ This place is like having dinner at a family members house. They were so attentive to every movement we made. The food was amazing. The staff was so kind. I would absolutely recommend this to everyone. It's small and quaint. I will absolutely be back. ”
“ First time customer. While the visit started off a little shaky, it quickly smoothed out. My order didn't update on their end, consequently it wasn't ready when I arrived. The staff was very understanding and I didn't mind the few extra minutes wait. The restaurant has a relaxed trendy vibe. The volume was perfect and the outdoor seating made me wish I had dined in. All of the other customers seemed to be enjoying their meals and the environment had a friendly feel. When I got my order the staff held the door for me while apologizing unnecessarily and wishing me a good evening. Once home I could really smell the food! The food was no less than amazing! I have officially found my new Thai spot ”
“ BEST restaurant service, the nicest people ever The red curry is incredible and it's now my new favorite place to go for Thai food. They even sang happy birthday to me on my birthday and gave me a delicious homemade Thai flan. Outdoor seating is the best in a nice day Best Thai in the valley!! ”
“ Oh my freak’n word! Get the Khao Soi. The curry is to die for and I would drink it as a soup any day. This is a quaint and small local Thai restaurant but that doesn’t take way from the food. We also had the egg rolls, and the Bamee Moo, and the Garlic Egg Noodles with tiger prawns. The curry was the best my far. There was one waiter working his tail off but you should take your time and enjoy the atmosphere. Parking is limited. ”
“ Everything was super fresh and delicious. I ordered take out and everything was packed well as to not spill and it was super fast. I got the chicken fried rice and green curry dumplings and both were incredible! I also asked for some extra spice on the fried rice and they added the perfect amount. Great serving sizes too. I’ll definitely be back! ”
“ Absolutely phenomenal Thai cuisine at Ekamai Thai!** From the moment you step in, you’re transported to Thailand with authentic flavors that truly stand out in Utah. The dishes are nothing short of luxury-quality, crafted with the skill and finesse you'd expect from a multi-Michelin-star chef — yet the prices are surprisingly affordable. What sets Ekamai Thai apart is its commitment to staying true to traditional Thai flavors. Unlike many other Thai restaurants in the state that tend to Americanize their dishes, Ekamai Thai delivers an experience that's as close to authentic Thai cuisine as you’ll find outside of Thailand. Every bite is a reminder of the rich, vibrant, and complex flavors that make Thai food so beloved. If you're craving genuine Thai food that offers incredible quality at a great price, Ekamai Thai is the place to go. Highly recommended for both Thai connoisseurs and newcomers alike! ”
“ Second time here and it is FANTASTIC! Their Khao Soi is my favorite thing here. If you have never had it I would absolutely recommend it. We went today during valentines and they were so kind to give us a cute cupcake with our meal. ”
“ I am Thai people and I would like to confirm that these taste really close to authentic Thai food. If you like spicy foods, you can request spicy level 5. Moreover, desserts are the modern Thai dessert that are deconstructed all ingredients to western style. ”
