Thai Cottage Westheimer

I adore this place, I’ve been coming here since I was single digits in age. I go for every birthday and big event! Everyone is always very nice, the food is always perfect! Literally cannot think of a single time we got something that wasn’t perfectly made. Love the Thai tea here, it’s so good that when I try to order it somewhere else, I don’t like it. Also do yourself a favor and order the sticky rice with ice cream or mango, soooo good! Totally recommend all the dishes, I made a point to come here when I’m back from college! I literally dream of this place and have a hard time finding anything that’s even remotely as yummy as this restaurant!

I enjoyed this place much more than I even expected. I've been to Thailand and this seems to stay pretty authentic while slightly catering to the American pallet. My basil eggplant tofu was really good. Medium spice level was well done and on point. My grandmom had cashew chicken and asked for it over noodles instead of rice. It also had great flavor, and I don't usually like that dish much. Total for dinner with one tea and tip was $42, which I think is fair for the quality and ambience, which was clean but cozy. Server was also very attentive. I would go back.

Food was so delicious. The cheese rolls were amazing, probably my favorite item on the menu. The egg drop soup was good, not my favorite but decent. I had the garlic and pepper lover dish with shrimp and it was delicious but spicy and I only asked for mild spicy. The sa-te chicken was very tasty. Probably won’t return since it’s out of the way and a little pricey for lunch, but everything was tasty and the service was friendly.

This place was a buzz today! That was my first inkling lunch was going to be good. First the beverages... My sweet tea was AMAZING! It had a underlying taste I couldn't identify, but I loved it! We had the steamed dumplings to start. Very good and fresh; not chewy like some I have had in the past. Our egg drop soup and spring roll arrived next. Wasn't crazy about the egg drop. They put bits of chicken in theirs and it wasn't very hot. I can do without the chicken. I felt it gave a strange texture. I was hoping for more of the typical thick egg texture. The spring roll was a little too well done and they only give a tiny amount of sauce drizzled over it. I had to request more sauce, during a busy lunch rush, which caused me to wait longer than I wanted to eat my roll. For our entrees, we shared the Chili Basil and the Red Curry plates. Very good and filling. Both had a red pepper to indicate spicy, but the Chili Basil wasn't very spicy; the Red Curry was on point. All in all, the lunch was good. It was very busy, so the service was a little slow and could have used a tad more friendliness. My tea was not filled until requested and we had to wait awhile for our check to come after requested. I will go back. They have a full menu of items I'd like to try. The Pad Thai looked good. $35.00 (without tip) for 2 to dine.

Hands down the best shrimp pad thai I've had in Houston... It was moist, juicy, and flavorful. The flavor was exactly what I was looking for: Thai-flavored lol. And the fried chicken wings (Wings of Paradise)....OMG so GOODT! I was a bit skeptical because I'm not fond of basil, BUT those wings were wonderful, even with the basil! Give this place a try, it'll be worth your while👍🏼👍🏼
