My friend and I stopped by this restaurant last month after eating at the restaurant next door several times and wondering about this place. We've know been there twice and it is my new favorite Thai restaurant.
The place is cozy and have unique salt and pepper shakers on each table which is a nice touch. The service has always been prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable.
Our first time at the restaurant, we both had Pad Thai with fried tofu from the lunch menu. It came with salad with the most incredible peanut dressing. I literally could have just eaten the salad and been happy! Yum!! The meal also comes with a spring roll... all for $6.95! The Pad Thai was very good and it was some of the best Tofu I've had, but the portions were so generous that I only managed to eat half of my food. Not complaining! This is great.
The second visit, I selected the Mango Basil with chicken lunch special. I also ordered the house specialty drink, Thai Tea. Both were fabulous!! I never would have guessed that mango and basil went together, but it was amazing. I forget what my friend selected the second time around, but she also enjoyed her meal.
I've never been to Thai Patio for dinner, but you simply can't beat their lunch menu and pricing.
If you like Thai food and live in the East Valley, try this place out. I can't wait to go again! Just writing this review is making me crave it.
