The is fast food but not your usual eat-in/carry-out sort of place. it is bare bones with tables in the center and a bar for eating along the wall. The menu is on the left wall - it is best to be prepared when you get to the cafeteria like food service area. It is basically Korean oriented but anglicized. It's a "make it" yourself place by telling the server what type of bowl you want. Start with the base of rices or japchae (flavored glass noodles - a must try if you have never had them, $1 extra), a protein and up to 4 vegetable toppings. Then you choose a sauce like gochujang or a peanut sauce; add on other condiments such as soy sauce or sesame seeds. There is a base price for tofu, bulgogi, pork or chicken bowl. Some of the ingredients are included in the price but others add extra $$ to the total bill, for example, additional meat or vegetables. I had a Tofu bowl with japchae, kimchi, pickled onions and cucumbers. Squeezed some gochujang over the top and was good to go. Looking forward to the next visit.

The food here is the best I have ever had. It's not just the bentos that are amazing but the curry as well. But, my favorite is definitely the Ginger Beef Bento! It makes my mouth water just thinking about it! The waiter is also really friendly, and attentive; I doesn't take any of them more than five minutes, usually, to fill up our drinks. It's a little dark in there, but I think it's nice, and mostly quite, as it isn't busy when I go.

Just moved here, wanted something good to pick up and take home after a long day. Staff is super friendly, place is clean and welcoming. The crab Rangoons were the best Iâve ever had!! So when I got home and opened this huge meal I was so excited, but that was short lived. The sesame chicken was mostly breading and âchicken partsâ no real meat that I could find. The sweet and sour chicken had more meat, but still a lot of breading. The sauce was ok, The fried rice was bland, the lo mein was ok. I might try it again just because there were good aspects....weâll see

We shared the Chicken Pho and the Shrimp with Rice cooked in a Clay Potâboth were extremely good and some of the best Vietnamese Iâve had in NM. I had a Thai Iced Tea to drink and my husband a Mango Smoothy. Both were delicious.The restaurant is brightly decorated and cleanâas was the menâs room, always a good sign.As for the complaints about service:Our waiter was very attentive without being over bearing. He was a little loud while bantering with the kitchen staff, but as a chef I found their closeness enjoyable to listen too. We were there between lunch and dinner and the relaxed atmosphere was what we needed.We highly recommend them.

Great traditional mexican food. Chicken mole was amazing. Plenty of vegetarian options. The vegetarian enchiladas with red sauce were tasty. The grilled fish tacos were decent. The welcome soup (sopa de fideo) was good, lentil soup was good, beans and rice were good. Wait staff was super friendly and I never saw her once, not smiling. Service was quick.

Thai Delights is surprising for a number of reasons: The service is quick and pleasant. The employees are proud of the cuisine. It has a loyal following. The restaurant was recommended to me three times in the last week. We sampled three dishes: the Stir-fried Ginger with Chicken and Medium spice, the Green Curry with Shrimp and the Pad Thai with Chicken - replacing the peanuts with cashews - both with hot spice.The Stir-fried Ginger was of good quality. The vegetables were fresh and vibrant and the chicken cooked perfectly but the dish lacked flavor. The Green Curry on the other hand was a wonderful blend of spice, heat and flavor. The shrimp were perfectly cooked: no complaints; expect, if you are going to leave the tails on the shrimp then provide your guest with somewhere to place the annoying uneatable pieces! Now, the Pad Thai was gorgeous. It had an elegant mixture of heat and sweetness. The fresh bean sprouts added the right amount of crunch. But, remember I ordered the Pad Thai sans peanuts with cashews instead? I had already tried a couple of bits when the server came over and asked, "Sir, are you allergic to peanuts?" I replied that I was not and was told that the kitchen had prepared the meal with peanuts. I was then given a side of whole cashews.Another problem was with the appetizers: for one meal we chose the Miso soup and with the other the house salad. Both the soup and the salad added nothing to the experience and were a distraction. The Miso was of poor quality and watery. The salad was distinctly low-brow; its only saving grace being the dressing which was ginger instead of the cucumber I ordered. And for me, the interior is a confusion of colors and decor. Itâs not sure if it should be Asian or New Mexican. The tabling is a bit too small for more than two people to share. Finally: price. This was a lunch visit. Mine you, there were three of us with four dishes (I didn't review the forth dish as I did not taste it). The bill was $56.51! With gratuity, lunch at $67 plus is extremely overpriced especially considering some of the above mentioned technical errors. Is it worth a trip? Yes. But, attention to detail as with the soup, salad, the customer's preferences and unreasonable pricing moved this review from a four to a three. I can live with bad decor and table sizing, but lack of attention to detail drops Thai Delights a point: 3 out of 5 stars.
