I picked this place our of several because of the great reviews. I was not disappointed. I had the drunken noodle and it was heaven, as was the rest of my combo. Perfectly cooked rice, amazing spring roll and a great portion size. I won't be trying another Thai restaurant in the area. I can't imagine it can get better than this.

This place is a 2 minute drive from where I work. A co-worker and I have been here many times, with today being the most recent. There are several Thai restaurants in the area. We've been to most, if not all, of them. Thai Smile is the best of the ones we've tried. In fact, I can't think of another Thai place anywhere in metro Detroit that is better. The food here is excellent, at a very reasonable price. The sauces are consistently great. Lots of fresh vegetables. Don't be fooled by the exterior appearance or the fact that it's next to a seedy motel. If you can get past those things, you'll be rewarded with great Thai food.

This little whole in the wall is actually pretty damn good! From the outside... or the inside actually, you wouldn't be able to tell that it has such tasty thai food! i ordered the drunken noodle, it was absolutely delicious - just the right balance of salty, sweet, and sour. I also got the Gang dang - really nice spicy coconut cream gravy with lots of yummy veggies like my fav - eggplant! Will definitely be paying this place another visit before too long!

great Pad Thai, great price! Had two orders of Pad Thai, one seafood, one shrimp. Both were delicious! The portions were smaller than Thai Stars, but I still had left overs (my man didn't). The hot & sour soup (included w/ the meal) was delicious as well. $16.50 total. Can't beat that. We will be back again. The restaurant is small and outdated, but that won't keep me from going back. Great, friendly, quick service.

WOW. Now, I don't just like this place for the complimentary sweet and sour soup. I ordered the Gang Dang with chicken-medium spicy, and my cousin ordered the chicken pad thai. We both loved our dinners because we got so much food for our money. My cousin describes her food as very fresh and delicious. Our waiter was super nice, and although its abit small, the decor is beautiful.

This place is what you would see if you googled hole in the wall. Not the best Thai food I've had, but it was pretty good and by far the best value I've ever seen for Thai food along with incredible service!

Has the best Thai Food I've ever had. Dined in and got soup with entree. Will definitely be back! A+ in my book.

Dan doesn't talk Thai, but Dan does eat Thai very well. (See what I did there? I made a reference to Meet the Parents!) When I want to eat Thai food there are actually several really good options around the greater Warren area, which has always been a little puzzling. If I'm in a hurry or if I've got a hankerin for really fantastic Thai Hot and Sour Soup (and believe me there are big differences from the Chineese version). Thai Smile is not going to win any beauty contests. The windows allow for gusty wintery breezes to pass in during the winter months (so much so that the staff strategically places space heaters around the restaurant) and it's a little warm inside during the summers. You'll be met with copious amounts of 3M tape on most of the booth's seats and the restaurant is really small. But the food ... the food is a shining star. Great appetizers and an impressive list of Thai specialties grace their menu. This restaurant features reasonable prices, quality ingredients and some awesome lunch combinations. I usually swing in on a Monday to have the combo plate that has both Pad Thai and Pad Prik. For $8.50 you'll get healthy helpings of both dishes, a cup of the aforementioned soup and a drink. I guarantee you'll have leftovers. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They have been catering to the GM Tech Center's diverse and global crowd for years and definitely err on the side of more heat is probably better. Big plus for me is that every time I go, there are slightly different ingredients in my dish. I know they're taking the fresh stuff based on what I see in my Pad Prik. So, if you're rolling down Van Dyke, hankering for some Thai food, don't be scared off by the creepy hotel next door or the aging little building with the red neon sign. Give Thai Smile a chance. You'll most likely be back.

I first went to this place a few years back, hoping it would be a diamond in the rough, like Pi's Thai used to be before Chef James' departure. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I can't even remember what it was called back then, under seemingly different ownership. I'll just call that incarnation Thai Frown. Things are a lot different now. The restaurant is still housed in the same rundown building in the parking lot of an equally rundown motel - a greasy setting that wouldn't be out of place on the show Trailer Park Boys, and was actually what first drew me to the joint. Now, however there is a sprightly row of letters with the cheery name, using red peppers for the eyes. This sign might actually annoy me if it was on a modern, bland strip mall, but here I like it. Inside, the booths are still very well broken in, with, I think, a greater menagerie of fun stuff on the walls. Your standard tourist posters of Thailand and whatnot. It was cold when I came here in the winter, but I'm a veteran of over a decade of Detroit winters spent in buildings with lousy heat, so I ain't complaining. I just tried to sit away from the door and near the space heater. Space heaters 4 life!! Service is good. They're quick with the water and soup. But the real difference is the food. Much, much better than it was back in the early aughts. I've had Pad Thai with beef and one of the basic rice dishes (I forget which but the eggplant was awesome) with shrimp and they both hit the spot. I'm not on the 5-star train just yet, but they do cook up a mean lunch that's good cold later, too. The last time I went, last Saturday, there were notices on the front of the register and the menu advising prices just went up, and they still seemed pretty reasonable. So the place has gone from a horrible dive restaurant to an awesome dive restaurant. Bravo! Now I just need an excuse to make it back to that part of town...

If you only based your decision making on the outward appearance of this place, you would continue driving by it- possibly at a speed a bit higher than the speed limit. But, I trusted my coworker's advice and joined for lunch there. I ordered the special for $7-8 and was absolutely floored at the serving size, quality and taste. I had that "thai smile" upon leaving.
(4)Tom A.
Don't let the outside fool you...this place is AMAZING. My wife and I stopped in for dinner and were floored by how good (and cheap) the food was! We ordered the T1 and T4 and both were very fresh and flavorful. This might be my new favorite Thai spot. The server was very friendly and attentive as well. It was a very pleasant experience.

First timer!! I called in the order for carry out of Thai fried rice with Shrimp hot (F3 KraPow) and shrimp rolls. They said 15 minutes. It was ready in 10. It was enough food for two to split unless you're feeling greedy. The meal was delicious. Spices and flavors were on point and authentic. We will definitely be ordering again. I'll probably try the meals as a combo vs a la carte--more bang for the buck. I made sure to get a carry out menu since there was no menu available on Yelp. What I looked at online was out of date and inaccurate. I hope you find it useful.

45 minute wait for carry out XX Spicy Chicken Fried rice and I got Chicken Fried rice with a pile of crushed red pepper on it. GARBAGE!!!!!
(1)Glenn O.
I was greeted at my table with a cup of hot and spicy soup. The menu has both à la cart and combo meals. The à la cart meal is equivalent to any meal in a Thai restaurant I've visited lately. The combo meal gets you a spring roll and rice with your meal. Be adventurous stay away from the pad Thai you boring Thai food eaters. Try the Se'ew for a change! Great dish. Friendly service.
(4)Vanessa W.
Have only tried a few items but I absolutely love this place. I just started working down the street from them so this is my go to place !!!! Soooo tasty and the prices are reasonable
(5)Arturo V.
Very fast and delicious Thai carryout. I had the drunken noodle combo with pork which came with fried rice and a spring roll. Tasted better than the more expensive Thai I have had in the Troy area before. They give you generous portions, especially for the price, along with friendly service. Just a five minute drive from most of the area hotels.

Their Lunch price are great price for the quality of food. I enjoy druken noodles, T4 - the red curry with egg plants and other vegetables! I always take one of these two for lunch. Sorry cant give you advice on other entrees. Small restaurant, with about 15 tables. decent size for lunch not hardly have to wait to be seated. It is a family restaurant. Keep in mind that they charged (50 cents more?) if your purchased on credit card is under $10. So you can pay as a group or just bring cash. Overall, I like this place~!

OMG I never thought I would find a Thai place near me that I loved. I moved from oak park to Warren and wanted Thai so bad that I would drive all the way back to Southfield to get it. Last night went to Thai Smile just to see how they were. They did NOT disappoint. They were so friendly and the Drunken Noodle was awesome and the price is way better than my normal place.

I can't believe I haven't written a review of Thai Smile yet, but I haven't. Maybe I didn't want anyone to find out about it... I've been all of the Metro Detroit area, and Thai Smile is the BEST Thai I've found. You don't necessarily want to eat there because it's pretty run-down, but thankfully I'm close enough for take-out. Everything I've tried here is great, and as others have mentioned, cheap as hell!! The spice level is realistic, so order what you're used to. Everything is prepared with care and they're very friendly. I think they know who I am and what I order by this point. So don't be put off by the looks of the place -- Thai Smile is hands down the best Thai in town!
(5)Rick S.
Basic Thai food, nothing special. Live nearby so I've gone through alot of the menu. Big fan of Red Curry Coconut sauce ala Pad Ped/Gang Gai, don't bother with this place for that. Appetizers are super small but ok, Fried Rice is their best dish, above average, its the only reason I would go back.
(2)Jim D.
I eat lunch here almost every week. I've never had something I didn't like. Always hot, fresh and flavorful. The young man who serves lunch seems like a hard working kid. Try it out.
(5)Jen M.
I've been here twice and both times it was 35 degrees in the restaurant. The counter people actually wear gloves. I do NOT recommend dining in for this reason alone. Now the food-it is perfectly average but CHEAP as hell!! I'm talking 3 meals for under $20 with left overs. Staples such as pad thai are every bit as good as Bangkok which charges twice as much. Their spice level does leave a bit to be desired. 1st visit I ordered medium plus and was disappointed. 2nd visit I ordered hot and was still disappointed and I am not exactly brave when it comes to thai hotness. If you are in the area and want a fast cheap carryout this is your place. If you want authentic thai in a nice sit down establishment look elsewhere.
