Great food. Their basil and pineapple fried rice are flavorful and plenty in size. However, ask the waiter for the updated menu price. Atmosphere is clean and formal. Friendly employees.

Thai Connection has great food and service. It is definitely a hidden gem in downtown Columbus! My wife had a filet, which was a special item for the night. I had Padd Thai and it was delicious. I ordered it vegetarian but added chicken and will definitely do that again since the regular chicken one doesn’t have enough veggies for my liking. Great place and highly recommend it

I recently visited the Thai Connection with some friends and everyone enjoyed the quality of the food. The dishes were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The restaurant also had a fast seating process, which was convenient and efficient. We didn’t have a reservation, but they managed to sit nine of us in a somewhat busy night. However, the only downside was the long wait time for our food due to a “computer glitch”. It took about 1.5 hours for our dishes to arrive, which was frustrating given the otherwise impressive service. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant for its delicious food and fast seating, but be prepared for a wait time or make sure your order is in the queue.

Everything here was very delicious!! We started with the vegetable potstickers (steamed) and the sauce was really deep and flavorful. The Number 58 with wide noodles was so delicious and reminded me of drunken noodles. I’ve had other places, with that sort of grilled taste, and nice big slices of vegetables and meat. I got the green curry and chose hot, and the spice level was true to the label! It was perfect, because while my nose was definitely running, it had a lot of great flavor, all the vegetables were very tender, and it was just what I wanted. Glad to see that they don’t under-spice things – just make sure you know that when you’re ordering! They were pretty busy so service was a little bit slow but definitely understandable. I do wish they had a caffeine-free tea or other warm drink that wasn’t sweetened but I might try the boba next time as a treat. We will definitely want to come back!

The person catering our table was excellent. The food was also amazing we ordered red curry and thought of trying thai spicy, we were unsure but the food turned put to be beyond our expectations 11/10.

We like to stop here when we come to Columbus. Good food, great service. Everything we’ve had has been really tasty, and the portions are VERY generous. My only complaint is that the hot isn’t really hot. Last time I asked for between very hot and thai hot, what I got was mild to medium at best. Still tasty though!

The place was packed. We did have to wait but it was a Monday night and almost every table was full. Our server served us and was incredible despite handling quite a few tables. Our time was great and food was perfect. My wife has to be gluten free and they are always super accommodating and my wife has never gotten sick.

We’ve been here multiple times over the past few years, and the food is always excellent. The customizable spice levels make every dish accessible, as do the variety of protein choices.
