Maggie Thai Kitchen

Of 392 Google reviews posted & 5 stars for food, service & atmosphere, we were driven to come to Maggie’s Kitchen for our 1st time. From our experience today, we affirm these ratings & give them a perfect 5 stars across of measurements. The dishes we had (salmon triple delight (not the name—sweet/sour/spicy) & yellow curry were absolutely delicious. Their menu included the usual offerings plus several unusual to us. We can’t wait to go back & bring friends. David the waiter & hostess/chef were all kind & engaged to create an enjoyable experience for all present.

There was no wait to be seated for dinner. One server was scrambling to wait on everyone. My green curry was good although the eggplant was tough. My spouse's sweet and sour was not good. It tasted a bit fishy. I would go back because the prices are reasonable.

10-25 Nice restaurant that generally lives up to its good reviews. Pros: Comfortable seating, at least on one half that is different from the other half. Not fancy but nice for a strip mall. Generous portions and nice presentation. Excellent and friendly service. Fun artwork along the hall to the bathrooms. Cons: I don’t like gratuitously sweetened Thai food. The Thais do add a lot of sugar, but not as much as this. Please reduce the sugar in your dishes; it gets in the way of the flavors. I should have asked which dishes are less sweetened. (I ordered the pumpkin curry) Recommended if you like quite sweet Thai food.

This is the best by far Thai food. Always fresh and made to order. It is family owned and they want to make sure you’re happy.

Great Service, but Panaeng Curry Could Be Thicker I had a great experience at Maggie Thai Kitchen. The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and quick. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great spot for a meal. I really enjoyed the flavors of the dishes, but the Panaeng curry was a bit watery for my taste. It still had great seasoning, but I prefer a thicker consistency. Overall, a solid dining experience, and I’d definitely come back to try more dishes!

Sweetest people in town! The servers are very polite and awesome. The food is so flavorful 😋 and presentation is top notch! Best Thai food I have had in Boise. They have great tea selection as well, we tried jasmine tea, lemongrass and honey ginger tea. We will be back! Highly recommended!!

Hands down the most authentic and best Thai food I’ve ever had. Every dish was packed with real, bold flavors that tasted like they were made with care and tradition, not shortcuts. The balance of spice, sweetness, and freshness was perfect, and you can tell the ingredients are high quality. From the aroma to the presentation to the first bite, everything felt genuinely Thai. If you’re looking for food that tastes truly authentic and unforgettable, this place is an absolute must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back. We recommend the yellow curry and spring rolls!

Maggie Thai is hands down our favorite Thai spot in Boise. The food is amazing—bold, authentic flavors with plenty of vegan options. My daughter is obsessed with the golden fried tofu and the mango sticky rice and our son loves their satay chicken. You can really taste the difference with their homemade, from-scratch sauces, even down to the spice rack. We come here so often that we know the owner and waitstaff, and they recognize us too—which says a lot. It’s always busy, yet we somehow always manage to find a spot. The decor is cute, but honestly, it’s all about the food.

Spectacular! My wife searched and suggested it. We have had poor luck lately. I was grumpy. This strip mall has had above average turnover. Maggie's Thai Kitchen was chill and welcoming. We sat in the cozy "like home" chairs. Everything (I mean everything) was clean and tidy. Service was top notch. Felt like we had known her for years. We laughed about the "heat" concept of Thai food. I selected the Pineapple fried rice. My wife had Panang Curry and her first ever Thai tea. The presentation was artful. Every element was fresh and quality. The mixture of flavors and textures superb. Truly, this is the first time I have ever used the word "superb" in a review. I never had food this perfect while in Thailand! Prices were fair. Also, wheelchair accessible and lots of parking.

While in Boise, we felt like Thai for dinner. Maggie's Thai Kitchen appeared to be the local go to place. Maggie's feels like a family owned business with everyone being very friendly and engaging. Once we were seated, we looked around to see what others were eating. Our standard order is pad Thai and a curry dish. The pad Thai was nicely cooked with chicken and medium spice. The sauce was good and the noodles were not dry. The panang curry with onions, peas, carrots, basil and chicken with medium spice was tasty. The flavor was good but the curry was runny and very thin. Again, the portions were generous and a good value. If you are a Thai fiend and want a good homemade meal, give Maggie's Kitchen a try. The food had good flavor, was reasonable priced and a generous quantity. I would definitely return as the menu has many other dining options that I would be happy to try. To the chef and family, nice job!

Long story short, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back soon to try more. I came in at 2pm on a Friday and received incredible food and service. I've tried five or six different Thai restaurants across Boise over the last month, and Maggie has been my very favorite experience so far. The staff is so kind, and they're very helpful with recommendations. The restaurant is clean and tastefully decorated. The meal started with a small cup of vegetable broth soup. I wasn't expecting much, but it was so packed with flavor. The drunken noodles were exactly what I wanted them to be. They were delivered to my exact spice-level preference, and the flavor was perfect. I wasn't planning to get dessert, but I was having such a great meal that I asked for an order of mango sticky rice. I'm so glad I did, because the mango was wonderful and ripe (keep in mind that it's in the middle of July right now), and the rice and sauce were also very well prepared. I have nothing negative to say, except that there should be more people eating there.

We stopped in after doing some shopping and the food was great. They were under staffed in the front of the house but they worked hard to keepnuo with the customers, to go orders, and uber drivers. They are super friendly and the restaurant was clean. The food was fresh and tasted amazing!

Very friendly people. Fresh food and quick service. Cute interior. In an older strip mall. Unfortunately the soda fountain wasn't working and to taps of beer were also unavailable.

This is a cute little restaurant in a strip mall. The service was spectacular such a warm greeting for the moment I walked in, Very attentive staff they were smiling and sincere really couldn't ask for much more in service. I ordered a garlic chicken dish with tofu. It was so pretty couldn't wait to take a picture for you. The flavors were amazing sweet and tangy and full of garlic crunchies all over the top. The sticky Jasmine rice was a great vessel for getting the sauce to my face.

The food was excellent. The wine was smooth and high class. The staff were very friendly. The service was fast and very personal. The atmosphere was welcoming and warm.

When my companion and I were entering , he lost his balance, the server came out to offer assistance. Our server was kind and very friendly. Our appetizer came out quickly as did our mains I had Drunken Noodle beef level 3 spicy. Absolute perfection. My companion had beef yellow curry level 1.5 said it was very good exactly what he expected for a good yellow curry. The egg rolls are delicious and served with greens and a really yummy sauce. The Thai tea very very good highly recommend

The Tum Tard Set is delicious and should be a staple offers different kinds of protein with a papaya salad.

Pros - Good portion size, nice heat level options, friendly service, nice menu variety of fresh ingredients. They'll do what they can to please you. Lots of parking. Delicious soup with beautiful presentation. Family welcoming. . Cons - Prices high, small waiting area, parking can be a hike when busy. Soup is too much for one. it definitely should be shared. Seating can be tight when busy. Children's voices loud & ruined the atmosphere. No bag with leftovers.

Maggie Thai kitchen has been open for a while and today I finally got the opportunity to go. I have my usual Thai places but you won't know if you're missing out on something if you don't try it. Walking into this place, I noticed how cute and green everything is! The decor, the venue and all the plants added such a fun vibe to this space. I loved the mirrors on the wall. The plush green decor in the front entrance are charming pieces to look at when you walk in. I love how bright it is as well! A lot of thought was put into decorating this space. Everything is so cute! My server greeted me and sat me pretty quickly. I knew what I wanted so as soon as I got my drink I ordered my dinner. Tonight I got the pad see ew with fried tofu. My go to noodle dish when I order Thai food. My noodles came out hot! It was beautiful with all the gai lan, carrots and tofu. The gai lan (Chinese brocolli) was vibrant in color and crunchy. The carrots were cut to look like flowers. I love that detail. The regular brocolli was slightly bitter but still edible. The flavor of the pad see ew was good! It did favor on the saltier side. And unfortunately I didn't like the tofu. I have been spoiled with other Thai places that have amazing fried tofu. I like tofu that's fried golden on the outside but soft in the inside. The tofu they served tonight was really dense and not really fried. I didn't like the dense texture of the tofu so I ended up picking out all the tofu. I appreciate that they gave me generous amount of the tofu. My dish would have been complete if I would have liked the tofu. I'm happy I got to try this local joint out. Service was great, food was prepared fresh and venue is comfortable. I'm kinda bummed that the pad see ew wasn't a winner for me but I do look forward to coming back and trying other items on the menu.

A hidden gem Thai place in Boise! The ambiance is so cute inside. Staff were super friendly. Lots of gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options! Well priced. I got the gluten free Pad See Ewe and it was delicious! I'd definitely go back!

The staff are nice and the food is delicious. I got chicken pad kra pow and it was very spicy (just the way I wanted it!). The portion is a good size for lunch and they have a good lunch menu. The vegetables felt fresh and all the seasonings were on point! I loved the food here and would definitely be back for the lunch sometime.

Delicious, "clean" food & very attentive & friendly service!!! We tried the spicy cucumber salad, Pad See Ew (with no egg), Pad Thai, Yellow Curry with chicken, Crying Tiger & Thai iced teas. Everything came out fast & tasted amazing! So good that I couldn't take pictures of everything in time. Several of us have allergies & food sensitivities which was very easy to work around. My family can't wait to go back :)

My husband and I had been wanting to try another new restaurant so we went to Maggie Thai Kitchen. Don't let the outside fool you as the interior decor is beautiful and the ambiance quite nice. The wait staff was friendly and always smiling. Maggie herself stopped by our table to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. The food was delicious and we will definitely be going back here again to bring other family members with us.

Wow! This place is amazing! Food: 5/5. From our appetizers to desserts, everything was delicious! We started with the Thai spring rolls which were a great start to our meal. We then shared the Tam Tad Set, which had fantastic chicken wings and sausage along with some salad mixing. The Back Rib Pork Curry was an instant favorite that I would highly recommend. We finished with a remarkable Thai Coconut ice cream that was decadent. Service: 5/5. The service was fantastic! We were instantly seated by a very nice gentleman and our waitress was very kind. Everything came out fairly quickly as well. Atmosphere: 5/5. Interesting location tucked in the business center near Hobby Lobby, but I loved the decor inside! Beautifully designed. Kid friendly: 4/5. There were a few older kids there, but may not be suitable for all families. Better for a date night in my opinion. I didn't notice a kids menu, but if your kid likes rice and chicken you should be ok.

Of the many options for Thai food in the treasure valley, Maggie's has the best Penang curry by far.

The food was delicious. I am not particularly a Thai food fan, but I came here with a friend and the food was amazing. Very flavorful and not overdone. The portions were generous the food had a depth of flavor not just one note her tone. They had a lot on their menu and I tried the pad Thai. It was delicious. I will definitely come back. I also had two of the appetizers which were both delicious. It's not a large place and so it has an intimate feel. It's well lit and beautifully decorated. I was very pleased and would recommend it to anyone.

A great place. Dining atmosphere was comfortable, attention was quite good connotation to most similar asian establishments that one they bring out the food, they don't come back unless you call them. I ordered the pad thai, vegetarian. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it didn't have the sweet sauce like most places in the western USA. Semms like it truly is more vegetarian because I didn't taste the fish sauce, more common in the eastern part of US. So while I did feel there was a bit of a lack in some flavor, I recognize that I ordered vegetarian. The portion size didn't seem so big (but I did have trouble finishing it, and I was hungry as I hadn't had lunch). My only knock on it, would be thry could add vegetables and not just have tofu (so it is an option, but it would be nice if some veegies were automatically included). So definitely you want to try this place!

Well they've done away with the lunch menu... and smaller portions...I'm very disappointed. $50 for lunch for 2 is crazy. On top of that, I asked for NO spicy-ness and it was barely edible, my lips are still burning!

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. The curry is amazing! There is plenty of parking, the staff is friendly and will answer every question you have.

I can see why Maggie might be so popular, but I was not impressed. Service is very friendly here, and they try harder than most Thai restaurants to decorate the place. However, the art-for-sale gallery in the bathroom hallway, which looks AI-generated, is kind of a weird vibe. Food-wise, the flavor was ok but half the meal came out super slow. We ordered a chicken curry and beef fried rice. The curry was the better of the two. The fried rice took so long to come out that yellow curry was no longer hot. Not sure if it's a typo but the menu also has two different prices for the beef fried rice...we were given the cheaper price but the quality of meat was not the best. I joked that we should have ordered the one with the higher price. Service speed was spotty. We had several different people checking on us and it was a packed room which I try to be understanding about. But we asked for a takeout container and had to wait several minutes and ask two different people, while another table asked after us and got it right away. So maybe you just have to ask the right person. I wouldn't return immediately based on this experience.

After a long drive home from Seattle, this is definitely what I was looking forward to... Tum Tad Set and Yum Nham. If you haven't tried them, you are missing out! They are my "go-to" at Maggie's.

Came here for dinner with a party of 3 on a Saturday night and it was a packed house! There's plenty of parking inside the plaza where Maggie Thai is, so that's a plus. The decor is cute and matches their restaurant. Luckily, we didn't have to wait long to be seated. However, as time went on, I realized that they were understaffed for how busy they were. They were only two waitresses managing everything front of house, so I can only imagine how backed up the back of house was too. I could tell the other tables seated after me were growing impatient as they had yet to be served waters after waiting 20 minutes. The waitresses were friendly and apologized for not being as attentive. The food was amazing! I ordered the Pad Thai with beef, which was delicious. It's not as sweet as other pad Thai I've had and they put their chili flakes and peanuts on the side so you can add it to your liking. My husband ordered the Back Rib Pork Panang Curry, which was also great! We were told this is growing to be a customer favorite at the restaurant and we can see why. The curry was flavorful and the coconut milk was not overpowering. All in all, will definitely come back here to try their other dishes! Highly recommend Maggie Thai if you're in the area or want to try out a new restaurant

This place is an absolute gem. The food is fresh and well presented. Wonderful tastes. The service is very friendly and helpful. It's our favorite Thai restaurant in the valley by far.

The food is delicious, the servers were outstanding and the decor was stylized in an authentic Thai way!

Excited to try this place for lunch? I was too. We highly recommend. It was so worth the trip! Tam tad set platter with so many goodies. We wanted more noodles, but polished it off. Sausage was interesting flavor. Pad Thai lunch special was exceptional. All with level 2 spice. I had extra on the side. Fresh spring rolls with shrimp had a sauce that was delicious! We shared it all. We had Thai ice tea, a couple traditional and one lime flavored. Service was so thoughtful, attentive and friendly. We are looking forward to exploring the menu and will be back. Thanks for the great meal!

Went with some friends and all of our meals were delicious, hot and fresh. It was amazing since it was super busy but service was fast,accurate and tasty. With only two servers it was amazing.

The best thai food I have had in the valley, and honestly possibly in my life. Period. The service was extremely friendly and all of the staff were kind and courteous. We will be back!

Swung by last night for a date night. Great summer rolls and Pad Thai. Staff were very friendly and always checking in. One minor criticism, the device they use to pay defaults gratuity too high.

For my second visit to Maggie Thai Kitchen yesterday, I brought my mom, who is a fan and a bit of a connoisseur of Thai cuisine. She devoured every bite of her yellow curry pork, saying it might be the best she's ever had. My favorites were the so fresh summer rolls and mango & sweet sticky rice dessert (save room!). Service was attentive and friendly. They opened in October 2023 and seem so grateful to everyone coming through their door. I'll be making it a habit to return frequently!

Very nice staff and good. Will be back and regularly! Curry was the best. So good! Pad Thai was excellent. I love Thai food and this is delicious. Cute decor and nice staff too of the great experience. I took my grandmother and she was in awe with every bite!

Owner / chef operated new Thai restaurant opened on 9/6/23 in the space formerly occupied by Egg Factory in the strip mall that also houses China Buffet and Hobby Lobby. Interesting menu, offering some options not seen in some other Boise area Thai restaurants, good food and gracious table service. There are clearly new place wobbles being worked out for orders coming out of the kitchen, as is true for many places at opening, and language barriers to realize and accommodate; our charming server speaks English better than I speak Thai language (which is not at all) and we were in 'her house' and grateful guests for her care and kindness even if things might run more smoothly without the language obstacles. But they will get there as newly opened changes to open for a while. HOURS: They are open straight through from lunch through dinner hours (many other Thai eateries close for a couple of hours between lunch and dinner service) so we popped in at mid afternoon to find only six other people inside, four at the finishing point of their meals. A tip is if you want to want to avoid what may be lunch or dinner hour crowds as Maggie Thai is discovered, mid afternoon, what we call "linner", is a good time to do that. MENU & FOOD: The menu is about four legal size laminated pages and some items, on opening day, had 'out of stock' labels over top which may mean are not going to be offered at all? Prices run from about $9.00 to $21.00. We chose pumpkin curry, ordered without any of the meat protein added options, and although we eat little animal protein and in general avoid ordering it out unless we know the source of the animal (a la Kin, Terroir, Peaceful Belly, etc) we also chose a house special described as pork belly lettuce wraps. The pumpkin curry ($14.89) was delicious and contained lots of pumpkin, carrots and onions all perfectly cooked and seasoned including many leaves of Thai Basil. We left eager to go back and try other curries because this one was so good. We had never had this pork belly dish ($15.89) at a Thai eatery, it is a special of the house here, and we learned from the owner that the pork belly is boiled then pressure sous vide cooked before slicing to ensure the best outcome. We really enjoyed the beautiful presentation and the abundance of fresh Thai herbs on the plate to use with the wrap. Those herbs are often missing at many Thai eateries as they are hard to source. In a way this dish reminded us of one of our favorite Thai appetizers, Miang Kum, a Northern Thai dish of betel leaf wrapped salad bites. Because the lettuce leaves, veg and fresh herbs served with this were so good we left eager to try the fresh salad rolls here next time. LIBATIONS: Soft libations, including Thai iced tea. Water is offered with ice or without and it comes as bottled water with $1 / charge but a second bottle is offered free if you drink the first. People can be so persnickety, which is why I offer the info about the water charge so diners don't jump all over the poor servers if they feel surprised by this. (PS - After review was posted I heard from restaurant that they have wine and beer license in place for those being served.) AMBIANCE: Pride of ownership shows for how they have tried to reimagine what was a pretty funky space during Egg Factory days to be a welcoming space. My husband and I appreciated the calming music. But this is in a poorly maintained strip mall and that is the strip mall owners issue not theirs so don't let strip mall location discourage you.. ACCESSIBILITY: If you can get in the door here, this is ADA compliant with clear floor space and standard height tables. The loo is too with the exception of the paper towel dispenser being above the 48" ADA and Idaho Code rule which means for a person using a wheelchair or a little person the operating mechanism would not be reachable. (This restaurant inherited that problem but it needs fixing.) However, the strip mall parking lot, and this is the mall owner's problem not the restaurant owner's, has NO curb ramps (aka curb cuts) between the parking lot and the walkway into the shops eateries meaning a person using a wheelchair could not access them. This has been illegal since 1991 when ADA rules and corresponding State Access Chapter building codes kicked in. FUN TIDBIT: This is named after the owner's daughter and the theme is carried forward with a fun illustration of a little girl on the menu front. TAKE OUT: No delivery services as yet but they have a takeout menu that can be used to call ahead for take out orders. It varies a bit from the main menu.

They have great service, very friendly. The food is really good! It's very authentic. We have never had a bad meal there.

Amazing Thai food the best I had in a while very good service and the panag curry is great.

Pleasant atmosphere, bright and clean with low-volume music. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Everything that we had there was delicious - Thai spring rolls, yellow curry with just the right amount of heat, and Pad Thai.

Wow! Best thai food in Boise! Family owned business and a super cute spot. I ventured beyond the regular pad thai and curries because of some unique dishes on their menu. Flavorful and refreshing larb salads and lots of vegan and vegetarian options.

Yelp tribe hit another home-run with this recommendation. From the incredible fresh spring rolls with an unforgettable peanut sauce to the entrees Maggie's is fantastic. Highly recommend!

It was very good. The store was clean and the staff were very friendly. The Boise area suffers from bad Chinese food, this restaurant is a great alternative!

Maggie Thai Kitchen is new to the area, but I've been to a handful of local Thai places, and none come close to Maggie Thai. It's in an unassuming strip mall area, and it's unfortunately a bit small, and considering how busy it was and the amount of people rolling in on a Saturday night, I would consider reservations on a Friday or Saturday. The staff was working hard, eager to greet everyone and make sure all of their customers had what they needed. They were clearly overwhelmed, but they made it work. So great service... I ordered the Maggie salad and the Chicken Tom Kha Gai soup, which is one of my favorite Thai dishes. Both were incredible! The flavors of the salad were fresh and bright, and it was a nice, large salad. The soup came in a beautiful big pot with a lid, so it was easy to share with my husband, and even so, we still had leftovers to take home. The broth was strong and intentional. I loved that there were some added veggies in there rather than a what I've seen from other places - a few pieces of chicken and two mushrooms, lol. Their spicy level is 0-5, and I did a 2, which I could do, but a 1 might be more my speed. I LOVED THE SOUP. It's my new all-time favorite version! My husband ordered his usual that he orders at every Thai restaurant - Pad Thai. This is usually a heavier dish, loaded with a thick peanut sauce, but here, it's made with a lighter, tangy sauce with peanuts on the side. It's incredibly flavorful and I would recommend that you give it a try. So fantastic food... What I love about this place is that people there really care about their food, how it's prepared and presented, and they clearly prioritize their customers, too. The food is vibrant in every way...the way it looks, feels, and tastes. I almost hate to put out this glowing review, because it will create more buzz, and somebody else might beat me to a table!

I went in with my roommates tonight and we had a great experience. Food was amazing and fresh and service was quick and so kind. We can't wait to come back.

Amazing staff! Truly 10/10. The food and proportions were also great. Would recommend!

My wife and I enjoyed our first time here and we loved the cuisine as well as the service without question. We started with the Summer rolls for an appetizer which were very fresh and quite large! They paired exceptionally with the peanut sauce and were gone in short order. Our entrees included the Pad Thai and the Yum Woon Sen. We found both very flavorful and generous in portion. I will say, even if you like spicy (and I very much do...), choose what you think you can handle on the 1 to 5 scale and then back it down one. Both owners came out and chatted with us after our meal about regional Thai cuisine and how so many dishes can differ in their authentic palate from the far corners of Thailand. This will definitely be a place we will return to again and try a variety of their dishes. I encourage you to stop in and indulge the next time you're looking for something new to try.

First time visiting Maggie's the restaurant is located in a retail strip. The atmosphere is nice and the staff is even nicer. We had a curry dish with chicken and a veggie dish with number 3 spice level. Everything was perfect and so tasty. We will definitely be back.

This is one of the tastiest Thai places around. The menu variety is fantastic, going beyond the usual American Thai options. The Back Rib Pork Panang curry was excellent and the Sagoo Pork Filling dumplings were awesome. My wife enjoyed the coconut ice cream with black sticky rice. Our waitress was very nice and helpful and the restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere. It's easy to miss in the shopping center but worth the trip!

Such good curry! I so enjoyed the summer shrimp rolls too. Next time I will go a lower number for the heat, but there will be a next time.

Lunch specials were varied and yummy. Seasonings spot on. Ingredients very fresh. I asked for mild and it was perfect. It still had lots of flavor. Service caring and prompt.

3.75. Nice place, clean and comfortable. Lovely service. Tea can in a giant mug, almost a bowl! But there was lipstick on it. Simmer rolls with shrimp were nice but the peanut sauce was very thin, not the traditional thick sauce you're used to dipping into. Panang curry was good, but also thin with lots of frozen peas and carrots. The Pad see ew was tasty but very oily.
