Thai Archer Restaurant Utah

I ordered the lunch special combination of Thai Basil stir-fried (#3) and Green curry (#9). The green curry was quite spicy (level 2), but it was very tasty and I liked it! The side dishes of spring rolls and fried wontons were also good. There were a few customers ordering takeout, but there were only 3 other people eating in. We had a great time chatting and eating slowly.

Amazing service and food! I came here with two friends for some dinner on a Friday night and we were blown away with the quality. Our server was amazing and extremely attentive. The food was phenomenal and portions were very filling. The presentation on the Tom ka soup was awesome show stopper. We ordered the tempura vegetables and Tom ka for a starter, drunken noodles with pork and yellow curry with chicken. All of the dishes were phenomenal and we highly recommend.

Food Quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Don’t skip on: the Pahd Kee Mao and Mango Sticky Rice!! I loved my first experience at this cute Thai restaurant run by the sweetest ladies! The small and quaint restaurant made you feel like you’re at home and an aunty is cooking for you. I came with a few friends and we ordered the dumplings, Thai iced tea, Pahd Kee Mao, green curry, yellow curry and the mango sticky rice. Everything was so flavorful and came out steaming hot - my preferred temperature! The mango sticky rice was perfect - mangoes were ripe, and there was a good ratio of rice to coconut sauce to mango. The staff were so sweet and the restaurant was clean. Can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu!

Quick stop by for lunch specials , yum.!!! I got Thai Basil with tofu so good . BBQ pork is quite good also . My mother in law's favorite here is Mongo and sticky rice . We will be back for sure . ✨🤩

Sweeeeeet little neighborhood spot! Green curry and yellow curry were both delicious and perfectly spiced, and spring rolls were crispy and yummy. Service was lovely and the patio looks perfect for warmer weather.

We arrived at this restaurant and were the only guests so we weren't sure what to expect. We were so pleased with the food and service. We had the egg rolls and 2 beef waterfall salads and they were so good. Do not be fooled if you arrive and it isn't busy. It was fantastic and the patio is perfect for spring!

Have been to many Thai restaurants in Salt Lake and in many other cities: for many years - So in my opinion this place is worthy of a 5-Star rating on all levels. The food is always flavorful, the presentation excellent and the staff pleasant and informative. Many choices - all of which are individual in terms of taste - this is NOT a place where everything tastes the same. I highly recommend eating there or to take out - either way. The portions are also generous - so one dish can be additional meals - a huge plus. Authentic for sure.

This place is awesome!.. I love all the dishes I have tried so far. Really awesome that they let you choose how mild or hot you want your dish on a scale of 1-4.Also, the lunch deal is very reasonably priced for how good the food is.

Thai Archer is one of the most popular Thai restaurants in Salt Lake City. The purple building alone catches your attention. Having dined here a couple of times over the last decade I'm excited to finally write this review. The cream cheese wontons are pretty standard, crunchy, and delicious. The satay skewers are also pretty standard with a sweet peanut sauce. My personal favorite dish is the Pad Jao Pra Ya. The vegetables, chicken, and peanut sauce are delicious and the perfect medley. The murder wings are also delicious with a spicy bbq sauce. The Pad Thai is our favorite in Utah! The Pad See ew is good, but left more to be desired. A great take out spot with a confident drive up window. They also have a great lunch special!

Another delicious takeout from Thai Archer!! I think I mentioned it last time, but obviously forgotten, I think Thai Archer might be my favorite!! Ordered on DoorDash and everything was perfect!! My husband got Fried Rice with tofu, our son got Drunken Noodles with pork and our daughter got Eggplant Stir Fry with chicken. I got the Sweet and Sour with tofu and it was hands down the best I've ever had!!! Perfectly seasoned!! I've only gotten takeout, but have never been disappointed!! I just need to remember how much I love Thai Archer and just stick with them!!

Incredible service and food. Such a pretty spot for two people. The food always tastes like it's made with love... so home-made! It's been my favorite restaurant in Salt Lake since I found it. Truly a hidden gem.

Great food, service and ambiance. I had Larb Gai, it was good per usual. But once again I forgot They don't have a beer and wine license.

Overly soupy pad thai lacking authentic taste. *ordered takeout* Pros: - large portion (could def feed two) Cons: - was very heavy in its "sauce" with a very strong sweet "tomatoe?" taste. - no utensils or napkin in takeout bag Service: - was quick and they were nice. Overall: - This is my first time ordering from here so tbh i dont know how good their other menu items are. In my case, if you're looking for authentic pad thai, id skip this place. I ordered online and my food was ready under 10 mins. Food didnt feel fresh and felt more reheated. Disappointing experience. 4/10

Stopped in on a Tuesday night for some dinner and ate out on the cute patio. We got some great recommendations from our waitress on what to get- we settled on green curry and pineapple curry. Both were good and plated beautifully, but the green curry was our favorite. We were surprised at how good it was based on the cost, and we will be coming back!

By far my favorite Thai restaurant. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, restaurant is very clean and beautiful decoration. Highly recommend this place.

I went there a few months ago with my friends and my pad Thai was legit rancid. Don't recommend.

I'm embarrassed to say it's taken me a decade to try this little Thai option off 11th in my neck of the woods. There are some really solid Thai options in SLC and I tend to get set in my ways with my faves. The experience, food, service and ambience were nice overall though I think I'll probably lean back into my go to Thai faves going forward and I have a couple of reasons why: 1) No alcoholic bevvys. If I'm going out to dinner at a restaurant, as an adult, this is a no brainer. Thai Archer needs a liquor license. Feeling fuzzy will always elevate the food and social experience. 2) Small/cramped/slightly shabby space. The Asian decor worked but it felt like the space was maze-like, unintentional, too small, and needing some updates and love. I appreciated locality and family owned feel, but it does need some investment. Also, the front facade has always been off putting for me - looks like roughly cut and painted purple plywood installed against a converted Sugarhouse bungalow, and it doesn't work. 3) Food was good and above average, but it lacked personality and memorability. The red and yellow curries were flavorful, as was the Tom Yum soup. The Thai tea wasn't my jam. I do think with some investment this could be a local gem with booming business, but it doesn't feel like a priority of the current ownership. This place is never packed, but that may be intentional and part of the charm that is this little low-key and overlooked Thai option in Sugarhouse.

Green curry was pretty good, pad Thai not good at all, very ketchupy and sweet, does not taste authentic. I would go here again but I would get something else.

Perfect lunch place. portions are just right. Price is excellent. The place is cute, the owner is so nice! And they have vegetarian options for all (most?) dishes. Will be back for sure.

Unbeatable, curry and cashew stir fry chicken really hit the spot, big servings. Great service and very friendly staff, and never a wait!

Thai Archer was my go to Thai place and the last two times I've been here, the consistency has been disappointing. During my last visit, we had ordered a shrimp dish and the shrimp were undercooked and raw inside and we had to send it back. We asked for new plates and utensils in fear of contamination and thankfully no one got sick. Although they cooked up a new dish, the thought of having shrimp again wasn't appealing.

I normally do not leave reviews but this was legitamately the worst Thai restaurant and the worst food I've had in SLC and the biggest waste of money and a night of getting Thai take out. Nothing tasted like Thai food whatsoever. My pad thai was covered in a tomato-flavored sauce - no tamarind or peanut flavor whatsoever - with only minimal chicken, eggs that tasted horrible, and carrots that tasted past their expiration date. The dumplings lacked any flavor. The Thai Murder Wings that were supposed to be covered in a Thai hot and spicy herbs sauce were covered in what tasted like a generic BBQ sauce and again just horrible. Someone in my group got the Weeping Tiger that was 1/4 meat and the rest was gristle and fat so it was basically inedible and not a full entree at all. The only thing decent in this order was a Tom Yum Soup. Avoid at all costs

Great food!! The service was great and the outside patio was lovely. The waitress was very polite.

New favorite thing on the menu: massaman curry. Satay chicken was pretty good. They have mango sticky rice!

food is fabulously delicious and great prices with large portions The owners are absolutely wonderful and service was great. It was a delight. The atmosphere is fun and there is also a great patio out front. Love the decor, best Thai food around.

This delivery was probably the smallest amount of food I have ever received from a restaurant. Tom kha ga was in a size of a sauce container and full of mushrooms. Hardly any chicken but what do you expect from that container. Larb salad wasn't much better but tasted good, not a spicy 3 tho. They charged me another $2.14 for white rice instead of sticky rice. I don't know why? Shady. Physical restaurant is not open to sit down and take out was difficult to order so we left.

I kept driving by this place while in the neighborhood and wanted to check it out simply for the design from the outside. I love the building decor and flags on the patio. It looked like a traditional Thai place and I had to check out the food. The space appears to be a house that was remodeled for the restaurant so the tables are set in rooms. It's small and quaint yet has plenty of seating. We were seated along the front windows and there was a draft coming up from the floor or window so it made our legs cold. We each ordered Boba smoothie (1 mango and 1 milk tea) and an order of the cream cheese wontons to start. We wanted the chicken satay but they were all out. Hubby ordered the Moo Yang (Thai BBQ pork) and I ordered the Pad Siew for the entrees. Wontons were nice and crisp yet still chewy on the outside with the soft gooey center and the sauce was a perfect sweet and sour and the right color. Moo yang -Pork is nice and tender, the sauce is sweet and tangy with just a little heat (ordered level 1), and the rice is cooked perfectly sticky. The dish is really just pork with some cabbage and rice on the side. So he said he would recommend getting it as a dish to share with the rice and then order a veggie dish to compliment it. Pad Siew- noodles were good and the veggies were steamed with just enough crispness to counter the softness of the noodles. The sauce had a bit of heat to the finish, more than I would have liked ordering a 0 level spice, and it had some more ginger flavor than I am used to, but it was still delicious. Portion was bigger than the pork so I had leftovers but that's just a bonus for tomorrow. Boba smoothie was so good with a spot on consistency and the flavor popped. Interesting to have the milk tea blended as the hubby usually has it over ice. We ordered coconut sticky rice with mangoes for dessert and it was soooo good. Rice was sticky and creamy and the mangoes were ripe. I also enjoyed the raspberry coulis drizzle around the plate. Service was a little spotty and spaced out (waited to place orders, then had several people checking on us during the meal, then we had to wait again for the check and wait again to run the card). It seemed like they were swamped with how long it took, but there were only 4 tables seated while we were there. Staff was friendly perhaps they were just short staffed or new. Overall food was good; I just have other favorite places I was comparing all the dishes to so it didn't necessarily come up to those standards.

We ordered take out of 7 entrees/a few sides, spice level "2" of 5 to be safe. Everything was fantastic, we had plenary of food for the 8 of us at home, all of us beyond full because it was too tasty. Oddly, Level "2" spice was plenty spicy even for our spice lovers so when we order again we will stick with that. Lovely employees, easy to order online, pick up was speedy. Great experience!

Very friendly service, great food, cool ambiance. Had the pad thai and nam tok. At 2.5/4 spice level wasn't spicy, just an enjoyable dish.

Bit of a mixed review, I came to try the lunch special ($9) and was surprisingly disappointed. I got the Tom Kha Soup and sweet soy stir fry with mushrooms. I liked the soup, but I would get it with a 1 or 2 spice level (out of 4) since it doesn't add to the flavor and I think they just add in chili flakes I think. The soy stir fry was basically inedible it was so salty. I got both of my entrees with tofu instead of chicken, and that may have been the issue cause the tofu was terrible. It was dry, tough and chewy, and tasted as if it was cooked a while ago and then tossed into the dishes at the last moment. I was very disappointed, especially since the tofu was the same price as the chicken. Don't know if that was an off day or what but they definitely need to do better with their tofu, and making it even slightly cheaper would incentivize more ppl to choose the vegetarian option. While alone this would be a 2 star experience, I am giving 3 still because I have been a couple other times and have really enjoyed their tender and juicy BBQ pork as well as the Mango Sticky Rice. I also like that you can upgrade your drink to Thai Tea or Thai Coffee for an extra $1 on the lunch special. But the tofu game needs a serious step up.

Drunken noodles are delish. I get mine a spice level 3 but I LOVE hot food. Best cream cheese wontons. I order this for delivery way too much.

I had pahd Ma Kua (egg plant stir fried) with tofu and it was so delicious. I haven't been to Thailand so I don't know if this is authentic, but the taste itself was so convincing! I'd love to point out that their rice is very good too. I used to find it hard to find a place that has really good rice and this place makes the list. My curb side order was good. They have a window for drive through and the owner had their mask on.

We had quite the unusual evening. Based on the reviews we were looking forward to sitting down and having a delicious Thai dinner...inside. We arrived to a few people eating on the patio and a sign on the door to order "at the window". We walked up to the driveup and the gal said we could call in the order and she would bring the food out to us. We took a seat on the patio and called to place our order. The gal from the window brought us waters but said we couldn't use the bathroom. Let's just say it's hard to make it through a meal drinking large glasses of water while you desperately need ehem 'relief'. When I asked where I could go, she suggested I walk to 7-11!! I chose to hold it. We ordered our dishes a '4' on the spice scale and our mouths were on fire and noses running. A three would have been perfect. But the price was decent and just thinking about the food is making me drool. Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mao are to die for!

I ordered delivery and it arrived right before the delivery window, super quick. I got the green curry level 3 spicy, chicken satay and house salad with coconut water. The curry and peanut sauce dressing was delicious the chicken satay was a little dry and overcooked. The coconut water spilled little in the carry out bag and got everything sticky. Overall I'm pleased with the food and delivery service. Would order again in the future.

Great food! The dining room is currently closed, so the only way to pick up is at the side window & call the number posted. (Don't go to front door like I did!)

Ordered mild. Food was super spicy, apparently, they cannot read, or they do not give a sh@t.

Best Thai food in salt lake by far. Our server was also so kind and attentive. It really made the experience 10x better. :)

The staff here are really nice and prompt on food and drinks. Though the service was good, the food is average. I tried their pineapple curry, tom yum soup, and pork belly stir fry. I'm still not convinced this would make it in my top favorite Thai spots. If you live nearby it's a great place to quickly satisfy your Thai cravings though. Likes: Friendly staff, clean restaurant, extensive menu, cute patio seating, vegan friendly. Dislike: Boba was hard, but the smoothie was refreshing and light for a hot summer day. I'll go with no boba next time.

One of the best restaurants I have ever stepped into. Family owned restaurant where the mom is the chef, her son is the waiter and the staff are Family. Everyone super friendly. Aside from the amazing staff, the food was out of this world. Homemade Thai food is hard to find and good Homemade food is even harder. Well look no further. THE BEST THAI restaurant I have ever been to. Will continue going for my remaining of my trip. WOW

Consistently delicious. I love that this neighborhood spot exists, because it just had delicious dishes. We ordered for pickup, and it was yet again another top notch meal. I ordered the Pahd Jao Pra Ya - a peanut buttery sauce with veggies and i added pork as my protein. Let me tell you, that dish was amazing. I wanted so much more broccoli because of how the sauce was soaked up by the florets was too tasty. It was my first time getting this dish, and I know that I will be ordering it again. My typical go to is the Gang Keow Wan (Green curry). Another note - i always order pork, and at so many restaurants it is just dry. Not at Thai Archer. Their pork is tender and flavorful, and i haven't been disappointed yet. My husband ordered his standard dish of Pahd Siew and he loved every bite (as did I when i stole some).

Your girl loves some SPICY food and Thai Archer deeeelivers. This place is incredibly cute and has wonderful Thai food for a great price. They are vegetarian friendly and can probably make vegan upon request. Everything I, and my friends,have tried so far is delish. I recently had the pineapple curry with tofu and it had a nice heat and sweet flavor. Other favorites around the table include BBQ pork ribs, Tom kha soup, cream cheese wontons, and sweet & sour chicken. Along with this, their Thai iced tea is super yum! There are so many options on the menu and I am excited to try more! :-)

Literally the absolute worst Thai food I've ever experienced in the last 30 years of eating Thai around the world. My Pad See Yew noodles came white in spots with the spice mix just sitting on top, not even stirred in, and with no flavor except for the overly spicy blandness, (I ordered medium spicy). Couldn't even eat them. Oh and that goes for the Drunken Noodles as well, they appear to use the same bland spice mix for most of the dishes that delivers no actual flavor, just something like overwhelming msg and heat powder. The Tom Yum soup had good quality coconut milk, and a faint touch of the expected sugary limey tartness, but with overly raw vegetables and no galangal or any of the usual proper flavor. And definitely do order the Jungle Curry if you want anything that resembles curry, it was a clear watery broth with raw veggies in it. The worst about the whole experience was the customer service communication, from first the hostess and later the manager. Both of them immediately interrupted us to defend, derail and counter our complaints and feedback rather then simply receive constructive criticism. The call with the manger was literally maddening, going in circles for over 20 minutes with him being defensive and non receptive while our friend delivered the most patience and respectful communication. If the it hadn't been such a terrible experience with the customer service, perhaps we wouldn't have bothered to leave a bad review here.

Always great cuisine and very friendly and family owned.. Late evening patio dining as it compliments the surroundings

Ordered this to be delivered after a long day and I was not disappointed. I got chicken pad Thai and thought it was really yummy and very generously sized. I often think in pad Thai, there is too much of a peanut flavor, but this has many other flavors and spices. I'm hoping to eat at the restaurant soon!

Love this place in general but of late the quality has really gone downhill. Ordered the calamari and it was burnt. I called and drove back to get a replacement. They said 15 minutes, it was 25 minutes so I waited an extra ten in the parking lot. Second batch was either burnt or raw. It was apparent the cook did not inspect the food either time. Don't get the calamari.

I have been looking for a place like this For-Ever! Flavor explosion all three dishes. And I found my Basil dish that tastes like my favorite Thai in California. Price averages around 10.50 a dish. We did family style and ordered three dishes for 2 people and had some to take home. Panang Curry with Pork was a flavor unlike any Curry in SLC, spice is Mild to warming. Larb Gai- blended chicken soaked with lime juice, mint, and onions... This is a good blend of everything. I may not order this here again. Pad ga prow- Stir fried with strong fresh Basil and gentle Jalapeno flavor and powerful fish. I have looked all over Utah for this amazing dish! That is a winner!!! Clean restaurant with a cafe type of seating. The waitress never let my water get half empty. She was very attentive and gave great personal preferences for the curry. We took her advice on the Panang Curry and we are very happy with the whole dish! All the veggies are fresh! Slightly firm but perfectly flavored. We met the chef who came out after the rush to greet the patrons... Wonderful to meet him. Outstanding customer service! Decor is casual with a few squirrels on the front steps that made me smile. My new favorite Thai restaurant!

A dissappmting experience! I wanted this place to be great, it is close to home and people had said good things about it. We had the massaman curry and pad Thai with spring rolls. The spring rolls were boring and the sauce weak and flavorless. The pad Thai was to sweet, and my partner refused it as left overs and and most of the dish was left over. The massaman was pretty good although really small portion and only one potato chunk with to many carrot slices. The staff was friendly although forgetful and I don't believe honest. One of our items never came out and yet was on the bill, let the waitress know that we never received it and to remove it from the bill. She agreed and took my card and the bill. When she returned the prices was the same as the original bill. Asked to have it refunded back to the card was told ok. After some time she finally went to ask some one and more time went by. They eventually gave me a few dollar bills and change. I HATE having to carry change and singles, pointed out this was not on the card and they started talking. Eventually we just left. Prices are high for the small portions, limited menu and blandness of the food. Add that with the attempted description/theft defiantly a place to avoid.

Everything I've had so far has been very flavorful and delicious. I think the Massaman curry and the Tom Kha have been my favorites. Excellent customer service, the best I've experienced in a long time.

Coming from Southern California I craved for Thai Original BBQ (in Chino Hills). I went here today but you can only order through a window. To my dismay, when I got home- the BBQ chicken was cut into strips! Not only do they look like scraps, but no sign that it was even grilled! It was dry and there is no sauce. I will not order this ever again. I will give them another try to see maybe the more common dishes like Phad Thai or Tom Yum or Rad Nah is better.

This is my new favorite Thai restaurant in SLC. As I grew up in Vietnam and has been to Thailand several time, i can tell the unique thing about this restaurant is authenticity. My husband and i came here for dinner and it was not so packed for a Sunday night. We ordered satay chicken for appetizer, then eggplant stir fry with chicken and salmon panang curry. The satay chicken was good but a bit dry while the main courses were phenomenal. I loved the flavors of both dishes as i could tell they were not made from pre-made sauce bottles or canned food. My husband loves spicy food so he had the spicy level number 4, which i could see some smashed Thai chilies in the sauce. The salmon panang curry was so delicious since it was creamy and rich with coconut milk, but not to overbearing. The fish itself was a bit dry but it was pretty big, and i really loved the flavor of shredded kafir lime garnished on top of the fish - yes details matter. I couldn't finish the whole meal and took the rest for to go. The waitresses were all Thai and very friendly. The sittings by the windows were very nice and bright. I also saw people coming in for pickups, so i will definitely either come back or order pickups next time.

Great amendments to their business around COVID. They turned one of their windows into a drive through and present your bagged order on a tray to avoid too much contact. I really appreciate their efforts- and the food is awesome!!

Favorite Thai restaurant in Salt Lake City! They always get the orders right, down to every detail. The massaman curry and yellow curry are always delicious. Also always have to get the tom kha. So good!

We regularly get take out from here and everyone is happy. Quick and delicious. My 5 year old Loves the fried rice and I love every curry I've tried.

This is my go-to Thai place in SLC!! I've never had a poor experience here, the foods always ready earlier than anticipated, and it's just delicious. I get the green curry with tofu every time and it's so flavorful and perfectly spicy. I like spicy food and their "3" on the 1-5 scale is very spicy but doable! Totally recommend this place to any Thai food lover.

We ordered take-out. Delivery was very fast, and they got the order right. I ordered Moo Nam Tok Salad, and my niece ordered Gang Sub Pa Lod (extra spicy). The portions were large, and the ingredients were very fresh. The sticky rice was carefully wrapped in plastic, and then a layer of foil to keep it warm. I will definitely order from this restaurant again, and hope to visit it in person once the Covid lock-down has lifted!

I ordered from this place through Uber eats last weekend and loved the option to select the heat level. For my pahd Thai I ordered a level 1 and drunken noodles a level 2 (out of 5) and I swear my tongue was going to fall off. I was super excited about seeing that as an option as I I like more of a mild heat but I couldn't even at my meal! My boyfriend who loves spicy food was able to eat some of it but had to stop because it was just too much. So overall, was disappointed with what was given and ended up having to get myself something else for dinner
