Let me start by saying I LOVE Thai food. In fact for the past year and a half, at work I have designated Friday as Thai Friday. Taking orders from all my co-workers for Thai lunch. After reading all the amazing reviews of the Thai Chef, it was a must on my Vacation to Maui. To start, the staff was... more

May '08 was our second visit to Maui and second visit to Thai Chef. Dinner for 5 was $106. Portions were so small I had to order 2 of each entree and actually felt that caused the portions to shrink even more. Even with 6 entrees for 5 people they charged extra for rice. Service was cold and inefficient. They... more

We visited the Thai Chef last night and had a great Thai meal, however after reading all of the reviews here I expected the best Thai I had ever had - that wasn't the case. We ordered the chicken satay, which had rave reviews, but found it to be dry and not very tasteful. We then ordered the Yellow Curry... more

Great low prices, great food, great service. Lots of awards. Loved by locals. A little hard to find by GPS or address. Located behind buildings on the popular toursity Front St of Lahaina. If you find the address on Front St, find out how to get around behind the building to find a row of small shops that includes Thai... more

A great hidden jewel just off Front Street in Lahaina, tucked away in a parking lot. The Thai toast and Thai coffee are worth going for alone. Dining room is small, so go early or be prepared to wait. Food is relatively inexpensive, and the place is friendly to families and groups. more

The food at this place is fantastic. Some of the best Thai food I have ever had. Had it as take out. The restaurant itself is a small area inside. Definitely something to try on a trip to Maui. The Chili Shrimp are fantastic. more

Best Thai food I have had outside of Thailand. The Ginger Opakapaka was great and not hot & big peice of fish. The Chili Shrimps were great and VERY hot even at medium. rought own wine and reduced my cost even more. Located downtown in the big shopping mall. A great place but small-call for reservation suggested. more

A local favorite. Family owned and operated. Food is really great and fairly reasonable. Arrive early because the restaurant is very small and very popular more

Grab your own bottle of wine and head to Thai Chef for authentic Thai cuisine. Since they have no liquor license, it is BYO with no corkage fee. The menu is authentic and the food is excellent. I lived in Thailand for one year and the food is as good as what you get in Thailand itself. Good idea to... more

We were pleasantly surprised with this great local find. It was full of locals, which is always a good sign. It's on the small side, but worth the wait. You can also get take-out if you wish. This restaurant is BYOB, so you can bring in your own beer or wine to save a few dollars. Delicous food at very... more
