We've travelled the world and visited some of best ""authentic"" Asian restaurants in the US and beyond. I won't say that Thai Spice is better than these, but it certainly holds it's own against many of them. What a nice surprise tucked away in a hidden corner of this non-descript strip mall near Safety Harbor. We've eaten here at least 20x in the last year, and the entrees are consistently fresh, with rich flavors, balanced heat, and just the right mixture of exotic spices. The service is attentive but not intrusive, and every course is delivered with a sincere smile from an authentic Thai staff. The place is cozy, so call ahead to reserve a table. We're lucky to have this delightful place right around the corner from our house, but it's well worth a trip over US-19, or a hop across one of the bridges. You won't be disappointed.
Pros: authentic Thai food, attentive service, cozy atmosphere
Cons: can get busy on a weekend - might want to call ahead
