Mai-Tai in Mannheim

If you love Thai culture and authentic Thai food that tastes just like it does in Thailand, this is the place for you. It’s a little corner of Thailand, right in the heart of Mannheim. Everyone is warm, welcoming, and full of smiles. The service is excellent, the owners are friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious. If I had to suggest one slight improvement, it would be to add the larger bottles of Singha and Chang to the menu since only the 0.33-liter ones are currently available. Thank you for the wonderful experience. I’ll definitely come back to this restaurant every time I’m in town.

Anyone who wants authentic Thai food must eat here. All the dishes are delicious. The service is excellent. I'd happily return.

Great restaurant. Super courteous service. Food is fantastic. Reservations are recommended as Mai Tai is always busy.

great dishes with original ingredients. Authentic ambience. Attentive staff.

Very tasty food, very pleasant and attentive service

Super delicious food Super friendly staff Great atmosphere

We were in Mai Thai for the first time today and would love to come back. The papaya salad was very tasty and tasted very fresh. My main course was very spicy which exactly suited my taste. The chilli variations that were included were also very tasty and varied in spice. The homemade Thai iced tea was also very good. The conditions and staff are very friendly.

Top service from the moment you book. Warm welcome despite the crowds. Succulent meal and the kitchen is attentive to allergens. To finish, the fried banana with its vanilla ball... we wanted to lick the bowl.... in short, highly recommended

Always delicious. Very good service and ambience.

My Review was in 02.02.2023 Let my pictures tell the lovely food experience and beautiful evening with Mai Tai We got personally welcome from friendly teams (Nok)organizing tables as reservation. The vibes and atmosphere are very good like small vacation in island beach restaurant in thailand to make any conversations more tasty even food is not served :) Cuisine is just beyond our expectations as i am also thai and i can say this kind of food taste and style taste are very authentic and unique in Mannheim like here is more than just Thai restaurant but here you can feel the sincere friendliness from all team (and especially very casual at the bar )

I really liked how many fresh vegetables and variations you have on the menu! The Thai cucumber salad is my absolute favorite – tastes like a vacation in Thailand!

Food was excellent and lot of options to chose from Menu.. Try it you won't be disappointed..

Good ambience, nice service. My crispy duck with vegetables, garlic and pepper came relatively quickly, but not too quickly. It was delicious and filling.

I was there for lunch yesterday. There is a special lunch menu at lunchtime and the meals consist of soup and a main course. The food is the right amount for a lunch break. It was delicious, the service was quick and it was reasonably priced. Delicious authentic Thai food. Gladly again!

My friend and I ate there last week. He had a 4cm piece of plastic in his food! When we brought this to the attention of the service person, she wanted to discuss this with the boss. I saw her talking about it with her colleagues outside the kitchen as they looked at the piece of plastic on the plate. There was no apology or compensation. My friend had been feeling sick since eating and was vomiting profusely for hours afterwards. We're definitely not coming back!

Everything just fits! We'd love to come back. Thank you for the lovely evening. We were thrilled with the food.

Great service and very tasty food. Really good value for money.

I wasn't impressed with the starter - fried chicken meatballs. The main course - fried noodles with beef - was good. In general, I was quite impressed with most of the main courses and see more of the strengths there than, for example, in the soups. The service is very attentive and the dishes come relatively quickly. The outdoor area directly at the Augusta facility is far too loud and too exposed to exhaust fumes. If you visit often, you can notice a great similarity between the dishes - no wonder given the huge number of items on the menu. The new operator has "adjusted" the pricing, as they put it: an additional portion of rice with a main course is now charged at €3.50. I could understand that given the rather cheap lunch menu, but I find it strange given the regular main courses with the modest rice bowls as an accompaniment, especially since the portions are already characterized by their clarity and the generous distribution of decorative carrot arrangements. I couldn't describe the dish as particularly spicy, despite the three stylized peppers on the menu

The food is very tasty, the service is good, the quality is good, the restaurant is beautifully decorated, you feel like you are eating in Thailand

Highly recommended, great cuisine, great service

We reserved a table for two people at very short notice and were completely thrilled. The ambience is extremely beautiful and inviting – you immediately feel at home. The service was excellent: attentive, friendly and professional. The food impressed with its authentic taste and high quality. The price-performance ratio was also absolutely good. We will definitely come back and can fully recommend Mai-Tai!

Authentic location with very tasty food! The Mango Sticky Rice dessert is 10/10!

After eating there several times in the past, I went there for dinner today with my family. Since we lived in Singapore and visited Thailand regularly back then, we love the food. But today it was a disappointment. Ambience and service are very good, but as I said, the food was not as expected. Instead of being fried, my Gai Pad Med Ma Muong was shredded chicken cooked in a soy-heavy sauce. There's no other way to call it, sorry. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture because I was disappointed. The starters were okay.

Everything was amazing! The food was so delicious and beautifully arranged. If i'm going to mannheim again, i'm definitely coming back.

A culinary gem of Thai cuisine If you want to experience authentic Thai cuisine, this restaurant is an absolute must. As soon as you enter the restaurant you will be enchanted by the warm, inviting atmosphere. My culinary highlight is undoubtedly always the Som Tam – the famous green papaya salad. For me the best one outside of Thailand - and I've tried a lot ;) In addition to the food, the service is also impressive. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and authentically warm - you feel completely welcome and valued. This restaurant is not just a place to eat, but a journey for the senses. If you are longing for Thailand or simply want to immerse yourself in the country's diversity of flavors, this is the right place for you. We will definitely come back and can recommend this culinary short vacation to everyone!

Came here and was not disappointed at all. This restaurant was very impressive. After coming, I felt warm and the food was delicious. Wein Gut Service Perfect number one👍👍👍

Very nicely decorated restaurant, very well maintained and clean. People like to sit here a little longer for a dessert or a second drink. A pleasant contrast to other Asian restaurants, which often operate on the "quick in, quick out" principle. The food has been very tasty on all my previous visits without exception. There was only one visit where there were long waiting times when the restaurant was full to capacity and a server was probably unavailable - that can happen and I don't understand why some people deduct a star for something like that. I would also like to say on a positive note that the takeaway food is packaged in high quality, you don't have to worry about aluminum trays and toxic Styrofoam here. Overall, highly recommended. If you're looking for cheap quick food, you'll have to go somewhere else.

We recently had dinner here with our team. Most of us were here for the first time and we will definitely come back. The interior is very attractive and the atmosphere is very pleasant. We were warmly welcomed and immediately felt very comfortable. The staff was very courteous and attentive throughout the evening. The food was super tasty, with large portions. This is how the evening should be when eating out and that's why I can only recommend the Mai Tai!

As a Thai person. This restaurant is one of the "Bring-you-back-to-Thailand". 🇹🇭 They have "Thai atmosphere", smiles and warm warming feeling.🥰 The food, though Western style but still keeps the spice and tastes like the original Thai. Recommended food : Larb chicken 💯

We ate very tasty food and felt very comfortable.

Delicious food, nice ambience, very nice service.

Very tasty food, friendly staff & a very nice restaurant. The Thai iced tea is amazing!! Highly recommended, best Thai in Mannheim 😍

Very nice facility, friendly and good staff. The food was very tasty and authentic like in Thailand

We were there during the week and everything was reserved. We are very familiar with Mai-Tai, we like to go here for lunch, including soup and a choice of dishes, or in the evening, main courses around 10 euros, large portions. That evening we received the menus and there were two children and 6 adults sitting at the next table. The adults got their food there first, which I thought was stupid. Furthermore, there are no longer any main courses around 10 euros in the evening, I took one of the cheap dishes, beef with vegetables for 17.90. The dish came quickly, but the dish turned into a lot of vegetables with the occasional bit of beef, far too little for an adult. In the past, rice was always delivered free of charge upon request, but it now costs 6 euros. I ordered spicy, I didn't notice it at all, it was a standard soy sauce. We paid 48 euros, the last time we were there it was just under 30 and we used to always leave completely full, this time we could have given it away. That was nothing, the white bowl, usually with a mountain of food, was only half full. Too bad...

So delicious! Especially the dishes with duck 😍

It's my second time here and it doesn't disappoint me still. The food is always superb, very authentic and delicious. The service is totally great and the restaurant's atmosphere is very warm. The people who works here specially Rich is very accommodating to us and to every guest. Keep it up guys! 🩷

We ordered Pad Thai Gai here and it was really good. The portion was also generous. We'd love to come back!

Authentic Thai specialties, courteous, friendly service, pleasant atmosphere. Always an experience.

The three of us spontaneously went out for dinner and were treated very friendly. The vegetarian menu isn't that big, but upon request we were able to order tofu instead of chicken (at no extra charge). The ambience is very nice and invites you to sit for a long time. It worked for us without a reservation, but in general you should probably call ahead. It was well filled. Overall, highly recommended!

We had amazing food and service as well!

Very tasty food, friendly staff and nice restaurant. It was a great evening, highly recommended.

The food was really excellent, but I have to say that I found the selection to be far too large. There are so many delicious dishes on the menu, but that's exactly why it's very difficult to choose something. It would have been enough for me to have been able to choose from half as many dishes and I still would have been overwhelmed, I think. Everything we finally ordered was very tasty. The service is wonderful: all the staff are incredibly nice and accommodating and really great hosts. We felt completely at home and would love to come back. I also thought it was great that at the end there was a digestive on the house and it wasn't the usual sweet liqueur, but that you could choose what you wanted The price-performance ratio is also right

Very clean, delicious food, beautiful surroundings and such nice servers, so my favorite restaurant doesn't get any better than this.

Excellent Thai “We have been regular guests for years and not without reason. Everything works for us here. Even after the change of ownership, the standard was maintained and even increased. A specialty menu is new with great dishes. Service is first class and very friendly. Good thing we only live a 3-minute walk away

very, very good food, attentive and fast service!

The food is very delicious and the service is very good. Next time will definitely come again.

The atmosphere of the shop is beautifully decorated. Spotless, very delicious food There is a chance to go back to eat again.

Very tasty, very nice, reasonably priced.

As always, everything was delicious and beautiful

Absolutely authentic Thai cuisine. André the new owner is very welcoming and professional. The Thai dishes are very tasty. The price-performance ratio is right.

The person who attended me was friendly and courteous and recommended dishes to try out as per my preferences. The ambience is nice as well though the location is a bus ride away from the city center. The food was decent too.

very tasty food; nice staff and cozy atmosphere :) So far we can highly recommend the red curry with chicken and Pad Thai! We always like to come back

Perfect, really! Don't know what could be better. Extremely delicious food. Large selection of dishes. A paradise for vegetarians too. I had vegetables with green curry. Super deliciously seasoned, just the right amount of spiciness. Service was extremely friendly, respectful and attentive. Everyone looks after you lovingly. Food came super quickly. The beer even faster. When it was empty, immediately noticed my look and came up to me to offer me a new one. And I was by no means the only customer in the restaurant. Super pleasantly furnished. And there were some Asians among the guests. They know how good Thai food tastes. I travel to Mannheim once or twice a year for work and will definitely come back.

Super friendly, attentive staff, well deserved 5 stars. Food very tasty😋 The ambience was very tasteful, and even though the restaurant was very busy and we hadn't made a reservation, a nice place was organized for us straight away and it was also super friendly and in the best gastronomic style. Other restaurants can only use this as a model. Again, big praise and 3 thumbs up👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 or ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Super tasty, friendly personnel

We couldn't get any main courses because it was already too late in the evening (kitchen closes at 10:30 p.m.), but you could still get the starters. The homemade iced tea (Thai iced tea) was very good! Very friendly and forthcoming service!

Delicious food kind personal highly recommended.

I ate Pad Thai with shrimp and was recommended duck meat. I don't like duck meat, but the sauce and dish were very delicious, and the pad thai was really delicious!! The shrimp are really strong!! Like Germany, the seasoning is a bit strong, but that makes me want to eat more and more. I liked it better because it was moist and soft like steamed rice. Oh, I also ate Tom Yum Goong and it was delicious. The atmosphere is nice and the servers are friendly... I want to go again next time I go to Mannheim.

We were passing through Mannheim and came across Mai Tai completely by chance. As soon as we walked in, this cute restaurant was totally inviting to us. A very nice atmosphere and a very nice staff, you immediately felt at home. The menu is very diverse, for every stomach and for every taste. The portions are really big. If we are back in Mannheim, we will visit Mai Tai again. 👍👍👍

Fantastic food, great service, friendly and attentive. Simply a great experience with delicious Thai delicacies

I was there for the first time today and I'm totally thrilled. The food (black menu) is incredibly good. Real authentic cuisine and incredibly delicious. Prices are reasonable, service is good. What more could you want? :)

I come from USA this is Thai restaurant I very much enjoy Thai food, and the Thai person working there very nice very nice and friendly , and of course the owner very nice 😊 thanks 😊

Very, very good and authentic food. The portions are very large and the staff is super friendly. Highly recommended 👍🏼

We were there today and ordered 6 different dishes to take away! Each of the dishes was delicious and we felt like we were eating in Thailand. There is even a special Bangkok map. The owner was very friendly and also very knowledgeable about Thai cuisine. We can only recommend it! Thanks :)

Great food, friendly service, nice personable owner. He asked if everything was ok and we were satisfied. We were 👍 Great menu, nice beer garden, despite the main street you can sit discreetly behind tall flower pots. Nicely separate. Good value for money Gladly again 👍

Eat good. Service chaotic but nice.

Change of ownership - Unfortunately no longer recommended. duck dry, the pasta dish inedible; plus an unprofessional to rude service. Goodbye Mai-Tai.

Crispy chicken or crispy duck, even lamb are very tasty. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is good. The atmosphere in the restaurant is also very cozy. You can bring friends or your partner to eat together and enjoy the fresh air outside. You can also bring your family or hold business meetings. This restaurant choice is definitely not a bad decision.

The food was excellent, at least everything that was tried. E.g. fish with sweet and sour sauce, shrimp with red curry and Pad Thai. The service was very courteous and friendly. Nice atmosphere outside, it also seemed very cozy inside. Thank you!!!

Great ambience, excellent Thai food, very friendly staff, can be highly recommended, thank you for the lovely lunch

Super tasty, authentic cuisine and very friendly staff. If you appreciate Thai cuisine, you have to go in here - or out! It's also good to sit outside!

Always delicious. Particularly inexpensive lunch dishes with soup fill you up. Possibility to sit outside in summer. Homemade Thai iced tea is highly recommended.

This restaurant is authentic Thai restaurant!!! I visit my friends here and i’ve tried this. Really recommend!!! Service 10/10

Amazing service and quality of food! Our party each tried a little of the others dish and our servers were attentive and helpful when we needed refills or had a question. Highly recommend for some delicious thai food!!

The food is delicious. You can request which spice level you want between “german level” or “thai level” as Thai, I can say the spice level is very “phed mak” The service is great. Staff always walk and come to check if everything ok with you. They won't left you waving hand too long and ignore. Thai restaurant, very Thai, authentic Thai, plays Mor Lam music. Swap Tilly Bird The sour curry is spicy and satisfying, like eating it at the mouth of the alley. The owner of the shop is very kind and gives away a shot of 40 degree white liquor. Forget about homesickness. Anyone who comes to Man Ham, I recommend this shop.

We received a really warm welcome and can highly recommend eating and drinking there! The coconut candies at the end were a little highlight 💝Thank you!

The food is very tasty 😋 and the staff is very friendly and nice. It's worth trying once a week 🙃

Everything friendly and very good!!!

Mai Tai offers a fantastic Thai dining experience. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is exceptional. Highly recommended for anyone seeking great Thai cuisine.

Very delicious food and very helpful staff. Best restaurant I’ve been to in the area.

The taste of the food is really good and authentic. We ordered different dishes. As starters we had the sprout salad with peanuts, som tam and tom kha gai. All of the dishes had a good balance between the different components and were prepared in a lovely way. Our main dishes were pad kra paow, laab moo and pad thai so to say classic thai dishes. The kra paow is really juicy with a lot of herbs and was one of my favorite dishes. Laab moo was promoted as one of the chefs favorites and it really is. Good mix of fresh herbs, vegetables and meat. I feel like at home because the interior is detailed and made with love.and the drink is really nice too. Love it

Great food, great atmosphere, great service! If you are wondering, you can speak Deustch, English, or Thai.

The food and drinks are all delicious and good service, very friendly staff and it's not that expensive.

Very tasty and super friendly staff! Gladly again.

Oops, it was so good that I forgot to take pictures of the food. Very tasty and very nice here.

Very good Thai cuisine in a pleasant, quiet atmosphere. The service is extremely friendly. I can fully recommend the restaurant.

Update May 31st: we have been regular customers at Mai-Tai for several years. Apparently there was a recent change of ownership. And that didn't hurt the restaurant. They say new brooms sweep better. And so it was. Thumbs up ! Please continue!

We had a very good meal here, the staff were very welcoming and helpful and the food was delicious.

The staff was really helpful. She suggested us the Pad Thai and the dish in the pictures. We got starters aswell which were amazing. The atmosphere is to die for… definitely recommend it to others aswell.

Very nice food. Nice environment and staffs are really helpful and good

Very, very tasty! Really generous portions. Unfortunately we are only visiting Mannheim, otherwise I would eat here regularly. Super friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Delicious non-alcoholic cocktails, great starters and soups, the green Thai curry is a poem. I also tried my colleagues' food. There was nothing that wasn't tasty. The lamb was super tender and the duck was very crispy and still juicy. Top.

Thank you, dear Mai Thai team, for the great evening with you! The food was super delicious! My highlight were the delicious starters and the papaya salad. I will gladly come again!

Great Thai restaurant, nice people, super delicious food!

I'd best start with 6 stars for Mai Tai Thai Restaurant 🙈 excellent food, a beautiful atmosphere and incredibly friendly service 🥹We not only got free rice, but also delicious coconut sweets and refreshing iced tea for everyone, like a loving gift 🥺🥺I'm happy I love it so much, many thanks to our great neighbors 😉

Thank you very much for the wonderful food and the super nice service! When I asked if they could offer me something vegan, I was helped straight away and I thought that was so great ♥️ The food was delicious and we would love to come back again!

I was here for the first time. The food was excellent, the service was very attentive. Gladly again!

I often eat at Mai Tai for business and pleasure. I've never been disappointed so far. The new management, which still relies on the same kitchen staff, is doing a great job! If you want to eat delicious Thai food and/or drink good cocktails in Mannheim, this is the right place!

Large selection and authentic cuisine.

Maitai is a charming restaurant serving authentic Thai food. There was a change of ownership and you can feel that a lot of love and time was invested in the menu, the ambience and the delicious food. I had a delicious duck dish. The duck was nice and juicy and crispy. The starters are highly recommended and the staff are extremely friendly and bring a wonderful Thai atmosphere to the restaurant. The ambience of the restaurant is very nice. I particularly liked the hidden back part of the restaurant. The price-performance ratio is great and I will definitely come back.

I haven't eaten in such a good atmosphere for a long time
