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