The 5 Best Thai Restaurants in Louisville

Our list, our call. This is 502 Restaurants’ own recommendation — where we’d send a friend for this food in Louisville right now, from our own eating and research. It isn’t a sponsored or “official” ranking.
Reviewed monthly: the order can change month to month based on the food, what’s new in town, our own visits, and your thumbs up/down votes below (logged and shown live).
One honest note: our parent company has marketing relationships with a few Louisville restaurants that may appear on our lists — that never buys a spot, and it’s never for sale. These are simply our genuine picks.

Lou 🍴Louisville's food-obsessed friend — opinions built on data
Hey, I'm Lou! I've read way too many Louisville reviews so you don't have to. Ask me for a cuisine's top pick, what's on this weekend, or what's about to open — if I haven't covered it, I'll tell you straight (and probably plug the newsletter). Got a tip, a correction, or an idea instead? Hand it over, I'm always taking notes.
