Pete’s Thai on 5th

Food and service was ok. We ordered pad Thai and #57 (can’t remember the name). Both plates looked similar waiter mixed the orders and gave my husband the Pad Thai. The shrimp was overcooked. Husband said #57 was ok. Not sure if we will return.

Even though they were very busy on a First Friday, and they seemed to be understaffed, I’m still glad that we went there. The service was good (she was so apologetic for the wait) and the food was excellent. The location was decorated nicely and housed in a neat building. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for some delicious Thai food.

Everything about this place was wonderful. The food. The atmosphere. The experience. I ordered the Traditional Pad Thai, the spring rolls, and the orange chicken appetizer. The orange chicken was incredibly tasty and unique. I’ve never had anything like it. Rub the lettuce in the sauce then eat it with the chicken. It’s dynamite! Less “orange” than I expected, but it has great flavor. The spring rolls and the pad Thai were also great. It’s the freshest Thai food I’ve ever had. On the atmosphere photo - I was here Thanksgiving week, so I’m guessing customer traffic was down.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pete’s Thai on 5th is hands down the best food in Siouxland. Everything I ordered was absolutely incredible. The Traditional Pad Thai was perfectly balanced and full of flavor, the crispy fried tofu spring rolls were light, crunchy, and delicious, and the sweet potatoes fried in coconut flour were unreal—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and so flavorful. As someone with a gluten sensitivity, I was beyond impressed. The options for what I could eat felt endless, and I never once felt limited or worried. It’s rare to find a place that is this accommodating and delivers food at such a high level. If you’re looking for amazing Thai food, incredible flavor, and a place that truly cares about dietary needs, Pete’s Thai on 5th is a must. I can’t wait to go back!

Its ok. I tried the sweet and sour. That is definitely a no go. Nothing sweet or sour about the dish, but I ate it anyway because I was on my lunch break. The servers seemed very confused on if they were bringing the right dishes to the correct people. Our second server had to double check with the person who took our order. Seemed like no one was certain about what was going on. I will come back, maybe in the spring to try again. Could have been the restaurant dealing with new people???
