December 2012 – Midland Menus

Authentic Thai Comfort in a Hidden Gem

Thai House is a long-time favorite among Midland locals looking for authentic Thai and Chinese flavors served in a no-fuss, welcoming atmosphere. Tucked inside a small strip center off Meta Drive, this family-run spot is easy to miss—but once you’ve been, it becomes one of those places you’ll keep coming back to. The decor is simple, but the food speaks volumes. Regulars rave about the consistency, spice levels, and friendly service, and many locals consider this the best Thai food in Midland.

A Deep Menu with Traditional Roots

The menu is extensive, with plenty to offer both Thai purists and fans of Chinese-American comfort food. Appetizers like Chicken Eggrolls, Bangkok Rolls, and Fried Thai Dumplings are perfect for sharing, while classic soups like Tom Yum and Tom Kha Kai bring bold, herbal flavors with just the right amount of kick. The entrees span a wide spectrum—from rich coconut curries like Panang and Massamun, to spicy basil-forward stir-fries like Kra Prao and Pad Kee Mao.

For noodle lovers, the Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, and Chow Mein are standout staples. The fried rice section features flavorful variations including the spicy Basil Fried Rice, available with your choice of protein. Every dish is cooked to order and can be tailored to your spice level, from mild to Thai hot.

Affordable, Generous, and Delicious

Most entrees range from $13.99 to $16.99 and come with a generous portion of steamed or fried rice. Combination plates are available for lunch or dinner and include soup or egg roll sides. The restaurant clearly marks its spicy dishes and offers extras like tofu, vegetables, or even chips and sauce for takeout. For dessert, Sweet Sticky Rice with Custard offers a perfect finish to a fiery meal.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking for a humble spot serving bold, comforting Thai and Chinese dishes with great portions and better flavor, Thai House hits the mark. It’s especially popular for weekday lunches and easy takeout dinners. Come for the curries, stay for the noodles, and don’t be surprised if you find yourself becoming a regular. Just remember—they’re closed on weekends, so plan your cravings accordingly.

Bob’s Better Burger feels like a step back in time—right down to the hand‑written daily specials taped by the register. Tucked on Thomason Drive next to Wilshire TV Service and Flor’s Kitchen, this unpretentious roadside stand has quietly become a Midland institution. Inside, the counter gleams under fluorescent lights, and the friendly staff know most orders by heart. It’s the kind of place where regulars pull up on a first‑name basis and newcomers feel instantly at ease, even when the lunch line snakes out the door.

The real draw, of course, is the food. Bob’s offers big, juicy patties in both “big” and “small” sizes, from classic hamburgers and cheeseburgers to indulgent double‑meat and double‑cheeseburger options. For heat seekers, the Jalapeños Burger (or its supersized counterpart) delivers a fiery kick, while the veggie burger proves that even non‑meat eaters don’t have to compromise. Beyond burgers, you’ll find an entire lineup of sandwiches—BLTs, ham & cheese combos, chicken‑fried steak sandwiches and more—plus hearty baskets of chicken strips, fish, or steak fingers all for around twelve bucks. And if you’re feeding a kiddo? The new mini burrito meal or a Spam sandwich at a nostalgic $6 keeps smiles wide without busting the budget.

Sides and extras transform a simple meal into a full spread: crispy fries, tots smothered in chili cheese, onion rings, or a basket of walking nachos piled high with lettuce, tomatoes, and gooey cheese. Feeling adventurous? Try the Hot Cheetos & Cheese plate or grab a cup of gravy to drizzle over fries. To round things out, Bob’s shakes—thick, creamy, and made to order—offer the perfect sweet finish to a throwback feast. With hours from 9 AM to 9 PM most days (closed Sundays) and a reputation for the lunch hour rush, it’s wise to call ahead. Trust the 210 Midlanders who’ve rated it a “true Midland treasure”—Bob’s Better Burger is where comfort food lives up to its name.
