Original Thai
Original Thai is a hole in the wall favorite for many people in Rexburg. The little restaurant is sandwiched between a stairwell and the Romance Theater on Main Street.

They are used to making meals-to-go and they execute orders quickly and accurately. You can pick up your lunch or dinner meal and enjoy it from your own home. If you are in the mood for a filling meal packed with flavor, order from Original Thai.
