Don’t waste your money on this 1-star fast food-quality place with sit-down restaurant prices.
The worst: The Crab Rangoon was a grainy tasteless mess, and did not taste like crab or cheese. Worst I’ve ever had. The crispy chicken rolls were also grainy and tasted nothing like chicken. Worse yet, they tasted like they had been fried and re-fried in vegetable oil all day, and then re-heated. Disgusting. The beef was rubbery. Overall, it’s clear they don’t use fresh ingredients.
The bad: The Tom Kha soup was a greasy and tomato-based watery broth, which should have had a coconut milk broth. How do you make Tom Kha soup greasy? They figured out how.
The unique but creepy: The music they played all-too-loudly on the overhead speakers was mostly 1980s songs, but with a creepy, breathy lady lounge singer lilting songs like “Forever Young” and “Lady in Red”. Reminded me of the movie “Lost in Translation,” with the creepy, maudlin American lounge singer lady whispering kitschy well-known tunes before bedding Bill Murray. The whole vibe was 100% “ick”, but if you like to cringe, it’s worth a visit just for the novelty and a laugh.
The okay: The Massaman Curry flavor was not bad, with a coconut milk texture that was well-seasoned to be sweet and spicy. If not for the rubbery beef, this would have been a decent dish. The beef tasted synthetic, or like it was on the verge of going bad.
The good: Their chicken in the Tom Kha soup actually tastes like chicken, and the mango smoothie was more like a slushie but still decent. The mangos were not quite ripe enough and the sticky rice was watery, but compared to everything else these were at least tasting like actual food.
The excellent: their service is excellent.
Unfortunately, while these are truly nice people, their food is sub-par and there are plenty of decent Thai restaurants nearby with better and fresher food for the same price with music that won’t...
Read moreI have ordered this dish (Pad te mow) many times from a couple of different restaurants in the city and this time the dish was FULL of lettuce……I mean a hand full of cold lettuce and when I called them to let them know that I was not satisfied with my food….They told me that they will not do ANYTHING to accommodate me. At the end of the day, my husband and I spent $30 on both dishes……I usually have enough food to take to lunch the next day but I barely got enough food for dinner. Basically, they did not care if I was satisfied or not….. they told me that they measured out 9 ounces of pasta to put in my dish, which I know for sure that was not 9 ounces of pasta. It was more like 9 ounces of COLD lettuce. It’s really disheartening that customer service does not exist in this place. It’s one thing to be pleasant, which the cashier was, but it’s another thing to take care of your LOYAL customers. When she asked the chef, what can they do since I was not satisfied ….. they said they were not willing to do ANYTHING AT ALL. The last thing I wanted to do was to come here and give a bad review for a small business like this, but it was REALLY disappointing to say the least, However, if you’re looking for a GREAT Asian/Thai restaurant to go to, you can go to Banana Leaf on Preston Road in Dallas instead….. the customer service is great and the food is even...
Read moreI recently had the opportunity to dine at Simply Thai bistro, and I must say, it was an excellent experience.
The restaurant is beautifully decorated, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure everything was to our liking throughout the entire meal.
The menu offered a wide variety of Thai dishes, with options for all dietary preferences. We started with the Tom Yum soup, which had just the right amount of spice and a delicious blend of flavors. For our main course, we chose the Pad Thai and Green Curry. Both dishes were incredibly flavorful and prepared with fresh ingredients. The portion sizes were generous, ensuring that we left completely satisfied.
One thing that really stood out to me was the presentation of the dishes. Each plate was beautifully arranged with vibrant colors and garnishes, making the food not only tasty but visually appealing as well.
The prices at Simply Thai bistro were also very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. It is definitely a place that offers great value for your money.
Overall, I highly recommend Simply Thai bistro to anyone who is looking for delicious Thai cuisine in a cozy and welcoming environment. The food, service, and ambiance all exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be returning for another...
