Sticky Rice — Restaurant in Grand Island

This place was really good! I was skeptical because I’ve had some bad experiences with even good rated restaurants in smaller towns, but they delivered! They also have order online available, so we did that ahead of time & picked it up.

Atmosphere: very cute inside with quite a few plants and chill music!

I decided to try their popular Pad Thai with beef and it was probably the best I’ve had (even compared to many places around Phoenix, AZ). It was a little bit sweet and it had the perfect amount of lime, peanuts, and vegetables. I added 1/2 Tbsp spice and it was great. My mouth didn’t think it was spicy but my nose did. My boyfriend didn’t like the beef and compared it to the taste of liver, but I disagree!

He got the drunken noodles with chicken which he really liked minus having onion despite his requests to leave that out. The noodles were much softer than other drunken noodles we’ve had, but he liked that. It came a little spicy in his opinion without adding any spice.

Sticky rice cake: I was very curious about this as I’ve had sticky rice, but this sounded better. It was good, particularly the outsides where it was crispy and flavorful (buttery salty taste). The inside tasted a lot like plain sticky rice. I wouldn’t get it again just because it’s a thick patty of rice and only the outsides were particularly delicious. If they made balls or thinner patties that would be perfect!

Egg rolls: my boyfriend didn’t love these compared to other egg rolls because it had the paper of a spring roll. I thought it was okay, but I don’t usually like the taste of pork, so I only had a bite.

Mung bean sticky rice: This was really good! My boyfriend thought it could be sweeter, but I thought it was perfect. It was a large portion of rice again, so we didn’t eat much. It also tastes slightly gritty, perhaps this is because of the mung beans, but I would get it again as a dessert,...

I decided to try this place while in town for work, but I can’t recommend it. The food quality was not very good. What really pushed me to leave a review was that I paid an extra $2 for tofu in my green curry, and it was completely missing. I also ordered spring rolls with shrimp and peanut sauce, but they forgot the peanut sauce. To top it off, I specifically asked for utensils and didn’t receive any.

Overall, the food and service was very underwhelming. I usually trust Google reviews when trying new spots, but this was one of the rare times when I've been steered wrong. If you're visiting from out of town, I'd suggest skipping this place and trying somewhere...

This was arguably the worst Thai food I have ever eaten. I ordered the drunken noodles with beef and received mush. No discernable noodles at all. I dug through the goop and found about 7 tiny pieces of beef. I mean, smaller than a nickel! This dish was gross. Nauseating. I moved on to the sticky rice with anticipation only to be disappointed once again. Green mango and the rice was dry without that delicious sticky sauce that usually makes it delicious. All in all, the most disappointing experience I have had in Nebraska. If I could give 0 stars, I would. Forgive me, while I go get something to eat since my $20 dinner...
