Thai Noodle City — Restaurant in Holly Hill

UPDATE: My boyfriend and I loved this Thai place for months. Today, we went and wanted to have a cheap lunch so, we came here. It’s always the same two people working and we normally get the same thing. Today they were really busy and it took a while for our food but I understand because they’re family owned. My boyfriend and I come here all the time and we always tip over 20%. The lady came out and smiled at me today and when we were finished eating she brought us 2 deserts. (I have food allergies & didn’t know if I could eat it) she just sat them down and smiled so we thought it was complementary. So she gave us our bill & there was $11 on it for the deserts that we didn’t order. We told her we didn’t order them and thought they were complementary and she just smiled and said sorry. We’ve literally been going there for months and we’ve always tipped & stacked the plates & cleaned the table. I’m just really disappointed that the least they couldn’t do is take off what we didn’t order on the bill. We will not be going here again.

Our normal Thai place was closed so we came here and they are soooooo cute!! It’s a tiny little place but, the decor is so adorable. The people are sooo nice. The food is amazing. Better than expected. And a huge portion both my boyfriend and I had leftovers to take home. The prices are as expected. I love the authenticity of this place. I loveeeeeee REAL Thai food. This place is so cute and adorable. And I think it deserves more attention because everything about...

It wouldn't be fair to give a proper review for a place where I spent less than five minutes to grab some lunch. Based on my very brief experience, however, I will do my best to inform.

The menu is small and so is the seating area. Both are far from deal-breakers, and since this restaurant focuses on one facet of a cuisine, it would work in its benefit.

I ordered chicken pad thai. In ordered it because A) I really wanted some pad thai, and B) I knew it would be their bread and butter and I would get in and get out relatively quickly. I was right. In under five minutes, I had my order in my hand. Impressive.

It was fragrant, filling and delicious. Crushed peanuts, soy sauce and a chili sauce came on the side along with a wedge of lime. A lot of care went into the dish. The staff was minimal. Literally a mom-and-pop. Very friendly and accommodating. The only complaints I have would be to have to go menus printed and maybe a table outside. I loves me some noodles, and I can't...

Thai Noodle City is my go-to for fast, delicious, convenient food when I'm on break at work. This family-run establishment has a decadent list of menu items from the sweet and tangy sticky rice with mango to the scrumptious calamari rings to my personal favorite, the Pad Thai! I typically order from the noodle section for the entree, from the spicy drunken noodle to the pad na ra or the pad baa mee. They whip up a spicy, oily, mildly sweet chili sauce, I believe it's called "Nam Prik", and it works with essentially any noodle dish. Personally, I recommend only adding half the tea spoon full, because it is very potent, and you don't need a lot to change the flavor. If you find you like it, maybe then consider adding more. This place isn't a 5☆ restaurant by any means, but you get more than the value in each dish. Great for an exotic, affordable night out. The atmosphere at this tiny little...
