Ting Tong Thai Cafe — Restaurant in Kent

Ting Tong Thai is the best Thai food restaurant I have ever had. Coupled with them being only 5 minutes from my house, I order takeout from them once a week. Food is incredible and all the staff are very friendly. Not one but 2 different friends recommended them to me and how I wish to recommend them to more people. Initially, I only ordered their Pad Thai. Always delicious, pretty good portion size. One of my friends told me about their Crispy Garlic Chicken and holy sh*t does this hit the spot. Savory, sweet, crispy chicken with crispy fried basil leaves. 10/10. Recently I've tried their Beef Noodle Soup which is amazing. Similar to pho but different and just as delicious. They also package their "dry" carry out orders (anything without liquid) in tin foil so it keeps the food hot for an extended...

My friend that lives in the area recommended this place a while ago, just didn't have the chance to order until today, I came around this city and decided to try.

I guess from the latest reviews this place declined alot and I can tell from the food that I ordered, tom yum is really lack of flavor, the only flavor that I taste from the soup really just cilantro, doesn't even have enough saltiness (this is coming from someone that complains alot that American food is too salty), you're not really thai restaurant if you can't make decent tom yum.

Their rice is way overcooked, they also forgot my crab wontons. I guess won't order again...

The service is friendly but inattentive our server saw us twice, once to take our order and once to bring our food and drink. She forgot one drink and it wasn't busy. She did have time to have her hair brushed by a friend at a nearby table.

We ordered an appetizer (fish cakes), and two entree's (chicken phad Thai) and something else I forget. They brought all the food out at once.

I guess that's ok because the fish cakes were bland, cold and super small and over priced at $8. Aside from our drinks, the phad Thai was the only thing good we ordered.

We won't come back to this place. The 4.7 rating on this place is...
