After reading these reviews I'm quite surprised at my experience. We sat down and the waitress finally came over and set water down and turned to walk away. I stopped her and asked for a iced tea and she asked what kind. I am hard of hearing and she had a very thick accent so I asked her to please repeat. She brought the tea over and I asked for a regular menu and not just lunch specials. I came here craving chicken satay but saw that they no longer served this. I looked at the menu for a while and she came back and asked what I wanted. I had some questions about the menu and she seemed extremely irritated by my questions and answered with a complete attitude. Totally condescending. I placed my order and she walked away. I was so taken by surprise that I asked my friend , " is it me or is she rude ?" My friend said : " she is extremely rude and I think we should leave while we are ahead." I felt like a complete burden to her lunch rush ( which wasn't that many people ) Anyway, I immediately walked up to the register and very kindly said I would like to cancel my order, but pay for the tea. She rang up the tea, didn't seem to care at all as to why we were leaving. I handed her my card and when she handed it back I put my hand out to get it and she just tossed it on the counter. I kindly said thank you and she didn't say a word back. As you can see from my other reviews this is not at all my normal experience with restaurants. I have been here several times in the past for pickup and always had great, friendly service. I am super disappointed and will not be back. I drove down the street to Canton palace and had a wonderful lunch with great service. P.S. it's also not attractive to have a cleaning bucket on the middle table with a bunch of cleaning...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreImmediately met at the door by a friendly gentleman, seated promptly. Menus are quality, heavy duty, pictures on the back sides of the pages as well. Ordered a Thai coffee, fried tofu, spicy bamboo chicken, seseme chicken.
Started off with the coffee. Without even mixing in the condensed milk, it's very sweet, very rich, VERY delicious. It's very mild, not bitter what so ever.
The fried tofu came out (about 10pc) and it was perfect! Crispy and golden on the outside, but not too firm or mushy on the inside. Paired with the sweet and sour sauce it was a delicious way to start a meal for sure!
The seseme chicken was light and crunchy, not soggy and over fried like most. The flavor isn't the strongest, but still a great contender. The cabbage and broccoli served underneath was cooked well, not too mushy.
The spicy bamboo chicken is a tongue tickler! 4/10 spice, so don't fear it just because it has two spice stars. The sauce is rich and reminds me of some sort of teriyaki curry sauce. It's sweet, yet zingy, and not overly curry-ie. The vegetables in this are an excellent pair for the sauce!
Lastly, I'd like to mention, oddly enough, the cleanliness of the restroom. Usually I'm kind of weary of the restroom at most places, but this was very clean and smelled pleasant. Good job to the staff for having a bathroom clean enough to mention in a review! Lol
Overall, I'll most definitely be back! This place is great and offers a very relaxing atmosphere, and a great view...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreTLDR: Worst Thai food I have ever eaten.
The full story:
My mom and I were out and about and decided to try this place. We both love Thai food and the other reviews for this place were promising.
The promise was not kept.
We walked in and didnāt know if we were supposed to seat ourselves or wait. The man who turned out to be our server called to us to take a seat. He brought us menus and waters (no straws) and left. When he came back, he was quite abrupt in taking our order. We both ordered the Pad Thai but he asked us for the kind of rice we wanted- Iāve never had rice with pad Thai but we chose some anyway. I ordered the salad which was drenched in ranch dressing. I like ranch dressing but not that much. My mom ordered the coconut soup and it was so thin it was pretty much water.
The pad Thai itself was so bland. I had maybe one tiny green onion slice buried under the tasteless noodles and the chicken was not seasoned or flavored at all. There were some crumbles that may have been peanuts, but Iām not sure what happened to them when I mixed them in. I couldnāt even finish the meal. Iāve had better at the Chinese food place in the mall.
The spring roll (which they call egg rolls) were okay. Probably the only thing that had any taste to them at all.
I will never come back. Warn your friends. What do I recommend? Donāt eat here unless youāre looking for food completely lacking in not only flavor, but any...
