TL:DR Quick Thai place that I longed for in Lynchburg area. Tastes as good (maybe even better) as some other Thai restaurants in the area.
This place is good for quick Thai food. Located at Cornerstone, Get Thai Express seem to be more tailored towards take-out, but they have sitting areas to dine in if you prefer that. I have tried various things on the menu, and I found a few things that I really like. I recommend getting food that are cook to order. They still come out quickly and I prefer something cooked immediately than food sitting for a long time (although curry taste better when cooked for a long time since the curry would seep into the meat). I also enjoy their salad that comes with 2-3 entree meal. The chicken Thai curries were all good. They give you quite a lot of rice. I usually have left over. I have tried money pouch (an appetizer similar to wonton) and it was delicious. I would order them again when I crave something crunchy and savory. I also tried some of their drink menu. Their cream matcha Thai tea (can't remember the exact name) was my favorite. I have tried few others too, but I will stick to my matcha Thai. Great service. The store front people have quite a lot going on for them, but they did not diminish in their service. I like the modern look to...
Read moresuch an amazing experience and more than i was hoping for!
this looked like such a cute spot, and my mom and me love thai food so when she was in town we planned a trip here.
i expected good food, but nowhere near what we got. it was so flavorful, beautifully prepared and very memorable.
the thai tea was a perfect sweetness where the tea wasn’t bitter, but it wasn’t so sweet you only tasted the sugar. it was truly the best thai tea i’ve had, and i was very happy i ordered it.
prices are very reasonable for the quality of food given, and the servings were so large we had enough to take home for dinner.
our server Nicholas told us a lot about his columbian background, about the chef who prepared our food, and spent a lot of personal time getting to know us. he was so friendly and personable, lighthearted and wonderful to talk to.
it was just such a lighthearted dining experience, and i will absolutely be back.
as a chef it’s not easy to find good food, especially food that i won’t be able to go home and make again myself, but this blew it out of the water.
thank you to the owners, the chef and Nicholas for being...
Read moreI ordered through their app and picked it up. I got caramel milk, pork wontons, and the Gai Pad Med Ma Moung with tofu. I didn’t realize until I got in the car that my caramel milk didn’t have boba in it. It shows boba in the picture on their app, but I guess I have to specify I want boba in the notes? The pork wontons were pretty good and perfectly crispy on the outside, but there was a lack of filling on the inside. And finally, the Gai Pad. The flavor was good, but definitely not spicy. There was no spice level selection, so I’m assuming I need to add that to the notes as well. It was also disappointing that there wasn’t enough sauce and the cashews were missing, which is the main reason I ordered that dish lol. I love how they cut the tofu into triangles though! I feel this place has a lot of potential, so I will be ordering from here again. It’s also cheaper than the other 2 Thai...
