Thai Orchid Cuisine — Restaurant in Mount Clemens

I have been happily eating here for 6 years and I have not been disappointed once! I often order take out from here and get the Chicken Pad Thai (medium) and the Tofu Kow Pad (also medium)

The slightly sweet and tangy sauce, the perfect tender pieces of chicken, the cool crunch of the sprouts and that sweet sweet heat keeps me coming back for the pad thai. The fluffy and flavorful rice and the perfectly cooked egg ( in my opinion most places wayyy overcook the egg in fried rice) and the fried tofu gets this wonderful little crust that allows it to keep together for a great texture in the bite!

Sometimes I splurge and get the crispy rolls which I could honestly eat about 20 of.When dunked in the simple looking yet delicious dipping sauce hits all the flavor notes!

Friendly portions that a 6'4" 350 guy like myself appreciates

Whomever greets you, does so warmly and kindly. Both the woman and gentleman that have served me were incredibly welcoming and didn't make me feel like I was being rushed out because I was just getting carry-out. My modifications are ALWAYS done to my liking and I never have had to get anything re-made. ( I admit for an entirely grown adult I'm still weird about onions in some dishes lol) or just like some extra lemon and peanuts..... every time....exactly what I asked for!

The way people treat people says almost as much as your product and Thai Orchid is doing a stellar job with both!

I am writing this review while I devour my leftovers from yesterday and felt compelled to share just how much I...

The location is a little obscure when you try to find it, but when you do and you go inside, it is low key, warm and inviting.

The waitresses were respectful, but not overly attentive, which I like. The gave water and a small soup while you waited. The soup seemed like it could have been chicken pieces with lemon seasoned bone broth ( thick) or possibly duck ( havent had duck before).

I ordered deep fried chicken stuffed i believe it was wonton, came with a delicious sweet sauce and separate plate.

Also ordered the Walleye dinner which was medium spice and came with delicious sticky rice in a ceramic dish.

The appetizer was a nice hard crunchy outside and soft inside. The firmness of the shell lent well to spooning in some of the sweet sauce inside and it being absorb for a good flavour.

The Walleye was a surprise. It ran for $19.00 and the fillet was large, golden brown and crunchy. The sauce was soaked in good to make any interest flavour. The fish without the sauce was also very delicious and when refrigerated later, the Walleye maintain its crunchiness, which is rare for fried foods.

The spicy sauce was enough to clear the sinuses, but not enough to wipe tears out of your eyes and it contained carrots, bell peppers and a few other basic vegetables. The rice absorbed it nicely as well and can stretch into a separate meal if you are tight on money.

I really enjoyed finally eating here and I will definitely return...

I started going here when I first moved here since last year. The place is really nice and clean with great service. Unfortunately the food leaves a lot to be desired. Tried the pad ped, pad Thai, most of the appetizers, and a few others things friends ordered. Started trying other places because the ingredients aren't very fresh, and considering the price is about twice the normal amount at most places that's unacceptable.

There's tons of other places in the area that do Thai better, cheaper, and with larger portions. Won't name any cause then it'd seem like I am a competitor bashing them.

My thoughts on why this place has such good reviews. Well its definitely a mental thing, most people figure because its more expensive and really clean that it must be good. Just like buying an expensive bottle of wine over an average one, people like to think they are getting what they paid for and trying to justify their spending.

I am a huge Thai food and have ate at about 30 different ones on lots of diferent places. Even cook it...
