This is my favorite new spot for Thai! This was my second visit, 3/30/13.
This place is cozy, it's quaint, it's quiet the atmosphere is friendly, the tables, place settings everything is clean, so far so good. I and a friend ordered Fresh Rolls, Crab Rangoon, Pad See Eew Mixed Veggies along with Garlic and Black Pepper Chicken. These have to be the best Crab Rangoon's on the planet, what ever the recipe there is nothing that I've had that even compares! You have the most stimulating mouth watering Pad See Eew, Fresh rolls, they should change the name to perfectly healthy rolls! The Garlic and Black Pepper Chicken was so good there is no way the chef isn't a graduate of some classic culinary institute. I'm an absolute lover of Thai so when ever I find a restaurant I've not been to I want to go, if you've never had Thai Cuisine or like to go Thai hopping as I do make this a destination. My favorite places are Bangkok Bistro in Cleveland Circle and Siam Lotus in Norwood, Thai Boo Cuisine so for has risen to the top of my list.
They've only been around for 2 or 3 months.
Today 8/8/13 I have a couple friends at work that's been wanting to visit Siam Lotus ever since had them try the Chonburi Wings, so today that's where we went for lunch. Shrimp in Blanket, the Chonburi Wings of course, an Eggplant dish, a Roasted Duck dish and I had the Green Bean dish. The dishes are delivered to our table, I mix my rice in with the meat, bean and sauce. I took the first bite and right away had a confirming thought but decided not to share it with my party.
The food was good all around, we sat ate, talked, at about the end of our meal one turns and says, "next time we're going back to Boo's, the food there is better." My response, "the very first byte I had I thought also the food there is better" I didn't share that with you because I wanted your uninfluenced opinion. Oh I forgot to share, I have taken these guys to Thai Boo once before.
By no means is this bashing Siam Lotus, until I found Boo's this was my go to spot and there are some things they do better, wings though I've not tried them at Boo's, Spicy Fried Rice, cucumber sauce, Chicken Satay and some dishes I like I've not found anywhere else but overall high...
Read moreIGNORE the poor reviews. I just called for lunch and forgot they were closed on Tuesday (good for them as traditionally in US restraunt employees are treated like trash and can never count on a day off).
I often order takeout. Out of a household of four, only one kid will semi reluctantly eat Thai. It's often take out for one. I used to frequent Thai Tanni down the road, but they have a minimum on card charges and I rarely carry cash.
The food is delicious. Vegetables are fresh. Service is exemplary. While I order takeout, the interior is beautiful. I would happily recommend for a date or said household of four if they'd eat🤣.
I am sticking up for MY THAI restraunt. They are great. I strongly suspect the negative reviews are from negative people that find fault in everything. If someone made a ridiculous order request to match their fad eating habits or genuine needs, I have full confidence they did as good or better than anyone could to fullfil them. They are wonderful people that kick @$$ at what they do, and they do with integrity. I often don't/didn't tip on takeout, but I damn-sure do every time I order there.
Keep up the great work Thai Boo. I'll see you this week as my craving for Thai will carry on till I have the opportunity to order...
Read moreThis is such fresh loving and yummie Thai food! This restaurant clearly cares deeply about what it is doing for their patrons and goes the extra mile with veggies that are not from a frozen bag, fresh rolls made to order, interesting and new takes on curry….I can’t wait to order from this restaurant again. I got them through DoorDash. And one of the dishes came accidentally with salmon and I am a vegetarian. I called up to let them know and they ended up making it again vegetarian and delivering it to my door without DoorDash. I was floored by their caring attitude and how much they obviously love what they do and respect their customers! I can’t wait to order again:) pad Thai was amazing, the mango sticky rice dessert was lovely, the fresh rolls fresh and yummie and the papaya salad was generous and delicious crunchy and flavor filled. Love love love this place!
Sadly this place had really not been doing well lately. Just ordered and they put spice in a noodle dish that classically has none. The papaya salad was so spicey couldn’t even eat and didn’t taste tangy and yummie like usual. Really...
