This is probably the best experience with Thai food I have had in a long time. We usually frequent Mangetsu in Melbourne, however, we did not wish to travel far, or have a long wait for delivery (Singtong is only 5 miles away in comparison). We had ordered originally via Bite Squad, where they randomly cancel our order, normally we would not give this a second thought, and would just order elsewhere. We decided to call in to see if there was any issue with our order, not only was there no issue, the gentleman who answered the phone (I'm sorry, I didn't get your name, I think he may've been the owner?), volunteered to deliver it to our house. Delivery didn't take long, and once the food got here it was fantastic.
I had ordered teriyaki salmon, and the fish was juicy, and delicious, especially with the accompanying sauces. My girlfriend ordered the pad thai, which the portion size was fantastic, and was tasty to boot. We had no complaints either from anyone in the house, and the cookies and cream ice cream was delicious.
The good: Portion Size Food is tasty Location (for us) Friendly, and helpful service
The bad: Our order was cancelled (not their fault, just going to order directly from here from now on)
With service like this, and good food to boot, we will certainly be repeat customers, and will recommend this...
Read moreRecently had company and ordered several dishes. Two people ordered the PAD THAI CHICKEN. Both were appreciative they could select the level of heat they wanted on a scale of 1-5. One liked it spicy while the other didn't want any heat. Both described their dishes as having a nutty, salty, slightly sweet taste. Restaurant attended to details and honored a request for no bean sprouts.
Another ordered WONTON SOUP with tofu. She noted the flavors of sesame, garlic, scallions, acidity (vinegar ?) and soy. Thankfully it was not too salty. She thought it was very savory.
DRUNKEN NOODLES had perfectly cooked wide noodles that fills your mouth and stomach with soft textured comfort. Our friend would have liked to see more Thai basil in the dish though.
SEAWEED SALAD was fresh and tasty. Would have liked to have had more salad and less shredded carrots.
GYOZA FRIED DUMPLINGS were soft and juicy inside with a wonderfully crispy outside that had some kind of a grilled flavor. The dipping sauce covered the dumplings with a umami flavor that kept me reaching for another one. I could eat just these and be satisfied!
This was our first time to visit this mom and pop restaurant and will...
Read moreLet me just say that I hardly ever give bad reviews. If the food is bad, I'll just let it go and move on, never to return. But I can't let this experience go without comment. This Thai restaurant is "One and Done!" with us. We based our order (over $50) on the pictures shown on their website. My husband ordered the teriyaki steak meal. The steak was not sliced as shown and was difficult for us to even cut and was so tough it was like eating leather. The salad, unlike the pretty picture, was only some spinach leaves and grated carrots. There was no cucumber or tomato. The ginger dressing was so "hot" you could hardly eat it. My order of Pad Thai was generous enough, but had absolutely no flavor and just a tiny bit of ground peanuts. Had we read the reviews before ordering, we would have gone elsewhere. After reading them, we threw out the soup, not being sure what was in it. We know good Thai, and sorry, but this is not it. Gave it one star because the sushi chef was very polite. However, he was the only attendant in the restaurant, which is very odd. This place has a great opportunity to be the best in the area, but unless their food quality changes it...
