i guess i have to change my five star review. this was my favorite restaurant but how do you forget the main ingredient in an entree? i brought our food home like i always do and started to eat and i am like where is the tofu? all i got was a plate of spicy vegetables. after spending seventy dollars on a nice dinner i could barely eat mine because i was so looking forward to my favorite tofu and vegetables entree i always get, a bunch of vegetables with sauce just didn't do it for me. i couldn't go back and complain because i had to leave for work. i kept thinking about how disappointed i was i didn't get to have a nice dinner and the more i thought about i realized i can't ever go back there again now. i am not rich, pad thai cafe was a special treat once in awhile but i don't see how i can risk going there again after losing essentially seventy dollars because they can't get the most basic part of a dish right. o well, there are a lot of other thai restaurants around, im sure i can find one that i just as good. hopefully they won't let me down (and cost me so much money for nothing) the way pad thai cafe did.
disregard my previous review. (one of my favorite restaurants around. excellent vegetarian options, everything they make with tofu is incredible. the vegetables are fresh and crisp and delicious and the sauce coats them in the perfect amount of flavor. some of my favorite appetizers, i always have to get egg rolls and fried tofu i can't ever pick one. the fried rice is so good with all the little pieces of tofu i always have to order that as well even though i have already ordered too much. if there is anything i can complain about it is that they have too many delicious choices. thank you pad thai cafe. see you again soon...

Read moreSuper nice thai place! The teenager who greeted me when i came in was extremely sweet and welcoming in! I picked up a mobile order and there was a great atmosphere. We got the pad thai (with chicken) which i feel the only reason i wouldn’t give a full 5 stars was because the chicken was actually quite hard and the first bite i took i actually had to spit out because my chicken was basically rock solid which was weird? not sure if it was just left out for too long because all of the chicken was very chewy. Rest of the pad thai was very good, very nice portion!! Spice level 3 definitely has a kick so if you want something spicy but not overwhelming i would stick with that level :) also had the crab wontons 10/10 and the thai pink milk tea which was nice and sweet!
Update: Came back for a second time. ordered online and was told it would be a 25-35 minute wait. I show up after 25 minutes and get told it’ll be another 25 minute wait.
I tried the chicken pad thai again, the chicken just has this almost dry & left out texture? i understand chicken breast can be dry sometimes but I couldn’t eat it. I also tried the veggie pad thai & the coconut shrimp and those...
