More stars. Tani's deserves more than 5 stars. My family and I have been coming here since they opened. We used to live two miles down the street and would order the same thing every Friday: 1 entire plate of cocky bob for each of the older kids, Pad thai for mom, a steamed fish for Dad, and little sister would order the chicken satay when they had that, back in the day. Us three kids would froth at the mouth for a chance to go Tani's and successfully convinced our parents so many times that the woman who always took care of us had our orders memorized by heart. As we got older, our family grew up and apart but Tani's always remained. Any celebration was had here. Graduation, birthdays, anniversaries. It is the glue. The owner always took care of us and was so kind and so gentle. Her face lights up every time she sees us walk in. and mine, too. When I go to pick up orders, I look for her to say hi.
I order from here as much as I can, which is only once every other month. But when I go, I am always so grateful and so happy to see them again. A lot has changed but Tani's is a constant. Very Good Food and a must-have if you are in the neighborhood. My family and I no longer live in Pinecrest but WE WILL GO TO TANI'S when we can gather. I recommend having the shrimps in a blanket, the chicken Pad Thai, and the cocky bob. Shrimp in a blanket are so crunchy, tasty, and satisfying. The sauce is perfect pairing.
Pad Thai from here is the standard I compare all of the other Pad Thais I eat. It is the best Pad Thai in Miami.
But the cocky bob. Ive never had another chicken dish like it. It's sauce is so tasty and the way they cook their chicken is incredible! It's addicting, especially with their perfectly steamed rice. Once you have it, you will be ordering it every time you go for the next 25 years- I can vouch for that. TLDR: Go here and ORDER THE COCKY BOB. This place is incredible and you can bet they'll...
Read moreHello, so after being a customer of this establishment for many years I went last night with some friends expecting to have a fabulous meal as I always used to have. As it turns out it seems to be that there are new owners. They were clearly understaffed and the staff they did have were not only unattentive but when I asked for more water, I was literally turned away from and walked away from right in the middle of me asking. Extremely rude and unacceptable. The food was not as good the service was absolutely horrible. You never wait until the end of the meal to ask somebody whether they need something or how everything is. For all of you people out there who don't know, a wait staff should come back to your table anywhere between 2 to 3 minutes after you start your meal and make sure that you don't need anything and ask you how everything is. I was extremely disappointed and probably will not go back to...
Read moreVery disappointed with this place. WASTE of TIME & MONEY!!! Lack of quality of service is evident from the long time they took to ask for water or any beverages after entering. We waited for 20 minutes just for the waiter to arrive and ask for our order. It wasn’t even busy at that time. Also even after the order was taken by the waitress she didn’t gave us what we had actually ordered. The excuse which she gave was totally lame that she thought we had ordered the fish which she had PRESUMED!! Man, how can you be so careless with your customers?? It was her duty to cross check what we had ordered n what she had noted down was correct. But she didn’t do that!! That’s why in the bill when we saw it improper we called her n asked why she gave us the wrong fish? N all she kept on giving lame excuses. Very BAD ATTITUDE and SERVICE! Pricing of menu NOT WORTH...
