This is an excellent bar and restaurant with amazing Thai food. We stopped in for a drink at Monkey Bar and quickly realized that the Thai kitchen was still open and serving out some delicious fried rice dishes to other patrons, even though we were full, we couldn’t resist the smell, so we ordered a fried rice to share. The drinks were pretty strong, and expensive, as others have mentioned, but this is typical for P-town. We were blown away by the flavors in the fried rice and decided to come back to Johnny Thai for dinner the very next day.. the food we were blown away by! We had a feast of deliciousness, the soups, fried rice, and panaang curry were all incredible. We had the bourbon bread pudding for dessert and it was just okay, you could tell it had been microwaved. The quality of the food and flavor profiles are definitely worth the visit. My one criticism is the service staff have not been trained with a high level of service. It is no fault of their own, but had the service been subperb, it would feel like a luxury experience. if the service matched the food quality, the complaint that many others have posted in the reviews regarding high prices, wouldn’t...
Read moreI ordered a take out from them , they put the food that had oily sauce in a paper container without letting me know, it soaked through the container into my bag and stained all my personal items and clothing , the sauce ran on my leg down to my sneakers and burned me as soon as I took out the food from my bag . when I got home, all of the food fell through the soaked paper container onto my floor. When I called to complain , they told me they were gonna have the manager call me back on the same day , but they never did . To the owner who replied I DID NOT call the person an idiot , I said “it’s the stupidest idea to put liquidish food in a paper container.” Would you put a soup in a paper container???So don’t twist my words here. Not just paper container, you put everything in a paper bag too , it doesn’t matter if I put in my bag or not ,, It would NOT change the result—all the food fell through the paper bag eventually onto my floor because the paper bag and the container were all soaked through and broke, It all went to waste, yes of course I tried to dispute my charge. This justification of yours is a total fail, you need to work on your...
Read moreThe general tso's was crispy, but it had little flavor other than "sweet". The pad Thai was extremely egg heavy, the pad see ew was supposed to come with thick rice noodles and vegetables, but there were only a few broccoli spears amidst the plate of salty yet cloyingly sweet fettuccini. The Thai basil with chicken was ok but very salty. Interesting take to blend the basil into the sauce rather than add it straight to the dish. Our soup appetizers were ok. We kept hearing the characteristic "beep beep beep" of a microwave and we joked they were heating our soup up, then moments later the bowls of warm (not hot) soup came out. Even if they were microwaved they were tasty. The martinis were boosted to be the biggest around, but when they arrived they were normal sized. The flavors were unique and fun, but the only thing that was large about them was the price. Definitely have sticker shock and honestly buyer's remorse. Also...$6 for a glass of diet Pepsi? Still a little stunned by that. The service was good, no complaints there. I don't remember the price of a side of rice but the small ½cup of rice that...
