Garden Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Redlands

My experience was not great here, didn’t even get to try the food, me and my family just recently moved to Redlands and we wanted to try a local Thai spot we have had a pleasant experi at the Thai House, so we decided to give this small spot a try, well we walked in and the place was empty no other customers we greeted the employees and helped ourselves to the menus that were on top of the counter went to sit down and waited about 25 minutes the staff could see that we were still there waiting to be acknowledged after a few more minutes I told my husband let’s go somewhere else my kids were also hungry, I just thought it was rude I would understand if the place was busy but there was no one but us in there they just ignored us and obviously I won’t be giving my money to a place who did not bother while we waited...

Maybe I hit them on an uncharacteristically bad night, but for my first time at our local Thai restaurant, this was not good. The small dining area was empty. I ordered a veggie plate with chicken since the first veggie listed was asparagus. The food tasted like “chain smoker”. I had someone else try it and they independently described it the same way. I don’t know how else to describe it but it was not tasty. And there was no asparagus, the chicken was very dry and flavorless, and other than getting the steamed rice right, I’ve got nothing positive to report on this place. Too bad since it’s close to us and we enjoy other hole in the wall Thai...

Under new ownership, portions are smaller, prices are higher, and they close randomly so they're not reliable. The past 3 out of 4 times I tried to go they weren't open. One time it the phone goes straight to voice mail, another time it rings a couple of times and someone hangs up, and the other there was a sign on the door that said "hood broken" but when I called the next day the lady just said, "oh yeah we just needed a break, working to long!" Pretty sad, we had a good Thai place on this side of Redlands for a little while but this new ownership isn't...
