Love the curry! Perfect flavors perfectly done!! Favorite lunch treat!! Great service!

Food was excellent, very nice atmosphere/ decor. Service was friendly and on top of things.

This was a last-minute lunch decision while traveling, and it turned out to be a good one. Service was friendly, and the menu was typical of most Chinese/Asian restaurants. The honey glazed chicken did not disappoint. It did not have the usual thick and sticky sauce and I kept thinking about that glaze for the next hour. The decor seemed a bit dated but the food was good and the portions were ample.

Cute decor, good service, good food and great pricing. Family of four for about $50 and leftovers- What a pleasant surprise.

I'm going to have to apologize to Asian 1! I got my restaurants mixed up so please ignore my initial review, I will be moving my original to where it belongs and I'll have to stop by Asian 1 so I can give a real and full review!

GOOD, NOT GREAT. I reaaaallly wanted to love this place--I really did. But the price for what you get here is just not worth 5-star love. I ordered two dishes and a Thai Iced Tea and it was $40 (yikes!!!!). I ordered their Pad Thai with tofu and felt like it just lacked flavor. It looked amazing and was perfectly moist, but it simply lacked flavor. Luckily, I ordered their Mongolian Beef which, by the way, they marinate, bread the beef themselves, and cook, was pretty darn good. It was a little on the salty side so, mixed with the bland Pad Thai, it balanced out. Even their Thai Tea was a little on the weak-flavored and too-creamy side. The ambiance is pretty legit here and it's probably what kept it at a 4-star review rather than a 3-star one. It's perfect for a date, you could step up to the bar area for a super casual vibe, or you can come here with the fam. The wait staff are totally friendly here and while I didn't love my first experience with the food here, I would totally come here again with friends to try other dishes out. Overall, the food was meh. The ambiance and service was nice. I would come here again with mid standards and hope to be surprised. But if you want a better selection and better value for what you pay, go down to Taste of Thai by Wipa.
