Customer Reviews
NEGATIVE 1 - Take a picture of it too Absolutely the WORST Thai food experience EVER!!! I ordered Pad See Ew with chicken, mild spice. It is typically has a rich brown sauce, however this was light beige, cold, and no spice, There was barely any chicken, and the chicken that was on had fatty skin hanging off of it. Since this was a carry out order, I called the restaurant to let them know, and they argued with me. They were unwilling to do anything about it, did not offer to re-make or credit me, and hung up on me. I will never order or dine there again. Shocked they are even still in business.
Food was great! Could have had a little more spice, but overall very flavorful! The green color of my food made me nervous at first, but it was delicious!
This is the first time my family has ordered from here. I love peanut pad thai and always got it from Novi area. We WILL absolutely order from here again. We ordered medium spice on all our food and my family, that has a decent spice tolerance, thought it was SPICY. 🤣 I thankfully told my husband to start with medium. We did two build your owns, a thai pad curry noodle, and fried rice. Great portions, excellent taste, will eat again!
The place is a bit run down but the food makes up for the lack of decorum. The seating was dated but functional. Our waiter was good at getting our food out but the interaction was minimal. Not unpleasant but just very business wise. The food was good and was enough to make you full, so I don’t know how much more you could ask. I asked for no green pepper with my chicken and peanut curry dish and they graciously added green beans to the plate. The flavor was good and the chicken was tender and plentiful. I ordered the pork spring roll and kind of regretted not getting the vegetable spring roll. I am not sure I would go back but it’s worth a try if you’re craving some Thai while in the area.
If I could put zero stars I would. We have purchased takeout for years despite the building being rundown and frankly disgusting. Today we got takeout, ordered our normal - Chicken Gang Gai (3 different spice levels), Pineapple fried rice, and Pad Thai. When we got home and opened the first container immediately my daughter said something doesn’t smell right. I agreed, I smelled like soap or chemical cleaner. I said, maybe it is just the plastic that we smell let’s take a bite. We tried two different spice levels of the Gang Gai and both tasted like the chicken was soaked in some kind of cleaner or soap. I called to tell them about it they said, no are wrong. We don’t cleaner or soap on their pans with soap. And everything is fresh. I asked if I could bring it back to show and get somethin
