For the last year I've been going to different pad Thai places around in the San Joaquin valley. This pad thai was something special. It was really tasty. Now I'm no food expert but I am a professional fat ass. I feel bad I didn't take a picture because it looks so good and I ate it so quickly. No lie I almost licked the plate clean but there were people in the building. Food came out quickly. I also really like the three different chili selections they had on the table. Four including Sriracha. That dry chili flake powder is nothing to play with. It is not there to make friends. I will be back to try something else next time I visit Merced.

The chicken tasted like freezer burn. Prices went up drastically (for no appealing reason)

This is the most amazing place I’ve ever eaten at. It was my first time trying Thai food and it was the most pleasant and delicious experience, the server was absolutely kind. Ps. Try the mango sticky rice !!

Probably the best Tai food in Merced along with tai cuisine 2 , with fresh veggies and lots of color in their dishes. The ladies that work there are friendly. My favorites are Pad see ew, Pinapple fried rice, chicken satay, and fresh spring rolls. That’s enough food for 3-4 people and it came out to 60$

Would’ve given him a better review if it wasn’t for the hair I found in my drink and the multiple pieces of plastic I found in my pho when I told him about it, they offered to remake it, but at that point, I’d already lost my appetite so they offered a refund, but we’re trying to give me a full refund even though I gave them the food back. Definitely don’t go here unless you want to eat plastic and drink human hair.

This hole in the wall gem is now one of our favorite places to stop when we’re passing through, which is often. Food is very fresh and delicious. Our server greeted us with a smile and immediately attended to us. I highly recommend this place.

Thai Cuisine was a huge disappointment, and I can’t recommend it based on my experience.
Food: I tried the Green Curry and Panang Curry, and neither of them were to my liking. The Panang Curry was way too spicy, to the point where it overpowered any other flavors, while the Green Curry was excessively sweet. Neither dish was balanced, and I was disappointed by the lack of customization options—they didn’t even ask us about spice levels, which would have been helpful.
Hygiene: To make matters worse, there were cockroaches under our table. It was absolutely unacceptable and made for an uncomfortable dining experience. I’ve attached pictures to show the condition of the place—this is not something you should expect from any restaurant.
Service: The staff were not friendly, and the service was subpar. They weren’t attentive or accommodating, and it felt like we were an afterthought. When you’re paying for a meal, the least you can expect is decent service, but unfortunately, that was missing here.
Ambience: The ambience was laughable at best. It was far from the cozy, inviting atmosphere I was hoping for, and the overall vibe just didn’t make the meal enjoyable. It felt more like a poorly managed space than a restaurant where you’d want to sit and enjoy your food.
Overall, the food, hygiene, service, and ambience were all huge letdowns. With cockroaches in the dining area and lackluster food, I won’t be returning to Ramen Hajime anytime soon.
My recent visit to this Vietnamese restaurant left me utterly delighted. The ambiance was a delightful fusion of modern elegance and traditional charm, making it an ideal spot for a romantic dinner. The service was impeccable, with the waitstaff being both courteous and attentive. But the real star of the show was the food. The menu boasted a wide range of options, and each dish was a masterpiece. The banh mi sandwich was a taste explosion, and the crispy spring rolls were a perfect start to our meal. This restaurant is a true gem that deserves all the accolades.

Came in with my 3 young children. Was sat right next to the bar that was extremely loud. We placed our order and it was read back to us. We could barely hear due to the lively bar. They brought my husband the wrong dish. When made aware the server snobbish responded that she read us back our order and went into the back. About 5 minutes later she informed us that they would remake it but it was our fault that because she read back the order.
Our appetizers came significantly after our meal including my husband's remade meal. We were brought out 2 spoons for a total of 3 phos. Waters never refilled.
We get the check and there are 2 extra meals and an extra beverage on our tab. We were also charged one item as a pad thai instead of a thai fried rice. When I notified the person checking out my order there was snark comments from the horrendous server including "those are both the same price". As a regular customer paying a tab exceeding $100 each time, I was offered absolutley nothing to rectify the issue. Sadly, that the quality of service has deteriorated so significantly. We will not be returning.
