I didn't like the taste of the Drunken Noodles... Too spicy I only asked for a little spicy.... Made my stomach turn all day and all night....Geez Thanks for not following my instructions, and another other order which was the Pad Thai was the WORST the NOODLES, hard TO SWALLOW and taste like PLASTIC...And what pisses me OFF too.... What kind of PROMOTION IS THAT, the WORST PROMOTION I ever heard. 5% of entire order WHILE YOU USE CASH.... You just want cash in YOUR REGISTER.

It’s not delicious, it’s really not delicious. When I came, I ordered a soup. I felt that the soup was the same as the one from the previous night. I ordered a beef salad. The vegetables were too sour, and the beef was too tough and the fried noodles were too salty. The pineapple in the pineapple rice looks like canned food and I want to say it has ketchup added? All in all, it’s not delicious. Although the pineapple rice and fried noodles look good, they don’t taste that good. Also, the decoration is not Thai-style at all, and the dishes are not authentic. Not to mention the appearance, it’s not delicious. A shock to everyone

Disappointed! Ordered shrimp rolls and shrimp fried rice to go. Got back home and they have me some kind of chow fun, with meat. Called to advise them of the error, they asked if I wanted to come back. Told them I would - not really very happy that I had to drive back. Halfway there, I got a call from the guy at the counter telling me I needed to bring the wrong food so he can show his manager. I did have the food with me, figured they would want to see it. Walked in with my receipt, guy took the wrong food and went to the kitchen. A woman came out with my fried rice and basically said, "here you go". I asked if I would be getting a discount and she said, " want a Thai ice tea?" Guess they assumed everyone drinks it. I said no thank you and decided to just walk away, not worth the aggravation. Not going back.

Got the combo fried rice. I had one shrimp. Very disappointing. The fried rice was missing the the Thai spice. I have eaten enough rice to notice. Not very authentic. I do not recommend

This place hits home for me as my family have been coming here for years! To be honest, sometimes it's a hit or miss. But we still keep coming back for those hits because it tastes so good when it does. FOOD/SERVICE:Our go-to is always the BBQ chicken dinner, Beef Sa-Te dinner, and Tom Yum soup. The BBQ chicken dinner is our favorite with their one sweet-and-sour type of sauce. Everything always comes in big portions and decently priced. The beef sa-te is my personal favorite with the included cucumber vinegar sauce. Their peanut sauce is just okay to me but my brother loves it. The Tom yum seafood can be not spicy not unless you specify it. Service is good, although they've changed a lot of servers throughout the years (no consistent servers). ENVIRONMENT: It's always a good space inside, they have booths and tables. We have never waited more than 5 mins here. It's clean inside with a fish tank in the middle.

Good food. Nice atmosphere. Servers are also very attentive! You will like it here. The S8 is my go-to and just found out there is a chicken version which is also good.

The food like always was good. But went they give us the soup they didn't give us plates and spoons so we ask for it y the guy we asked just ignore us and walk away. So they tucked long to someone bring them

Is this ketchup in the fried rice????This place serves “thai” food for westerners.And it’s low key mid even for thai food that’s inauthentic (I won’t call it bad, cuz some ppl might prefer it this way, but… well…).Chicken satay is dry Altho flavor is ok (4/10)Angel wings are like 2/10. Batter doesn’t work with the chicken, chicken is SUPER dry and the stuffing is too basic to be good. Super disappointed.What’s most telling is the pad see ew. It’s bland, under cooked (except for the meat - over cooked and tastes like old leather), and gross. If you’re a Thai restaurant, you gotta have a decent pad see ew - that’s like the easiest thing out there. (1/100)And the shrimp fried rice… I guess if you stick 2 pieces of shrimp on anything it makes it a shrimp dish. Doesn’t make it good tho.Sigh. I’ll try it one more time. But for now… Just go to tantawan.
