The food was amazing. The service was top notch. And for the quality of food the prices were very reasonable. We live in St. John's and keep striking out with sushi spots...although this is a bit of a drive it's worth it!

Great experience! This place is a gift to Orange Park with a pleasing ascetic and buzzing atmosphere. We ordered the sampler, pad Thai, beef satay, seaweed, fried rice, chicken satay with Whispering Angel Rosè - everything was delicious and all plates were empty. The price is reasonable for what you get - definitely worth a visit!

Here it is! In my opinion, the newest and nicest restaurant in Orange Park to date! Talk about great food! Beautiful atmosphere and ambience! High tech lighting and even a robot that delivers food to the front! The staff was courteous, professional, and attentive. Food was delivered timely. The place is beautiful and clean! I was beyond excited about my experience here! It is nice inside and out. Don't walk, run! We started with an appetizer dish that included several different items. For dinner we ordered the chicken fried rice and also garlic broccoli noodles with beef. Everything was soo fresh and soo delicious. Food came out hot and you could choose your spice level. Be sure to tell your wait staff how spicy you want your food. We didn't like any spice - and that's what we got. The restaurant is beautiful with the most spectacular dangling lights from the ceiling, The booths were very comfortable and private, the tables were nice and well placed. There was a beautiful bar that you could sit at all decked out in neon and with large TVs throughout the restaurant. You won't miss anything here! You'll have a lot of fun , and you'll enjoy your food! I do know that they have several of these throughout the city now, and I do understand their huge success! Go enjoy now! You won't regret it! I've included a few photos for you to check out!

First time going and it was worth the hype. Our server actually remembered my folks from the last time they went and the presentation of the food is amazing! We ordered the Spicy tuna roll, rainbow roll, fried green beans, pineapple rice and ice cream, all were delicious and EVERYTHING comes out temp hot in a good way! The little robot that delivers the main course was a cool touch, but over all it’s beautiful inside and the whole crew worked together flawlessly. You do have 2-3 servers, but if you look around they are all helping each other. We never ran out of anything and every time we added something else it came out so fast! GREAT first impression and you made my mom’s 74th birthday special without even knowing it! (We don’t do the singing and clapping thing lol) Will be back for more!
Love, love the sampler!! I would highly return to try the different sauces. It was slightly confusing with having several servers. I believe we went through 3. Very long menu, many different options to choose

I was so hyped to try this place because of all the good reviews. Not sure if I went on an off night or what because service was subpar. It felt like our server was always in a rush. The restaurant was not crowded while we were there so I can't use that as an excuse. After our drinks and food arrived, she never came back to ask if we needed anything or if we were satisfied with our dishes. The atmosphere was the best part of the visit to this establishment. It's very pretty inside. I'm willing to give them one more try.

I was pleasantly surprised and this immediately has been placed on my go to list of restaurants! Service was on point and basil lamb chops were to die for! A must try.
My wife and I wanted to celebrate our 41 anniversary dinner eating something a little different, wow we were both very impressed! We visited 3/17/24 at 12:pm from the moment we were seated our server was very attentive, we started with an appetizer; Thai chicken lettuce wrap, we both ordered the same plate, my fault, Thai fresh garlic w. Beef, hers #1 mine #3 w. Jasmine rice. I ordered the jaguar roll, dessert; White Chocolate Raspberry cheesecake, Thai tea, with tip $100.00 a lot more than we’ve paid in a long time, we’re usually pretty frugal! We splurge! We’re definitely going back, probably for lunch. Hopefully we’ll have an amazing experience again, I do apologize for the pictures we got caught up in the moment and started eating!

We had the pleasure of having a Saturday day date at Green Papaya off of Blanding Blvd. I must say we were pleasantly surprised. You see our go to is the location off of Beach but this one was just as nice! The decor is modern, sophisticated and the ambiance and atmosphere was so very sophisticated. As for the food, delicious doesn’t even cut it. We love their food but the presentation here was top notch!! Our go to tos the Pad Thai, five spice green beans, Thai special fried rice, Thai ginger/garlic, sushi for us sushi lovers and vegetable egg rolls. So good I forgot to take pictures. Sooooooo good!!! ?

I ordered take out because I wanted fried rice. I've tried other locations and was ecstatic when I saw a new location closer to my home was opening. I placed the order online. When I got to the restaurant my food was ready and handed over after payment. I've now ordered take out twice from this location and I have not been disappointed. Both times the food was hot, tasty. This place is the reason I'm a fan of thai rice. Also the curry to go is always more than enough for one person. I can stretch it to at least 3 meals or share generously with someone else. As far as the restaurants look, cleanliness it's on point. I mean it's so new I wouldn't expect anything less.

We are fans of the other Green Papaya location on Beach Blvd and didn't realize there was a new one on Blanding until I saw a billboard before the Buckman bridge. Service was very good & we didn't wait long for our meals even with a group of 9. Everyone enjoyed their meals: calamari, Pad Thai, sushi, lettuce wraps & my Amazing Curry was tasty & a good portion. Hard to believe this was the a former Panera, I don't even recognize the interior with the transformation.

This restaurant is awesome! The facilities are exceptional the decor is phenomenal and very inviting really sets the mood for a great dinner. The staff were also awesome, very a tentative, always checking on us and always keeping the table clean and uncluttered. The drinks were wonderful and an unlimited selection. The appetizers were also great!! Lots of options here as well, each were very delicious. And the dinners were on point and plentiful. The best asian food I have had in all of Jacksonville Florida. We were never rushed in any way, we were there for over two hours and they stayed on point the whole time. I just cannot say enough about the Green Papaya!! Highly recommended.
