“This place deserves more than 5 stars. Best restaurant to open in Englewood in decades. Even in major cities, I have difficulty finding Northern style Pad Kra Pao with ground pork, and theirs is some of the best I’ve ever had. Friendly staff as well. Thank you, Thai 2 Go!!!“
“Thai food at a sports bar? Yes, in deedy. The best Thai food with 4 levels of hear. Chef's hot makes the food not as enjoyable. Mexican hot is my sweet spot, but my wife prefers medium heat. They only serve beer and wine, but that is all you will want eating the Thai food. The place has that great sports bar vibe with several tvs for the various games available that day.“
“Outstanding. Truly. Tiny intimate place, the parking lot has 8 parking spaces so be prepared. This place that is the best Thai food I've ever had in my life. We are world travelers and enjoy Thai food in many places but this was amazing. We ordered the tuna tower, edamame and fried calamari tentacles for appetizer. Edamame was very fresh, not oily or over salty. Tuna tower was good, I'm not sure if there was enough of the tower quantity to "share" per say. Fried calamari was exceptional, tender octopus and perfectly crunchy fried, not too sharp. The fried rice was well seasoned, with plenty of vegetables that were cooked perfectly. Nothing was soggy or over cooked. I ordered the ted curry fried tofu and was asked what level of spicy 1-5 I would like. I ordered the 3 and it was spicy enough for a few water refills. But the white it came with was cooked in coconut milk I believe so the sweetness balanced out the dish. The the tofu is more rectangular and thinner than chunky so the sear on the outside was well done. It never got soggy inside of the curry. It was creamy and spicy and delicious. Each vegetable addition to the tofu dish had its own flavors as well. There's not a thing I would have changed about this experience. Very beautiful and comfortable setting. We had our two children under 5 years old and it was great. Perfect for a date night or family dinner out. Kudos to Baiyoke!“
“This place has authentic flavor and taste. When they say "Thai Hot" they mean it. The heat and flavor is incredible. I had the Pineapple Stir Fry, Crab Rangoons and Chicken satay. I would definitely recommend all this and more. The taste is amazing. The service was awesome and the place was very clean!! Big heck "YES"!“
“Old style ornate Thai with partly curtained booths obviously loved by regulars. The wonton soup full of fresh vegetables, home broth and full of beautiful fresh vegetables was a star surprise. The watery broth in the vegetable pork looked boring as 1950’s chop suey, but in one bite was yet another healthy surprise of flavors that surpass the usual strip mall Chinese bottled sauce of excess oil and salt. Nearly empty at five, even center filled by 7. A secret gem“
“This place is AMAZING! I went to order food to-go and sat at the sushi bar for a glass of wine. I ordered Pad see ew, curry puffs, sushi, and Tom kha soup. It was seriously the best Pad see ew and Tom Kha soup I've had since moving here. The sushi was delicious too, and so was the appetizer. I forgot to take pics before devouring almost ALL of that by myself. The dining room was small and VERY busy-for good reason! So good! Will probably order from here once a week now!“
“As other reviewers have mentioned, the service here is ... unusual. The approach of the wait staff to customers is quite abrupt. As an example, we asked to keep a menu, and the waitress told us no. She said if we decided we wanted to order something else later we could ask her for the menu and she would bring it back. We also asked for silverware to eat our dessert because it looked delicious, but was too hot to touch, and she said that wasn't appropriate because the dish was meant to be eaten with your hands. This is a fair comment, but it's just a little unusual in terms of the service industry in Venice, Florida. If you come to eat here early, they also are definitely trying to rush you out to make room for the diners later in the evening. Service is very efficient, but I think the expectation is that you'll be in and out in less than an hour. Happy crab: this is a whole fried crab with tasty sautéed vegetables surrounding it. I ate the whole thing and had no leftovers, even though it was a giant portion. A word of warning, I don't mind when fried things get soaked and sauce, and then somewhat mushy, that is what this will taste like to you, so, if you don't like your fried things to be smothered in liquid, order a different dish. Comes with sticky rice that was also quite good. 5/5 Cashew sauté: this was not great. Very few cashews, and the flavor was a little lackluster. Vegetables were cooked OK but as I said, just a bit flavorless. 2/5 Parking is very easy, this restaurant is in a strip mall so if you make it to dinner early, there'll be no trouble with parking. The dining room was empty on a Thursday at 5:15, we had made a reservation anyway, but it was definitely full by the time we left at 6 o'clock.“
“Paya Thai is our Sunday tradition… it is that good! We do take out and have yet to eat inside. There is always a wait, but it is worth it.. the food is always hot and delicious! Highly recommend trying their Krab Rangoon, Tom Kha soup and Panang Curry.“
