“Overall, wonderful experience! I went to try it for the first time with my parents today, as we wanted to try something new. My mom ordered chicken pad thai and I ordered shrimp pad thai; both are just as good. My dad ordered the Gyu-Don Rice Bowl, which was a good serving for him. Definitely check it out! :D“

“It’s a family ran business. Everybody is so nice and helpful. We always go there on a Friday night with 10 people unannounced. And they always make room for us somewhere. They’re just very nice. Their food is always so hot and so fresh we just love it. I would definitely recommend it to my best friends. 🤩“

“Great food and wonderful service. Mike the owner does a great job making sure every dish is fresh and delish ❤️“

“Love it the best thai food in palm beach county and I have been to a number of them.

Vegetarian options: Many items to choose from, if you do not eat meat. Or seafood and they have tofu as well, or just veggies and vege rolls. Miso soup etc. This Thai restaurant uses all fresh veggies. And some of the others do not. My favorite go to thai restaurant in palm beach county“

“Saito’s is good not great. I’ve been to better Japanese Hibachi. They didn’t have sushi!!!The server wasn’t the most personable & took forever to bring us our check. The chef was good. Food was yummy but for the price I’d expect bigger/better quality. Definitely worth going at least once during your adventures in Wellington.“

“Best sushi in the area have tried others and Always return to sushi king“

“buena atención y muy rápido me atendieron“

“This shopping location has a few yummy places I frequent. Just avoid this area when we have torrential rains, if you do not you will notice the parking lot is mostly flooded. I dine at this place because of my three favorite dishes. The unagi don, softshell crab, the JB Roll, and the fried calamari (my apologies my foto was very blurry) and could not post it. The staff is so friendly and helpful. Each time I dine here for my faves I feel much cozier and satisfied. ✌?☺️“

“Saigon Tokyo is a Vietnamese restaurant with a sushi bar. It is very packed, which is good for business. Full Viet menu and Japanese menu. Workers seemed busy, which is good. However, not that kind. Told me I could not have my own water and to put it away. I always bring my own water because i can not drink pipe water from restaurants. Also took a long time for service with little to no friendly words. Food came out hot and fresh. 4 stars for the food, 1 less star for the lack of friendliness while dining.

Pork fried gyoza appetizer with orange slices - delish
House ginger salad - well made, nice sized
Pork Beef Chicken Combo Vietnamese Fried Rice - favorite!!
Saigon Roll - mediocre roll, very beautiful to look at, could use some pizzazz“
