“I am a huge Thai food fan but have been struggling to find a good Thai place since Covid. I honestly had given up PLUS I’m super picky about my Thai food.I’ve passed by this place so often and for some reason I was thinking it would be watered down American Thai.Maybe because it’s in a nice strip mall off Woodward, near Square Lake.Boy, I was soooo wrong. The food was amazing. Very very flavorful. High quality. I had lunch with a friend who’s been to Thailand (more than once) and she was also very please with the food.I even had lentils in my dish, something I’ve never seen or tried before but again, so, so, so good.I watched, and they do a lot of carryout, which tells me everyone else already knew how good the food was, I guess I’m just late to the Thai food party.They have an assortment of organic teas which was a nice touch AND it’s very clean inside, which is a major ‘+’ for me.Pete, the owner, was there when we were there. Very personable man. He even came over to see how we liked our food once he learned it was our first time there.All in all, I feel like I can breathe a sign of relief and happiness, that I’ve found high quality, flavorful, Thai food.My new ‘go-to’ ?“
“Usually pretty good food, pretty decent prices, and pretty quick service! Thai "favorites" seem to be "to taste" for many folks so it may not be the best you've had, and while this place isn't exactly the fanciest or anything it's usually pretty consistent and quick for take-out!“

“Wow. Tbh I was a little skeptical bc good Thai food can be hard to come by these days, but Saab Sis Thai is a keeper:- Generous portions.- Reasonable prices.- Great balance of flavors (Just a reminder that Thai medium can be quite spicy haha).In particular, the grilled tilapia was great! (Pro tip: kindly ask for a reheat and they will refry the other side so both sides are crispy.) The balance between the fish and the sauce was ?.The papaya salad Laos style with the crab was a great accompaniment to the pineapple fried rice and pad Thai entrees we ordered.The service and vibe was also on point. Keep in mind the place isn’t that big, so if you’re coming with a party of 4+ you might want to call ahead.Looking forward to coming back again!Edit: Came back again to make sure the first time wasn’t a fluke. It wasn’t haha. The pad see ew might be the best I’ve ever had. I found that “mild +” is the right spice level for me. The papaya salad + fried tilapia is the perfect combo for a flavor bomb with a cacophony of textures. We will be back again!“
“As a Thai American, I don’t usually eat at Thai restaurants in Michigan because many places don’t make authentic Thai food. I now have a place I can order all of my favorite Thai dishes, and all of the flavors are on point. The fried rice and pad Thai taste just like they do in Bangkok, and pad khing tastes like how my mom would cook it for me. They truly care about good food here, and I will be going back soon!“
“Really great, flavorful Thai food! The dine in space is cute, and the service was great! Everyone was so friendly. I ordered the Bangkok fried rice, medium spice. It was a huge portion, and they were not shy on the shrimp and chicken. I also ordered the tofu tod which was also really good. I would definitely come back!Vegetarian options: Everything can be made vegetarian“
“The sushi is really good. Prices are fair and service is great. I’d like to see this place full of customers because the food deserves to be tasted by many others. I guess the place could use some updates and that’s why it isn’t attracting as much people. However, I’ve gone once and quite late, so that might be the reason it was almost empty.“
“10/10 Thai food with amazing service. We started with Thai tea which was very refreshing and flavorful. I got the Panang curry with chicken, which was a coconut curry with the perfect balance of sweet and savory. Great portion sizes & comfortable level of spice. I would highly recommend!!“
“Their hot and sour soup is different from almost any other hot and sour soup I've come across before. It's lighter in color and less vinegary and is spiced perfectly (not just heat-wise but the flavor is slightly different from others). It tastes so good. It's my favorite and has been since I used to go to their other location on Rochester road (which I think isn't there any more) many years ago. I drive out of my way just for the hot and sour soup. It's so good to me that I've never tried their Tom yum soup so I can't review that. Their other dishes are very flavorful and delicious. Their prices are reasonable as well. There is only one other Thai restaurant in metro Detroit that has food which I would rate higher but only by just a tiny tiny bit. Orchid Cafe still gets 5 stars from me. Orchid Cafe is one of the best Thai restaurants in metro Detroit and I've never had a bad experience here.“
“What a gem! We walked over from our hotel and I'm glad we did! To start the hot and sour soup is thicker than I was used to, but I think it made it better. It was delicious! The Pho Special is fantastic! You have to try it out. Very friendly servers and all around great experience. I will be back to try other dishes out.“
“Really lovely place! The food came out fast and everything was affordable and delicious, especially the lunch deal. Medium spice level was actually perfectly medium spicy ❤️? Also love that you can order a small size soup. Thai iced tea was tall and creamy and delicious.The inside of the place is also really cute and clean. Would come back again :)Vegetarian options: You can get tofu as the protein in most dishes!“
“I started coming here for a couple of months since I got my new job and it is close bye. Addicted since. The best curry fried rice and best soups in the world. After getting it a couple times coworkers started joining in and now our whole office orders here together. Never had any complaints and they always have the best service. Highly recommend!!“
“Just as good as I remember! The new restaurant has a great mix of the old decor and new. Everything was very clean. Staff is getting the hang of things, but to be honest they did a wonderful job for just opening. Aimee was wonderful. The sushi/fish is very fresh. I would highly recommend Little Tree!“
“I love this place so much. Everything on their menu rocks. Service is excellent, even with them being constantly busy. Can’t beat this spot for amazing pho. My photos are from a day we specifically set out to try non pho items, which also slapped. Highlyyyyyy recommend. Highly. (Enthusiastic Emphasis added!)“
“My favorite Thai spot, hands down, I drive over an hour sometimes, and they have never disappointed me. If you want good food and great service, this is it! They have the best prices and the best tasting foodVegetarian options: Tofu and vegetarian dishesParking: Parking behind the building is the best, the main road is always packed.“
“Sunrise Thai is one of my go-to thai spots when i want a relaxed atmosphere and good curry! I absolutely love their curry dishes, but the noodle dishes are also great. The people who work here are always very friendly and happy to make recommendations.“
“Since I tasted the food at Taste of Vietnam on January 7th, I have decided that I would never go to another Vietnamese restaurant in Waterford again. Today is my second time visiting here. Love the food, environment, and service here. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.“
“So happy I found this place! The sushi is consistently fantastic. The presentation, the freshness, the price point, this is a perfect no frills cozy spot for take away or a date. I get the C4 sushi special that comes with 6 chef's choice sushi and a spicy tuna roll. I tried the mix soba last time I was there and it was delicious! If you're in the area, this sushi will not disappoint.“
“Penn’s Thai Cafe is our favorite. If you want some fancy expensive restaurant, then this is not the place for you. Great food, generous, moderately priced portions, and a nice Mom & Pop feel to the place. The owner is nice and always makes me feel like I’m her favorite customer. “
“This was my first time trying Thai. A friend of mine suggested it and it turned out to be a wonderful choice. We started with a soup that came with a very interesting prawn cracker that was melt-in-your-mouth good as well as the appetizers of crab wontons and spring rolls. My friend ordered the Pad Thai and, since the menu was new to me, I asked the waitstaff for her recommendation. She selected the Curry Noodle for me. Of course, I had to taste both dishes. Everything was wonderful and I was pleasantly full by the end of the experience. I would recommend anyone who hasn't tried it before to give it a chance. You'll be glad you did.“
“The best Thai food we’ve had!! And we eat a lot of Thai food. They are so friendly and nice here and always get our order correct. Food is delicious, fast, and reheats well since they give such big portions. This has been our go to place for over 10 years and unfortunately moved further away so can’t have it as often. But will be coming here when we can!!Also brought a bunch of kids here to eat and they were so friendly and accommodating. And when we needed a bunch of napkins to clean up messes they were so nice about it.“
“This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants. This is a family business and Kai is one of the reasons I continue to come back. She knows I continue to order the same thing. Kai asked if I was going to select and new dish for the new year.....ummmm, no! lol Kai had me try the Kow Pad Nam Prik Prow years ago and I've been ordering it ever since. I order it mild since the peanut sauce already gives it a little kick. I make it my own by adding broccoli and chicken. The spring rolls are awesome too. It's always delicious and enough for two people or two meals. You need to give them a try! You won't be disappointed. Note: The dining room has been closed since the pandemic. They are still carry out only. I recommend you call your order in and then it's ready to grab and dash.“
“I had gotten chicken pad thai take out. 4/5 spiciness and whoah. I love hot food, Chile's and such. If you aren't used to eating hotter than a jalapeño then stay below a 3! Lol other than that the noodles were good, sauce was awesome and chicken had great flavor. I am no baby and finished the whole lunch portion! Will do it again but likely a 3/5 spicey ?“
“I have been going here since I was in high school. I joined the air force and after 3 years I came back and they still remembered me. I was so busy talking to them when I left that I forgot my credit card. A year later I came back and they still had my credit card and remembered to give it back to me.10/10 the best restaurant in all of metro detroit. When I come back home it is a must stop ❤️Also get the Tom Yum Gai soup, Chicken Pad Thai and the Egg Rolls ❤️“
“This is by far the best and most underrated Thai restaurant in Metro Detroit. Every dish is delicious and comes with hot sour soup which is also phenomenal. Always fast service and very fairly priced. A must try if you're in the area!“
“Food was great! And the waitress was very very, GOOD we plan on coming back! We have now been back several times. & enjoyed it each and every time& Look forward to our next visit. Special shout out to the WAIT staff., THEIR PLEASANT & WELCOMING DISPOSITION HELP MAKE THE TOTAL EXPERIENCE SO VERY PLEASANT. DN“
“Always fresh, quick, and tasty. No "dine in" service any longer (since Covid). You may optionally eat your takeout at a table (unattended) if needed, and they struggled to get menus printed for over a year. But none of these nuances is remarkable for this type of restaurant. Their curries, soups, and Pad Thai are very remarkable, and I am very grateful it is in my neighborhood.“
“I found this restaurant by chance. I placed an online order with this restaurant, Thai Taste To Go, thinking I was ordering at the Thai restaurant we normally order from. Turned out to be a wonderful mistake. We order from here now almost weekly. Food is delicious and generous portions. My wife has celiac and they prepare gluten free, no cross contamination. Highly suggest fried rice, basil fried rice and red coconut curry.“
“Excellent Thai food, professionally, prepared one of the few Thai restaurants, you can get papaya salad, which is phenomenal, very spicy even if you order medium it has a good amount of spice so be careful. I’ve had almost anything on the menu, but the yellow curry and green curry are phenomenal. Their service is great. They have two waitresses at all times never have to wait too long. Highly recommend to any family and friends“
“This is a very nice Thai take out. The restaurant was very clean. The woman who works the front desk is very nice and very helpful. I ordered the apple salad, which is amazing ,hot and sour soup which was really good , and main dishes pad pak beef mild ,and pad Thai chicken mild + both dishes were above and beyond on point with flavor and spice. I will be coming back here again for takeout. They do have a few seats you can sit at if available, but it’s better for takeout.Dietary restrictions: I did see they had gluten-free a few items on the menu I believe“
“Ordered carryout from Bk tonight, and it was delicious! The chicken satay is huge and tasty, the Tom Yum soup is fantastic with a great kick (ordered medium spicy), and the Thai drunken noodle dinner includes big chunks of fresh vegetables! We'll definitely be back!“
“The food is supreme here compared to other Thai restaurants. I try to dine here often. Staff is friendly and The decor is much nicer than many mall restaurants. Pad Thai is very good and better than most others. I love a Yellow curry dish with chicken which comes in a large white bowl and rice on the side. I do request the addition of. sliced red sweet pepper.“
“What I like about Tokyo sushi is it's a fuss-free unpretentious experience. You can go have reasonably priced sushi that will not shock you. The ramen, however leaves a lot to be desired. But if you have no expectations and want an affordable place to have lunch, it works.“
“A new - to me - Thai restaurant. It's almost noon, let's go.The building is unusual, multiple businesses with a central hall accessible from the east or west end. A small version of a mall.Six booths and two tables welcome you.Menus are under the glass top of the tables, I like that, efficient & hygienic.Decided on Massaman shrimp curry. Comes with a cup of hot and sour soup. Great starter for a February lunch.I tried joking with the person who brought my food (as I usually do) but she was not a receptive audience.The food was delicious, and a good quantity, as well. Lunch portions are between $10 & $11.00, dinners run $13 - 14.00.The vibe was a little more sterile than I prefer but it wouldn't slow me down in return thoughts at all.Vegetarian options: Typical of Asian cuisine, most entrees can be ordered vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: Ingredients are in the descriptionParking: About 15 spaces on the east side alone.Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room to navigate and park at tables/booths.“
“First time trying this place and I'm happy with my decision. The Gang Gai had a little kick for it being mild. There was a good amount of vegetables and beef. It came with a side of white rice which helped soak up the delicious curry sauce. The Kow Pad and Pad See Ew both had really good classic savory flavors. The portions were big too!“
“This place has become my favorite Asian cuisine restaurant, especially in Pontiac, maybe of Metro Detroit. It's a small establishment that does not look very impressive, especially from the outside, but the food has been fantastic. So far I have tried their Chinese and Thai foods, all have been some of the best I've tried, but their crab rangoons are easily the best I've ever had. I would return for those alone, but I'm excited to try new things each time. Their orange chicken is one of the best I've had too. Their pad thai is very good, but I have had others that are probably even tastier. Still, I'm sure their other dishes are amazing. I hope other will find this hidden gem and help to keep them in business! I want to keep trying their food for years to come! I may update this after I have tried more dishes, especially the pho, the bowls of it I have seen were huge and looked and smelled incredible. Oh! And the Thai tea and coffee are very good, very sweet though. And prices are very good and reasonable! Especially for the portion sizes.I should also mention the work staff! Usually seems like there is one waiter and one cook, but they are quick and polite. Not overly friendly or talkative, but their English is pretty good and they were easy to order with and open to some substitutions when asked, which was greatly appreciated.Vegetarian options: There may have been a few labeled vegetarian dishes, but many of the dishes could easily be had and enjoyed without any meat.Parking: Open lot with plenty of parking spaces, maybe not in the best shape, but no issues.“
“Best Thai in the area at this price.Edit: Something changed. All the old servers are gone. Service is less than stellar. Food quality has taken a hit as well. Tried twice since the change and I do not think I will be back. There is better Thai around in the area now.“
“Wow, I have been missing out! My favorite Thai food. Food was delicious, service was exceptional. Very neat, clean and wide open dining room. Large portions. The owner so friendly. I’m Thai and recommended this place. It’s authentic Thai taste.“
“Was not my first choice for Thai but was glad as heck to stop in.Attentive waitress and knew what she was doing. Food was very good and the place was clean. We each had the Drunken Noodles with Chicken, medium plus on the spicy side and Pad See-Ew also the same way, both were exceptional. Big note here, while moderately busy we didn't have to wait and that is so important.Job well done“
“This is my go to lunch spot! I eat here about 3-4 times a week for lunch as I work nearby & have never been disappointed, highly recommend this for authentic Thai food! Be careful with the spice level as they use real chili peppers in their spices! My favorite option is the build your own lunch/dinner specials with a pork spring roll!“
“Wonderful service. Wonderful food. Their tofu is the best around and their spice level is perfect (it's actually spicy!)It is cash only but there's ATMs everywhere these days... Including across the street.This is my favorite Thai food and they always treat me like a friend!“
“I love it her the food warms my heart. I dance every time I go. The Thai tea is amazing. I was just telling my mom I want another. Service can be better I’ve had a time or two where I got the wrong dish. However the dish was good so I didn’t complain. Just pay more attention when we call pass that keep doing y’all. I love it.“
“Update.I’ve eaten here a good amount of times and tried a lot of their other dishes. I haven’t been able to consistently take photos so will add more in the future:- Pad Thai, Pho, Gang Gai, Pineapple Fried Rice: Easily 5/5 and consistent in taste.- Thai spicy wings . Not crispy and too drenched in the sauce.- Yum E Shan Salad, Chicken Laab . Both salads taste similar and not worth reordering… Heads up to ask for sauce on side to avoid saucy greens.Gangpah . Barely any meat. Sauce is pretty much soup. Lemongrass is overbearing.Restaurant . Well organized, clean bathrooms and kitchen.“
“The food tasted great! My only problem is I think the oil they used may have been old. If not for that, I would've given them 5☆. However, as good as the food was, I would definitely consider them a dinner option. The service was great! The staff were friendly! If you're in Southfield, Michigan, give them a try.“
“This is one of my favorite Thai spots. I’m always satisfied with my carry outs and I typically get the chicken fried rice. My dining in experience was only okay. The waiter made us feel rushed and they were still open for another hour. Plus, the cocktails were not all that. My food was still good like always and I always have leftovers because they do give you a lot.“
“The Food absolutely great and the service is friendly ,the atmosphere is nice, not too loud. I’ve been coming here with family and friends for many years & will continue!Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible, which is very nice.“
“Wow, what can I say. Best Asian food I’ve had in a long time. Peking duck was amazing, all of the various rolls I tried were great, exceptionally fresh. The drinks were also very well made, and tasted amazing, even the mocktails were very good, same amount of effort put into them as the normal cocktails. Dessert was also amazing, had the cheesecake.Parking: Ton of spots, very large lot.“
