Love this restaurant and order here all the time, HOWEVER. Today my white rice tasted like literal BLEACH. Unsure if they are properly cleaning/rinsing off the stuff they use to cook in but should seriously look into this as I’ve vomited within 20 minutes of eating this and my throat is currently burning.

Got the curry noodles and have to say I was a bit disappointed. The flavor of the sauce was good, but needed about double the amount they put in. I was also surprised by the very small amount of vegetables that were in my dish—especially compared to some of the photos posted on the google listing by other visitors. Not worth the fairly high price in my opinion.

Good curry pad thai! Didnt really understand where the curry was it was just like regular dry pad thai with fried tofu, but it was good. Tofu had a lot of flavor. Satisfying.

Went to eat at Fish Lads. Only ate there and then left with my spouse. Had a $24 charge on my credit card immediately from Rak Thai, which I did NOT visit or even stop at. Called my credit card company, who won't take it off. Something shady going on. I definitely did not shop there.

I tried the Bulgogi and it was a bit plain, I was hoping for more Thai flavor.

Great little place in the downtown market! Went here for a quick lunch. The place was packed but they were pretty quick.They Pad Thai was the better if the two dishes but they were both very good.Also had some spring rolls that were also good.

Had some decent food here but the past three times were awful. They gave literally less than half the amount of noodles that they typically did for my peanut noodles. It was basically soup. And the tapioca pearls in the boba tea were soooooooo hard i couldn't even drink it. People were nice enough just three bad eating experiences in a row for way too much money.

The best Thai in Grand Rapids, I have ordered A LOT and never disappointed! The taste and spice is amazing.

Not bad. Got the Pad See Ew. Flavor was mostly there, little too sweet. Protein and veggies were good. Two issues I have with it. One, they don’t use fresh noodles and two, they did not get good noodle charing. Using fresh wide noodles and having good technique to get the noodles to char in a high heat wok separate the mediocre Pad See Ews and the amazing ones. This one fell in the mediocre level. If you’ve had good Thai street food or been to Thailand you know.

Always great service. They go above and beyond to make sure the order is done right and they put in extra effort to make sure the food is great
