Rice Paddy | Thai Reviews
If you're expecting real authentic Thai food, this is not the place. Ordered the pad Thai and told my party, " You can't really mess up pad thai." With the menu saying it's their most popular dish. Boy was i wrong. the pad Thai was like almost a soup with no flavors. Our party ordered 2 pad Thai, 1 pad see ew and we took 1 bite and everything went in the garbage. So save yourself some money and go McDonald's or something. You'll thank me for it.
Best food ever! Affordable, large portions, and some of the best food I’ve had!!
This is a legit mom and pop joint and it’s amazing I can’t say enough about the food; if your in or around Marquette go there the wait may be a little bit but it is beyond worth it the lady cooking is a Thai food extraordinaire I am only disappointed that I will have to leave Marquette eventually and not have this gem of a restaurant to go to.
