    It's it's pretty good food, not my favorite Thai place in town, but certainly not a place that I wouldn't look forward to going back to you again. A little on the spin of your side and other options in town but, the food is pretty good.

    I went here on Saturday for a "Find your Hiipe" private event. There is a room in the back of the restaurant that is perfect for parties and gatherings, it has its own bar back there as well. The restaurant catered all the food for this event and it was absolutely delicious. The Lo Mein noodles and spring rolls were my favorite!!

    Stopped in for lunch today with coworkers. We opted to sit at the bar, as the service seems to be much quicker and the waitress/bartender is more attentive. I went with my usual, yellow chicken curry. The food came out quickly and was served with choice of a fresh or fried spring roll. I always go with fresh, not a big fan of the texture of the fresh roll. The curry was ok. But definitely something different on this visit. There were chunks of pineapple, which I definitely don't remember ever having before. It was ok, but added a weird sweetness. Not sure I'm a big fan of this change, unless I was just given the wrong dish.

    I had the opportunity to dine once again at 98 Asian bistro this past week with a rather large group of friends. The service was impeccable, and our server was incredibly friendly, remembered all of our names and drink orders, and very unobtrusively provided service in a timely manner. The food was incredibly flavorful, if a bit on the pricey side; however the portions are more than plentiful. The Lemongrass Chicken I ordered was enough for my dinner and lunch the following day. I continue to be impressed with the food and I'm glad they have maintained a strong presence in High Point.

    Always great service there. The food is made fresh and it's the best Asian inspired food in the area for sure. They also have a huge banquet room for large parties , reunions & weddings etc.

    If I could give a place 5+ stars, this would definitely be the place! Have you ever taken a bite out of food and immediately get a tear in the eye because of how delicious and nostalgic the taste was? This was exactly how I felt when I took a bite into the Thai Fried Rice. The ingredients all blending in together so perfectly, I felt like the critic guy off of the Ratatouille movie when he had the flashback after taking a bite. The vibes in this place were absolutely relaxing and smoothing, perfect date night idea! I will absolutely be back for more

    The ambiance is so authentic - you should just go to see the inside! The chicken satay was a little cold but the cucumber dressing that it comes with lovely to dip our egg rolls in. The bartender tonight made a lychee martini that was perfectly blended, couldn't taste the alcohol but I felt it haha. Egg rolls are making me wish I worked there, just so I could eat them whenever I want. My friend got the Panang Curry Chicken which is really spicy hot and I enjoyed Tom Yum soup - the best name for it because it was yummy and perfect temperature on a cold night. We each got a fortune cookie and found out on your birthday, you can sound the large drum in the restaurant!

    I decided to check out this restaurant on my own on my way home from a day trip to Greensboro-High Point... First of all, the place was beautiful...spacious, with a nice ambiance, filled with exotic Thai decor. Also had cool overhead music. However, as to be expected from a non-metro restaurant, the volume was very conservatively set to low. Now, here's something "funky". Initially when I arrived, there was no hostess to lead me to the table...although I saw at least 2 tables full already. Instead of a proper greeting and a walk-up to a table, this rude Asian girl basically pointed me toward a table, as if to say "Go There!" (from afar!)...?!? At this point, I mentioned (from afar) that I had made a reservation via Google, and she just blurted "uh-HUH" as if to say, "I don't give a ***K!" (so no idea if she even bothered to mark me off the list or anything??). No lie..."uh-HUH" was her response! Guess you can say that I was nearly shocked at this rude welcome...especially at a restaurant that seemed so nice. I could be wrong, but I'm guessing that this girl (she seemed too young to be the Owner of the restaurant itself, but who knows!) might have been a family member of the Owner or something...'cuz there's just no way a hired hostess, manager (or whatever her title!) would treat a customer like that in ANY restaurant. Luckily, my boy waitress was quite friendly and attentive. If he, too, was as rude as the girl that basically barked at me to go sit down lol, I would have just left. Anyway, I ordered this Pranang Curry dish, as well as these Shrimp Rolls appetizer. Pranang Curry had a good flavor, but it was fairly mild...not as spicy as I would have liked it. I was actually more impressed with their Shrimp Rolls. However, the lettuce on the bottom did not look fresh, as the lettuce was near yellow in color. I found that extremely shocking. Honestly, I expected to love the restaurant...but I ended up just barely liking it. I had mixed feelings, let's just say. Great Shrimp Roll appetizer, good Pranang Curry dish, but bad lettuce. Beautiful decor, friendly waiter, but horribly rude hostess service. Yep..."uh-HUH"...that was my overall impression.

    HOLY SMOKES. I can't believe we haven't been here until now. 98 Asian Bistro is a hidden gem for sure! Christian took care of us last night and made the best martinis, entree suggestions, and all around made our first visit memorable. We got the crispy green beans and chicken on a stick to start with both were great, hot and fresh along with the dipping sauces! The homemade peanut sauce was WOW!! We got the Pad Thai, Lettuce Wraps and Cashew Chicken for our entrees and we're not disappointed. The Pad Thai was hands down the best Pad Thai I've had ever, full of flavor! The lettuce wraps were great, the sauce to put on them had so much flavor. Finally the Cashew Chicken, it had good flavor and was cooked nicely. We've already determined we'll be going back.. and soon! This is the perfect Asian restaurant and the atmosphere is great. HIGHLY recommend.

    We came to 98 Asian Bistro with some friends and our kids. The dining area is spacious and there were a few large groups seated comfortably. The ambiance is elegant /casual. The service needs work as there were some delays with our food. Our main dishes came out but they forgot to bring my daughter's fried rice with chicken. After telling the waitress it still took 20 minutes longer to bring her food out. The food was really good and no complaints there. I asked for several to go boxes because we had a bit of food left over and when I started to put the food away another staff member comes by and starts to take away my sons almost full meal. Then when I told her I was taking that to go, she proceeded to drop the plate back on the table with three other utensils that weren't the ones my son used. I found that to be a rude gesture. They also billed us for calamari that we did not receive and when we mentioned something about that, the waitress said we are supposed to notify them before the check comes out which doesn't make any sense if they forgot to bring something out. The gratuity added to our large group tab seemed excessive over 25% for a lack of service.

    I am highly disappointed in my food tonight. I had to wait for 40 minutes for a takeout order after calling 13 times in a busy line the food is so tasteless and boring. I spent over $20 for this meal and I am disgusted I literally feel like I could have done better ordering some thing from the freezer section of Publix. My food was supposed to be medium spice and it taste like basic rice noodles with no seasoning. This is absolutely the worst pad Thai I have ever had, based on this experience, I recommend never coming to this restaurant.

    This restaurant is so beautiful inside. I love their tree and large Buddha. I have been here several times, always trying something different and I've never been disappointed! Their menu has many options from lettuce wraps to pad Thai to lo mein, all of which are my go to's! Great place for meetings as well, they have a private room. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

    The yellow curry is amazing! I've tried so many restaurants and this is my favorite. It's not your normal Asian restaurant and the food is delicious. The service was impeccable. I will definitely visit them again. as I have just moved here. So lucky to find them!

I liked the ambience of the restaurant and our server was pleasant. The orange dragon roll with mango was sublime and I will definitely return just for that. On the downside, I found the other things I ordered somewhat inedible. The edamame wasn't steamed enough so it was incredibly difficult to pop them out of their pods to eat. I got tired of trying. My friend ordered the vegetable tempura app and she offered me a sweet potato since that is my favorite. It hadn't cooked all the way through in the center so again difficult to eat. The other roll I ordered had eel in it. Now I have eaten quite a lot eel before but I never had tasted eel so chewy. The mouth feel was so gross that I ended up spitting it out. I think this place has a lot of good qualities so I am willing to give them another shot but I would like to remind their chefs to slow down to ensure that the food is cooked more properly so it would be more enjoyable to its patrons.

    My first time visiting!…read more The inside I'd small but they've made good use of the space without it feeling overly crowded. There's also outdoor seating which is great for this time of year. It wasn't overly busy when I visited but there was a long wait for the food. There seemed to be 2 servers for the dining area and 1 bartender which is a bit lean for a Saturday night. They were very good though and never seemed frazzled and I never felt forgotten. It did take about 30 minutes to receive my entree which felt excessive for what I ordered. I was also surprised there was a $5 upcharge for fried rice and it was a very basic portion-rice with eggs, no veggies or anything else. The Pad Prik was the winner-it was the right balance of spice without being overwhelming. The veggies were fresh, the pork was tender, and it came out hot. Pricing seemed a little higher for cuisine of this type compared to other places in the area. I'd be interested in visiting again to try some items from their sushi menu.

I ordered a Kirin instead. When I ordered the new beer, we ordered yellowfin, bluefin, and escolar nigiri as a starter. Beer came out several minutes later and we ordered our main courses (a combination of a noodle dish and several appetizers.) About ten minutes later, our server came up and told us they were out of bluefin. Ok, fine. We looked at the menu and picked another nigiri (yellowtail.) Another wait and she came back and told us they were out of the lettuce wraps we ordered. Now we are three items that you are out of with wait times that took longer than they should have to notify us so we could adjust accordingly. Our second round of food comes out before the first round that we ordered. At this point we are just satisfied that we are getting anything that we ordered, even out of order. When the check comes, the market value bluefin is on the check ($12) and I comment to the server that this was not correct. She responded that it was fine because she didn't ring us up for the yellowtail, which was half the price of the bluefin. I get that fresh ingredients can be out of stock. That is totally acceptable. I get that sometimes food and beverages can sell out, also acceptable. What I have a hard time accepting is that for some reason THREE different courses were unavailable and the service staff didn't know ahead of time or notify us timely enough to keep the flow of service intact. During the shuffle of repeatedly telling us that they didn't have what we ordered came at the cost of our courses coming out completely out of sync. The issue of trying to charge us for a much more expensive nigiri since it was replaced for an item that was literally half the price was almost an insult if not intentionally done to keep the check price up. I'm glad I looked at the check instead of just giving her my card so we could leave. Overall, the quality of the food was fine and the service was apologetic given the several missteps, but overall, it was far from what we had from the recommendation we had received. I reached out SEVERAL times via email to the management and have not had a single response, so either they don't have one or they don't care. We won't go back and there are much cheaper and better options all over the place.
