    Bubble Tea menu a d special
    Azalea C.

    The service is great and fast. The waitress was very attentive we didn't have to look for her. The food was brought out quickly after ordering. The ambience is casual dining.

    I cannot say enough about this place. I've been driving by…read morethis location for years and telling myself that I would stop in today I finally did. I took the recommendation of our server on dish and chose a nice spicy curry and was not disappointed. While it was not as spicy as I would have hoped, he told me how to order it hotter the next time. The flavor combinations and the depth of flavor was so amazing. Are crab Rangoon has outdone every other crab Rangoon I've ever had. At this point, I could name other places where I thought their crab Rangoon was amazing... And at this point they no longer even hold a candle. A nice hearty crab chunks mixed in with the cream cheese sauce and filling, and it's just to die for. The dessert of the sticky rice with mango was sweet and thick and filling and just rich beyond description. The lighting is soft and easy in the eyes, the colors on the walls are pleasant and pink and oranges and brown purples, sounds a pleasant to listen to everybody cooking in the music, while faster and hip-hop was not distracting. I quite enjoyed listening to it, listening to Thailand versions of American hits. It was quite an enjoyable experience all around. We look forward to coming back.

    All I can say is wow! We started off with the Gyoza which…read morewere perfectly crispy and light to start off with. Then moved onto the noodles and fried rice and finally finished off with the custard sticky rice. Absolutely everything was phenomenal. We were already planning to return before we even finished our food. Service was good and friendly, water refilled quickly. The ambiance is great because that place is popping! They are full quite regularly from what I can tell so be aware you may need to wait just a little bit. Parking is tight so be aware of nearby lots or side streets especially if there on a weekend. Will definitely be back, absolutely deserved five stars!

    Decided to take myself out for dinner on this Saturday before Mother's Day so I drove to sweet…read moremango on a whim which I seem to be doing a lot lately. I walked in at 3:30 and of course the place is empty, Zoweee, all for me. They didn't notice me for the first two or three minutes and I guess they didn't hear all the bells that were ringing on the door either. But I was eventually greeted warmly, sat down immediately, given an ice cold perfect glass of water. I ordered the Summer Rolls appetizer which I always order by mistake cause I like the spring rolls which are fried little fingers of goodness. But the summer rolls came out in 45 seconds and they were just beautifully presented like always. They had plenty of noodles, Julienne vegetables and just enough cucumber pieces and shrimp pieces to get noticed. The description said basil mint, of which I did not see or taste. But plenty of hoisin sauce for drizzling. Then came the entree, Mango Paradise which was chicken pieces, three medium shrimp, a bevy of red bell peppers, green, bell peppers, snow pea pods, Julienne carrots, and I believe straw mushrooms all in a brown sauce that I shared with white jasmine rice. Absolutely delicious and it was served piping hot. Those of you that read me often know I am so tired of sending food back because it's cold, but the appetizer that was supposed to be cold came out cold and my entrée which was supposed to come out hot came out piping hot. I haven't been to this place in a while and usually I go for lunch so this was a new choice for me to dine. I was served the appetizer first, they didn't rush me, the entrée came out precisely as I finished the appetizer and then of course there was so much on that plate, I eventually got a Thai to go bag. From start to finish, this was a raving experience, and I mean that in the best of ways because I could rave on and on about every single bite I took. Anytime I've been there has not been a whole lot of people there and I don't get to Strongsville often. I certainly do hope if you like, if you LOVE Thai food , give this place a shot the very first second you have to spare. DON'T LET THE TEENY TINY PARKING LOT SCARE YOU ---it's beautiful inside it's authentic, the servers and the chef who brings out your food are authentic and they can cook for me anytime. If there was more than five stars to give, they would get a 10 star from me.

    It's hard to believe this is a strip mall shoebox restaurant. The décor is delightful, the staff…read morevery friendly and welcoming, and the soft ambient music playing is very relaxing. Best of all, the food was very good. The coconut shrimp had a nice, crunchy exterior with a pronounced coconut flavor. The beef satay were nice and tender and the peanut and cucumber sauces were nice accents to the satay sauce flavor. And the Tom Kha Gai soup was delicious. Perfect balance of sweet and savory. Our entrées were visual, as well as gustatory feasts. The rice that accompanied our curries was moulded into a cone, which was unique in my experience. The mango curry came with chicken and shrimp and had a pleasant, mild flavor. I asked for my beef Panang curry medium hot and it came exactly that way. Usually I have to order it extra-hot to get it medium. We had sticky rice and mango and Thai custard for dessert. The sticky rice was a tad gluey and the mango could have been a smidge riper, but it was very tasty nonetheless. Neither of us had ever had Thai custard and it was interesting to say the least. It came like a small, flat loaf cut into four slices. It has pieces of taro in it and a very firm texture, but a pronounced eggy flavor. It was a pleasant surprise. Sweet, but not overly so, with a subtle flavor that was quite pleasant. Thai iced tea was the perfect accompaniment to a very nice luncheon.

    I was running errands in Strongsville and had preemptively searched for a solid place to eat/get…read moretakeout. Thank you Cleveland Magazine for directing me to Thai Dynamite. All warned of the spice levels being REAL. I heeded caution while my mouth is not weak. A must, I got pad thai with chicken (any thai place that messes this up gets written off for me), pad woon sen with chicken, both at the base level spice, and their crab rangoon. I will preface that I did takeout and drove 20 mins home before I ate BUT considering that the food, the food was still hot and delicious. The pad thai had plenty of flavor, fresh veggies and green onions and the right sauce-you could taste the tamarind. The pad woon sen, while not what I'm used to with a darker sauce was delicious and had great spice, perfect sauce to coat all the goods and flavor. The crab rangoon comes in a spring roll form...which I'm not mad at but did make me want more filling to match the extra wrapper. The wrapper is also a different type of fried crunch that doesn't do the same as a wonton but again a vehicle, nonetheless. I definitely have it on my radar for the next time I'm in Strongsville. Small place in an unsuspecting plaza, which is always good, very little tables inside and a little on the dark side ambiance wise. But I don't care when the food lives up to it. If you're looking for flavor, you can't go wrong even on the mild end of the spice spectrum. Don't burn your mouth and miss the chance at tasting the authenticity.

    Located in a small strip center next to a bar and a convenient store. There was loud construction…read moregoing on next door when we dined there. This is more of a takeout spot with a few high top tables for inside seating. So, if you planned to have dinner there, there is no privacy as you can see the kitchen and checkout counter from the tables. No restrooms. Free parking. All orders are piping hot and served in plastic containers. Each order is packed as a to-go order (in plastic containers & in a plastic bag) even if you dine in. The cashier (possibly owner) is friendly and very talkative. They noted the place has been open since 2023 with hope to expand into a sit down restaurant. The food can be made to your spice level. However, keep in mind even the mild was spicy for us. Be careful. If you are vegan, just ask for an option. Generally, some items can be made without fish or oyster sauce if asked. The yellow curry was good, but a bit spicy for us. Decent portion size for $13.95 and comes with rice. Hope to try other dishes someday and will take them to go instead.

    Thai Thai is well known in the city for its Bangkok street food. They are also now known for…read morecarrying Labubu keychains ($10 each). What I most love about this restaurant is their collaborative Lakewood spirit. They are part of Bunts to Birdtown (IG buntstobirdtown) which is a local business collaborative of businesses on Madison Ave in Lakewood. The businesses frequently host fun events - shopping crawls and scavenger hunt (such as today). I love that Thai Thai is part of this little business community and stays involved in Lakewood's social scene. I dropped in at Thai Thai for Bunts to Birdtown scavenger hunt. It was my first and much anticipated visit. The restaurant is currently not fully open and has a limited menu. Limited menu includes baos and bubble teas. It opens for full service again on Friday, August 1, 2025 (full menu and table service). The restaurant is small, has few tasteful Thai details (such as Bangkok skyline art) and neon Thai Thai sign. It's on the trendier side. My order: - Baos with roasted pork. -$6 for 2 - Good value and size! Meat was tasty and well prepared, but Bao was light on the meat. Bao had soggy bottom. - Thai bubble tea - $6 - Traditionally with milk, but they were out of milk. It was totally fine with me. Bubble tea tasted like light peach iced tea to me. It was good, but bobas were soggy. - Taro bubble tea - $6 - Pretty Instagrammable lavender color. Subtly sweet. Soggy bobas. Service was really friendly and welcoming. The owner told me that they just returned from Thailand. So it's amazing to have an authentic spot in the city! I'll stop by when full service will open and try other options on the menu to get the full experience!

We ordered the Tom Yum soup, Red Curry with chicken and Pad Kee Mao with tofu. The Tom Yum soup was great. Very flavorful and still hot after picking it up and taking it home. The red curry was super watery and flavorless. The chicken in it was very bland and the curry really had no flavor. The pad kee mao was a little better, but still not as flavorful as other Thai spots. There wasn't any spice to anything, but I wasn't asked about spice levels when ordering so that could also be on me for not saying I wanted it spicy. The veggies in both the curry and noodles were cooked really well though. There are definitely better and more consistent Thai spots in the area, so not sure that I will be back unfortunately.
