    Vegetable roll, and satay
    Jackie W.

    This is a small quaint restaurant where you will be served authentic homemade tasting Thai food. We heard about this place from our neighbor and decided to try them. It did not disappoint, great serving sizes and the food was fresh with lots of flavor. We ordered vegetable rolls, satay, tom yum soup, pad Thai, red curry chicken and white rice. I can't say which one I enjoyed most because everything was delicious, great presentation and lots of flavors. Our server was also very pleasant which made the experience special. This is a must if you're looking for authentic Thai food. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes.

    This restaurant is truly a gem in our neighborhood. It's in an unassuming plaza by AdventHealth East, but once you get inside you find a nice, clean restaurant with some of the tastiest food! The owner/chef/waitress/hostess and is running back and forth between diners while managing the kitchen and sending off to-go orders. I am so happy to see she's staying busy and hope you make your way to visit Budsaba!

    Blue Sky Lemonade

    My wife ordered the Blue Sky Lemonade. It was sweet and fresh with notes of berries and topped with a sprig of fresh basil. We started our dinner adventure with an order of the Moo Ping appetizer. We were served four skewers of succulent pork with a side sauce. The pork was very juicy and very well seasoned. The delicate sauce added an aroma of spices and herbs to the pork completing a perfecting opening act. For dinner we ordered the Green Curry and the Larb Gai salad. The Green Curry offered spice levels 1-5, I opted in for 4. The flavors were bright and showcased the fresh ingredients fully. From the egg plant to the pieces of bamboo, each flavor offered itself as the hero in each bite. The blend of ingredients created a masterpiece that I would absolutely order again. The Larb Gai salad was fresh and delicious. The minced chicken with fresh shallots and scallions was served with sprigs of lettuce to eat with. Each bite exposed a new depth of mint, cilantro, and lime while staying true to the sour and spicy notes intended for the chicken. I would highly recommend this dish. The restraunt itself has the comfort of family dining mixed with the elegant edge of fine dining. While the prices are affordable, the seating arrangement is limited but feels exclusive in this smaller establishment. We were very comfortable and felt important to the staff. We are always on the look out for a great Thai place, and i know we found it here.I cannot wait to visit again.

    Thai Papaya salad
    Susan L.

    Cozy Thai restaurant off Chickasaw trail filling a void in that area. We only ordered the papaya salad to go since we had already a protein at home for dinner. It also helps us judge the quality of a Thai restaurant, we also do the same with a red curry. We got the plain papaya salad, which was very good, what I really liked is that she offered it in a mild flavor and then gave my husband the chili to put on his side after we asked for medium Thai hot that was a lifesaver for me. I like spicy but spicy doesn't like me anymore. The only thing I would be cautious of if you are vegetarian or don't eat pork that you request there are no pork rinds on it. We were kind of surprised it came that way and I'm sure for some people that would be awesome. The chef was one of the original chefs at Isaan Zaap. She wanted to do a more homey Thai place. I think she achieved that goal very nicely. I will definitely go back and try some of the other dishes.

    First time here, service was amazing, you get the cozy vibe in the store and they put in love and consideration to every plate and decor. I like the beef salad dish, beef was juicy and sauce was great, tom yum soup is the best ever with a great balance of spicy and sour taste, a little disappointment on the pork because it's too dry and difficult to chew but overall still an awesome meal!!

    Back at it again, Good to great .

    The food was seriously good actually, great! Everything tasted fresh, the flavors were on point, and there wasn't a single dish I didn't enjoy. Definitely worth another visit.

    First fish dish, lightly fried, very tasty

She built the wrap with expert craftsmanship, and it was delicious. I ordered the Japanese BBQ Wrap (low net carb tortilla with romaine, roasted chicken, napa cabbage, carrots, avocado, crispy wontons, Bachan's Japanese BBQ Sauce, & teriyaki dressing). It was a good wrap! A little high in filler greens, but there was enough of the other good stuff to make this feel like it was worth the price of admission. I'd ask for more sauce, though, always.

    We went to Pine and Oak Tavern during Bite30 and had a great time. We went for an early dinner…read morebecause we have a little one and it was quiet but was starting to get busy by the time we left. A perk of going early was we were able to participate in happy hour! We got some discounted old-fashioned, which were lovely. For dinner the portions were large and since we got Bite30, we got three courses. I got the fish bites and it was a generous portion, they were fresh and light, and I shared them with my baby. I think he ate more than I did! For dinner, I got the ribs, with mac & cheese. The ribs were flavorful, and the mac & cheese was seasoned very well! To be honest, I don't remember what I got for dessert, I think it was toffee cake or bread, pudding or something? It was very good though, my husband got the Keylime and he was jealous of my dessert. The manager and the chef both came out and said hello and checked on us, which we both appreciated. It was a great experience overall, we want to come back and try their brunch!

It is definitely on the pricier side for what it is but not the worst I have seen, but I think that's somewhat expected for the area near Mills Ave and Colonial. It feels like everything in this area is trendy and expensive. This spot also replaced the old Mongolorian restaurant that used to be here, for anyone who remembers what was there before. The parking lot is tiny, but honestly, it wasn't a huge issue when I went. Just something to keep in mind if it's busy. For food, we tried the fried Spam musubi, which was an 8.5/10 for me. I've never had a fried Spam musubi before, and while it's definitely not the healthiest thing for the body, it was good for the soul. The crispy exterior just made it so satisfying. I also tried the ube espresso martini, which was nice and definitely fun to try. For my taste, though, it was very vodka-forward, so I would have preferred a little more of the coffee/ube flavors to balance it out. The Spam and egg Hawaiian breakfast plate was probably my favorite. I really liked the combination and thought it was a solid breakfast, although I do wish the Spam had been fried a little longer to get it crispier. I'm team crispy Spam all the way! Overall, I really liked the atmosphere and thought the food was good. It's a cute spot if you're looking for Hawaiian comfort food with a slightly more elevated/chic diner feel. We don't have too too many of those on this side of Orlando. I'd definitely come back to try some of the other dishes!

    We were in Winter Park for the afternoon and looking for a good, affordable lunch. I'd heard about…read moreBricks & Bowls before (as well as the Ghost Kitchen concept), so we decided to give it a try. I was immediately drawn to the Ghost Pepper Chicken sandwich. I noticed they offered a Boxed Lunch combo that included a half-brick focaccia sandwich, a choice of side, chips, and a cookie. Under the Soups & Sides section of the menu, I saw soups, salads, fruit, chips, and bread listed, so I asked if I could get the Kale Caesar Salad as my side. I was told it wasn't considered a side. That struck me as a little odd since it was listed under "Soups & Sides," but I didn't press the issue and instead ordered the sandwich and salad separately. I do wish there had been a sandwich-and-salad combo option, especially since it's Florida and 100 degrees outside--hot soup wasn't exactly calling my name that day! The Ghost Pepper Chicken sandwich was a bit dry, and I didn't notice much Swiss cheese or enough ghost pepper bang sauce to add much heat or moisture. On the plus side, the focaccia bread was fantastic, and the sandwich was piled high with sliced chicken. Even the half-brick size was plenty filling. The Kale Caesar Salad was much smaller than expected and, ironically, seemed like it would have fit perfectly as a combo side. It also contained more romaine than kale, with just a sprinkling of baby kale on top. The Caesar dressing, however, was excellent--rich, creamy, and full of flavor. At $6 for a small bowl, I was hoping for a little more substance. I also treated myself to the Belgian Chocolate Salted Caramel Cookie that would have come with the Boxed Lunch combo, and it was outstanding. Soft, gooey, and packed with flavor. Bricks & Bowls has a pleasant outdoor seating area in a courtyard setting, with tables shaded by large umbrellas. Just keep in mind that there is no indoor seating, and even with the shade, it can be pretty warm during a Florida summer. Overall, it was a decent first experience with some highlights and a few disappointments. The food had some strong points, particularly the focaccia bread, dressing, and cookie, but at around $20 for a quick-service lunch, I left feeling that the value didn't quite match the price.
