    Thai Dirty Rice
    Autumn L.

    I love lemongrass so much!!!! Everything is so flavorful. They have a good lunch special, and I would highly recommend the dirty rice. I'm not a huge beef jerky fan, but this meat is so tasty and well seasoned. The portion is a big size too. Definitely enough to share.

    Place was packed the seats within 10 minutes. Food was amazing! Succulent flavors and great heat to the spiciness. Definitely will return the next time we're in Davenport!

    Gra pow with shrimp
    Danielle S.

    I took no chances and went there as soon as they opened at 4pm, this place is super cute and has a great mural on the wall that's fun to look at, the service was great, the food was fast and fresh. I got the Gra Pow with shrimp, the flavor and the level of spicy was perfect really enjoyed my early dinner!

    Thai Dirty Rice
    Mollie G.

    We came here during a volunteer event to get some lunch. It was amazing! The best Thai food in the quad cities. The larb is definitely not served how some of us have had it before but it was still good. The dirty rice and coconut soup was absolutely phenomenal. The interior looks like it's been redone and it's a great place to come and relax.

Quaint little restaurant and the decor was solid. We had to wait for almost everything which isn't surprising as they looked to be short-staffed - I hope they staff more than two front house people regularly. My friend and I had drinks, he tried a Thai beer and peach saki, which he enjoyed. I had fountain root beer. We ordered steamed potstickers, which came out too quickly, were just north of warm and the sauce was far too sweet. Underwhelming. They'd be better if they were up to temp and the sauce was more savory and less sweet. The crabmeat Rangoon was crisp on one side and a little soggy on the other, they came out hot but I think they had been sitting for a bit. The sauce was again, far too sweet. It looked like straight honey with red pepper flakes in it. The entrees however, almost made up for the appetizers. Both plates were large and outstanding flavor. He had Racy Pad Thai (shrimp) with level 2 heat (1-5). I had chicken pad Thai (level 3), with a tamarind-based sauce and chopped peanuts on top. Again, both were fantastic. Overall a pleasant experience, I will return.

They tell you that it's broken but it's not it works. They just don't put it on so they can cheat you. Unfortunately that's what they're doing and I told them to their faces that they're cheating me so I'm going to stop coming here because I'm sick of being cheated and if you're sick of being cheated, eat somewhere else or make them fix the scale so that you can see the price and what you're buying some people buy a lot of food in with them playing games like putting their hand on a scale when it reads it, come on the act like we're really stupid a lot of Chinese people act like Americans are very stupid. It's not cool at all. It's racist.

I hardly ever see anyone cooking at, or making use of the stir fry station. The service is light: drinks/refills, take your dirty dishes, deliver your bill after 3 plates. The decor is cute and the fountain nice. The bathrooms are pretty clean too. However, my most recent visit was a little disappointing due to drinks that had a moldy after taste. We both had iced tea and I feel like the lines hadn't been maintained properly/bleached. I'm sorry to say that we forgot to mention it to the staff before leaving so they could attend to it.

I think the broth was good but could have a bit more depth, but overall still really really good and fresh. The lemongrass chicken over rice was also very good, strong star anise flavor which we all like. The tofu with vermicelli was great, I really liked the tofu. The carrots and daikon are marinated lightly which was really good. Cucumber was shredded so it's easy to eat with the vermicelli. Overall we enjoyed everything. Just wish the place was a bit cleaner, but it's not bad compared to many other places!

Want to sub out or in a different veggie, they will do it. You do have to pay for extras like peanuts or baby corn if you want to add them, but I don't mind. The only dish I didn't care for is the chicken teriyaki, the chicken was too thinly sliced for me. The Chinese mustard is not my favorite, but they have packets of the CM I love for take out orders, so I get it there and bring it in for my egg rolls. Love the pad Thai and Kung Pao chicken. The General Tso is good. They have a good variety of specials for lunch and dinner. The crab Rangoon is delicious. The wait staff is always very nice and accommodating. The restaurant is in a strip "mall" and kept up nicely, no outdated decorations I find in so many Chinese restaurants.

    Review Visit: October 12th, 2014…read more A fancy version of your typical Chinese restaurant. Asia Grill offers everything you can find at your typical 'hole in the wall' Chinese Restaurant, but more upscale. Now, that is not to slam either this place or any other Chinese place. It was just nice to eat at a more restaurant-style Chinese place than the quick grab-n-go places that are everywhere. The food was pretty good and will run you about $8-11 a person, which is what I consider fair. The service was nice, portions were generous and the restaurant was really nice. Overall, if you want to eat Chinese but don't want the 'take out' variety, hit up Asia Grill. My friends and I really enjoyed it... and so did our bellies!
