I settled on the dragon and Phoenix. Combination of General Tsao chicken and shrimp in brown sauce. The shrimp taste a little different to me but I am sure it is because I am used to really fresh shrimp. The general chicken was good. It was in small bite size pieces, easy to eat. The portion size was a bit small for a dinner menu. The lunch prices are cheap but I don't know how much smaller the portion is. All in all the food was good. It is much bigger inside than it appears. Clean as well.

Yelped Ming Tree before I left work and ordered take out when I arrived. The wait was about 15 min which is average. They do not have paper menus to take with for future ordering. There wasn't any sauce in the bag for my egg rolls. I ordered the shrimp w lobster sauce in the "brown" sauce as it is served in a clear sauce at this place. I ordered the garlic shrimp some wonton soup and egg rolls and veg lo mein. My bill was $60+. The food was pretty tasty although the wonton soup was very "clear" and had 2 wontons that were so small. This was not good at all and I asked for a large and received a pint. So there is that. The egg rolls were burnt and there wasn't much to those either. Plus I had to ask for the sauce. Now the shrimp w lobster sauce, the garlic shrimp and the lo mein were very tasty and of adequate portion for the price. I do think I will reorder from here on my way home in the future and try some other dishes. Ming Tree has the most flavor in their food in this area. So yay for that!!!

The first thing that stood out was how clean everything was, followed by the quick and friendly service that got us seated right away. The menu offered a great variety of choices. My wife ordered the Sweet and Sour Pork with Lo Mein, which included chicken, pork, and shrimp -- everything was fresh and full of flavor. I went with the General Chow's Chicken. The sauce was tasty without being too spicy, and the rice was perfectly cooked and fresh. I had my mind set on Orange Chicken, which they didn't have, but with so many other good options, it wasn't a problem. The prices are very reasonable and competitive with other local spots. Thanks to the Ming Tree team for a great dining experience -- we'll definitely be back!

My first review for my hobby: Bert's Feast or Flop, where I review my experiences with restaurants…read moreand fast food places to determine whether they are a FEAST or a FLOP. I wanted to start with Thai Cuisine in Maryville because this place deserves more business. Food: 5/5 The food tastes amazing! Everything was cooked perfectly, tasted fresh and you can tell it was made by a chef who truly cares about their cooking. The portion sizes and presentation were excellent and very filling. This was my first time ever trying curry, and I was extremely impressed -- I loved every bite. If you're ever curious about trying curry, get the Yellow Curry. The spice levels range from 1-5, and I got level 2. It had great heat without overpowering the flavors. I also had a bite of my mother's Tornado Shrimp, and it was fried and sauced perfectly. It's hard to sauce fried food well, but Thai Cuisine does it perfectly every time. The vegetables were cooked to perfection too -- they had a great crunch without tasting raw. Lastly, the potstickers are the best in Maryville! ‍ Service: 5/5 The service was professional and super friendly. Our server, Yolanda, was incredibly helpful when it came to deciding which curry I should try and what protein paired best with it. The pacing of the service was excellent because we had time to enjoy our appetizer without feeling rushed into our entrée. You can also tell the cook(s) is passionate about what they do. Atmosphere: 4.5/5 The restaurant was very clean, and the vibes were exactly what you'd expect from a Thai restaurant. My only nitpick was that we were seated next to another group even though there was plenty of space in the restaurant where we could've had a little more room to ourselves. Value: 5/5 The portions absolutely matched the value of what we ordered. I know eating out can get expensive nowadays, but this place is absolutely worth the price they charge. Final Thoughts I absolutely adore Thai Cuisine in Maryville and the employees who work there. They're always friendly and always deliver great food. This will always be one of my go-to spots whenever I'm craving a fresh meal. I just wish this restaurant wasn't so hidden because more people deserve to discover and try it. I'd love to see them move to a more noticeable location someday. If you love Thai food, this is the place to go for a guaranteed great experience! FEAST Overall Rating: 5/5 Would I Go Back?: YES

The broth was warm and satisfying, with a mild flavor that benefited from adding the usual herbs, lime, and sauces. Most of the herbs had seen better days, but they seemed freshish! The mix of meats added variety, and the portion was generous enough for a filling meal. The noodles were good, but the overall dish could have used a richer, more aromatic broth. the meat's tenderness and seasoning was great. Nothing was bad--it just didn't have the depth or freshness that makes a great pho bowl memorable. Still, it is a solid option when you are craving something warm and dependable, especially if you are nearby. I would be open to trying it again and exploring more of the menu.
