    Chicken Phad Thai
    Lana E.

    Best Thai food around. We've been coming here for over 15 years and never had a bad meal. The pad Thai and Yum Woonsen are a 10/10 and will take you to Flavortown. This is located in an unassuming retail strip along 436 in Altamonte. Service is great- the waitresses are so nice and very attentive. Definitely stop on in if you can.

    Our server was so nice. She helped us with our order. The food was SO good! I can't wait to go back. The dining room is large, but it was over quiet for a weekday lunch. I had the veggie samosas and tofu yellow curry. My friends order the Krab rangoons and edamame. We had a great time and left full!

    Food was delicious and I loved the control of spice that they gave me. The waitress was delightful.

    Pilin is a a quaint and cozy Altamonte staple that delivers some of the best Thai in Altamonte Springs. They are consistently good and the staff is so friendly and helpful. Their lunch special is hard to beat with a good price to portion ratio. The Panang Curry Chicken is my go to and I get it Thai Hot, which could be spicier in my opinion (but I love spice) and they provide extra chili to kick it up as needed.

    Traditional Pad Thai.

    How have I lived here for six years and just now discovered this little Gem tucked away in a strip mall in Altamonte. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. The serving sizes were generous so I had some to enjoy the next day. I will definitely return.

    This place is such a gem and by far the best Thai in the area. Service is great and place is quaint, clean and you can have a conversation without yelling. Their take out counter is always busy. The food is fantastic, this is what we always get and it's always wonderful.

    I will forever be thankful for the chef and staff here. They're always attentive and even remember my order now. Lol The food is always amazing when I go for lunch. I always go for the pad see ew and add spices afterward. The spring roll, salad, and soup always a great start to a meal.

    This was the second time I've been to Pilin Thai. The first time was about 4 years ago when I lived close by. I also remember it not being very good back then, but sometimes I like to give places another chance. Unfortunately, the second time wasn't better and we probably won't be going back. It's not like anything terrible happened but overall it just wasn't good. The service is lackluster and the food always leaves something to be desired. My lady ordered her go-to favorite of Pad Thai with chicken (mild spice) and I order my favorite go-to Pad See Ew with beef (medium spice). Both dishes were very underwhelming and disappointing. The pad Thai came very red colored and overly sweet. My dish came bland and didn't have its normal pizazz. Both had no spice and the meats were not seasoned well at all. Just really disappointing in general, especially when you're paying $50 for lunch!

    Panang Curry
    Natesha G.

    I'm a huge fan of Panang curry and have been looking for a good spot in Orlando to replace my fav in Tampa but this version of the dish fell short for me it lacked flavor and did not taste as fresh. The service was quick but the food flavors seemed to have paid the price. I did not see much of the inside of the restaurant as I picked up a take out order

    I am vegetarian and ordered Fried tofu pineapple fried rice. It was amazing! The best I've ever had! Try this place out!

    Pad Thai with Chicken
    Mel Z.

    I have been coming here for years and it is always consistent and hits the spot when I am in the mood for Thai. The staff is nice, friendly, attentive and will answer any questions. They get busy during lunch hour due to many takeout orders, but the service as dine in, keeps steady. My go to's are Pad Thai, Red Curry, Pad Sew Ew, Yellow Curry and the Sunmer Rolls. Everything is always fresh, made to order, tasty and flavorful. If you are in the area, give them a try!

    Pad Thai Chicken
    Victoria S.

    I ordered from here on Doordash for lunch and got the Pad Thai with Chicken. They serve a good portion of food and it tasted pretty good. Their Pad Thai is more on the savory side but I prefer a sweeter/sour flavor profile. It didn't come with any lime or peanut topping unfortunately. The noodles had a good texture to them and weren't over cooked like most places. Had enough sauce to cover all the noodles and wasn't overly greasy or dry tasting. I would order from here again but maybe a different dish next time.

    Drunken noodles (glass)
    Kathy P.

    wow I am visiting from NJ and this restaurant is a hidden GEM. FOOD AMAZING!!!!!! We had drunken noodles, was amazing. Prices were great. We are going to order again tonight or go back. Our waitress ALEJANDRA, was a lovely, very intelligent young woman, she knows the food. We adored her lovely personality and service. She knows how to work the room. Komodo's to the chef. We will be back!!!!!!!!!XOXO The Cousins

I am a big fan of sushi and their sushi bowls are the next best thing to having 17 rolls of sushi all to myself. My usual go-to is the make your own sushi bowl.

Their menu boasts several options for bowls, noodles, sushi, rolls, and mac & cheese. Pretty much any comfort food you could want, they have. I'm always greeted when I come into this location. The staff are very friendly and are ready to help if you need it. Even though the staff seems to always be making to go orders, they always make time for the guest who are inside the store as well. While my local store is usually busy with online and to go orders, the staff make time to ensure that the inside of the store is clean and cozy for guess who want to dine in as well. I always find a nice place to sit, and I can have a good laugh at the skeletons that decorate the front of the store. The store and the skeletons always match whatever holiday season we might be in. It's a nice personal touch to a relatively commercial store. I recommend this Sus Hi to anyone looking for a tasty, reliable meal!

The eel was cooked perfectly and with just the right amount of eel sauce. Similarly, the pac-man roll perfectly balanced the sweet and savory flavors and I loved the addition of the cream cheese to this roll. Lastly, the volcano roll had more perfectly cooked shrimp tempura (I normally don't eat the ends but it was fried the best way possible) and balanced flavors.

We stopped by and found it to be a nice little spot with good value and a welcoming vibe. The truffle fries arrived looking impressive with a crispy exterior, but fell short on flavor. They tasted more like premium fries than truffle fries, which was a letdown given what we were expecting. That said, they're still a solid appetizer if you're hungry. The real draw here is the happy hour. Three sushi rolls for around $18 is a pretty solid deal, and we appreciated that the happy hour menu keeps things simple with rolls featuring just one or two ingredients. Nothing fancy, but executed well. The sushi itself was good, fresh, and satisfying without being exceptional. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service was not noticeable (which sometimes is a very good thing), making it an easy place to grab dinner with friends. Would I make a special trip? Probably not. But if a friend wanted to meet up nearby or I was already in the area, I'd definitely return.

The restaurant is very nice looking and seems to be clean. The decor is very fitting for this type of restaurant. Service was really good.

Mainly refilling my drink and taking away the food I could not eat. Didn't say anything to me really, but hey nothing really to say to me. The decor definitely needs an update. The ambiance there seems a bit dated. I could use a glow up for sure add a bit more lighting to it. Freshen the view up. Plus take down the printed signs in the dining room that discourage people from dining there. It paints the restaurant in a negative light and it is just tacky. They could of had a bad day with the food and truthfully I hope that's all it is. Another suggestion I would do is get rid of the buckets of ice cream and get a soft serve dispenser. That way you don't have all the people's hands reaching into the ice cream buckets. Again I haven't written the place up, but I do hope that they'll do some updates and fix the food.
