    Ginger Chicken
    Dan J.

    Great food and the closest Thai to my house- a plus. Fast service in an casual setting We get take out here often.

    Chicken Phad Thai

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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

    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!

    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 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.

On one hand,…read moreI want to keep the secret for myself so the place stays exactly as it is forever and never changes; on the other hand, I want to shout about its greatness from the rooftops so even more people can realize and appreciate it. Sakura House is great through and through in my opinion. I've had several very different menu items and have never been disappointed (my current go-to being the Chicken Katsu Bento, but the General Tso's is their shining star). The food is quick and affordable, yet honest and consistently delicious. The staff is made up of kind, hard-working people who really know their stuff. The place itself is small- not great for a large group, but a sweet, intimate experience for 4 or less. In a world where affordability *and* good quality are increasingly hard to come by at once, Sakura House is there to remind me that not all hope is lost :)

Their rice is absolutely spectacular and the sushi is consistently delicious every single time we dine here. It is a tiny littler place with not much seating and maybe that's why they aren't busting out of their seams with patrons. Be that as it may, they hit the bullseye on every dish we have ever ordered. It's by far our favorite place for Asian cuisine. Shhhh, don't tell everyone but give this place a try and you won't be disappointed, I promise.

But it's there, overlooking the lake, waiting to offer you delicious sushi. The staff are always very nice, helpful, and patient as you look through the menu. With a huge selection of fish and veggie combinations, the menu has something for everyone. (I'm sorry I don't have a menu picture for reference!) The ingredients are always fresh and the rolls are made in house, to order. I have never had a bad roll - or a bad meal. While the seating can be cramped with a full house, the views make up for that easily. If you manage to get a seat in the back, you can look out over the lake (which absolutely has gators because I saw one on my last afternoon visit.) There are booths, tables, and a large sushi bar - again, something for everyone! I highly recommend checking this spot out if you are a sushi lover like me. (But also, don't, because I still want to be able to get a seat there when I go!)

My only complaints would be that the music is a little loud, and with the restaurant being packed, there doesn't seem to be much acoustical treatment to help with the noise, so it can get a bit overwhelming.

This place is definitely made for people who eat with their eyes first. The hanging flowers, greenery, moody lighting and gorgeous decor will have you taking tons of photos before you even look at the menu. We started with drinks. I got the Amor y Vida and it was as pretty as it was delicious. The tajin rim gave a nice kick to this sweet drink. I need to come back and try more of their uniquely presented drinks. For food we started with chips and salsa. Give me chips in a flowerpot and suddenly I am fancy. Then we ordered the Tostones and Plantain Roll with Salmon. Just a heads up, do not order any additional meat or seafood with the Tostones. This dish is fabulous on it's own. The Plantain Roll was an unexpected combination that my tastebuds thoroughly enjoyed. It was definitely not your typical sushi roll. We sat at the bar and our bartender took great care of us. Between the environment, creative menu and friendly service, this was definitely a fun experience. I would suggest you come hungry, but make sure your phone is charged because at this spot, the camera most certainly eats first.

The fish did not taste fresh to me this time. Even at the hot food portion the broccoli in the broccoli and chicken was inedible. The service was great though. They were very attentive to my needs. 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.

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. Plates were cleared quickly and drinks were always refilled when needed. Food was really good! My negatives are few, but they're nothing big. By husband said some of the buffet items were not hot, but they seemed to be refilling and swapping out food regularly, so he figured it was just bad timing in his part. Very happy with the wontons. The hibachi was good, especially after learning how it works. However, it is a small grill and the cook was loading too much on, or couldn't keep track of the food. My second helping ended up on a plate mixed with someone else's food. I didn't have any meat and he had like 3 types of meat, so I was not interested in it. We will definitely be back. The Crazy Asian buffet/hibachi had been our go to, but it just changed to this restaurant!
