Really good noodle dishes at this family-operated carry-out spot, plus fast and friendly service at…read more reasonable prices. The location is definitely odd: it's in the food court of a semi-deserted shopping mall at the south end of downtown Mason City, so you either eat at one of the tables there or take the food home. But the menu is extensive enough to offer something for everyone, and the people who run the place work very hard to deliver a quality meal. Mason City is lucky to have a spot like this for authentic Asian food. I hope the business is successful enough that they can move to a less strange venue -- it did seem pretty busy the afternoon I was there, so apparently the locals have begun to appreciate what they've got.

Had a wonderful lunch at the Thai Bistro today…read more Our server was quiet yet polite, very knowledgable of the menu (was able to assist with a friend who has food allergies). For a midday Wednesday, in Mason City, we were the only customers. While this was the case, the restaurant itself had music set at a decent conversational level, the restaurant was clean and prepped for any rush of service, and it didn't feel as if the server was avoiding our table or checking in too frequently. The food came out looking professional, and was delicious! I personally love how there were five levels of heat provided for those looking for spicer meals. If you're looking for a filling and quick lunch in Mason City, I highly recommend the Level 3 Chicken Fried Rice with a California roll on the side!

Ginger Thai Cuisine is a small spot that might be missed as it's not on Main St. but don't get it…read morewrong, Ginger Thai Cuisine has food that can compete with all the major players there.

I really wish I could've tried it.

There was really no chicken in the dish. It was just a bunch of fried crispy things. I kept trying to find chicken and what I did chew on was not chicken. I truly tried to bite into something with chicken. But I had to spit it back out because I couldn't chew it up. I called the restaurant and spoke to the owner about it.

I ordered the regular, which came in a deep bowl but it wasn't filled so it's kind of a waste of space. However, it was very filling; I ate half and saved the rest for later. It was a good dish. Their online allergen guide graciously informs which items are vegan and/or gluten-free, as well what needs to be modified to make it so. The guide told me to remove the peanuts from the Thai Stir Fry dish to make it vegan. I don't know what they do to the nuts (butter maybe??) to make them non vegan. If this were in any other city I'd rate it a 3, but because it's Mason City, and the options are limited, they get brownie points. I would return.

There is really not much to it -- I'm a HuHot lover through and through…read more I don't think I could be a bigger fan of this restaurant model. There is nothing that gets me quite as excited as piling up heaping bowls of meat, noodles, and veggies and cooking them with the HuHot sauces/oils. I've never left a HuHot location unsatisfied and the Cedar Falls location was no exception. Service and ambiance are always great, and I'm lucky that I'm accompanied by the best company whenever I come here. Lots of memories and great conversations had in the booths of this restaurant!

We do love Hu Hot. Our servers have been really good the many, many times we have been there with…read moreour kids and grandkids! Tonight we actually had an exception. I will preface this with the fact we found out it was her 3rd shift as a hostess/ server here. Grace and understanding applied for that...and they saved a star by the way they removed us from her server duties and spent time going over the SHOULD HAVE BEEN 'non-issue' she had turned into an awkward situation for all. I have family in town from out of state visiting us as I am battling inoperable stage 4 cancer. We recommend Hu Hot saying they are always good! Our servers have always been fast and friendly! Our server came and she introduced the process and 'one bowl' rule to our visitors. (All in late 70's and 84 yrs old and never been to a Hu Hot) I have never had them push that ONE BOWL rule except on the sign. But...ok. Asked about drinks and I asked for a bowl of lemon wedges for all the waters then ordered drinks. My aunt opted for just water, I ordered an ice tea, wife ordered a lemonade then my uncle said, very clearly, "ice tea please" and my aunt said "me too, I will have the ice tea". All 5 of us were very clear on what was ordered. She dropped off 1 ice tea, 1 lemonade and 3 waters and the lemon slices. We noticed 2 missing ice teas NO BIG DEAL! EASY FIX! and I told my wife we would just flag her down. A different server came by and I asked for the 2 missing ice teas. He said "Sure! I will let your server know". The original server came back and set down 3 ice teas on the end of the table and said "Here's the 3 ice teas but you said 3 waters! But I will replace them anyways". Very rude tone! Our jaws actually dropped and 3 of 5 of us all spoke up and said "nobody ordered 3 waters and we all heard ice teas. She walked off in a 'whatever' manner and we all stared at each other in a bit of shock. Really!!! Mad at us because she messed up the order we all heard?? Wife went up to the same server at the bar to make sure we weren't charged for the 4th tea and explain that we ordered what we wanted...in a very calm tone. Server said "I don't like the way your talking to me and am getting a Manager! Mind blown again. The assistant Mgr came out and had a good , calm, intelligent talk at the table (learned it was her 3rd shift) and they made adjustments in the staff to get us a server we could talk to who did a great job. The food, (good as always)second server and assistant mgr earned the 3 stars. Really do NOT know what this young lady is going through in life...plus a new job...so Grace and possible extenuating circumstances mindset applied. I do hope it's not as bad as inoperable stage IV terminal cancer. . Even fighting THAT, I can't be that intolerably rude. We do pray she finds a peace that allows her to answer a Mis-heard order with a "Sorry about that! I'll be right back with your _______ ." Or something friendly like that! We will adjust our statement made while suggesting Hu Hot to my family and friends in the future to saying "The food is always good and the service is ALMOST always fast and friendly". Thanks assistant mgr and Hu Hot staff that worked through this SHOULD HAVE BEEN "non-issue". We will be back! Just really careful on server selection! God Bless! I do hope the server finds a silver lining in this situation.
