    Steak pad thai
    Mark D.

    Called and made an order for pickup so I obviously had to go the restaurant to grab it. The interior of the restaurant is very nice. Also has a nice patio for people to sit outside when the weather is warmer. Staff was very nice during my brief time there. Ordered the steak pad thai... the cost... $26! Now I've paid more than that for entrees before with no problem, but I thought this was a misprint. $26 for pad Thai?! Wasn't a misprint, paid $70 for a takeout order for 2 entrees (my pad Thai & one for my wife) and an appetizer. So my review of the food is based off the entree of pad Thai vs the cost they charge. It wasn't worth it. Didn't come with nearly enough steak for the price point. There's other options around for pad Thai that you can get for almost half the price, and taste the same. The pricing doesn't make sense to me... we all know if we order something off uber eats vs from a restaurant, it's cheaper when getting it directly from the restaurant. For here if you get a regular pad Thai entree, their menu says $21. On uber eats, $16. The juice isn't worth the squeeze to me.

    The service was great and the location was clean and orderly, with minimal noise disruption. The food however was mediocre. Portions were not as large for the price paid as one may expect, and an order of shrimp pad Thai arrived with some of the shrimp cold.

    I was passing through Burlington on my way to Pennsylvania, and decided to stop for the night... of course, I was hungry because I had been on the motorcycle for the past 10 hours or so. I also knew I needed something that was not plain-jane American fare, since the next couple of days was certainly going to be food of that nature and my stomach can only take so much lasagna style food. The hotel I was staying at was no use... they just recommended the local chain restaurants within walking distance, so it was up to Yelp to help me out with something a bit more exotic. Thankfully they had Simply Thai on the list of places, and that is where I went, despite having to traipse halfway across town to get there. Entering the premises is a bit odd, as I had to enter through the patio on the side, but no matter... I was greeted and seated in a short amount of time, and I had my order in promptly. I always get a surprised look when I order the spiciest you can manage with a curry, but I knew that in the middle of North Carolina I would need to order the maximum to have a chance at having any real spice. I was right... in my book it was about a medium, and I had to ask for the house chili sauce to kick it up a notch. The curry was good, despite my wishes that it be twice as spicy as it was. I also ordered the tom yum soup, which is an interest of mine because it seems that every restaurant that has it on the menu has their own little twist to it, so seeing how that plays out is always fun. In addition, I got some summer rolls as a starter because they always go down well. I really enjoyed this meal, and I went back to my hotel with a sated stomach that was now prepared to handle the blandness of the next couple of days.

    Lunch at Simply Thai Pad See-Eew I had asked for broccoli to be added.

    2-18-24 Lunch at Simply Thai I ordered my lunch and had to ask for chop sticks twice. My server gave me some push back when I asked for broccoli to be added to my dish. She said it comes with enough vegetables! When my meal came the broccoli was stone cold! I paid extra for. My lunch was $20 dollars! I'm just posting as lunches out are now expensive. Don't waste your money or time going here!! I will not go back!

    Simply Thai is our sushi "old faithful" here in Alamance County. We always like to make reservations on the weekend, just in case they are overly busy. That way we don't have to wait for a table. We wanted to go out for date night and I was craving sushi, so Simply Thai was where we ended up. We went on a Friday night, and were seated promptly in an oversized booth, which was pretty nice. The actual interior of the restaurant is pretty small, but they have done a good job making it look nice. Our server's name was Austin, and he was just phenomenal. He didn't ignore us, but didn't worry us to death either by announcing every single thing that he was doing (i.e. "I'm going to top off your water"....my pet peeve). He had a very nice ability to read the table and anticipate our needs without asking us a million questions. More servers should have this skill. We come here fairly regularly, so we generally have a good idea what we want. For starters, we ordered the money bags and the Oh Baby shots. They are both super good, but I'm telling you now that the Oh Baby shots (it's a sushi roll) is a must order when you come here! We literally order it Every. Single. Time., and it never disappoints. The money bags are like little crab rangoons but they are shaped like tiny bite sized bags of gold. They come with a sweet dipping sauce. We enjoy ordering them. For the mains, I ordered the Golden Dragon Roll, and my husband ordered the Simp Roll (I failed to get the picture before he dug in....the presentation is much better than the picture reflects!). We both tried new rolls that we haven't had before, and both agreed that they were very good and the we would order them again. Bottom Line: Really good sushi, great service, nice atmosphere. Simply Thai maintains its long term spot on our list as one of the solid local restaurants here.

    Pad See-Eew
    Melody B.

    A hole in the wall place, but doesn't feel like it once you're inside. The Hawaiian Tropic Roll was average. I expected better for the price, but wow...the Pad See-Eww (with shrimp) blew me away. The noodles melted in my mouth and is why I'm giving this restaurant 5 stars for that alone. I don't think of Burlington/Elon area as popping with amazing local restaurants, but this is a must eat at place. Service was great too and they always refilled my water.

    Food was better today than last time but I do think it's very overpriced for the portions. Friendly service and they still have you going in the side door which is a hike for disabled patrons who have to park on the opposite side of the plaza. Their schedule is confusing. Every portal shows a different opening time. Google says 5 and Apple says 4. It says 5 on Yelp and their website says nothing. The online ordering on their site says 5 but they opened today at 4. Who knows. I hope they figure it out because I will never know to make plans for 4 if they're open then.

    Vegetables, brown rice, and 14 hands Merlot. Delicious combination.

    The inside was very loud so we sat outside. Beautiful setting. Pleasant service and good food.

    Very slow service. No A/C took 45 mins to get 3 sushi rolls. And only a handful of tables. Was also told they only had 1 cook today.

    Waited for an hour and a half for some half decent, overpriced ginger chicken. Server was extremely sullen as well. Go to red bowl instead.

    Once again, I listened to my boyfriend where to get some delicious Vietnamese food…read more I came to Victorious Pho Bar. This time I didn't get the pho. While looking over the menu one side of the menu is Vietnamese food and the other Thai food. I made the decision to get a little of both options. My appetizer I ordered the shrimp spring rolls and for my meal I ordered the vegan Pad Thai with hot Jasmine tea. I receive my Tea and Spring rolls simultaneously. My tea is piping hot and my shrimp spring roll giant and looks so fresh. My service was great you walk in and the waitress will tell you to sit anywhere you like. The restaurant definitely gives sports bar vibe with the decor. My food was amazing. The shrimp spring roll was delicious the veggies super fresh and crispy and the shrimp cooked perfectly and they give sweet chili sauce as the dipping sauce. My vegan Pad Thai was equally as yummy. It's was so flavorful I did feel that my broccoli was way overcooked and hardly any cabbage either. The veggies you get it broccoli, cabbage, carrots, green onion and bean sprouts. Nevertheless the flavor was there noodle were cooked just right. My boyfriend got it right this time and I will definitely be back. I want to try their red curry next time.

    For the area, this is a good find. In a strip mall, it's kind of understated. Welcomed by…read morestaff, simple menu. We started with shrimp and veggie spring rolls. Very fresh ... nicely done. I had Beef Pho, they had several protein choices. Good sized bowl, steamy hot. All the extras you would want were provided. Zero complaints and was a welcome change to the regular options in the area. This was a lunch visit, but could tell it transforms to a bar at night. If you're looking for something other than the regular slapped between bread offerings... give it a shot. They also of other regular options like Pad Thai which I'll have to come back for
