A group of three of us dined in on a Saturday evening. We came in around 545 and it was pretty…read morebusy. We didn't wait too long to be seated - which was deceiving for the rest of our experience. We ordered a couple of apps, thai teas and entrees. The apps were forgettable with not a lot of flavor. The ratio of tea to cream left my friend disappointed. Overall the entrees were much better but flagging our waitstaff to order and for water refills was tiresome. There appeared to be one person taking orders and one person bussing. This was insufficient for a busy evening and we recognize that this happens but it didn't appear that this wasn't the norm based on the waitresses behavior. All in all this establishment may be better suited for a take out order when I'm visiting friends in the area vs dining in.

We have been coming here for dinner for several years. It is always excellent! One of the things I…read morelove is they have dishes you don't necessarily find at other Thai restaurants. This time I had Mus Su Mun Curry and it was great! I wasn't familiar with the dish. It was a wonderful curry that was both a bit sweet and spicy (heat). I added shrimp and scallops to mine. The staff are very helpful with the menu. And the food is always timely. If you are going for dinner, especially on the weekend, I would make reservations. They can get quite busy and the restaurant is not that big. They do have a full bar if you do have to wait.

The heat is layered and intentional, and even the small detail of the hot pepper garden behind the restaurant adds to the sense that the kitchen genuinely cares about its craft.

This spot is not much for ambience inside or outside but on the day of my visit they had brisk takeout and the dining room was packed...real quick. I'm sure a lot of folks go here for the Chinese menu items but I was there for the Lao goodies! They did not disappoint! We had the fried meat balls; a mixed app plate with chicken wings, Lao sausage, and beef jerky; lap beef; and a healthy serving of sticky rice (ok maybe we had 2 to sop up the lap beef). Flavors were on point. Medium spice had us excited and rolling at the same time as it got spicier throughout the meal for the lap...but it was so good! I can't wait to go back and try more! Service was friendly and attentive. Parking was easy since they have their own lot.

Spring rolls were solid, egg rolls were pretty good, and the Laos-style jerky was a unique highlight with great flavor.

The Pad Phet was something totally new for me -- the crunch and lime really stood out in a great way. Lastly, the Lao fried noodles were tasty and satisfying. Overall, a great meal with lots of dishes worth coming back for.

I hope this is taken seriously so other customers do not have the same experience. Bad for business in Burbank. Rudeness doesn't pay off.

Very casual spot where you seat yourself in the restaurant of about 9-10 tables. We were waiting on quickly and the food looked great once but came out . I ordered the mango chicken as I've never seen on menu before and was not disappointed. Crispy and saucy which is exactly how I like it . Sauce flavor was a delight and it came with white rice which i upgraded to fried rice . Hubby got crab pad Thai and he really enjoyed it. He was pleased that it was real crab as well. He did ask for chili as he likes to add spice to everything. The appetizer crab Rangoon was on point as well and then we finished with mango sticky rice . My favorite dessert when available which was a tasty ending to a great meal. I'd definitely go back to try more dishes .

Chopsticks Noodle & Thai Cafe is in an unassuming location in a strip mall. Here the major difference is it's not some order at the counter type of place. There's a pretty big menu of meaty and vegetarian friendly choices with varying levels of spiciness. A not quite fancy restaurant but better than the others around here with this type of cuisine. It's got enough room for plenty of booths and tables. The menu features a lot of the typical favorites like noodles, rice, and whatever. A lot of the entrees have a choice of protein. They of course have beef and chicken, but also tofu. It's about $12 for an entree. We got some of the choices for vegetarians. I got the Cashew Stir-Fried. This had carrots, onions, peas, peppers, and pineapple, and the choice of protein was tofu. Good spiciness without being burning ass hot. The rest of the menu has a pretty good variety of things. Certainly could get lunch from here again. It's located on Route 59 at Ogden. There's plenty of choices for both meat eaters and vegetarians.

The drinks at the bar are always so good, with complementing and light flavors that deceptively cloy the taste of alcohol, which is surprising because they are strong. We had the Love Island and I forgot the name of the second drink, but it had strawberries with a light spiciness at the end, and they were delicious. For apps we always go with our favorites: Mai's Eggrolls, Sach Ko Ja Kak (Steak skewers), and Sach Morn Ampil (Lemongrass & Tamarind fried wings). When I see ANY of these items on the menu, I don't hesitate to order ESPECIALLY the wings.... crispy whole wings and that sauce is to die for! On to the entrees! - First up was the Sach Ko Ang, which are beef ribs of Flinstones proportions that have been braised for 10 hours.... Let me tell you, the meat is fall off of the bone with crispy end bits, and the sauce was also soooo good. Don't let me lie, we were slightly intimidated when they came out, but all reservations were gone once we dug in, and asked for extra napkins (you'll need them, lol). We also had the Sach Chrouk Ampil (pork ribs), which were tender, but also with an extra crispy bite and a sauce that is sweet and spicy. We also tried one of the soups, Somlor Machu, that contained chicken, shrimp, and veggies in a light but highly flavorful broth. Dessert came around, and we got to try a hand-whipped Ube mousse, a durian brownie, and a sweet black-eyed pea dessert. Do not let me lie, that black eyed pea dish was REALLY good, and I kept going back for more, but my absolute favorite was the Ube mousse. Good flavor without being crazy oversweet, and super creamy. We also enjoyed the Durian brownie, which is not a mix I thought would go together, but surprisingly complemented one another beautifully. As always the ambiance is great, and the wait staff are very knowledgeable, kind, patient, and helpful. Chef Mona is always a treat to see, and makes sure that all of her patrons leave full and happy with a smile on their faces. Khmai is always a special and welcoming restaurant with a menu that rotates, and does a phenomenal job at showcasing the bold and funky flavors of Cambodian food!

This is the first time I've had Cambodian food, and I'm glad to try it out…read more Kroeung is in a lot of dishes and is a foundational herb with spices like Lemongrass, galangal, tumeric, garlic. The dishes we tried had similar notes to other SE Asian delicacies but a little different flavor profiles and styles. It was a little funky with the fermented fish paste but in a good way. The Trei Chien- fried red snapper was awesome. The market price we paid was $45 and was tasty with the mango salad and fresh herbs. The Katang was almost like a Thai Pad Sie Iew with the wide noodles. I craved a bit of spice with it. The Amok Tawhou was like a curried tofu, the little bamboo box it came in was cute. I enjoyed the Kapi Ktiss with rice instead of just the raw veg to cut the saltiness of the fermented paste. Service was a bit slow and the main server seemed a little over whelmed. But overall it was a good experience and I'm glad we went.

We ordered the same soup the small eye round steak Pho soup. They give you a little plate of garnish on the side there were bean sprouts, jalapeno slices, Basil on the stems, and limes. The soup itself had the meat and green onions diced in the broth. The soup was hot but not too hot to eat temperature-wise. Our waitress was really nice but it took her at least 10 minutes to wait on us. There was a lot of people dining in tonight. The restaurant's very clean and there's plenty of seating. The restaurant is always comfortable not too hot not too cold. I highly recommend you come here and give it a try. They have several different soup options, noodle dinners, appetizees, and sandwiches. They even have lunch specials Monday through Friday (non-holidays). My husband really likes the bubble teas. Will be coming again soon.

I ordered the special pho (#19), which comes with thinly sliced rare steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, cilantro, and onions. I also got the BBQ pork banh mi. The pho was pretty solid. However, I was disappointed with the banh mi. It looked quite different from the menu photo, which, of course, I understand that menu items are created to look their best and don't always come out the same, but this sandwich ended up looking more like a carrot sandwich, and I'm not a fan of carrots. There was only a thin slice of BBQ pork, and the bread was too doughy. The proportions felt off overall, and it was honestly my least favorite banh mi I've tried. I took a bite and ended up giving the rest to a friend who took it home. If I'm in the area, I'd come back for the pho.
