    Chicken satay app, and beef salad, both were really good.
    Cassie C.

    This place is so close to one of the places I work, so I finally went in to give it a try, and I am glad that I did. This place really epitomizes service with a smile I decided to have the beef salad and the chicken satay app. They were both excellent. The salad was really light and refreshing, and the satay was tender and flavorful. Definitely a great little spot.

    While in Pennsylvania, we decided to get Thai for lunch. We didn't dine in. The restaurant got our orders correctly, even with us ordering online. We made special or dietary orders by putting the special requests in the notes. Additionally, you could could a variety levels of hot. That was nice. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about the atmosphere since we didn't dine in, and I was the one who picked up the food. The food was good. I had green beans in my food. It wasn't mentioned on the online menu. I had to pick it out. They didn't put any soy sauce in our bags. But the sauce was plentiful and was enough to cover my rice. I would have enjoyed it more with some soy sauce. I would definitely eat there again if in Pennsylvania. I would love to dine in. Edit I have to take it back that my order was correct. After looking over the menu, I saw that I didn't get what I ordered. I was the only person who ordered food requesting, not carrots. I was supposed to get the dish that was in brown sauce. However, I got a dish in chili sauce with green beans. My food wasn't supposed to have green beans. The dish with chili paste does have green beans. I forgot to add that you can add a choice of protein to your order. I adder chicken.

    Ordered some Thai food during a work shift. It was ok. The place was very packed and service on delivery was quick. I felt like the dish was average. It was pretty dry (the chicken and noodles) but there was a hefty amount of noodles in the dish. They did add a bunch of crushed peanuts as well. I do wish they would have added more bean sprouts, scallions, and eggs.

    Pad Thai with tofu

    Quick, efficient, & friendly service. Food was served piping hot. Pad Thai & tofu were basic, nothing unique about it but still very good. Great lunch specials with reasonable prices & huge portions. BYOB

    Love the atmosphere

    My favorite Thai restaurant! Super friendly staff and love the space. Not to mention, the food is delicious. You won't be disappointed with the taste in every bite. I love spicy food and when I ask for spicy, they don't disappoint. I've pretty much brought everyone here and everyone comes out with a full happy belly. My go to is the papaya salad, tofu appetizer and the the drunken noodle!

    The food was great, good menu, and authentic Thai food. The service was quick and friendly. The restaurant isn't super fancy, but it's nice enough, and I really enjoyed the meal.

    Beautiful people. Their service is exceptional. And the food is on point We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary here. I stopped by earlier in the day to drop off my cake and they brought it out for desert with candles! If you are looking for quality Thai food in the Lehigh Valley, come here!

    Tom yum and Tom kha soup

    Yummy dishes with good spices and great service by the staff! Would come back again; we dropped by on the way home after stopping to fuel up at the Allentown Service Station.

When we arrived and saw that they were in a shopping mall, we were thinking about looking for somewhere else.... Boy I'm SO GLAD that we didn't! We arrived around 12:30 and they were packed - we were able to get a table outside (bar and inside dining area were too noisy for us)! Our server, Ariana O. was great! My wife enjoyed her Flamingo Fandango drink ($ 14.50) with the Torta Ahogada ($18.95) - both were delicious but the sandwich was very messy - better eaten with a knife and fork - and absolutely delicious as were their French fries that she had! I ordered the Beef "Cubano" sandwich ($ 17.95) with a side of golden beets ($ 2.00 up charge) glazed with the same horseradish sauce that was on the sandwich (Ariana's recommendation). Both were wonderful and we shared tastes of each other's items! It was worth the drive up and the impending drive back!!! We also shared a Dark Chocolate Custard pie that featured an Oreo type of crust with whipped cream and shaved dark chocolate as a topping - it tasted wonderful but I felt a little on the small size for the $ 12.95 price! All things considered, I would make the drive again to go back to experience the other items on the menu but as was suggested, I would definitely make a reservation for lunch and definitely would for dinner! FYI: their menu is seasonal so you want to view it online before you go!

    My coworkers and I were in Allentown for some meetings and booked a reservation here for dinner…read more Everyone was very impressed! We walked in and even though it was busy we were taken to our reserved table immediately. The place is big with nice decor and ambiance, and the tables are spaced out enough that it keeps the area around you quiet enough to be able to hold a conversation comfortably with the people at your table. Our server was with us quickly and took our drink orders. All of the cocktails were delicious and several of us got a second round! We got the bao buns, chicken skewers, and birria poutine to start and they were all extremely delicious. The poutine tasted more like molé though so I personally wouldn't call it birria, and the cheese was a molten cheddar-like kind and not cheese curds. It was delicious though so no one complained! I got the curry and subbed tofu for shrimp. It was a little bland and I honestly wish there would've been a bit more of the curry itself (there was so much rice) and some more salt/seasoning, but it was fine. I'd give it a 7.5/10. My coworkers all enjoyed their own dishes (especially the rigatoni) and they kept raving about them throughout the whole meal. Our server was attentive and kept the table clean and our water bottles topped up. I definitely recommend checking it out! We're keeping it i. our list for next time we're in town :)

    So let's start by saying the majority of the 3 stars is because for me this dish was mostly…read moreinedible for me. I ordered the Korean Bbq Pork bowl. This traditionally comes with purple rice, napa cabbage, kimchi, cucumbers, spicy broccoli, carrots, spicy sprouts, fried egg, slow-roasted pork and Korean BBQ sauce. I struggle when a dish has too many spicy ingredients and specially kimchi is just too much for me to be able to handle. I requested the kimchi on the side so I could try the dish as it was meant to be tasted but without the commitment of having all that spice in my bowl. They did provide kimchi on the side but what I did not realize was that there was kimchi covering the rice under the other layers. The heat was just too much for me and I was unable to eat the majority of the dish. That being said, what I could eat was delicious. Grains cooked to perfection and tossed in the bbq sauce. Broccoli that was crunchy and had the slightest kick. And tender and juicy pulled pork. If you like the heat, this is a good one. And if you are like me and a bit more sensitive, keep a close eye on the dish as they make it. The place is your run of the mill chain restaurant, nothing fancy and very casual. Service is at the counter much like a chipotle or subway. The restaurant was generally clean with a few dirty tables. The highlight for me was the lemonade/drink bar. Fresh juices and lemonades with unexpected ingredients like cardamom and red beets. I will definitely be going back and giving this place a second chance in the future.

    All-natural and fresh food is hard to beat when it's but together so well!…read more CoreLife offers a variety of dishes (and great beverages) from a large menu.

I started off with their spinach pie. It was what I would describe as a roll studded with sauteed spinach and onions and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. When asking the waitress, I asked if it would be similar to spanakopita, she said it was, but the heavy doughy bread was not really what I had hoped for or expected. Was it good, yes. Would I order it again, no. For my main I went with the Lamb Kebab in Pita. Grilled lamb, lettuce, tomato, parsley, onions, and a light hummus spread. The lamb was a little chewy but the flavors of the fresh vegetables and the seasoned lamb blended well together. I am not always the biggest fan of hummus and find that it tends to be too gritty for my texture pallet. However, this spread was mixed with a creamy sauce of some kind that really brought out the flavor without that grittiness that you sometimes find in hummus. The food came out fast, from the time we sat down till we finished our food it was just under an hour. So overall a good experience. When it came time to pay, we never received an itemized bill, we were just given a total. Later on, doing the math, we found that for the two bills at our table, both were considerably different than the prices listed on the menu, even after adding on the standard 6% tax. Based on the differences, we can only assume that the prices listed on the menu and website are no longer the actual price of the meal. Or, both our bills just happened to be messed up. We can't really say. But that alone for me changed this from a 5 star experience to a 3. The Grill is listed as a 5.2 currently on my Beli, and again, for me I do not like transparency on pricing or total charges but the food itself and the ambiance is a really nice experience.
