    Pad Se Eu
    Beth W.

    We came here hungry after our flight to Florida and we walked away very satisfied. I tried the spicy basil noodles for something different and it was great. The flavor was good and it wasn't too spicy. My husband and daughter both did their favorite Pad Thai and Pad Se Ew which was delicious. We also ordered a Green Curry with chicken so my daughter could give a curry dish a try. She loved the different flavor and was glad to have given it a try. The service was a bit slow and we recognize we were there for a late lunch so they may not have been fully staffed. The ambiance of the restaurant was a bit tired. Darker in lighting as well as the decor. They offer a sushi special that would be worth trying some time. I don't believe it is offered during lunch.

    Veggie spring rolls with raspberry sauce

    I'll be back. I love that they offer both sushi and Thai menus. Very large restaurant can seat many people. The raw tuna and raw salmon nigiri were fresh and good quality. I also like the taste of their sushi rice, ginger and strong wasabi. Those are my go-to foods, so I will surely order them again. I enjoyed the "side salad" with ginger dressing which wasn't mentioned on the menu. Iceberg lettuce, tomato and crisp carrot slivers. The dressing was thin, off white and tasted like soy sauce was one of the ingredients. Not my favorite dressing but not bad either. The veggie spring roll appetizer from the Thai menu was a larger portion than I expected, so I wasn't able to finish them. They were tasty, but the raspberry sauce was thin and lacked flavor. You can't get me to order fried food unless it's exceptional, or it isn't worth the calories.

    Very pleasant environment.. service is great.. and food is excellent.. always come back to it..

    Very bland and watery green curry sauce with no color because they used very little green curry paste
    Freaker D.

    The Tom Kha soup had absolutely no galangal flavor in it and had no discernible taste of lemongrass or even fish sauce. The main ingredient that you could taste was the salt! When the green curry shrimp arrived, the sauce looked very watery and had almost no green color to it. It was completely tasteless. Even the Thai iced coffee was not good. This might be the worst Thai food I've had in over 20 years. Obviously obviously the chef is not tasting their own food that they're sending out because it is completely bland!

    This is the highest rated Thai restaurant in the area so we gave it a try. The ratings are right!…read moreAll the food was fantastic. My dad ordered a tom yum chicken soup and it was a nice sized bowl with lots of chicken and veggies. The spring roll appetizer was tasty and crisp. Star of the evening was the outstanding jungle curry, at Thai spicy level. A ton of fresh veggies and chicken, delicious sauce, powerful but not brutal heat, and some much needed rice on the side to temper the flames. Service was polite and prompt, and the dining room is lovely. Will definitely return.

    This is a neat little Thai place…read more I came for the Crispy Duck. I LOVE crispy duck. I saw online that they have the crispy duck soup & thought I would see if they make the whole duck/on the bone, not just a duck breast. I love the crispy duck but I like it on the bone, they usually give you half a duck so you get a mixture of duck, leg/thigh meat dark & breast meat, the flavors are better with the duck on the bone with the light & dark duck meats. Anyhoo, they didn't have Red Curry Crispy duck on the menu but they were so kind as to make it for me. They told me they make it on the bone, they just cut it off the bone before serving. This sounded reasonable & I have to have my Crispy Duck fix, so Presto! Like magic, soon, a lovely lunch plate of Red Curry Crispy Duck, cut off the bone, was indeed presented to me OuiOui. I was also brought a side salad & crispy veggie egg roll. The salad was super fresh, but I didn't like the dressing. It was way too sweet, pooled into the bottom of the cup. Next time I will ask for no dressing. The egg roll was perfectly cooked, however it was served cold/room temperature. Would have been better served hot or at least warm. I'm very pleased that I have found a crispy duck dish that has light & dark duck meats. Not just a duck breast. The crispy duck here was also cooked beautifully. I asked for it Thai HOT & my nose was running. It was a perfect Thai Hot for Moi OuiOui. I noticed a lot of Door Dash & take out coming & going. Some ladies were chatting while waiting & they were all talking about how good the crispy duck is here OuiOui. Agreed. The Crispy Duck here is very good. I'm so glad they cook the whole duck on the bone, I know for a fact they do bc I got a tiny piece of it on my plate :( I'm not happy I got the tiny piece of bone on my lunch plate, but I'm very happy that you cook the whole duck. It's unfortunate I got a piece of bone, but the dish is delicious. I also loved the artistic way the veggies were cut in the dish, they were cooked perfectly al dente, the rice was also fabulous & the Red Curry was a very lovely Thai HOT. The prices are also very reasonable. To the Chef: Thank you for making me the Red Curry Crispy Duck. It was delicious. I prefer it served whole, on the bone, however, if you're going to serve it cut OFF the bone "boneless" it must be indeed boneless. I had a piece of bone on my plate. (See photos) I hope that you can be more careful with the tiny bones in the future, as I would love to explore the rest of your menu & try the Red Curry Duck again in the future. Will Return to update.

    This is a super cute little Thai place with a sushi bar…read more There aren't many sushi dishes on the menu but enough if you just want a simple roll, sashimi or tempura, which is moi fave. It's mainly a Thai place thou with lovely Thai vibes. I love that it's super cute with awesome Thai vibes. It has a very cute little patio facing the water fountain outside which is super cool. The ladies room is also spectacular with travertine walls & a marble floor, tre chic with great ambiance OuiOui. I got the soft shell crab & tuna Tataki. The soft shell crab was cooked perfectly. I would come back just for it OuiOui. However, the tuna Tataki was also fabulous. Super fresh sushi grade tuna, Lightly Seared with a tiny salad under. It was served with wasabi ginger lemon in a lovely ponzu sauce. I loved the way they served it here it wasn't sweet at all. Would def order both again. Moi only complaint is, they have the crispy duck here in Red curry, but it doesn't come with the duck on the bone, it's a boneless dish or I would have ordered it. I like the crispy half duck in Red curry on the bones. Would love to try some more dishes in the future thou. As I was leaving the Chef made me some cute little tiny doughnuts with a white glaze. So cute & so delicious. A very sweet jester, making an even sweeter ending to a fabulously perfect lunch. OuiOui. Adding to moi "fave restaurants in the Tampa Area" list. OuiOui. Will Return.

    So disappointment…read more.. I came here with my child for the lunch special and ordered takeout. I ordered #5 from the lunch specials menu, which listed: salad, 3 pieces of sushi (tuna, salmon, and white fish), 4 pieces of California roll, pot stickers, and dessert. Since I'm deaf, communication can sometimes be challenging. When I got home and checked the bag, the salad and dessert were missing. I later sent my hearing partner back to the restaurant to ask about the missing items, but they still refused to provide them and said those items were only for dine-in. I wish the menu had clearly stated that the salad and dessert were dine-in only. It wasn't mentioned when I ordered. I paid $14.99 expecting the full lunch special, so it felt unfair and confusing. Clear communication on the menu would really help customers in the future. PS, I even tipped $3 in bowl on the front desk.

    Stopped to have a nice dinner at this nice little Thai restaurant in Clearwater. I've been here…read moremany times in the past and as always, the food and service were very good. The vegetable soup that I started with had great flavor, but unfortunately, the vegetables were slightly undercooked. They had a little bit more of a crunch than I would have liked, but it was still a solid choice. One entrée we had was scallops in green curry. This was a really nice dish. Everything was well cooked, the curry was delicious and the scallops were enjoyable. The other entrée was shrimp in Panang curry. That dish was nothing short of outstanding. This was a solid 4 1/2 stars, only the little missed step in the vegetable soup kept it from being five stars. I've never had a bad meal in all the years I've been coming here. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the sushi that is available. We didn't have any tonight, but normally we do. The restaurant is small, but it is well maintained..
