    A3. Summer Rolls with Shrimp

    This was by far the most authentic Thai restaurant I have experienced in a long time. Absolutely delicious

    V1. Spicy Tofu
    John B.

    The first time I came to this place I sat down and wasn't served immediately but they gave me a table and asked me to wait, and I took some telework to that table. They never got to me and eventually I decided I wasn't hungry and left. Not great. But they were doing vigorous takeout business during that time, so when I had a need I ordered takeout from them well in advance and it was ready. They offer a few vegetarian dishes, and I took a spicy tofu stir fry and a thicker curry as well as some spring rolls. I got a decent amount of actual tofu. I was a little bit peeved at the broccoli showing up in my curry that wasn't listed on the menu. The rice wasn't quite enough for the saucy dishes, and I do like the aromatic jasmine rice. Overall, though, the flavors were solid, the spicy dish was spicy. Given that I came due to a craving for Thai that my last restaurant experience let me down on, I could at least say the food here was A-OK, in Yelp terms. Sometimes, that's good enough.

    Bright orange pad Thai?  The chicken was bright orange too.

    I'm a Thai food lover..It is by far one of my favorites. I ordered Shrimp green curry and that was fairly good. My partner got his usual, pad Thai with chicken. He asked for it spicy. We also ordered chicken satay. My partner loves that. We never received it. Instead they gave two orders of pad Thai.. not spicy. We did a phone call in order. I went over everything three times. It was a Saturday afternoon, after 3 pm but before 6pm. I ran in to pick it up, but did not check the bag. When we got home there was no chicken satay, but two very bright orange meals?? And my shrimp green curry. I figured it out that it was a dyed orange pad Thai. I say dyed as the chicken that was bright orange too. My partner lost his appetite. He would not eat it. Felt bad for him. I ate only a few bites of the orange noodle,.. it tasted like pad Thai~~ but was not spicy. We were both put off by the orange dye . I had an event after.. we just threw it away.. both orders. I did not call back as I was very clear on the phone, so if the man did not understand me then, why would he after? Why did they dye the food like that? Why was the chicken orange too? We like Thai as it is usually very fresh and clean in taste. My dear friend is from Thailand too. I've been eating Thai for 30 years, and I have never seen dyed bright orange food before. Too bad, as I adore Thai food. Ok a picture is worth one thousand words... put on your sunglasses.

    The very bright signs in the window of the restaurant.

    This small restaurant in the heart of Downtown Roanoke is one that I've always wanted to visit and this evening I dedecided to ignore the cold and windy weather outside and go try it out. When I arrived at the restaurant it was already dark outside due to the change of time, but the restaurant looked even more attractive than in the daytime due to the brilliant lights coming out from their window. They had a copy of their extensive menu posted on one of their walls next to the entrance of the restaurant. As I entered the restaurant the decor itself has a taste of Thailand. It was like entering into another world. The host / server greeted me warmly and asked me to sit in any table I liked. I picked one near the center of the dining room area. It had a copy on the menu on it. To start off with I ordered a Virgin Pina Colada to drink. As an appetizer I ordered the Thai Sausage. And as the main entrée I ordered the Prik-Pao Noodles with Pork. All the food was so looked and tasted amazingly tasty and delicious. As I ate several people came to pick up takeout orders as well as others to eat in. You could tell this place had some steady customers, and others new like me.For dessert I ordered the Sticky Rice with Mango. It didn't disappoint me at all. Delicious. Thai cuisine has a very special taste and this restaurant knows it and delivers. I encourage all those who want to share this taste to try it out. Once you do I can assure you you'll want to return for more.

    It was pretty good. We went hiking and found this restaurant. We were lucky that found a free parking spot on the street. Just a little bit walk but really enjoyed the street. This place got a lot of drinks and the service was good. The food was a little bit sweet to me but it was pretty good. I usually eat spicy food. Maybe I should try spicy curry next time.

    N14. Lo Mein Noodle
    Chase S.

    Worst Lo Mein I have ever had in my life. For $20 each with tip, It literally looks like they cook a pack of ramen noodles and throw crap in it. Soggy Ramen noodle soup with a few vegetables thrown in. I will NEVER eat ANYTHING from this place again and I have no idea how they are open. Legitimately the WORST FOOD from a restaurant I have ever had in my life.

    Patio

    Cute space, especially the patio. The Tom kha and papaya salad are delicious. Need to go back and try more of the menu.

    Incredibly fresh and faster than sitting in a drive thru. The Panang curry and coconut sticky rice was amazing.

    Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed that my first Thai food experience in the area didn't come…read moreclose to the quality of Thai cuisine I'm accustomed to. The service was good, and since we arrived around 4 PM, the restaurant was very quiet and not crowded. However, the food fell short of expectations, and unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to recommend this restaurant based on my experience. We started with the dumplings, which were gummy and not properly seared. The texture was unpleasant, and after trying one, I couldn't continue eating them. For my main course, the vegetables had an unusual flavor, and the noodles were heavily drenched in oil, making the dish difficult to enjoy. I wasn't able to finish it. My partner ordered the duck (no photo available), and while the presentation was nice, he found the texture overly chewy. He ended up pouring extra sauce over the dish just to finish it. On a positive note, both the Thai tea and Thai green tea were very enjoyable. We even ordered refills, which are offered at half price--a nice touch and probably the highlight of our visit. Overall, while the service, ambiance, and beverages were good, the food quality did not meet our expectations.

    This is one of the few restaurants that can very well be deceiving. On the outside it is clean,…read morewith an impressive name and logo, and a nice dining room that isn't being used. A lady up front takes your order and all seems like everything will go well and you will have and excellent dining experience. That is, until the food arrives. At the ordering counter I ordered their most expensive item on the menu: Steak & Scallops Hibachi. And two Egg Rolls, and requested to dine in. As I waited for the food to arrive I had very high expectations on how good the food would be. And was looking forward for it to arrive so I could enjoy it. But when I was called to the counter to go pick it up, I had no idea of what a surprise I would get. At first when I opened the container where it came in, all looked nice and delicious. But when I started eating the fried rice didn't taste fresh. It was dry and felt and tasted like it was reheated. Then when I tasted the steak, it tasted like spoiled meat. I couldn't believe what I was eating. The mushrooms were not cooked well and some were even cold. And the slices of zucchini had stains on their skins. The egg rolls were dry. Like if they had been fried ahead of time and reheated. But the worst was the steak. It tasted like rotten meat. I couldn't believe it nor couldn't finish eating it. Just threw it away and left the restaurant. When I got home I brushed my teeth and washed my mouth to get rid of that horrible flavor from the rotten meat. What else I got I can only describe by having to run to the toilet. I don't like to write negative reviews, but in this case I feel obligated to do so, because of the spoiled food they are serving there and their lack of cooking knowledge. Another case of Don't judge a book by its cover. In this case the cover is deceiving the reader.

I ordered the veggie lo mein special combo which came with fried rice and spring rolls. The lo mein was delicious!! However, I was really disappointed by the "fried rice".

Wasn't bad, was just disappointed by the rice, I wish I had gotten just the lo mein instead.
