Quaint little restaurant and the decor was solid. We had to wait for almost everything which isn't surprising as they looked to be short-staffed - I hope they staff more than two front house people regularly. My friend and I had drinks, he tried a Thai beer and peach saki, which he enjoyed. I had fountain root beer. We ordered steamed potstickers, which came out too quickly, were just north of warm and the sauce was far too sweet. Underwhelming. They'd be better if they were up to temp and the sauce was more savory and less sweet. The crabmeat Rangoon was crisp on one side and a little soggy on the other, they came out hot but I think they had been sitting for a bit. The sauce was again, far too sweet. It looked like straight honey with red pepper flakes in it. The entrees however, almost made up for the appetizers. Both plates were large and outstanding flavor. He had Racy Pad Thai (shrimp) with level 2 heat (1-5). I had chicken pad Thai (level 3), with a tamarind-based sauce and chopped peanuts on top. Again, both were fantastic. Overall a pleasant experience, I will return.

I liked the landscaping out front, it was very warm and welcoming and the inside was the same way. Quaint, homey, and very comfortable. It is just a place that you feel comfortable being at, which is always good for a diner like this. There was four of us total, and I was very impressed with the menu. Again, the variety is a great selling point and it isn't so much that becomes overwhelming. They have mostly anything that would fit your taste on a particular day -- really fabulous. Our table got a sweet and sour stir fry with shrimp, a sesame chicken dish, an omelette, and a southwestern shipwreck. I won't speak too much for the other at my table, but there were no complaints with the food at all. From my perspective, the food was EXCELLENT. I had the shipwreck and ordered a pancake ala carte. The pancake was absolutely delicious. Cooked perfectly, fluffy.. They add a touch of cinnamon which really warms up the pancake flavor-wise. And I realize shipwrecks aren't awfully complicated to execute... but again. PERFECT. I could actually taste individual ingredients which were all marvelous. Honestly.. Cross Roads Bistro had a chance at being my favorite diner in the corridor. Except the service was unacceptable. I will try to make this short and sweet because it annoys me to even think about. The waitress had brought us our checks. Came back to check on them to see if we were ready to pay maybe 2 minutes later. Half the table was clearly not ready to pay as the tickets hadn't moved and there was no money / cards with the tickets. The waitress asked anyway if the tickets were ready to be paid. Guest A in my group said that he was still waiting for more tea (as his glass had been empty for over 15 minutes by this point). The waitress obviously took extreme offense to this and became very rude and very snippy.. In a very sarcastic / rude / and almost put-out tone, she proceeded to say that he never asked for more tea and that's why the glass was empty.After a second of awkward silence, she asked Guest A if he would like more tea (which I think should have been obvious). Guest A replied, " Sure! " and the waitress retorted, "See, that wasn't very hard, was it?" Wow... Well, Guest A didn't really catch / hear this comment in it's entirety but he knew she had said something unflattering. So after she walked away to get tea, he asked the table what she said. He almost couldn't believe it.. So much so that when she came back, he asked her what she said. She proceeded to lie and pretend as if she never said anything. She never returned to the table. The other guests (one of which is over the age of 90) were then required to get up and seek out the waitress to actually pay for their meals. Look.. I know customers aren't always pleasant. I know bad days happen. But I used to be a waiter and I couldn't get away with talking to CUSTOMERS like that under any circumstances. Heck, I wouldn't even think about. Before that incident, I was REALLY excited about this location and the food they offered. I was ready to come back fairly frequently? Now? I don't really want to go back at all. What a shame. ------- EDIT: I swear, I did this before. The questionable waitress seems to be gone and all of the great things I said about the food still hold true after many visits. Please go to this location and support our local businesses. These owners truly care about the food they serve and the customers as well. FIVE STARS.

However, it was mainly chicken and onions with a few carrot slices. Unfortunately, there were no snow peas, mushrooms or water chestnuts.

The spring rolls were good, but they contained sliced chicken which we were not expecting. They came with plain chopped peanuts instead of a peanut sauce which was also disappointing.

It's nicely decorated and comfortable. We were greeted and told to sit anywhere. We chose the last available booth and placed our order. After the server left we noticed that the table needed to be wiped. We didn't see the server again until our food was ready, so she's probably working in the kitchen as well as tables. When our food came we asked for the table to be wiped and she did. The appetizers came without plates for us but no big deal. We were splitting an entree. We then asked for plates and forks when the entree arrived, which she provided, but no napkins, which my husband went and grabbed. Our shrimp entree was spicy and still flavorful, everything I love about good Thai food. My point is that this place with really really good food is only marginal as far as the table service goes. In spite of the issues with service I'm giving them all the stars because the food was so good. Try them!
