    Shrimp Red Curry

    So glad we found this place! I had the Shrimp Red Curry and it was it great. Portions were good and so was the service . All 4 of us left happy and will return again .

    I was very excited to try this restaurant out but unhappily surprised that my Drunken Noodles was so so greasy. I had to add coconut milk and boil the food in it, then strain to be able to eat it. I attached a picture of all the oil particles floating in the milk. That is not even half the oil. The Tom Yum Soup was a bucket of oil. Total shame.

    Plenty of parking.

    The Thai food is outstanding. With two locations this one I have visited many times over the recent 3 to 4 years and it is consistently outstanding. Thai, the owner and proprietor has another location in Shrewsbury which is run by his lovely wife. Their food is impeccable, authentic, and extremely well prepared and even handles allergies such as gluten intolerance with a breeze. The ambience is great for lunch or dinner and has a very robust to-go business as well. I can't recommend this restaurant enough for those that love Thai and Asian cuisine.

    Thai Tamarind is a legit spot with some serious flavor. We got the Basil Fried Rice, Chicken Satay, Chicken Pad Thai, Red Curry, and Crispy Chicken Spicy Noodle. The Basil Fried Rice and Crispy Chicken Noodles slapped--so good and just the right spice. Chicken Satay was mid, but the Pad Thai was a total vibe, sweet and tangy in all the right ways. The Red Curry was fine . Overall, it's a great place to hit up if you're craving some Thai food.service was super quick.

    Cheng Du Restaurant - Pork Fried Rice

    To be totally honest, living in the area for 5 years we never tried Cheng Due before mainly because…read moreof the low ratings in Yelp. However, last weekend we decided to give it a try because some times we need to give the benefit of the doubt to some places and judge them by ourselves. Well, to our surprise we had a very pleasant first experience at this place. Starting with the ambience, the restaurant has a nice sophisticated and inviting atmosphere. Everything was very clean and organized in an elegant way, which caused a very good first impression. Continuing with the food, there is a variety of options in the menu, mainly Chinese (of course) but also a Japanese section (sushi and other items). We ordered from the Chinese options...For appetizers we ordered the Thai Spring Rolls, the Scallion Pancakes, and the Boneless Ribs, all of them very delicious. The Scallion Pancakes have been the best in terms of texture that we have tried in the area. Our only recommendation would be to add more scallions to the dough so they can taste more to scallion. The flavor of the Boneless Ribs was very tasty and their texture was tender, not chewy as we have tried in other places. The Thai Spring Rolls were interesting, flavor was good as well as the texture. As main entree, we ordered the Orange Crispy Beef and the Sesame Chichen and found both very delicious. The crispy beef was the first time we tried something like that in the area. The amount of sauce that they used in both dishes was not too excessive and the tenderness of both the beef and the chicken was very good. Regarding drinks, we ordered a Piña Colada and a Polynesian cocktail, both with very balanced flavors. The only recommendation for the Piña Colada is to try making it more frozen and not with too many ice cubes. The flavor was pretty similar to an authentic Piña Colada (we are from Puerto Rico, the place where this drink was born and have to admit that the flavor was good); making it more frozen would give the final touch to make it more authentic, in our opinion. The desserts menu was not extensive at all, only one option available which was the fried ice cream. We decided to try it anyway and found it very good. In terms of the service, it was acceptable. Our server did a great job taking the order and not missing any item as well as serving our table on time and accurate. He wasn't smiling all the time, but he was respectful and polite, enough for us. I would say that if you are in the area, you can give it a try. For 5 years we avoided this place, and unless they changed something recently I have to say that we like the experience and are planning to go back. We don't do late dinner regularly, so we went there around 5:30 pm, which we don't know if that could have made any difference in everything.

    Statues, wood, living room chairs at most tables, and a few private nooks make this a very stylish…read morerestaurant fitting the claim of "sophisticated Asian cuisine" on the sign out front. Weekday lunch with not much of a crowd. Lunch combinations made it easy. -- Hot and Sour Soup: Tea-colored and thin and somewhat watery, but the heat and tartness still came through. Decent amount of mushrooms and tofu, without much variety. -- Egg Roll: Crisp outside, moist inside. Mostly cabbage, with some gray pebbles of pork. Not much flavor here, so it really needed the duck sauce. -- Orange Beef: A generous portion for a lunch combo, with bumpy semi-crisp surfaces, and somewhat tender meat within. Think of them as miniature chicken fried steaks. The flavors in this dish were impressive, blending spicy, sweet, and tart. Orange, peel, onions, and other little nuggets added complexity. A little gloppy, but someone who likes this dish would like this dish here. -- Fried Rice: Very light of color and no additions other than egg. Moist and fresh, but bland. Zero flavor. White rice would make more sense (and maybe even more flavor). -- Pork Fried Rice (full order): I ordered an extra to go, to see how it compared against the lunch special rice that wasn't that special. Still light and a little lacking in flavor, but an improvement with the pork and other additions. Fairly average. Decent enough meal, reasonable value, but flavor and/or texture was a little lacking on some items. Worth another look though, thanks to the Orange Beef and the atmosphere.
