Hot and Spicy Chicken

Wild orchids makes me think of the "hole in the wall" type of restaurant serving comfort food. My favorite dishes is the hot and spicy chicken. It's the only place in town I eat it.

My wife wanted to go to Wild Orchid but it was under construction. The restaurant is small but cumbersome, the young waitress waited on us, I assume it is tgeir family memeber. My wife order Kapoon and springrolls and I order my Pad Kaprow ans 2 Wonton Soups. And 2 Thai Ice for me and my just wanted water. When we got our food it was huge, my wifes Kapoon is larger and her spring roll she order was 8-9inches and 1-1/2 inches in diameter. My Pad Kaprow vwry tasty, not hot, not to salty, my has an awesome run like how it should be, and my Wonton Soup is hugh, just at my photos if you go to any Asian restaurant they will give you small portion with a hugh bill. Our food came out to be $65 so I tip the young waitress $20 and thank her for an awesome food and service. This restaurant got my 5 stars rating and we will be back again. Huge portuon less cost.

Honey Walnut Shrimp

While in the neighborhood... we looked on our handy Yelp app to find something good near by. Wild Orchid was rated higher than a few other AsIan food restaurants around. We decided to give it a chance. Service was a little slow for a Wednesday night as a new employee was getting ready trained in. Fortunately we weren't in a major hurry and we ordered an app to start. Food: -Cream cheese wontons: triangle folded and good flavor. We really enjoyed the tomato style sweet and sour dipping sauce. - Honey Walnut Shrimp: nice value for the price. Many large shrimp in breading with walnuts and a honey sauce. Some pieces were a little too sweet. Maybe due to the excess sauce on the plate. It made it look pretty though. - Sweet and sour Chicken: lightly breaded chicken and tasty s&s sauce. Peppers and pineapple added to this dish. - Chicken Egg Foo Yung: 2 large patties that had great flavor. The gravy was perfect and savory. - Chicken Fried Rice: they ask for a spice level. We asked for mild for my mother in law and it came out a little too spicy for her. We enjoyed! This had nice quality pieces of chicken in it. All and all a nice experience here. We would recommend if in the area.

Vegetable fried rice.

I ordered delivery $100 worth of food at Wild Orchid one night because I just didn't have time to cook. I got: -Eggrolls -cream cheese wantons -Bun grilled pork -Bun Special -chicken pad Thai -sweet and sour chicken -fried rice Online ordering was super easy through Yelp. My food was dropped off at the front door within an hour and I could even track where the delivery car was. The food was good but I have a few complaints. My first complaint were the Eggrolls. I thought they would be Vietnamese style Eggrolls but they were more like Chinese style, with the thick wrapper and full of cabbage. I'm not a big fan of Chinese style Eggrolls so I was a bit disappointed. Secondly, there were no option to choose "no spice" for spice levels online. It was mandatory that I choose a spice level which was from 1-5, and when the food came, there were some spice to a lot of my orders. Kids were going to be eating the food but they couldn't eat the majority of the entrees because there were spice to it. I would order again but will not be ordering through the Yelp online order platform. I will also not order the Eggrolls.

Won ton soup
Sabra Chicki D.

The food was a welcome surprise. Tucked away in a little strip mall next to a Mexican restaurant is this little jewel. We had won ton soup which was very good. Pot stickers were very flavorful. Not greasy at all. The special Pad Thai was wonderful. Just the right touch of spice and the honey walnut shrimp was light and sweet and not at all greasy. I'd come back. Good tea too.

Grilled Pork Rice Plate

Lissa Orchid is the new name previously known as Wild Orchid. The management has changed. We went right when they open for the day. The vibes are quite casual with family and kids around. The service was pretty fast during my experiences (2nd time). The food was overall pretty delicious with bigger portions for sure! Overall great experience only lost a star due to some menu items being served during a certain time frame and was not made known as well as some food items like the grilled pork was not grilled.

We ordered vegetable spring rolls and received regular spring rolls with pork and shrimp. When we attempted to remove the meat, the shrimp had a long, disgusting vein in it. We noticed that none of the shrimp were deveined. My husband got the pad Thai, which was good, although very sweet. The shrimp in this were also not deveined. That grossed us out so we didn't eat any of the shrimp. I ordered the veggie pho, which was good, but nothing special. The wontons were average. The egg rolls were quite good though! There was definitely a lot of food for your money though, and well priced.

I was working out in Woodbury and had a bit of time to kill, so I popped up Yelp and Wild Orchid came on my list. Ironically enough, I had some free GrubHub cash that was expiring that day, so that made my decision quite easy. I went with the Bun ga' nuong', which is a Vietnamese grilled chicken salad. I got mine extra spicy. There honestly had to have been 20 ingredients in this dish and I was elated with the amount of effort that must've went in to this dish. The combination of endless fresh veggies, vibrant noodles, and spiced chicken were to die for. This would undoubtedly be one of my go to's in the city. The residents of Maplewood/Woodbury don't realize how good they have it with this spot. I've seen some mixed reviews, but many of those came from Americanized Chinese dishes. The owners are Vietnamese. While I can only speak about the dish I had, I can truly say that it's something that I'd eat at least once a week if it were in Downtown Minny. Furthermore, the prices are ridiculously low and the same aforementioned dish would be $3-4 higher if it weren't out there in the 'burbs. Realize what you've got and give this place some love!

Mini Thai Boat
Doua Chi V.

Not the best food in town. I haven't ate since 12 in the afternoon so I am super hungry. Was actually really excited about this place. A Friend recommended this place and I am so disappointed. A friend said, "the thai boat is so good, taste like you had it in thailand." If the Thai Boat taste like this in thailand then i will never ever get it, its just taste like water and salt. Good thing i only got a mini and not the big bowl. The laab esaan was OK, i ask for slight bitterness but none, the flavor was alright. Got some spice and salt, couldn't taste the rice powder in it. I didn't get my stick my rice i ordered with it. I don't even want to talk about the green curry. Its a soup of green water, after i had it, i lost my appetite. I didnt even want to take it home but the husband said to take it because we hate wasting foods. The service was not the greatest, waited at least 10 minutes for someone to come to us, they forgot forks for us, didn't give us plates to share. I probably wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Is there a lunch buffet?

I wish there was, but there doesn't appear to be. They have a huge lunch crowd from 3M everyday so I guess they figured they didn't need one.
