Reviews For Thai Sticky Rice

Just ordered the green curry with chicken lunch special to go. I upgraded to the fried rice. I brought it back to my desk to eat it and it's amazing. I've been to Thailand and this is very authentic. I ordered it with 2 stars for spicy and it was perfect. I love spicy so I might try 3 stars next time but this was really good. They packed the food well in different take out containers. I wish the drunken noodles were on the lunch menu. That's my second favorite thai dish. The restaurant is not easy to spot while driving. The sign just says thai restaurant and not the name of the restaurant. I recommend using GPS if you've never been. I passed it the first time. Restaurant was super cute inside and the employees were nice and helpful. I'll definitely be back.

Absolutely amazing. We had veggie fresh rolls, papaya salad with yellow curry with brown rice. Best meal I have had in decades. Highly recommend.

Disappointed with portion size of Spicy Scallops dish, but I'm still giving 5 stars, all of us loved their food. Scallops were a bit small plus the to-go bowl was only half full. My vegetarian wife got the yellow curry w tofu, and said it was the best she's had. Spicy, so be sure to specify what you want. Friend had vegetarian Pad Thai and thought it was a little bland at first bite. But came back to it as leftovers that night and said the flavors had really melded and it she loved it. We also bought a bag of 8 "thai cookies" (pic). Slightly sweet, light crisp waffle-flower looking. Liked them, would get them again.

We've been regulars here since it first opened, and we can't recommend it enough. Tonight, Cathy's service was outstanding, deserving of another 5-star review. She was absolutely fantastic, and the food was just perfect in every way. And make sure you don't miss out on the hot ginger tea!

Very tasty food. The best Thai food I have tasted so far. Even my little kids loved the Tom kha soup(which is Vegan) and noodles. Planning to visit again. We loved the red curry and soup.
