The menu is loaded with many Vietnamese delights, but I was only there for Pho, so I asked what broths they make and was surprised to learn they make beef, chicken, and vegetable broths for their Pho! Many places I visit only seem to make a beef, so I was happy to be able to enjoy chicken broth with my Phở gà. I told him to pack the order securely as I had a long drive home, but that clearly didn't happen. I didn't wait long for my order, maybe 10 minutes total and when I got it, it was in a tied plastic bag, which I carried out. I felt heat on the bottom and thought maybe one of the lids leaked, so when I looked at the lids, they were very poorly secured, which is an issue. They bought terrible, cheap, low-grade quart containers, which barely hold the lid. So I seatbelted the bag in my front seat and made it home fine. But when unpacking at home, I noticed the large round containers they put the main food in had lids that was sitting on top of the base, but didn't lock on at all - Again, cheap containers. They also had a nice assortment of accoutrement in that container, but everything was mixed together, both the cold and the hot - this is NOT appropriate. You should never pack cold and hot things in a single vessel when food is "to go." Even still, we separated everything and when it came time to eat, the noodles were so soft, they were melting. The broth was on the bland side, so I found myself adding Sriracha and salt for the first time ever to my Pho broth. The veggies were fresh though. The chicken looked and tasted good, but there were several odd, dark pieces in it that wasn't appetizing to come across. Overall - I really wanted to love this experience, especially since the smell inside that restaurant was great, but I feel it was slightly less than was it should have been. I'd say this was a 3.5 star visit, but will rate on the hi-end at 4 stars. Would I return? Not for Pho.

If you are trying to support a local business over a chain, this is the place you need to go! This…read morespot is an absolute gem. It was a bit hidden but great location next to an actual train track. Interestingly enough, a train passed through while we dinned. I'm sure the outside experience it better than indoors. However, the outside tables is more limited. They feature a small menu, but you can tell they focus on fresh ingredients. Quality over quantity. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, and it was easily one of the best I have ever had! What really elevates it is the inclusion of thinly sliced apples; they provide a fantastic crunch and a perfect sweet-tart balance. You have to try it! We stopped by during a busy Tuesday lunch rush, and despite the place being packed, the staff was very attentive. Everyone was kind and clearly working hard, doing their absolute best to check in on us and keep things moving. Highly recommend this local spot for a fresh, high-quality lunch!

We picked the first place called "Ban Thai Restaurant". We put the address in the GPS headed there. When we got there it was closed (disappointment). We reverted to Google and found Thai Gourmet Restaurant. This time we called to find out if they were open and they were. The pictures of the food on their website looked so delicious. When we got to Thai Gourmet, we were greeted by the amazing hostess. The first impression was delicious because the restaurant was filled with the amazing aroma of Thai spices. We knew we were going to be in for a Thai treat. The biggest test for any Thai restaurant are beef salad, papaya salad and Pad Thai. Thai Gourmet did not disappointment. The flavors were spot on and authentic. It was so delicious that my oldest daughter did her happy dance when she tried the food. She knows because she spent some time in Thailand. I wish I can mind-meld you the deliciousness of Thai Gourmet but technology has not gotten there yet. So, you just have to visit Thai Gourmet Restaurant and experience it for yourself. The food is authentic and delicious. We have added this as a favorite on our GPS. Every time we pass through Ashland. We are making a restaurant stop just to eat at Thai Gourmet. Make the trip. It will be worth the stop for some delicious and amazing Thai cuisine. Thank you Thai Gourmet Restaurant for having us and for serving us with authenticity.

We were seated promptly, given menus and didn't have to wait very long for our server to bring taco chips and salsa as well as a white dipping sauce. ( It was a little sweet for me but it mixed nicely with the salsa) He took our drink order and we looked at the menu. It's nice that most places have unsweetened tea, because I'm not a soda drinker....but sometimes I want something other than water. We saw a nice size platter at the next table that looked really good, so we asked our server about it. It was a Taquito platter with rice, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and guacamole. We were looking for a light meal so we decided to split the platter. It was very good, the Taquitos could have used a bit more filling, but everything was delicious. It had that colorful ambience that always gives a feeling of a fun party.

The interior overall is festive, artful, spacious and inviting. Huge, attractive booths and tables make for comfortable dining. Having raised 5 children, I recognized this as the kind of restaurant we used to seek out when they were little because of how well Casa Herradura accommodates guests of all ages and sizes. Our server was fabulous, he gave us a window booth, which we love. The menu has a decent vegetarian section to begin and our server made it easy to veganize our dishes from there (hold the cheese, sour cream). He got everything perfect and kept good care checking in once food was on the table. The taco bowl and veg fajita were peak flavor and presentation, as was the margarita. This restaurant is so good I am already excited about my next dinner date! Yes: vegan friendly Yes: family friendly

Stopped here on a road trip headed down I-95, convenient location just off the highway. Food, atmosphere, and service were all excellent. Menu has a great variety but isn't overwhelming. Excellent wine list and selection of beers, and mixed drinks, as well as appetizers and deserts. We had cheese steak egg rolls with fries. The specials were what we ordered for dinner: Lobster Ravioli- great portion of lobster meat with a creamy sweet pink sauce; and the AHI tuna special with a really nice red sauce with diced green peppers, thinly sliced onions, and chopped olives, with a side of spaghetti and marinara sauce. It was more food than we could finish so we took away leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Was sad to pass on the desert menu- lots of great options to choose from. Our server, Fawn was very polite, super attentive, and very cheerful. We came on a Friday night after the dinner rush and had a very quiet and relaxing dinner. Highly recommend for a far better than average casual dining experience.
