I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Green Papaya. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The servers were nice and the food came very fast. I loved the restaurant's decor and the robot servers were a nice touch. I definitely recommend checking this place out.

We've heard a lot of great things about Green Papaya so we decided to have our wedding anniversary dinner here. It was Monday so not very busy when we arrived, we were greeted and seated promptly. They have one of those Scorpion Bowl drinks for two for like $25 which I would have normally purchased but it was a school night so I just ordered a Yuengling. Draft beers are more expensive than bottled, $5.50 for a bottled Yuengling is a great deal. The restaurant is very beautiful and the dining room was kept immaculate; alternatively, the restroom was not very clean. They could have done a better job with the restroom, especially since business was slow and they had plenty of staff on duty. We ordered the Love Boat for two ($60). It came with two specialty rolls (8 pieces each), 15 pieces of sashimi, and 8 pieces of Nigiri. Everything was delicious and fresh. For dessert we ordered one Peanut Butter Explosion to share ($8). The dessert was good (generic) but it should have come with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Service was hit and miss. Our primary server didn't have much of a personality but she got the job done. There were two other ladies that helped and refilled glasses and a manager that stopped by to see if we were happy with everything so that was great. Overall, I had a good experience and thought the sushi was on point. I would return for the sushi again but maybe go somewhere else for dessert. If I had to choose between Green Papaya and Bayridge I would most likely choose Bayridge because we've just had better overall experiences there.

Green beans
Mel S.

I've visited Green Papaya a few times now since opening and their sushi has remained consistent and my recommendation for folks. I've tried the panang curry, red curry, amazing curry, and pad thai, to name a few. My favorite appetizer is their green beans! My last visit wasn't as impressive as the times before, but I will assume it is due to the busyness of the restaurant that day. Will visit again since there's more to try. Service was good and restaurant is always clean. They do a great job with presentation for their dishes as well.

Had a great time at Green Papaya. The ambiance is modern and inviting, for both casual dining and a relaxed night out. Service was friendly and attentive for the most part. Staff was welcoming and helpful, and patient with food alterations we requested. We tried Veg Spring Rolls, Pad Thai with tofu, Veg friend rice, Vegetable sushi and Papaya salad. The dishes had a nice balance of spice and seasoning. Will definitely be back to try other vegetarian options .

Philly roll and Kirin Light

We were excited to try this newer restaurant after hearing for great things. The interior got a huge overhaul and looks really great. Lots of hard surfaces, though, so it is a bit loud when the tables fill in. They have a full bar and a nice variety of beers. I ordered a Philly role to start and it was great. The filling in the pieces were large and not fishy at all like some sushi places. For my meal, I ordered the pad see ew with chicken. They offered a spice level from 1-5. I went with 2 and there was a noticeable tingly, numbing spice. Not really spicy tasting though. Next time I'll try 3. After a touch of soy sauce, the flavor was just what I was hoping for. The veggies in the dish looked fresh and the noodles were cooked nicely. I liked that the peanuts were served on the side because I didn't really want them in the dish anyway. Service was good, though felt a little rushed. Our table got appetizers and a few minutes later our main course arrived. They use a shelving robot to move the food around from the kitchen to the tables. This visit, it had an image of a tuxedo on its "body" which was cute. The prices are no different from other Thai restaurants in the area. Everything was fresh and made as expected. We will definitely come back.

Came here for our Anniversary dinner. I had heard all kinds of good reviews but our evening was just a little Blah. The servers were friendly but didn't seem to know what was going on with the food. We would ask them questions and they would be like I'm not sure. I asked if soy was in the eel sauce she told me no but then when I looked it up on Google it said yes I'm allergic to soy sauce. Anyway we got the Love boat for two It was good. Then we got the peanut butter explosion which was good. But the presentation was disappointing and it should have had a scoop of ice cream to go with it. Overall the experience was just normal nothing stood out. We usually go to Bayridge sushi which I think I like better. We wanted to try this place. The little robot was cool. Nice decor.

Tempura shrimp sushi roll
Daniella R.

At first glance, you wouldn't think from the outside that this establishment is as NICE in the inside. SO modern and trendy and even has the little robots working. The service was good and it got busy for lunch very quickly. I was very limited with time and only got a tempura sushi roll which was delicious! I plan on going again and trying more times from their impressive menu. Def recommend for a business lunch or even date night.

Lavender sour
Kelly W.

Wonderful experience once inside, terrible experience trying to get inside. The parking lot is WAY too small for the amount of business this restaurant has. I circled for at least ten minutes looking for a spot. The parking lot was full and there were at least 6-7 cars circling the parking lot all looking for a spot. The neighborhood behind it is not the nicest and I witnessed a man come out of his house to yell at someone trying to park in front of his house. Everyone in our party had to park off site and walk a block or two which i'm sure is causing issues with other businesses. Once inside we had a great experience. The inside is decorated beautifully, it's crazy to think it used to be a Panera! They do not take reservations unless it's a large party so we put our name down and were told it would be about an hour wait. We migrated to the bar where we ordered some drinks to pass the time. Drinks are very reasonable, their standard drink menu is $12-13 for most drinks which is spectacular these days. Their seasonal menu is about $16. The lavender sour was beautifully presented and delicious! Our table was ready much sooner than anticipated (I think we only waited 20ish minutes) and we were sat at a booth by the kitchen. The menu is big, with sushi, hot and cold apps, curry, noodle dishes, etc. There is truly something for everyone on this menu. They also have gluten free options. We ordered three appetizers (calamari, shrimp shumai and I can't remember the third), the calamari came out very quickly and then our other two never made it to the table. Our entrees came out like a minute after we asked about our other apps and by that time it wasn't worth it to get the appetizers so we asked to just have them taken off our bill. Not sure what happened there. Our server kind of went MIA as well, we didn't see her much throughout our meal. All of our entrees were plated beautifully and everything tasted great. Portions were good and the prices were very fair. Since we were seated by the kitchen we got to see a lot of dishes as they came out and everything looked so good! The presentation kept surprising me, every dish was prettier than the last. Overall we had a great experience and I absolutely want to return. 4 stars for the terrible parking lot and for them losing our appetizers. Still a great spot to check out!

Dessert cake
Kaleigh B.

We went on a Monday and this place was completely packed! It's clear their food is amazing. They have a great ambiance, high end but also approachable. I loved the sampler platter appetizer. Definitely recommend. Also the pad Thai. Desserts were good, but not amazing

Pad Thai
Michelle M.

We ordered Pad Thai and BOGO fried rice via uber eats and they were both good. Was expecting so much more based on all the reviews but I found both dishes to just be average, not bad but nothing special. I also thought the tofu pieces were a little stale and tough, and the veggies in the fried rice were just a couple small peas and carrots. Again, nothing was bad, just very average and flavors were very plain.

Tried Green Papaya Thai & Sushi and it was a really solid experience. Nice mix of Thai food and sushi, so there's a lot to choose from. Sushi was fresh and came out looking great The duck was easily my favorite, super flavorful and cooked just right Good variety between Thai dishes and sushi rolls Everything felt well put together, not rushed Definitely a spot I'd come back to, especially for the duck.

I came here with a party of 12, I certainly didn't even get the chance to take a picture of all the food that was on the table because we were all just eating from one another, I had to spring rolls, the egg rolls, duck, and the Thai basil with the sauce on the side with brown rice. Everything tasted delicious, not one person at my table complained. Beautiful place, lovely ambience, and bright on colors. Bathroom, superbly cleaned, and even when I left the bathroom. I saw this little AI bot that they have that makes its way from the kitchen to the dining room floor and they can use that instead of holding all the dishes on their hands all the time. Very thoughtful, very smart business technique. They have a lot of things correct. I commend them! I would definitely come back and eat something else here when the time is right.

Tom Kha, Five Spice Green Beans, Roti Canai, and Flame Salmon Nigiri
Anna M.

My husband and I chose to go to Green Papaya to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary, and it ended up being a great choice for a special night out. The restaurant itself was very classy with a modern atmosphere. That said, they were quite busy for a Sunday night, and the background noise from other tables got pretty loud at times. To start, we ordered the Flame Salmon Nigiri, Roti Canai, Five Spice Green Beans, and Tom Kha Soup. Everything came out quickly and was absolutely delicious. The Flame Salmon Nigiri was incredibly fresh and literally melted in our mouths. The only small disappointment was that it wasn't served in the fancy book presentation that's set on fire like we've seen on social media, but just arrived on the plate as is. The Five Spice Green Beans were another standout and ended up being one of my favorite dishes of the night. We loved interacting with the robot server that helps bring food to the tables. It definitely added a bit of novelty to the experience and was fun to see in action. For our entrees, we ordered the Thai Garlic Duck along with the Dynamite Roll and Drama Queen Roll. The duck had a wonderfully crispy skin and great flavor overall. Our only wish was that it came with a little more sauce to go with it. The sushi rolls were very tasty as well, but the pieces were quite large (so big that they were a bit difficult to eat in one bite). Slightly thinner slices would make them perfect! One thing that really made the evening special was how accommodating the staff was. We brought in the top tier of our wedding cake to enjoy for dessert, and when we asked if they could serve it, they went above and beyond. They plated it beautifully with whipped cream and even added a candle for us, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the moment feel extra celebratory. Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Green Papaya. The food was flavorful, the portions were generous, and the staff helped make our anniversary feel special. We left completely stuffed and already looking forward to coming back again soon!

Wow. The size and quality of these rolls were just spectacular. Everything tasted super fresh…read more My mom devoured her dragon roll and I was able to scrounge up a bite. The eel was cooked perfectly and with just the right amount of eel sauce.

Lastly, the volcano roll had more perfectly cooked shrimp tempura (I normally don't eat the ends but it was fried the best way possible) and balanced flavors.

We stopped by and found it to be a nice little spot with good value and a welcoming vibe. The truffle fries arrived looking impressive with a crispy exterior, but fell short on flavor. They tasted more like premium fries than truffle fries, which was a letdown given what we were expecting. That said, they're still a solid appetizer if you're hungry. The real draw here is the happy hour. Three sushi rolls for around $18 is a pretty solid deal, and we appreciated that the happy hour menu keeps things simple with rolls featuring just one or two ingredients. Nothing fancy, but executed well. The sushi itself was good, fresh, and satisfying without being exceptional. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service was not noticeable (which sometimes is a very good thing), making it an easy place to grab dinner with friends. Would I make a special trip? Probably not. But if a friend wanted to meet up nearby or I was already in the area, I'd definitely return.

I am a big fan of sushi and their sushi bowls are the next best thing to having 17 rolls of sushi all to myself. My usual go-to is the make your own sushi bowl.

Their menu boasts several options for bowls, noodles, sushi, rolls, and mac & cheese. Pretty much any comfort food you could want, they have. I'm always greeted when I come into this location. The staff are very friendly and are ready to help if you need it. Even though the staff seems to always be making to go orders, they always make time for the guest who are inside the store as well. While my local store is usually busy with online and to go orders, the staff make time to ensure that the inside of the store is clean and cozy for guess who want to dine in as well. I always find a nice place to sit, and I can have a good laugh at the skeletons that decorate the front of the store. The store and the skeletons always match whatever holiday season we might be in. It's a nice personal touch to a relatively commercial store. I recommend this Sus Hi to anyone looking for a tasty, reliable meal!
