I was impressed by my dining experience! The ambience is so nice and chic with great lighting and decor when you walk in. The restaurant was well-staffed and the servers were attentive. The food was AMAZING! The crab rangoons and calamari puffs were crispy and tasty. The peanut chicken dish was very flavorful and thick with the sauce which I loved. The mango roll was so pretty and had a nice light sweetness to it. I loved the elegant presentation of the dishes as well as the taste. The executive chef went to the table and was friendly and nice. I could tell that a lot of care and thought was put into this establishment. The portions were good for the price. The mango sticky rice was yummy but I wish more of the rice was included. I felt that the portion was small for the price compared to the entrees and appetizers. Overall it was a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend!

I've been here twice now and I'm still on the fence. The first time, I ordered one of their Thai curries for takeout. It was fine, but it was missing that rich coconut milk flavor I look for -- it tasted thinner and less rounded than the curries I've had elsewhere. The second time I actually dined in and went with a stir-fry dish instead. That one was better. It was cooked well and everything was flavorful, though the fish sauce came through pretty strongly, which isn't always my thing. So: solid cooking, generous seasoning, but the curry didn't win me over. I'd say it's worth a shot if you like a bolder, fish-sauce-forward style, but I'm not sure I'll be rushing back.

I love this place and tell everyone about it!!! It's a great place for a birthday celebration a date night a girls night or even just you wanna bring a family member to a new spot! We have been here four times within the last two months it is that good! The service is amazing! The ambience is phenomenal. They have little robots bringing your food. There are lights on the ceiling. It feels very upscale, but it doesn't feel too stuffy and you just feel lots of good energy. The food is phenomenal for the price point. I took my entire family of six entrées drink drinks under $200. That is a steal! The bar you can sit at an order as well which I like there's also a sushi bar that you could do the same if you cannot get seats, I cannot wait to go back lol

The food was delicious & very filling. Honestly one of the best sushi spots I've ever been too. Can't wait to go again. It was comfy seats and the lights were dim and calming it was quiet it's nice and cold and looks fancy.

22.Red Dragon Roll

We went to UCF in an era where over our time we had 3 different restaurants that did Thai AND sushi and did them pretty well (Bangkok, Origami, and Thai Singha/Kirin). When they closed one by one we found a Thai/Sushi shaped hole in our hearts - until now. Green Papaya scratched both itches simultaneously because sometimes you want a spicy tuna roll and a bowl of tom kha. We started with the appetizer sampler - all of which was good but the stand out was the chicken satay both in flavor and tenderness/moistness. I wasn't a huge fan of their summer roll - it had ground chicken that seemed like it was for the chicken lettuce wraps. But they had great peanut sauce. I may have found the perfect tom kha soup - the broth wasn't too sweet or too sour and the biggest surprise was they chopped up the ingredients! Not huge chunks of chicken and veggies, all nicely diced to easily fit on a spoon. I got it medium but could easily do med-hot. The kani salad was well dressed and had shredded cucumber in it as well which I was less thrilled about than my heterosexual life mate was. She also got a red dragon roll which had perfectly crunchy fried shrimp inside and well minced and seasoned spicy tuna on top. My panang curry was good but a tad more sour than I like, however the veggies and chicken were reasonably sized and cooked to perfection with tender meat and crisp veg. The place is very modern and trendy inside with bright lighting and a bit loud. It was still nice enough to hold a conversation. The service was fantastic and they even have one of the cute little server robots that seemed to be "in training" as it had a human server following it around.

This place is very solid and we are excited to go back and try their other foods! We stopped in on a Saturday about 1115am and the place was already getting busy! So you can tell that this place is very popular. We were seated and offered menus and opted for their lunch special which was a great value. I got two sushi's and a soup for 13 dollars and my boyfriend got 3 sushi rolls for 17 dollars. The miso soup was yummy and the sushi was VERY fresh. I panicked and got the Vega Roll which had mango in it and wasn't my favorite but the shrimp tempura roll was very good and they were nice size pieces too. Our server wasn't super friendly but I don't think English was her first language and that's okay she was very attentive and quick! The ambiance as well was more upscale than I thought with good colors and a bar in the corner. There was different seating types through out. We are looking forward to going back

4 piece fried chicken wings

Bomb clear soup and delicious, crunchy wings. I wasn't feeling well this week so I've been eating soup by the bucket I was glad I added this Clear soup to the rotation. I called to inquire about what allergens may have been used in the food and the gentleman on the phone was able to confirm the recipes for me. Thank you ! (the wings are marinated in curry without the use of nuts) Can't wait to try this food again.

Every time we've been here, this restaurant is always vibrant, lively, and inviting! Service is extremely quick, so if you're starving, this is definitely an option for speedy food. My husband loves the pineapple fried rice. On the other hand, I try something different every time! Each dish was freshly prepared and very tasty. I did think the avocado salad was over dressed with the dressing. But with it's fresh ingredients and attractive presentation, I was easily able to overcome that. The robot that serves the food keeps things interesting. The music has been smooth jazz, which I don't mind at all. There's a well-equipped bar and a sushi bar. There is a lot of variety on the menu, including appetizers, desserts, chef's specials, and more. There's something for everyone. Parking is spacious and prices are reasonable!

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.

Miso soup
Angelina E.

Such a delicious dining experience! We dined in last night for my friend's birthday. I ordered the miso soup, yellowtail jalapeño, and the chicken lettuce wraps. I was very intrigued and surprised to see fruity pebbles being used as a garnish on most of the plate plates. It was a garnish on the yellowtail as well as the edamame that my friends ordered. I thought that this was really random, but fun and cute and never been done before. The miso soup was great, but it definitely could've come out a little bit hotter. The yellowtail was very fresh and flavorful. The chicken lettuce wraps were small, but that was a given because it was listed under appetizers. The combination of food that I got was the perfect amount for a meal for myself. The restaurant had these robots that brought out the food and the server would grab from the robot and serve it to us. It was very of funny to see. We also mentioned to our server that it was our friend's birthday and they brought out a huge birthday sign and served her a plate of whipped cream and pocky. This was very sweet of them and I can't wait to go back and try other menu items very soon! I had no issues with parking and found a spot immediately when coming into the lot. The interior of the restaurant seems very new and looks very fancy and wel kept.

Chicken 2.Pad Thai

If you're thinking about trying this place, DO IT. My wife and I wanted to try something new, and we were extremely impressed. All the food was genuinely 10/10 on taste, ingredients felt fresh, and everything came out hot - definitely all cooked to order, but with speed. Service was 10/10, the kind that's rare nowadays. Even random waitstaff walking by were asking if we needed anything and took care of refills. I can feel the sense of ownership and pride of the people working here. The ambience and vibe was classy through and through but doesn't feel uptight. I went in a tshirt and shorts and felt fine. lol this review sounds sponsored but I'm just happy to have a new restaurant in the area that is THIS good.

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.

Philly roll and Kirin Light
Jamie P.

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.

Amazing food and service!…read more I was in the area and I'm so glad I decided to try this place. They have great lunch specials and a big selection of foods. I ordered the basil fried rice, it was a recommendation from the chef and it did not disappoint! It was so fresh and came with a crispy roll. Also ordered the chicken pad Thai and it was really good, we have enough for dinner too! I ordered an iced Thai tea and it's perfect. It's sweet and refreshing. I will definitely be back!

A family-run take out Thai place that has climbed the ranks of my taste buds all the way to the…read moretop. Siam O-Cha is genuine, delicious, expertly prepared Thai cuisine that's worth a drive to get. I've had just about everything on the menu, but let's hit some of the heroes. The dumplings are divine, both in texture and flavor. The chicken satay is really good, but even better is the peanut sauce and Thai pickles that are served with it. They've really taken a normal chicken-on-a-stick and elevated to something culinary. Finally, the green curry. I could eat this everyday. Sometimes, I do. Yesterday, I ordered it Thai hot, and lemme tell you, that's an adventure. Super delicious and alive with spicy energy, it's really more than just food. It's a journey in spice and flavors that are a cut above the rest. And the people are as friendly and helpful as they come. It's definitely just a take-out kind of place, so don't go with the expectation of dining in. But at least you can feel comfortable knowing that for the short time you're in the place, the people serving and cooking your food are top-class. And the food itself, excellent.
