We stopped into Green Papaya for dinner during the week, and it was pretty busy! By the time we were leaving, there was actually a wait for tables, so it's clearly a popular spot. The restaurant itself is really cute inside, and the service was great throughout our visit. Everyone was friendly and attentive, which made for a nice dining experience. For dinner, we ordered the chicken tempura roll, spicy tuna roll, pad Thai, and drunken noodles. Unfortunately, the noodle dishes were a bit of a letdown for us. Both the pad Thai and drunken noodles seemed to be lacking flavor, and neither really stood out. They weren't necessarily bad, just pretty mediocre compared to what we were hoping for. The sushi, on the other hand, was much better! I really enjoyed the chicken tempura roll, which had great flavor, and my husband really liked his spicy tuna roll. We both agreed that the sushi was definitely the highlight of the meal. Overall, Green Papaya was a bit of a mixed experience for us. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, the service was really good, and we enjoyed the sushi, but the noodle dishes just didn't impress us. I'd be willing to give it another try, but I'd probably stick with the sushi next time!

Came here for dinner and the restaurant is very modern, nicely decorated, clean and spacious. They have a bar and plenty fo seating. The staff is friendly and attentive. The food was okay, I ordered the Thai Ginger with chicken and it was salty and a bit bland. The spicy level was perfect, but I could barely taste the ginger. My friend ordered one of the curries and she enjoyed it. I Will have to try one of the curries next time, to give them another chance.

2.Red Curry

Came to Green Papaya on a Saturday. We were sat immediately and the service was quick and attentive. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also lively with a relaxed ambiance. We've been to a couple of Green Papayas and it's nice that they're all a bit different. We've got the roti, salmon roll, lettuce wraps and Red Curry. The roti was buttery and the curry sauce to accompany it was nice and spiced well. The salmon roll was pretty standard but still done quite well. The lettuce wraps were juicy and a nice refreshing bite and the red curry was a nice change of bite from this being rich with a nice balance of sweet and spicy. I can't wait to come back again!

Tried out Green Papaya for lunch after a spectacular review from a friend, so I knew I had to get over there ASAP. I forgot to grab pictures of the restaurant, but I did snap a couple shots of the food and everything I tried was legit. The seaweed salad was phenomenal. Easily one of the best I've had in a long time. The gyoza was very good too, though I personally prefer mine fried a little harder. For my main dish, I went with the seafood red curry and it was fire. Perfectly seasoned, great spice level, and definitely the highlight of my meal. I'll most certainly be coming back soon especially to try the sushi.

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 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 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

22.Red Dragon Roll
Lisa M.

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

Absolutely exceptional experience. For starters ensure you order the Krab Rangoons, they were the absolute best I've ever had and I frequently order elsewhere but I've have made up my mind that this will be the new spot. The food, presentation, flavor, freshness .... perfect! They give an abundance amount when creating these rolls with equal amounts of everything without skimping like most places. It was beautifully decorated, the staff from the hostess to the servers were amazing! Lester, thank you so much for your attentiveness and all the others who continuously checked on our table to ensure service was amazing. We will be back, thank you for an amazing experience.

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.

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.

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!

Comfort food comes in many forms - and for me, it's circular and filled with raw fish…read more Totoya Sushi is a little place, randomly on the side of the road, exactly in a spot where you wouldn't think to look. But it's there, overlooking the lake, waiting to offer you delicious sushi. The staff are always very nice, helpful, and patient as you look through the menu. With a huge selection of fish and veggie combinations, the menu has something for everyone. (I'm sorry I don't have a menu picture for reference!) The ingredients are always fresh and the rolls are made in house, to order. I have never had a bad roll - or a bad meal. While the seating can be cramped with a full house, the views make up for that easily. If you manage to get a seat in the back, you can look out over the lake (which absolutely has gators because I saw one on my last afternoon visit.) There are booths, tables, and a large sushi bar - again, something for everyone! I highly recommend checking this spot out if you are a sushi lover like me. (But also, don't, because I still want to be able to get a seat there when I go!)

We ordered the enchiladas, which came with rice and a salad. And when I say salad, I mean WHO KNEW A SIDE SALAD COULD BE THAT GOOD?! Seriously, it was so fresh and delicious that I'd happily order it all by itself! The décor was lovely, the atmosphere was upbeat, everything was clean, and the food was FRESH, FRESH, FRESH! You can absolutely taste the difference, and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Now, my only "complaint" -- and I hesitate to even call it that -- is more of a cultural shock to our Mexican-restaurant-loving souls. Apparently, the chips and salsa come with a $4 charge rather than being complimentary, as we've come to expect at pretty much every other Mexican restaurant we've visited in our lives. We were a little taken aback and, on principle, decided to pass on that particular $4 experience. ‍ But honestly, that little surprise didn't take away from an otherwise wonderful lunch. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and we'll absolutely be back! Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for fresh, flavorful Mexican food in a clean, inviting atmosphere. Just know that the chips and salsa aren't on the house!

I've been coming to Bayridge for years now, and it's such a staple for me. Whenever someone is…read morevisiting from out of town, I always, ALWAYS recommend Bayridge. Their sushi is absolutely delicious, always high quality, and their happy hour specials are a great deal. In top of that, all of their servers are super polite, helpful, and friendly.

The ambiance is also great; the booths are nice and private, the blue glow from the lighting is very cozy as well. 10/10, can't wait to come back for more!

Bayridge Sushi is one of my local favorite sushi spots to visit!…read more I typically venture to the Longwood location. As it is the closest location to Casselberry. Having been on a handful of occasions, each visit, I am left quite satisfied and happy with not only the service provided, but just the general quality of the food. The restaurant is very beautiful inside - which is a lovely surprise because the exterior is very unassuming. It is infused with cultural decor that leaves you feeling like you have been transported to Japan! So, kudos to the designers!! Now, prior to diving into the food and drinks, I just quickly want to note, there is ample seating indoors. Even with the exterior being so unassuming, it is a quite spacious restaurant. They have banquet seating as well as booth seating. But I digress. Time for the FOOD REVIEW!! Now, the food here, or rather, the sushi, is just DELISH!! I will admit, I haven't tried other dishes from their menu beyond their sushi. Speaking of, the MENU here is MASSIVE! If you don't want sushi, you can definitely order other entrees as they offer bento boxes, bowls, and various other dishes. The price points are great and they also have lunch specials. As for the sushi options I typically indulge in, I stick with the tempura shrimp options. Sometimes I do their speciality rolls and other times I will indulge in their staple rolls. Even though I don't eat a ton of raw sushi (still training my palette for it), I have enjoyed the few raw sushi rolls I have tried. The drinks are also super tasty! My first visit, many months ago, I got their Thai Tea. I also got a matcha!! Both were lovely!! They have a really good non-alcoholic and alcoholic drink menu. Again, the pricing is reasonable pending what you order. The desserts here are BEYOND GOOD! On my most recent visit, I tried their green tea tiramisu and it was really good. Not too sweet and not too earthy (even though I am not opposed to earthy). All in all, I always have a top notch experience here! The staff are great and attentive. There's a decent amount of parking and wait times are usually not super long - even during their peak hours. If you have visited this restaurant, please do!
