Green Papaya Food Quality and Taste: 4/5 -Thai Egg Roll: 5/5 -Yummy Roll: 4/5 This was a great lunch. The egg rolls were super crunchy and the sushi roll was huge! I love anything with mango, so I had to get the yummy roll. This was a quick lunch for me, so I didn't try much. But there's a large menu with a variety of options. Service: 3/5 Service was fine. A little quick. Nothing particularly stands out, but it was completely fine. Atmosphere: 4/5 It's a nice atmosphere. Decor is nice. Music was nice and relaxing. Not too noisy. There's bar and restaurant seating to choose from. Value: 5/5 It was a nice value. Good serving sizes, nothing too expensive, and fast solid service. Opportunities for Learning: 3/5 This is a typical sushi restaurant. Many differ roles and combinations. So while not a whole lot to learn, you can learn something if you're looking. read more

There are certain restaurants that quietly earn your loyalty, and Green Papaya is one of them for us. We have been coming here for over two years, and this visit reminded us exactly why. We started with the sampler appetizer, which is a great way to experience multiple flavors at once. The crab rangoon and coconut shrimp were standouts, both perfectly prepared. Susan ordered her favorite Tom Kha soup, which has a noticeable spice level and a depth of flavor that keeps us ordering it every time. As sushi lovers, we were especially excited for the rolls. The Tiger Roll completely exceeded expectations and earned our Best of the Best designation. That is something we reserve for truly exceptional dishes. The Tropical Roll was also impressive, with a unique combination of spicy scallops, mango, and white tuna. Service is friendly and engaging, and while the robot server adds a fun touch, it can be a bit distracting during quieter moments. If you enjoy high quality sushi and a polished atmosphere, this is a place you will appreciate. read more

I often forget this place is here. I do like Green Papaya and typically enjoy our visits. Tonight was no different. We shared a tempura appetizer and then our entrees. My wife had the eggplant and I had the Thai Ginger. Both were tasty. I did get mine a little spicy and came out with the right sizzle. My only complaint is the water. I drink water at most meals. The water is not good. No amount of fruit is going to help. Instead, we ended up getting a hot sake. That was a good choice. read more

Really popping on a Friday evening. Staff was attentive. I ordered the basil fried rice with tofu which was pretty good. I got it with 2/5 spice but definitely could've done with a 3 as there was very minimal spice Ordered a drunken noodle to go and that was also quite flavorful. read more

They took our reservation for a party of 10 for a Birthday Celebration. However, just before our time to sit and people driving in from distances over an hour away, they Canceled our reservation and said they overbooked. We were I. The restaurant and they did not seemed bothered or sincere about the issue, just said "sorry" read more

After trying the location on blanding in Jacksonville, this location doesn't compare. Every dish ordered didn't live up to expectations from the blanding location. This location is much smaller, yet the serving time is very slow compared to the other location. Long wait times for food, appetizers and even drinks. Prices seem to be more expensive than the other location as well. My daughter order the teriyaki steak, something previously ordered at the other location, it didn't come out sizzling and tasted nothing like what they had before. Seating is limited as well so plan accordingly. read more

The location is great. Right off of 95 a block in from 210. The food is good. Lots to choose from our favorite is the calamari and the pineapple rice. Amazing. Another favorite is the ginger salad. Delicious. read more

We came to Green papaya on a recommendation. We got the booth we wanted. There was a dead roach under our booth. We informed the server and it was taken away immediately. I asked the waitress for a lemon drop martini. Wifey had the same old Mojito. Both entrees were full of flavor and deserving of all our praise. However, the star of the night was the spicy dragon roll. All the dishes were flavorful. I joined the Green Papaya club. Our first visit was very nice since my wife os always suggesting thai food. Conveniece amd flapral is what Green papaya had to offer. The ambience was blase but the food made up for the decor. Unil our next event... read more

Green Papaya - Thai Near Me - St Johns, Florida

Beautiful decor and surprisingly upscale vibe, but the food fell short. Black dragon roll: 2/5, basic and poorly constructed. The $17 price tag was not justified. House special roll: 3/5, not bad and the seaweed on top was a nice touch. Salmon and yellowtail sashimi: 4/5, tasted fairly fresh. Service: 4/5, Our waiter was fairly attentive but did not refresh our waters. The robot delivery and birthday song was delightful. read more

The food is okay. The mango sticky rice was disappointing for the size and cost. They skimp on the mango.

Loved this place! Gorgeous atmosphere inside. Little robots rolling around delivering food which felt otherworldly!! Perfect date night. Our server was so friendly and kind. She offered suggestions and took excellent care of us! I tried two of their specialty sushi rolls. The "Holiday Roll" had delicious tempura shrimp, mango, avocado, cream cheese, and crunch wrapped in soy paper, topped with kani, tobiko and special sauces!! Loved how the tobiko was all different colors. Very visually appealing!! Super yummy, full of big flavors and so many delightful textures working together for the perfect bite! I also tried the "New England Roll" which was a California roll topped with lobster salad, mango, mango sauce, and tobiko. The mango sauce is utterly delicious. Big flavors and great texture with this roll as well! Both rolls were slam dunks in my opinion!! Highly recommend and I'll definitely be back again to try some more delicious rolls!! read more

Green Papaya - Holiday Roll (left) and New England Roll (right) - Thai Near Me - St Johns, Florida

I dinned here last night and I couldn't wait any longer to write this review. first off, the table was dirty. The staff is rude and after I sat down, I watched a young girl get shoved by one of her fellow coworkers. I decided to keep on with my meal. After I got my food, my soup was cold and the silver-wear tasted like straight lemons. Also the silver-wear was water stained. When I asked for new silver-wear the server brought me some but it was still water stained And sour tasting. I payed my bill and left. Worst place ever. read more

Decided to try Green Papaya for the first time. Now this goes for all Green Papayas since I have never been to one. We walked in for lunch on a Saturday and wow this place is very nice on the inside and it very large. We sat down and saw they even have I starry night effect with shooting stars too. Oh, did I mention they have a robot?!?!! Our very friendly waitress came up and dropped off menus. They have drinks well priced at $10 each. I of course went with an Old Fashioned. They also have a lunch menu that is also well priced and it is available on Saturday too. I was feeling saucy and hadn't had Pad Thai in awhile (well good Pad Thai) so I went with that with Beef and they had sushi specials and the Oceanroll was calling my name. Our food came out quickly and looked very good. fat pieces of fish in the sushi roll and a nice serving of Pad Thai with plenty of beef. This was of sure some of the better Pad Thai I had had lately too. Can't stand the flavorless overly sweet stuff you find around now. I also did try the Fresh Mango with Chicken. This unfortunately was on the over sweet side which makes sense. It is for sure similar to Sweet and Sour Chicken. I will say for the most part we all really enjoyed our lunch. Great friendly service, beautiful inside, great food and prices. For sure try them out if your looking to mix up with some quality Thai and sushi. read more

Green Papaya - Tom Yum with Tofu - Thai Near Me - St Johns, Florida

Had some really mediocre food with some incredibly mediocre service. Of all of the green papaya locations I've been to, this is hands down the worst. If you're accustomed to the food and service of the other locations, you won't find it here. I honestly don't see this place staying in this location for much longer. read more

Really enjoyed dinner here with my husband. The clear soup was great, I also had a shrimp tempura sushi roll ( I know it's boring but I think it shows the quality of restaurant when they have a good one?) and I had some curry. 'T was delicious. I didn't have anything to drink but my husband did and enjoyed it. They had robots that delivered the food, it was a fun new thing to experience. Overall really enjoyed myself. read more

We love the sushi here only reason they only get 4 stars is because seems their water softener is not working correctly and the water is terrible. Hopefully they can fix this problem. Taps had the same issue but they were able to get a new system. read more

First time here. Quick service. Food was ok. Our tuna tataki appetizer was the best part and the most delicious of all other items. Tom yum soup was lacking flavor and missing that unique Tom yum taste. For my curry salmon I asked for no rice and extra veggies instead, and they charged me extra without letting me know. read more

Came in with a large group that was somewhat disorganized. Staff was very helpful and patient and the food was great

Went last night to celebrate my wife's birthday. Food and service wasn't great. The Mai Tai wasn't good. The menu has Quail egg as an ingredient to go with the Tuna Tartare appetizer but it didn't have it when it came out. The server said they don't do it anymore and would let the owner know the menu still says it. The Crispy Garlic Duck wasn't great. The duck has more of a tempura-fried taste/texture, not what you would typically think of when you order a crispy duck dish. They kindly brought out a piece of cheesecake at no charge for my wife's birthday, but it tasted very freezer-burned. read more

I don't want to waste my time writing a review...so I will this one simple Yuck. Questions?

Tried to go here for Christmas Eve as we go here every year. Walked in and the place was empty but they asked if we had reservations. So they told us because we were a party of 6 and didn't have reservations we needed to wait 40 minutes. We asked if we could sit at 2 tables and her response was "we don't do it like that". Will never go back. read more

A large dining room with a huge bar and kitchen visible to patrons. Service was excellent - our server handled special requests and recipe modifications to accommodate special needs easily and professionally. Thai and sushi cuisine with an extensive menu - although we are used to Thai restaurants offering Thai iced coffee - not available here. They do make Thai iced tea, but it just isn't the same taste. Sorry, it's one of the main things we judge Thai restaurants on. We ordered a number of sushi rolls and the kana salad, all excellent - so the sushi side of the house is very good. I think if we were going out for Thai cuisine we would stick with our favorite Thai-only restaurant in Jax. read more

I've been reading the excellent reviews about other Green Papaya locations for a long time. Now that there is one closer to home, I finally had a chance to experience what I've been missing and it didn't disappoint. The owner's daughter Nina let us know they just opened about a month ago. Pretty big menu with Thai, sushi, and hibachi. We ordered some Roti canai, a black dragon roll, the mouth watering roll, and duck with golden curry 5 level spice. I would've ordered above the max but I was splitting it with my son. The roti really hit the spot and that was after a 15 min drive home, the black dragon with eel and shrimp tempura was excellent, and the mouth watering was very good. The duck was well executed with 3 breasts and a great flavor profile. I know spice level is subjective and in my opinion, could have been hotter. Add me to your list of fans!! read more

Two visits here so far and I'm a fan. First visit here they weren't fully functioning with their bar yet but the space is so intriguing and the food is so fresh. The flavors are there for both the Thai dishes and the sushi. I'm equal opportunity for both sections of the menu. read more
