Fried Oreos
Jada P.

The customer service was really good, sadly, the food was not. My partner ordered the General Tso & the entire meal was not good at all. The rice was so sour, almost like it was drowned in salt. The chicken, also not great (barely even tasted like chicken). I ordered a JSU Roll with hopes it would taste good and fresh but you can clearly taste the staleness from the shrimp tempura inside the sushi that it is not freshly made. Other than that it was actually not too bad! But my partner's Mango smoothie tasted like watered down sugar :( my Strawberry Banana smoothie on the other hand was really good (highly recommend). We also got Fried Oreos but they also were not fresh. They were pretty soggy and didn't taste great either. For $36 it was not worth it :( Take your money elsewhere, or maybe just go for the Strawberry & Banana smoothies!

More chicken than salad!!

This place is a favorite with locals. Owner Bob is the sweetest guy and makes great sushi. I love their tofu wrapped pieces.

Went to KT Pho today. I ordered the General Tso's chicken - It was some of the best of this dish…read moreI've ever had. The chicken was crispy and the sauce was really, really tasty. The portions were pretty good sized; I had to take some home. The service was really good as well; my cup never went empty and our server was attentive without being overly so. The atmosphere is fine - you could actually hold a conversation without having to shout - Will definitely be back!

Not doing good KT Pho...this is the second bad review after a week and it's unfortunately for 2…read moreseparate orders in 2 days. We may have to reconsider doing business with you if I have to meticulously check the bag for literally everything. 1st order yesterday- large order, forgot crisps for all 4 soups ordered and no silverware. 2nd order today- a combo order and we got home and no rice...REALY? NO RICE‍ It's just not that hard. The attention to detail is severely lacking. And since I'm on here, I have to let you know, it was hit or miss with the tempura chicken for my orange chicken order last night, some were tender juicy deliciousness and the rest were dry and tasted old or over cooked or just plain cold (are they frozen???) and I waited at the drive through for them to make my order so why would they be cold Do better or we will give our business to Yamato's.

I came one night during our first cold snap of the season with a couple friends, looking to warm up with some soupy goodness. I ordered the classic chicken pho and dressed it up with all the bean sprouts, lime, and chili oil. It's perfect without all that, but the chili oil mixed in with the broth really sends it over the edge. We also started with an order of spring rolls where I asked our lovely waitress to "surprise us" with her favorite. I believe what she brought us was spam spring rolls, which I never would have ordered of my own volition, but were fantastic. The dipping sauce was great, too. Something in the peanut family but not fully a peanut sauce, I think. This place is run like a well-oiled machine. They churn out food quickly and run some no-funny-business service. Exactly what I'm looking for for a weeknight dinner. Prices are great, it's a huge bowl of pho. I'll be back here for sure the next time I need a pho phix.

Kati Thai Cuisine in Gadsden is your first and last stop for Authentic Thai in Gadsden!!…read more We were in town visiting our grandson and were craving Real Thai food. This little place is exactly the kind of hidden gem you hope to find--completely unassuming from the outside, a true "hole in the wall," but serving absolutely incredible food with stellar service inside! We started with the Nam Sod, and it instantly took me back to my childhood. It was served the traditional way with crisp cabbage leaves for scooping up every bite of the spicy, flavorful ground pork. Fresh, authentic, and absolutely delicious. I ordered the Tom Yum Goong; which is my scale for measuring a Thai restaurant's authenticity, and it was perfection. The broth had that unmistakable umami flavor with just the right balance of spice, tanginess, and aromatics. The prawns were large, fresh, and cooked perfectly along with the perfect mix of herbs. My husband ordered the Pad Kra Pow with chicken at a FOUR-PEPPER chili heat, and it was exactly what he was hoping for--bold, spicy, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor. Our daughter stuck with her okd favorite, Pineapple Fried Rice with chicken and shrimp. She's quite the rice connoisseur, and her enthusiastic thumbs-up said everything that needed to be said! The service made the experience even better. Our sweet blonde server was warm, attentive, and even took the time to share travel tips and local points of interest around the area, making us feel like welcomed guests instead of just customers. Great food, friendly people, generous portions, and authentic flavors--everything you hope for when you're looking for Thai cuisine. We'll absolutely be back again before we leave Gadsden!

This is a quaint little place. My daughter and I went for lunch around 1:30. There were only a few…read morepeople there so service was fast and the food was hot, The staff is very friendly.

We were driving around when we saw their food truck parked at the parking lot across from Quintard…read moreMall. Nice staff. Fun anime concepts. Cool logo design. No seating. You order and go. Unless you park or sit at the curb. The broth is good. We spoke with the staff, most of their ingredients are imported. To get this ramen in Anniston, AL... it is great. Especially, not expecting to get this in this area.

I didn't really have the highest expectations for this small town AL food truck. I've been all over…read morethe US and out of the country a time or two, and few places in AL rank in the "great food" category for me... however... I was pleasantly surprised by this gem of a food truck parked in a cold and windy Martin's parking lot in Oxford, AL. Service was friendly and quick. My order - 4 bowls, 2 onigiri, a bag of chips, and two drinks - was all complete in about 5 minutes! My daughter got the Ponyo bowl (most of the menu is anime-themed bowls), and everyone else did a build your own 3 topping bowl. I was happy to see there was actually a vegan broth option, but pretty disappointed that there wasn't a plant-based protein option. (Disappointed by no protein, but also disappointed by the price.... I got my bowl w no meat, but the price was the same as the meat bowls.) Taste-wise, everything was pretty good. My 3 toppings were narutomaki , menma, and corn, and I added some crunchy garlic, black sesame seeds, and onion oil. The flavor from the crunchy garlic and onion oil was great! The biggest let down was I'm pretty sure it was just spaghetti noodles and not actual ramen. The right noodles make all the difference. The onigiri was pretty good. Would not order the kimchi chicken again, would definitely recommend the crunchy garlic pork, but I wish there was a vegetarian option for those too. It was pretty cold out when I stopped by (December), so I liked the hot tea/coffee options (all canned). The matcha latte was the perfect size for me and surprisingly not too sweet! So overall - was it the best ramen I've ever had? No. But also far from the worst. It exceeded my expectations for a small town AL ramen food truck. I'll definitely stop by again on one of my trips through.
