The red curry with chicken and add pineapple was sooo good. the drunken noodles was also amazing.

This is not a Thai restaurant. It is your typical asian transplant operation and not authentic Thai. The food is mediocre and the restaurant is not set up in the beautiful Thai way. We will not return. If anyone knows of an authentic Thai restaurant, please post the name. read more

Being new to Melissa I wanted to try a new Chinese food place instead of driving down all the way to my regular place, before this incident, I had came here twice and got the same thing both times, shrimp fried rice no veggies and shrimp lo mein no veggies. The third time was no different, I got the same thing, placed the order, paid for it, and went home to eat. Unfortunately while eating, my sister's kids meal fried rice had a hair in it. Right after finding it I called the store and told them that I found it, the lady who answered was super nice and apologized for the mistake, she told us that we could come in and get our order remade. Both orders. We went in today, a day after, and let the guy and lady know that we were coming in for our remake order. They found it odd but started to make out order, as we were patiently waiting the guy comes up to us and claims he made the order right, and that it was our fault for making the order confusing, he said and I quote "check it next time." Having your own business is risky enough and telling someone that, 2 young girls to be exact, is incredibly unprofessional and rude. Safe to say that I will never be back, i'll gladly go back to China Express in Anna Tx!! read more

This place serves Chinese, sushi, and Thai food all in one spot. The Thai dishes are actually pretty good, but they're cooked more in a Chinese style, so some of them come out a little greasy. The sushi tastes fine, but it doesn't seem to be their main focus -- not many people around us were ordering it. It's a convenient location, especially since there's not much else nearby, and the food tastes good for the area. But if you head down to Plano or Garland, you'll find better options. read more

Luv the environment especially the vending machines, Course à pied over there is fun! I luv there food, staff reminds me of different parts of the wrld. I happy luv ordering online read more

So, so bland. Thai food is meant to have spice to it, especially when you order something that is SPICY. I ordered the Tiger Cry to go and the "traditional Thai hot sauce" is sweet. The steak is seasoned so poorly I just dumped salt on it to make it enjoyable. I was also given my order sideways so when I opened my bag all the food was pushed to one side. All in all, my husband likes their sushi. But for the price point (this was $20!!!!) and the taste this is not worth it. read more

Lau Ba Thai - Tiger Cry to go. Not spicy! - Thai Near Me - Melissa, Texas

The food is fixed fresh and comes steaming hot. The chicken and shrimp fried rice came with full servings of meat on top of delicious rice. The much special of two rolls and Miso soup was delicious. Plenty of sliced rolls of yellow fin and salmon. The soup was steaming hot and a great portion. We were pleased and will return. read more

This is an updated review to this place. Initially I gave this place 4 stars because of my first experience being here for lunch on and them being new. Since then I've been back about 5 or 6 times. It's literally the only ethnic food option in Melissa so far and those times I didn't want to drive for good Asian food. The place is clean, staff is nice. Menu seems fairly large.... Quality of food is normal to most "fast food Asian spots". Price point is very high, especially for the stir fry dishes and the portions are super small vs price and full of "filler" vs the meat. Example, my husband ordered the steak filet hibachi. Doesn't taste like filet and literally there are only a few pieces of the meat with tons of vegetables for an almost $30 entree. Sushi is not the best quality. Really had high hopes for this place; but it's just not that great. But this is only my experience here; I don't like giving bad reviews. read more

Tried a different sushi restaurant In Melissa and this one is far better!! My fiance and I both really liked it. The soup was flavorful and so were our dishes. The spring rolls were also nice and crispy with a soft inside. Service was quick. About 15 minute wait read more

Mediocre Thai food and horrible customer service. I have been there twice, never again won't waste my time or money. Better to drive to McKinney for some good Thai food and service. read more

We loved this place!! Tried it today. We had drunken noodles, gyoza, chicken hibachi with fried rice and a roll. Everything was fresh and made exactly as we ordered. We'll definitely return! read more

Got the food pretty quick, which was great. As far as the food goes you may think twice. I got fried rice , soup and entree, all bad. Plus I ordered Spring Roll and they were not in the bag. Spent $50.00 and should have got a couple of frozen dinner for 10.00. Don't don't do it unless nothing else is open read more

Menue is choose your own adventure: Chinese, Japanese, it Thailand. Good food. Well prepared. The kitchen is clean, and open. The prices are normal, and portions generous. A good Chinese food place ain't got to advertise. Their food brings ya back. And this place has that. read more

Consistently delicious! We eat here quite regularly. Their chicken pad Thai is on point. Perfect spice and the right amount of vegetables.

What? A really good Thai & Sushi eatery in my neighborhood!? Yes Our family (all adults now) went there together. Since we all have different food sensitivities, including need for gluten-free foods, we were impressed with their careful attention to detail, and how the person preparing the food was willing to come to our table to confirm things were correctly prepared too I asked for "seafood" as the protein for both my orders, and WOW! I got pretty high quality combination of seafood items in both dishes, including shrimp, which was perfectly cooked, All the food was delicious; and everyone enjoyed their meal, each of us commenting on how well-prepared our dishes were. Wish I had pictures to post, but we forgot to take some pix, which shows just how delicious everything was to us. The only thing they could do better on were the Thai drinks. In the Thai milk drink there was too much powdery sentiment in the bottom. One person ordered a Boba Tea, but got something else instead. My recommendation to the restaurant owners is to change the person who takes drink orders, as I believe she couldn't understand our English well--perhaps we have an accent as Texans However, we didn't even say anything or complain simply because the young lady who took our drink orders, prepared them, and brought them to the table was so sweet and caring! It seemed like a small issue bcuz we enjoyed her spirit of gentleness and kindness. We're going back later this week, and hope to meet the same amazing people there again. It is a family-run business. The couple there have 2 boys, very cute, and so well-behaved too! The kids were never allowed to just run around inside or use loud voices. The brothers seem like 'best friends', always helping each other and playing together. They often smiled at us, too. Those parents must be very attentive! We wish the family and the eatery the very best. read more

Was super excited to see a Thai restaurant in Melissa. Place looks good inside but sadly that's where it ends. The food was horrible. Everything was so super bland, the worst dish we got tonight was the pad Thai. It tastes like water, oil and lemons and for some reason it was spicy. Sadly this place will not last. Would I go back? No. read more

All about supporting local, but they have a ways to go to compete with Pho's Bistro in Mckinney. We order fried rice, Pad Thai and Pad Sew. Very bland! Pad Thai to spicy, fried rice was just that, very bland. Pad Sew is fast food type and could have made it at home better. If you want fast food Thai food this is your place. If you want quality Thai, drive the extra 7 minutes to Pho's Bistro. Way overpriced for the food quality you get. read more

We enjoyed everything we ordered. We also ordered the steak hibachi (not pictured). We will be back again in the future. read more

I have ordered sushi for pick up several times and dined in a few as well. The sushi is fresh tasting, maybe not the best I've had but fairly good quality. The service is somewhat like a fast food restaurant, as in that there is a drink fountain machine. The lady will bring you your food most of the time though. The out of controls roll and the monster roll are good and always my children's go to's. My husband tried a meat dish once and the portion size was good and he enjoyed it. I've tried the onion soup and it was very bland with just a few pieces of green onion in it. I guess it just wasn't what I was expecting. The prices are a bit high especially considering on the out of control wrong the rules itself are kind of on the small side. The service is friendly and overall I am happy that they are they're seeing as there's no other options for sushi in the area. read more

Food is pretty good. Have to pay a delivery fee of $5 and then the restaurant charges you almost $10 for a service fee. Then you tip the driver. read more

Ordered online and picked up. Food was hot and delicious. I love pad Thai and while this wasn't the best pad Thai I've ever had it was definitely passable and better than most. Sushi was great. Awesome to have close to home and available online. read more

Wonderful family run restaurant. Service is very friendly and they always have great food with lots of options. Recommend the Thai Curry Chicken and the Pan Fried Dumplings. Enjoy! read more

This is a place to order at the counter and receive your food in to-go containers. As a large group she did take our orders at the table. Everyone enjoyed their food. The food was brought to the table a few at a time instead of all at once - it was hot but everyone started eating at a different time. read more

We order to go quite often. Yummy food & lots of options. There's something for everyone here.

Their vegetable tempura is so delicious, i appreciate them putting together a vegetable tempura roll for me, it was very good! Quiet and relaxing ambiance, great service. read more

Absolutely LOVE this place! Amazing the staff is great and the food is truly wonderful

I will likely continue to go here on occasion when I need something quick for lunch since it is close to my house. I can only get it to-go, though. The atmosphere inside is not relaxing for a meal. The music is always way too loud. There are children running around the dining area (and in the kitchen). They added claw machines for toys. I'm all for extra revenue streams, but it definitely cheapens the atmosphere. As for the food, I've tried a few different items. All were okay, nothing spectacular. I travel all over the country for my work and often dine at similar places. I find that the best establishments have a specialty and don't try to offer too much. This one definitely is a Jack of all trades, master of none. I do feel the prices are high for the offerings, but I don't complain about pricing. They know what they need to be profitable, and I will not fault that. Overall it is worth trying, but just keep realistic expectations. You will not be over or underwhelmed. read more

Good Food and big menu with plenty to chose from. Definitely check them out if you enjoy Asian food!

If you don't like spicy don't order the orange chicken. So spicy kids and hubs couldn't eat it. I ordered the king crab roll. All I taste is avocado. Honestly got better from Kroger. read more

Does not taste like authentic Thai food. The Thai fried rice had no flavor only spice

Service was quick and the staff friendly. The food was very good. I recommend the Hibachi steak and the fried rice also very good. The Ambiance wasn't anything special but it was very clean which is all you can ask for in a place that is majority carry out. I'll definitely go back and try some more dishes. read more

As an Asian person, this is Americanized Asian food. The drunken noodles are bland and don't have the traditional veggies and sauces. Hopefully an actual good Asian place comes soon. read more

Two stars just because one seems rude. Was so excited to try this place! Ordered the beef fried rice and was so disappointed. Fourteen bucks for flavorless "fried rice" and a small pile of tough beef strips. So disappointing!!! read more

I love love love Thai, Japanese and sushi....none of which were good at this place. I was so super excited to try after reading comments about it on our neighborhood Facebook page when I should've looked at Yelp instead. Soooooo bland. Got the pangnan chicken curry - bland. Daughter got Japanese chicken fried rice, she said it was ok but wouldn't want it again (that was after adding a ton of soy sauce). Hubs got the California roll - he said the rolls at Sam's were far better. The dumplings were probably the best thing we got but that's really not saying much. Spent a lot of money for flavorless food. So disappointing and frustrating. We won't go back. read more
