I love lemongrass so much!!!! Everything is so flavorful. They have a good lunch special, and I would highly recommend the dirty rice. I'm not a huge beef jerky fan, but this meat is so tasty and well seasoned. The portion is a big size too. Definitely enough to share. read more

I was pretty excited about dropping in here. The reviews seemed good but I should I read them and not just gone with the 4 1/2 stars. We paid $52 for 3 dishes, 2 lunch specials and an order of orange chicken and we were just disappointed. The pad Thai was small and had little flavor beside the tamarind. The mild gra-paw fried rice had no spice and the rice was on the sticky side (a little overcooked). The orange chicken was not crispy but we still liked the flavor but for $18, it was a very small portion. Customer service was good. Order was done in 15minutes even though the restaurant was full. Nice ambiance. Not a good value and not great flavor. read more

My wife & I were just here in town overnight & looking for something light for dinner. After reading some reviews we chose Lemongrass. Don't think we could have made any better choice. Menu was diverse & very different from our usual Chinese restaurant back home. Our food was very fresh & flavorful, service was excellent. If we were local, this restaurant would absolutely be one that we would patronize. read more

Writing this sitting in the restaurant because I'm super annoyed. They had a "huge" order ahead of us but didn't tell us that the wait would be half hour+. Had to change the order to to go. There were 4.5 small pieces of chicken in the curry lunch. Which costs $16. Insane. The food is great but their communication is sht. Will update if it's made right. read more

Service and ambiance was great! We tried the lemongrass bomb and the pad Thai with chicken. Both dishes were delicious! The lemongrass bomb could definitely be shared by 3 people, there were 2 of us and we still had a whole meal for tomorrow. I would also recommend coming for an early dinner or be prepared to wait a bit. We went at 5 on a Saturday and didn't have any problems, but if you come around 6 or later there may be a little wait to be seated. read more

Read the reviews and had rather high expectations. Lemongrass did not disappoint. Dining alone, I only ordered one dish: Pad Thai. It was the best I've had in quite some time, perhaps dating back 20 years to good meals enjoyed at Thai restaurants in West Hollywood. Very generous portion, which was appreciated after biking 60 miles earlier in the day along the Hennepin Canal. Took my takeout to Wake Brewery and paired it with their nice ESB (Wake Sink Fast-Let Go; brewed with Sichuan peppercorns). The next day, I was going to go for lunch but they were doing some work on the kitchen and weren't open. Will go again if I'm ever in Moline in the future. Restaurant is conveniently located downtown and parking was relatively easy. read more

OK. This was just okay but I concede I'm spoiled when it comes to Asian food given (1) I'm Asian and (2) I travel quite a bit and spoiled by Asian eats everywhere. My college self would have enjoyed it more since there weren't a lot of Asian eateries. (1) Server was nice but messed up MY order and I waited around an extra 15 minutes to make me the wor wonton soup. When it finally came out, it wasn't what i expected. Wontons were very DRY ground white chicken. Would have been better if they were pork. Noodles were meh. Broth was bland. The server did NOTHING in terms of the inconvenience and basically blamed it on me ordering the "wrong thing". She insisted I would have liked something spicy. When I told her I'm not a fan of spicy, she looked at me like I had two heads. (2) Hubby did enjoy the very saucy yakisoba noodles with tofu. He ate the whole bowl. (3) We both enjoyed the crab rangoons and the orange dipping sauce. (4) Good list of alcohol choices. Hubby enjoyed his cherry bomb IPA from a local IOWA brewery. (5) No desserts. None. No mango sticky rice. Nothing. WTH??? I don't think we'll be stopping by any time soon. read more

The pork cracklings were a little odd, and I felt that they didn't really add much, but I'm assuming that its consistent with traditional Thai presentation and I was hungry and portion thoroughly filled me up. My family also enjoyed many of the other dishes as well. Also the staff are awesome and remember you. This was a good version of this dish, and packed a punch! Lots of places are afraid to make it spicy when requested, but this was wonderful and was full of spice! The food was very delicious and filling and perfect for cold weather comfort.

We've never been disappointed one bit in this place. Food is awesome, ambiance is great, and customer service is the best! Whatever we order here tastes good. It's a bit pricey but the food is really worth it. This is a place that you should visit whenever you go to the Quad Cities. read more

The food here is delicious! I would suggest the pad thai, although I've never had a bad meal here. Prices are great and the location is very convenient. The servers are always friendly! read more

I'm still trying to find somewhere that has soup as good as your coconut lemongrass soup. It's my most favorite thing ever.

Once we walked in we were greeted by the owner, who is a super sweet lady. The owner was really helpful in helping us figure out some recommendations for us based on our interests and what we've previously tried at other Thai restaurants. She was so patient and kind to us, and I can tell that she was enthused to tell us about the different dishes. Just by looking at the menu I could tell the Thai food here was different from what's served in my city, so I was even more excited to try it. I ordered the Tom yum goong and it was amazing!!! Everything was fresh and the shrimp and egg was perfectly cooked. The combination of the ingredients were perfectly balanced in the dish and I enjoyed EVERY bite. Me and my friend shared our mango sticky rice and the Thai custard sticky rice and they were really good as well. It makes me sad that this place isn't closer to me because I would definitely go there again in a heartbeat!!!

Why do servers take advantage of folks....i ordered the side of white rice. We also got an Egg Roll. Bill came and there was the charge for fried rice...as I said we never got;( Everything was yummy!

I ordered via the website and my order was fresh, hot and ready upon my arrival. Upon entering I was greeted to great smelling food and a friendly and observant staff. For food we had the crab Rangoon, chicken wings and general tso chicken with plain fried rice, and sesame chicken and Lo mein. I highly recommend the crab Rangoon and this is by far one of my top places for crab Rangoon and you can actually taste the crab meat too. The chicken wings were amazing too and fried and seasoned to perfection. The general tso chicken was also very delicious too. My least favorite item was the plain fried rice but maybe it was lack luster because it was plain. The sesame chicken was very delicious and I liked it more than the general tso chicken too. We ordered both extra spicy as well. I did really enjoy the lo mein too but if you're not a garlic fan it can be overwhelming. I highly recommend them and will be back.
