    Pad Thai
    Ken K.

    Had another great meal here tonight. This is really good Thai food... the place is never busy when I'm here. We were literally the only people tonight at 6pm. I don't understand it. Get in here and get some !

    Kids Fried Rice with chicken
    Laurie M.

    Came here for my daughter's birthday dinner. We were a party of 5. Not a busy Saturday night. Our apps came out quick, but the sauces were cold which defeated the purpose of the hot food. Had to ask for appetizer plates twice. Entrees did not come out together, which was another downer. There was about 5 minutes between when the first two entrees came out and the third and another 4-5 minutes between entrees 4 & 5. This sucks when two people are sharing

    Street Noodle soup
    Jay J.

    I have been passing by this place and decided to order on DoorDash. The food arrived hot and all containers were sealed to not have any spills during delivery. I ordered the street noodles with chicken. It does put me in the mind of a pho and Tom yum soup due to all the flavors. The portion was generous, enough for two servings. I will try this restaurant in person the next time I drive by.

    I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. My order is always correct and made to order. It's always hot and ready for pickup when I arrive. Today they were closed for dine in (2/27/25) but stated they took a few online orders . I was one of the lucky ones to get an online order in.

    Pad Thai

    Food: served with two wedges of lime tucked into a corner, a mix of noddles, chicken, pieces of fried eggs, and bean spouts and a small amount of shredded carrots. It also has a small container with crushed peanuts. Not greasy or salty. Spice level options 1-10. At a 7 spice level it was mild at best. Food temperature was perfect. Flavor was decent, could use more chicken. Portions size was a bit disappointing and overpriced for $16, container is shallow. Service: attentive Ambiance: casual

    Drunken Noodles, Pad Kee Mao with beef
    Dianna S.

    Tried out this new Thai place in Bartlett last night. The service was very good. Our server was kind, patient, and attentive. She came to check on us quite a bit. I forgot to get her name. We ordered the appetizer of spring rolls. They were good and fresh with a different type of sauce. One was more sweet and a little spicy and the other one was savory and tasted like it might've had some vinegar, soy sauce with hoisin sauce in it. We were looking for peanut sauce. Decided to share the green curry with chicken. It had crunchy vegetables of bell peppers, onions, and carrots and a serving of rice. It wasn't too hot and tasted delicious. We ordered the Drunken Noodles with beef. We like the presentation with the steak placed on the top. The vegetables and noodles were cooked very well and still had crunch and bite to them. None of the ingredients were over cooked. The food was very good. The restaurant is decorated with Asian flare and wood like floors. It has been remodeled from the previous place. It seems to have a more open and organized feel to it. The parking lot is spacious as the restaurant is located in a strip mall. I will return to try more of the dishes available.

    Pad See Ew
    Ally H.

    Got this Thai food delivered, so I don't know anything about the service or ambiance. However, the food is delicious!!! The papaya salad is a must and so fresh and flavorful. The tom kah soup is PACKED with flavor and I wish we got a large (I wish it was served with rice though). Pad Thai and pad see ew were good and full of chicken which was pleasantly surprising. The only down side was that we ordered a 10/10 spice level and it was more like a 5. I wish they would have really listened to our request. Overall I would definitely order again!

    Fried Spring Rolls
    Anna L.

    Service is good. Food came out pretty fast. Staff was nice. Thai tea wasn't too sweet. The portion is pretty big. Drunken noodles was a bit salty for me but it wasn't bad. I like the pad Thai a lot. It wasn't too tangy like other pad Thai places. The fried spring rolls were good. I think this is a better Thai place around Memphis. I would come back and try the rest of the menu for sure.

    Moo Ping
    Daley A.

    Visited this place & it was amazing! My bf LOVED the Tom Kha Soup and the Moo Ping (Thai pork skewers). The soup was creamy & a slight hint of lemon (I think). Very creamy & refreshing. The pork skewers (Moo Ping) came with delicious sticky rice & a vinegar-y sauce. A little goes a long was in my opinion. I got the spring rolls which came with a different kind of vinaigrette-type sauce (light yellow colored) & a thicker dark sauce similar to Hosin but with a twist is the best I can describe it. I also got the Drunken Noodle with Pork & no bell pepper. LOTS of onion, which I love. But if you don't, be sure to say no onion. The server was very nice & busy, but attentive to the best of her ability. The atmosphere is quiet & cozy. Will definitely be returning. ^_^

    Petals of a Peony is one of the best restaurants in Memphis, and I wish I had tried it sooner. I…read moremade the mistake of assuming it's just another American Chinese takeout spot. It is not. It is a Michelin recognized (i.e., fancy) authentic Szechuanese restaurant. While I can't comment on the authenticity, the flavors are deeper and bolder than any Chinese cuisine I've ever had. My brother and I fight over which is better, the boiling fish or the dry pot. Really, everything we've had has been excellent. It's possible to go affordable here with something like a fried rice dish, but I recommend being adventurous and trying something new. Every dish is sharing size and a table of two could eat their fill with one or two dishes. They get busy during peak times but they're good at turning tables and I've never had a bad wait. I'll note that the food comes out suspiciously quick, seemingly regardless of what we order it takes around 5-10 minutes, even when we brought a larger party.

    FAVORITE SPICY FOOD OMG I LOVE THIS PLACE…read more I legit am in love with this place. I LOVE how the food had spice but it isn't overwhelming. It adds to the flavor without being the only thing to the food. I just wish I had more people who liked spicy food to come eat here with me. I came back with some friends from out of town and it was still amazing. My fav thing is still on the Lunar New Year Menu: the Sichuan Mala Dry Pot. It had amazing flavor, good spice, and everything in it was just awesome. I've found a similar thing on the regular menu so I won't have withdrawals except for the fact that I genuinely want to eat here every week and can't hahah To try: Mapo Tofu Appetizer: Steamed Chicken with Chili Sauce Edamame Beef Spicy Crispy Chicken Sichuan Style Fried Rice Dandan Noodles Spicy Dry Noodles Loved: - House Special Mala Xiang Guo Dry Pot - Lunar New Year: Sichuan Mala Dry Pot (ABSOLUTE FAV) - Peony Chicken Liked: - Beef and Broccoli - Fried Rice: Yangzhou Style - Lunar New Year: Homestyle Whole Fish - Lo Mein: chicken, shrimp, and extra spice - Twice Cooked Pork Ok: - Tea: Jasmine - Lunar New Year: Garlic Pork Ribs Disliked: - Lunar New Year: Four Happiness Meatball - Traditional Kung Pao Chicken

    Decided to treat myself for a lunch date and thought of my favorite spots that I haven't visit in…read moreawhile. Went as soon as they opened up and was the only one sitting while others were ordering for pickup. I sat by the window inside but it does have a nice shaded outdoor patio area. The waitress was attentive and knowledgeable. She even answered my question about the Hattoek. As I was finishing my meal, she put my noodles on the to-go container since it can be tricky. I ordered the Fried Mandus, medium curry ramen (sub chicken for extra beef) & Hattoek. It's just as I remembered it. The curry sauce was yummy and the beef paired perfectly. Next time, I'll get extra veggies with it too. 1st time trying Hattoek and it was nice. The ice cream was a little nutty and donuts filled with warm cinnamon. As long as this place is opened, I will always be a customer.

    Server was really sweet, she was new but still very attentive, but I've been going here for YEARS…read moreyall. do not waste your time going here. it's cheap prices but you literally get cheap quality. this is stuff you genuinely can make at home. Their ramen is literally top ramen instant packs with chicken bouillon cubes and maybe some seasonings...& their appetizers are always greasy. Mandu's aren't really even mandus. Their jjangmeon is greasy as well and not even authentic to its real taste. I gave it 3 more tries before I realized yeah..this place has gone downhill terribly. I didn't like one of my dishes and i specifically told them what I didn't like about it and they still charged me because the chef said "I made it correctly" and I was very disappointed because a kimchi soup should NEVER taste tomatoe-y EVER. I looked back in the kitchen and saw white folks in the kitchen and knew yeah, no. this establishment has no soul or care. There are better Korean options here in Memphis, after some time this place has lost all its care and soul. Like who serves appetizers on plate that says "oh shucks" and it's a picture of oysters...it gives CHEAP & careless.
