We chose the restaurant side and it has nice decor. They also have a lot with ample parking. Staff is warm and friendly.

We started with potstickers. For our entrees, we ordered jumbo shrimp fried rice, shrimp with lobster sauce and shrimp pad see eiw. We enjoyed everything we ordered. There were quite a few patrons in the hibachi section which is where we plan on trying next time we stop in. Definitely a neighborhood staple and highly recommend if you're in the area.

We have dined-in, used carry out, and even catered for Christmas parties. We loved this place, until my most recent experience. On Tuesday, June 23, I wanted sushi and panang curry for my birthday dinner. It's a 30 minute drive from my house so 1 hour round trip to get carry out. I love their food so I was willing to make the trip - I ordered $160+ worth of food for a family of 5. Pick up was no problem. However, the overall quality of the food was TERRIBLE - super bland with all of the sushi rolls and even my fave roll from there, Godzilla was just AWFUL - didn't taste anything like it normally does. Three-fourths of the order was sushi so that was super disappointing. My daughters' chow mein didn't have any noodles - it was just straight vegetables. She wouldn't eat it bc she wanted the noodles. The panang curry was the only thing that tasted good, but that was only a small part of the order. I was able to speak to the manager (Peg) on the phone a couple days later and explained to her my experience and she basically acted like I was lying, making the whole thing up. That I was supposed to save the food we didn't eat in a cooler and bring it back to the restaurant that day to get some form of refund. That was the policy. Not only that, she also said their recipe has not changed nor had anyone else complain about the food that day. I explained that we already threw out the food so that wouldn't be feasible and she basically said then there was nothing she could do and that she had to follow this policy. I'm sorry but I'm not driving an hour to return the bad food that a restaurant served me - 1. How is that sanitary? 2. Why are you calling a loyal long time customer basically a liar? 3. What kind of customer service doesn't offer anything to a customer that had a bad experience at your restaurant? She didn't seem to care when I told her that MY FAMILY AND I WILL NEVER COME BACK! I couldn't believe that's how a manager would treat a customer especially one that had been coming back for many years and recommends it to others. NEVER AGAIN! BOTTOM LINE: RUN, this place has definitely gone downhill and their customer service is the worse I've ever seen. The only way to save this place is fire that manager, fix the quality of your food, and treat your customers better

While visiting my sister over the weekend, we decided to order Chinese food for delivery. I ordered…read morean Egg Roll, which was good, nice, and crispy. For my entree, I ordered Hong Sue Chicken with vegetables. The chicken was good, with a fair amount of meat and nice-sized pieces, but I didn't care for the vegetables; there was not much crunch. I also ordered Chicken Fried Rice to share. I didn't care for it at all. My sister ordered Beef Chop Suey. She said the meat was tender, but it had this dark gravy sauce. She ordered the Chicken Lo Mein as a side dish to share but didn't like it. That was a disappointment again with the same dark gravy sauce. My sister asked the owner if she could get a free Egg Roll, and he said yes because it was over $25.00. That was a nice touch, but she asked me to try her Egg Roll because she said she had enough to eat, so I tried hers and took one bite. It didn't taste like mine, which was good, but not hers. The order taker charged a $4.00 delivery fee but didn't tell us because I gave him a cash tip, too. The delivery was fast, and the driver politely thanked us for our order. If you look at the lady's review from 03/17/24, mine was the same as hers. I would never go back to this restaurant again. I usually check the restaurant out first on Yelp, but my sister said her friend orders from there and likes it, so I trusted her judgment. We didn't save anything for later but instead gave everything to a homeless person.

Oh, and they have a great drink special on Thursdays, so plan your visit accordingly if you can!

It is listed as a Vietnamese crepe, but instead of the traditional, crispy rice flour crepe meant to be torn and wrapped in lettuce, I received a soft, soggy, French-style crepe. Because it lacked that essential crispiness, the crepe completely fell apart, making it impossible to wrap in lettuce or dip into the sauce. Furthermore, instead of being served with adequate traditional herbs and leafy lettuce, it came with standard iceberg lettuce. When I voiced these concerns to my waitress, she simply told me "that's how it's made" and made no effort to correct the dish or offer an alternative. I expected a much higher standard of authenticity and customer service from Thithi's restaurant.

While I was eating, I noticed that I could not taste any meat at all. After mixing the box up, I found that the BBQ pork was chopped into such tiny pieces that it was impossible to taste the texture of the meat. This has never happened before during my previous visits. I called the restaurant and spoke with the manager, who explained that the kitchen now chops the meat into tiny pieces. I mentioned to him that the rice was tasteless and did not taste the way it should without the proper cut of BBQ pork. Although the manager kindly suggested that I come back in so you could add more meat, I declined the offer. I wanted to bring this to your attention as a long-time customer to explain why I will no longer be patronizing your restaurant. I hope you will consider adjusting how the dish is prepared for future customers.

Love love LOVE this place! Everything about this place makes me smile. This place is so casual its awesome! I come in here often during my lunch break and I always get the combo meal with the shrimp fried rice, orange chicken, and the Mongolian chicken. Both meats always taste amazing and fresh! Its located in a little plaza, which I appreciate because the parking lot is very convenient! For a fast food restaurant that does take out, dine-in, AND delivery, this place is pretty awesome and quick which is awesome for people who come for a quick bite! I always have extra time before going back to work. There are often some festivals that go around here sometimes such as Oak Fest and they always participate! You can bet I always go their to eat when I do attend the festival. The only issue I have with this restaurant is that sometimes the waiters/waitresses mutter among themselves but thats totally fine! Its normal to talk on the daily. read more

WOW! This place looks just like an ordinary "small plaza" type of the fast food restaurant. But holly shutter! WHAT A GREAT FOOD AND HOW AFFORDABLE IT IS!!! I've been trying Chinese food all around the NA, but this place is just way above the average. Inside is very clean and neat. Chairs actually have cushions, so you can fully enjoy the food. The lady who worked here today was very fast and easy to communicate. Altough, do not expect the "Western" welcome. This may come across as "rude" if you are not aware of the cultural differences. She was awesome! Visit this place, you won't regret! read more
