The best pad Thai! Every pad Thai I get everywhere else is always disappointing compared to Orchid's.

Everything was delicious! Hot soup and entrees. Very good service too. The dining room was comfortable. I look forward to our next visit. read more

The food was very good and staff very friendly. Went there for lunch, which comes with sweet and sour soup. I couldn't eat it as it isn't vegan, but we ordered Tom Yum that serves two and it was delicious. Spicy and sour, enough to for 3 people. I took some home. The only thing was that it had a lot of lemon grass hard pieces so we both had to spit out plenty. I went with eggplant tofu with rice, and my companion got the same, but with noodles. They were able to accommodate without any problem. Both were very good although not enough eggplant as the name of the dish suggests. Portion is enough for lunch. I assume the dinner size are larger. I'll definetly be coming back to try more dishes. read more

Used to be my favorite when Ale and Nina were there when i Worked in the area. However, today I returned and gave the new ownership a shot. Was very disappointed, my rangoons looked like they were sitting around for hours, overcooked, my Thai iced tea was horrible, way to sweet, only had enough for one- THANK GOD, my Pad Thai was just ok. They raised the prices significantly and lowered the quantity of food. I will NOT be returning! read more

This place deserves more than 5! They care about everyone that comes into the restaurant and will always try their best to give you the nicest service possible. The food is flavorful and delicious, it shows they have experience cooking Thai food, I'm a huge foodie, and eat lots of Thai, Chinese, etc. foods. The ambiance is very nice and calming I love eating here with friends. read more

I've been having this place since I was a little kid probably 10 years now and the food is always amazing the staff even more amazing no other Thai food place can ever compare to this one read more

Wife and I went last night. It is in a small retail center at the NW corner of Square Lake and Livernois Rds. WHAT A DELIGHT! The interior has been newly decorated and is clean and well done. Each table had a clean white tablecloth and metal utensils. The staff was prompt and pleasant, stopping by our table several times to inquire if we needed anything. We ordered hot and sour soup (spicey) and the Cashew Dinner, which was excellent and plentiful. The price was modest. We highly recommend it to our friends. read more

This food looks like my dogs dog food. And the food is horrible and the owners wife is so rude to me and my family I strongly don't like this restaurant. And also here's a tip fix the decoration in the restaurant, and also make your food more appealing on the websites page. Horrible restaurant. read more

So delicious; great portions, and friendly staff highly recommend! The restaurant was very welcoming and clean.

Such great service and delicious food! Huge portions, I had enough for three separate meals. read more

Orchid Cafe - N1. Pad Thai Dinner - Thai Near Me - Troy, Michigan

This used to be my favorite restaurant, it still is for the Panang because the sauce is authentic. I have to pick out the lemongrass and dried leaves because they aren't edible, but no complaints. The last few deliveries were not executed well and the portions vary. The packaging failed them a few times, with melted Styrofoam or the new leaky plastic boxes. I wish it were as perfect as the first time I had it 4 years ago. It would be nice to have more options, like extra cilantro or side sauces. It has become my second choice. That's if they are open. read more

Good food, good amount of food for the price. Dine in had good soup, i enjoyed the curry chicken, chicken pad thai

I dined in for the first time and was not disappointed. Delicious food as always and prompt service! read more

Dine-in is closed still. Guess I should have asked when I called about their hours. I had assumed the dine-in would be open by now:( Ordered a curry (C9) with chicken and steamed tofu, medium spicy and a curry noodle with chicken and steamed tofu and veggies too, sides only, not full portions off the adds and a bag of shrimp cracker. Free sanitizer for guests. $33.39. The bag of shrimp crackers are big. I don't know how much it costs since I never received an itemized bill at all for any part of my meal. The shrimp crackers are yummy, crunchy and addicting too. The curry noodles spilled out of the styrofoam container into the bag and it was placed between my feet on the floor to keep to from moving during the drive. The curry noodles are hot plus and decent, the noodles are thicker than we are used to. The add-on portions aren't bad. The curry C9 is okay. Curry sauce was okay. Meat is a bit fatty on a few pieces. read more

Orchid Cafe - Best Thai Iced Tea in Michigan!!!! - Thai Near Me - Troy, Michigan

The food is great, love the summer rolls and peanut sauce it's so thick and the best sauce I've had any where the only complaint I have is the portion on the noodles I always ask for a large and with extra broccoli and it always comes in a small box read more

Very authentic and the most delicious Thai food in Troy. The family that owns this business is so nice and friendly! The restaurant is always clean too. I love to support their business especially during Covid times. They have the absolute best pad Thai!! I've tried pad Thai at many other restaurants in the metro Detroit and have found nothing that compares to this! I highly recommend trying it if you haven't. I always get "no spice" when they ask for the level of spice when ordering but ask to have the spice on the side so I can control the spiciness of the dish. The vegetables are always fresh and the noodles are never over cooked or undercooked...always perfect. Their TomYum soup, spring rolls and shrimp chips are delicious as well for appetizers. I can't wait till this place opens again for in dining. Before Covid it was always busy during lunchtime but you're in an out within an hour. They currently are closed for lunch hours and are only open for carry out. 3 PM to 8 PM Monday through Thursday 3 PM to 9 PM Friday 5 PM to 9 PM Saturday closed on Sundays. I highly recommend this place for your next Thai craving. You will never want to go to another Thai place again after eating here! read more

Orchid Cafe - V5. Pad Thai Vegetables - Thai Near Me - Troy, Michigan

My boyfriend and I got takeout from here today, because there is a BOGO lunch/dinner coupon in the Entertainment book app. I have been to Orchid Cafe before in Troy, but the Rochester Rd. location, which apparently no longer has any affiliation with this location. This one is located at the corner of Square Lake Rd and Livernois. Starting with the bad and moving on to the good ... the Thai iced tea was inedible. My boyfriend and I usually get that from Sy Thai, and I've also had it from Bangkok Cuisine (Royal Oak) and other places. This tasted very different. When we got back to my house, we opened up the lids and there was something floating around in it ... I'm guessing they use a mix. The fact that my (non-picky) boyfriend and I BOTH disliked it was pretty bad ... $6 literally down the drain. For the entrees: I got the cashew beef and he got the Siam Duck. Both were decent, although I like Sy Thai's better. The best part of the meal was actually the "Summer Rolls" (appetizer A9). I've had these before although they've been called something else, and usually it comes with either a thin peanut sauce or a sweet chili sauce; Orchid Thai's comes with a THICK peanut sauce, and it was delicious. Overall I'd give this place 3/5 stars, but wouldn't rush to return, based on this experience. If you live in the area, it's worth trying out, I just would definitely skip the Thai iced tea. read more

This family is crushing it here. My friend told me the story behind the restaurant/ new owners and I'm impressed. So friendly here. This place was busy for lunch. They give you complimentary shrimp chips and Thai hot & sour soup. Delicious. The chicken in both plates....so tender. Next time I would get mild+, no spice but sooo good. I will be back to check out the Pad Thai & shrimp dishes. read more

This place has always been my favorite Thai place for years because they never skimped on portion and they would make dairy-free curry sauce for me. Now, the new owners have made it even better by using gluten-free soy sauce so I can eat the brown sauce entrees too. Did I mention the delicious homemade coconut ice cream? read more

Orchid Cafe - Chick F1. Fried Rice Thai Style Dinner - Thai Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Their hot and sour soup is different from almost any other hot and sour soup I've come across before. It's lighter in color and less vinegary and is spiced perfectly (not just heat-wise but the flavor is slightly different from others). It tastes so good. It's my favorite and has been since I used to go to their other location on Rochester road (which I think isn't there any more) many years ago. I drive out of my way just for the hot and sour soup. It's so good to me that I've never tried their Tom yum soup so I can't review that. Their other dishes are very flavorful and delicious. Their prices are reasonable as well. There is only one other Thai restaurant in metro Detroit that has food which I would rate higher but only by just a tiny tiny bit. Orchid Cafe still gets 5 stars from me. Orchid Cafe is one of the best Thai restaurants in metro Detroit and I've never had a bad experience here. read more

They really go out of their way to accommodate gluten free. The food is very good and they are generous with their portions. I am so happy they got new style containers; no more styrofoam! read more

I just went to this restaurant after more than a year they have a new owner. The food is good and it is clean. The waitress which is I believe the owner when she took the plates when we were done made a comment that since I did not finish all my white rice next time we should ask for less . I really did not like that comment at all whether we finish all the rice or not she should not had made that comment we also asked for extra napkins which she ignored and some chilly sauce that we asked for had scraps at the bottom on the bowl. That is why I gave them three stars . Please improve your table side manners. read more

Food was okay except the scallops in the seafood curry were borderline rotten. It hurt to not eat them because I love scallops and it was a birthday treat. But service was good and the complimentary coconut ice cream was appreciated. read more

My sisters and I had to come back here. It's been so many years. We came regularly with our parents when we were kids. Same space, same family who runs it. It's always a good handful of people in here, never super busy. A lot of people like to get carry out here. We dined in a little close to 7:30 on a Friday evening. They immediately seated us and brought waters. They brought out the fried shrimp chips and the bamboo soup which I think helps to cleanse your system. I felt a bit full from the soup even though it was small. Perhaps it was just one huge ladle full. We ordered pad Thai, param rongsong (a mixture of broccoli, carrots, baby corn, and a nice peanut sauce), and the royal chicken (crispy chicken mixed with a sauce with carrots and peppers). Good as always! We shared our dishes but barely made a dent! Perhaps we should've ordered two dishes between all 3 of us. I love all the orchids they set around the room and all the Thai decorations. So pretty! They've got a nice chandelier in the middle of the space which is right above a small aquarium. It was cute! They placed some pretty calming music. Hillsong, Lauren Daigle, Aaron Shust. Yay! Service was good. Food came fast and they were attentive to when we finished dishes and when we needed more water, even though she set the pitcher on our table. She poured more for us anyway! They were very nice! Made good eye contact. Even bid us goodbye at the door! Can't wait to relive my childhood again next time! read more

I've been continuing my exploration of Troy restaurants with my coworkers and this one did not disappoint! This place has the best lard na (wide rice noodles with broccoli, choice of meat, and brown gravy) I've had in Michigan so far. The noodles are fresh, and the wok sear left the noodles fragrant, as opposed to a lot of other places that just use dry noodles. It really makes all the difference in the world. This place was generous with the broccoli and beef, unlike Sy Thai, where their toppings are sparse. The beef was fresh and they didn't use that tenderizer powder that makes meat unnaturally soft. The gravy was a little thin/soupy, but the flavor was spot on. It was enough to flavor the noodles, broccoli, and beef without being too salty. I tried some of my friend's chicken pad Thai which was also excellent. The noodles had a rich, sweet flavor and the chicken breast had a nice crust on the outside from the wok while retaining its moisture inside. We also got shrimp chips with our meal in the beginning. The chips were crispy, not too greasy, and fried in fresh oil. I know they're just chips, but these were probably the best shrimp chips I've had. The soup that came with our meals was also good, even though it was a little spicy for my taste. Service was decent - the waitress came to refill our waters and they were pretty prompt with everything. The atmosphere is bright, open, and clean. I have a few other Troy Thai restaurants bookmarked on Yelp that I still need to try. This place set the bar really high - I'd be surprised if any of the others came close. read more

I would explain this place as the ultimate Thai comfort food. My family and friends have been eating here for years. Originally we found it when it was on Rochester Rd. After covid, that location took over this location and brought many of that staff. The food is top notch. Garlic chicken & rice is brothy and exactly what you need on a cold day. Orange chicken is so much better than anywhere else I've been. My granddaughter who is incredibly picky enjoys their chicken fingers or chicken fried rice. So there is stuff for even your picky eaters who won't try anyone. The people that run the place are so nice. And it is clean. I cannot recommend this place enough. It's one of my favorites. read more

It's been over 16 years since I've been able to eat here. We use to come here and their other location 2-3 times a week for lunch when I worked in Troy. Now, living in New Mexico - I can only dream about the great Thai restaurants that Detroit has...this being one of my old personal favorites. We have (1) great Thai place in Albuquerque and thank god. That said, I ordered two of my old favorites here last night and yes, I ate 2/3rds of each one. I'm still stuffed 15 hours later. And, it was as good as I remember too. You just done find dark Pad Se Ewe like this anywhere in the southwest - from Texas to Orange County - trust me. It's just not that good...unless...unless you know it's made From Laotian or Hmong - the. You'll know it's GREAT Thai!! Orchid Cafe is a Laotian family and trust me they don't shy away from spice or heat or most importantly - flavor. Enjoy Troy!! Lucky bastards!!! read more

My family and I had such a delightful dinner at Orchid Cafe last Friday evening. Their in-dining service was impeccable and their dishes so delectable. I would highly recommend the Hot & Sour Soup (best around Metro Detroit hands down), Crab Rangoons (half eaten in the photo - 6 total) and the Royal Chicken (the yummiest sweet sauce) and would even drive a half hour to get them from here. It's a very cute & clean spot. Looking forward to visiting again soon! Also pictured: - Prik with beef - Brocolli Delight with beef - Iced Thai Coffee read more

Dine in or take out is good. Service tends to run slow but staff is very friendly. I have ordered several items and liked them all.

The food and service were amazing. The hot and sour soup is the best I have ever had. Would also highly recommend the spring rolls and Pad Ped. read more

Always have great food and good service. Had the Pad Thai and crab rangoon last night and enjoyed them both.

Ordered the Pad Thai, it was very good. I would order it again. During the ongoing pandemic they did curb side pick up very efficiently. Thank you for continuing to serve during this time. read more

For a family run Thai restaurant in a suburban strip mall, this place is fantastic on every level. This is not a gourmet Thai like Takoi, but relative to suburban strip mall Thai places, it is one of the best. Ambiance/decor: Nice. Fresh. Clean. Not your typical cliche Thai decorated restaurant. They spent some money on buildout and decor. Not your typical white walls and sticky tables type of place. Service: attentive and good. Not your ambivalent servers that just drop your food and go. Food: really really good. Large portions, quality ingredients. Chicken looks like chicken instead of mystery meat. Snap peas plentiful and fresh. Cashews crunchy. All vegetables fresh and properly cooked. Lunch comes with Tom Yum soup and shrimp chips. The soup is delicious. Lots of chicken and other ingredients. Not your typical cup-o-starch served in most other places. Shrimp chips light, crispy, and not greasy. Appear to be deep fried to order. Simply refreshing and delicious. Owners obviously take pride and understand American standards for cleanliness, decor, service, and food. Well done. read more
