    Entrance
    Juli S.

    Amazing food! I ordered the yellow curry fried rice with chicken and bell peppers because many of the reviews I read raves about it. They weren't wrong. My dad had the Pad See Wen and loved it, as well. I love all the foliage and natural light. It's quiet but not to the point of being uncomfortably so. The service was prompt, courteous, and accommodating! Highly recommend for great Thai cuisine.

    Yellow Curry
    Keith F.

    Small , hole-in-the-wall establishment near the University of North Texas campus was a great find for lunch. It doesn't look like much from the road but a Thai restaurant amongst dozens of bars, pizza and burger joints, barbecue and Mexican restaurants does seem like the odd duck. The atmosphere of the place was peaceful, and we could easily have a quiet conversation. The servers were attentive, and the wait wasn't long for the food and the food was delicious - the perfect amount of spicy. I'd gladly return to try other dishes.

    Green Curry with Chicken
    Sam H.

    Haven't been in the Dallas area for a few weeks, and was craving some Thai. Looked online, and found this spot. I was eager to try. You never know with parking options in Dallas, but thankfully this place had plenty of parking out front. I came in on a Friday night. There was no wait and we were immediately seated. The service was awesome. The inside was nice and clean. Everything about this place was a slam dunk EXCEPT the amount of meat in my dish. There was maybe 3-4oz of chicken in the curry (my plate). It worked out because I wasn't super hungry. If you are, get ready to order two plates! It was $27 for these two plates, which was pretty inexpensive IMO. Would love to try again.

    Chicken satay
    Newly P.

    Their strong points are the curries and stir fries. I've always enjoyed the yellow and red curries here. Today I tried the chicken satay but it was too tough and dry. The dumplings were ok. Service is friendly and quick and this is my fave place for lunch because it's only a 5 min walk from my office on campus. Ambiance is casual and low key.

    Pad See Eew with tofu and vegetables, complimentary side salad
    Rachel C.

    I ordered Oriental Garden through UberEats, so this review is speaking to the delivery experience not the sit down service. I got the tofu and vegetable pad see eew which was well seasoned and flavorful. It wasn't too salty nor was it too spicy. I also ordered vegetable spring rolls with peanut sauce which I would not order again. They were fresh but the rice paper was thick and difficult to bite through. The peanut sauce was very watery and diluted.

    10/10 customer service and food! This place was amazing!!! And all of the employees putting in work. Thank you for an amazing experience !!!

    Fried tofu
    Andy S.

    Great lunch spot by university. Stop by to try their take on Thai food. The food is very simple and good. This mom and pop shop is a great hidden gem in UNT area. Easy location to walk to from your class. Pad kee mow was on point. The noodle was al dente. I enjoyed the simple peanut sauce house salad. The tofu was fried well and paired well with light peanut sauce.

    Crispy Noodles Pad Thai Calamari Ring

    Service is absolutely amazing! All the staff are very nice and always check on you when you don't even ask. The food is a 1000/10 for my first time being here!! I got the calamari rings and the crispy fried pad Thai and it was delicious

    BBQ Pork Fried Rice
    Peikai M.

    One of my favourite places in denton. I go so often and just the service and food is just amazing. Environment is comfortable and service is fast. I always go for the BBQ Pork Fried Rice and its always great. I've tried a couple of their curries which is also good. I find the value of this place to be good but sometimes the fried rice portions can be a little inconsistent. Overall an amazing place and for sure worth visiting.!

    When we walked in, it was very quiet--just us and one other table. If you're looking for a calm,…read moretucked-away dinner, you'll probably love that. For me, it leaned a little too quiet, but it did make the whole experience feel slow-paced and intentional instead of rushed. The space itself is cute and thoughtfully put together, simple without trying too hard. Service matched that energy--easy and natural. We were helped by both staff members throughout the meal, and they were kind, efficient, and attentive without hovering. The vegetarian egg rolls were crispy and solid, but the real star was the house sweet & sour sauce. I'm still thinking about it. It's that good. The green bean app was another win--crispy, flavorful, and super snackable. I personally would've loved a little more sauce, but that's a small thing. The Volcano Catfish (2/5 spice) absolutely delivered. Huge portion, perfectly cooked, and everything on the plate worked together. The fried rice soaked up all the flavor and held its own. This is the dish that makes the price make sense. The Pad Thai with chicken (1/5 spice) was a sleeper hit. Once you add the lime and mix everything together, it really opens up--bright, balanced, and surprisingly good. Only note for me--the chicken wasn't my favorite. Not bad, just not my preference. I'd order it again with shrimp next time (my husband thought the chicken was good). Overall, nothing felt rushed, nothing was missed--just a really solid dinner. Would I come back? Yes. Would I come back specifically for that sauce? Immediately.

    Years and years later, I still love Andaman. The green curry still wins my heart, and the ambiance…read moreis still quaint and intimate and perfect for a light lunch or a nice date night. The service is always genuine and attentive, and if you ask, they'll definitely suggest plates for you depending on your style and spice level tolerance!

Of course that's based on my memory and I have ADD, so who knows. However, it gave me the impression that some of the staff might be the same. They have a good selection of appetizers to choose from. The money bags are great and deliciously crispy. The crab rangoon is especially tasty, better than the previous restaurant here and better than I've had at most nearby restaurants. I found the tulip dumplings to be a bit greasy and overcooked, but would be willing to try them again in case it was an off batch. The BBQ Pork Fried rice was pretty decent, but I liked it better from Khao San. The rice was fine, but the pork seemed slightly undercooked which changes the texture and made it less satisfying. The yellow curry with jasmine rice was quite good, I liked it a lot and would definitely order it again. Although I noticed the rice was not jasmine rice. However, under Sides on the menu I noticed several rice options listed, so this was probably just a mix up of orders during the dinner rush. It didn't negatively impact my meal, just an observation. Overall, I found the food to be quite good, just a few execution flaws that could be the result of being new, short staffed or especially busy. No big deal. I recall this restaurant being kind of small and cramped, so I prefer delivery for now. There's a good chance they did some magic with the renovation and I would like to try out their lunch specials if I'm in the area on a weekday before 3pm, so I may find out soon.

It wasn't very busy at the time, but our drinks still took about ten minutes to arrive. We started with potstickers, which were delicious, and our little one's avocado came out quickly, which we appreciated. However, after placing our order, we noticed several tables seated after us receiving their food before we did. At one point, we were concerned our order may have been overlooked. When the food finally arrived, it was very good--no complaints there--but the wait was a bit disappointing, especially since most of what we ordered were appetizers. Overall, we'd still come back, just hoping for a smoother experience next time.
