Warm welcome in the holiday spirit!
Patti C.

Wanted a quick casual early dinner tonight and this has been on my list. Cute little (5 tables) bistro with a chill vibe. The staff are sweet and very attentive. We ordered lumpia appetizer and she also brought us some fried dumplings, on the house, for ordering over $35 from the menu. They were both fresh and super crunchy and delicious. We ordered 2 beers, ice cold and yummy. Both the drunken noodles with crispy duck and the red curry with chicken were delightful. Warning: I ordered a spice 2 and it was more medium so just be aware. Everything was very flavorful and fresh. Will definitely be back!

This restaurant seems like a hole in the wall but the food was hot and fresh. Parking is free and shared in the plaza parking lot but easily accessible . I think the soup was the star for me. The green curry met my standard but didn't stand out from local competitors The restaurant itself is small with a few tables so I recommend calling ahead or getting it as take out.

Thai Peanut Sauce (Pra Ram) - Delicious!!!  And I love how they made the to go order super cute!  I thought that was a nice touch :)

Absolutely love this place. I've only ordered takeout so far, but it is so incredibly delicious. I get Pra Ram at every Thai place I go to as it's my favorite dish, and this is my favorite version on this side of Jax. I also got the lumpia, which was delicious as well. I crave Pinto Thai a lot, especially for the Pra Ram, and highly recommend!!

Pad Thai was very disappointing  No egg, no chives, and a small amount of protein even though I ordered double protein.

Has gone down hill. Very disappointing. Was so good when it first opened. It supplanted Buddha Belly and other places, but not any more.

Khao Soi

Came here for lunch. The place is small with very few tables but we were seated right away. I love noodles so I ordered Khao Soi with chicken as protein. The curry flavor is on point, so delicious! I didn't particularly like the fried egg noodles, I would just prefer them like normal, boiled and soak under those yummy curry soup! My husband ordered the Crispy Duck, it was indeed crispy and tasty. However, I feel like the portion is small for the price. Overall, we enjoyed our lunch!

Awesome, awesome, awesome for 3 of 4 days ordering here, If you're in Jacksonville and craving authentic Thai cuisine, look no further than Pinto Thai Bistro! Every dish we tried was a masterclass in balance and flavor, but the Tom Kha with shrimp stole the show--adding noodles took it to another level. The broth was rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced, hitting that ideal Thai hot level--bold but not overpowering. The chicken satay was cooked to perfection, the spring rolls were crisp and delicious, and while the beef drunken noodles weren't our favorite (we prefer a double-wide noodle), the flavor was still fantastic. We were torn between the Panang curry and red curry, both incredibly flavorful and satisfying. But what truly made the experience special was ING, the heart and soul of the bistro. She welcomed us with a warm smile each day, making us feel like family. Exceptional food, amazing service--Pinto Thai Bistro is an absolute must visit!

Amazing. Everything I've had is always so good and their service is nice and fast!! Don't skip this bistro is you want Thai!

Pad Thai chicken

Not many choices for Asian cuisine near by. Here on quick vacay. Decent place if you are wanting noodles. I had better and I've had worse. Small place and nice service. The soup noodle dishes looked delish from the photos but craving noodles.

Khao Soi
January V.

Been looking for a place here in Jacksonville that serves Khao Soi. Found. This place and it didn't disappoint us. Everything we ordered was delicious. Khao Soi is flavorful. Pad Thai with fried chicken was tasty giving a twist to the normal chicken pad Thai we typically get. The pinto fried rice and Pra ram were amazing. The place is a little small about 4 tables only but service was good. We will definitely be back to try it other dishes and get our Khao Soi again.

I didn't get the full experience, since I got it To-Go. I actually came from brunch next door. I was about to head to work and noticed this spot and thought, I should grab something for lunch! Hehe I don't know why I never saw this place before. It's cute and tiny inside, but there are a few tables. I ordered my faves, shrimp padseew and roti bread with the dipping sauce. I wish I had asked for spice, because the noodles seemed lacking of flavor. Didn't even think about it, as this was a spontaneous drop in on the way to work. Haha. Next time! And I'm sure eating there is better anyway. Roti bread and sauce - that's always good. They did ask me what kind of sauce I wanted. That kind of threw me off. I never knew there were other options! Haha I said whatever it regularly comes with. (Tip: it's the yellow sauce). Thanks, Pinto!

Noodles !

Buddha Thai Bistro -- 16 Years of Flavor, Family & Thai Hospitality!…read more We had such a fun evening celebrating Buddha Thai Bistro's 16th anniversary, and you could feel the excitement as soon as we walked in. The celebration was festive, the drinks were flowing, and there was a great selection of appetizers to enjoy. As a foodie, I really appreciate a restaurant that knows how to bring bold Thai flavors to the table while still keeping the food approachable. Buddha Thai does a nice job putting its own creative spin on traditional favorites. Their menu includes everything from the award-winning Pad Thai and Drunk Man Noodles to Khao Soi and Thai street food specialties. The presentation is also part of the experience. There's something about a beautifully prepared Thai dish with layers of aromatic herbs, spices, sauces, and textures that gets your taste buds going before you even take that first bite. I also like that the menu has plenty of choices for different dietary preferences, including vegetarian and vegan dishes such as Green Curry and Hawaiian Fried Rice. It's nice when plant-based options are treated as flavorful dishes of their own rather than an afterthought. The atmosphere adds to the experience too. The exposed brick, hanging silks, cozy setting, and relaxed vibe give the restaurant plenty of personality. Add in the warm, family-owned hospitality, and it's easy to understand why this Jacksonville Beach spot has been around for 16 years. Congratulations to the entire Buddha Thai Bistro family on 16 years! It was a wonderful celebration, and a great reminder of how much we appreciate locally owned restaurants that bring good food, personality, and community together.

Two appetizers, a cocktail, glasses of wine, and two entrees later it was time to go home. Service was phenomenal. Very chill, not busy establishment for a Wednesday. They do a lot of door dash, but only half the restaurant was full for inside dining. Everything is good here! You can't go wrong. Panko shrimp, satay chicken, pad see ew, lycheetini, curry! Can't go wrong. Good place to chat and chew. No rush at all.

Love this place!…read more They have a new special- unlimitedNaan while you dine in. My husband and I thought it was delicious!

I've been to Blue Orchid a few times before, and while the service has sometimes been inconsistent,…read morethis was by far the worst experience I've had there. The food itself was good, which made the service issues even more disappointing. We ordered an appetizer before our entrées, but we were served entrée with no notice that the appetizer would be late or missing. When our dinners arrived, we asked about it (we were not told, we had to ask) and were told the sauce was still being made for the appetizer. Later, the roti was brought out by itself with no curry, with no context. Victoria, our server, just dropped it off. After trying to find our server for several minutes (because she did not check on us to ask how the meal was), I asked about the sauce and was then told that another employee was supposed to have informed us that they were out of it. She said this in a scolding tone that made me feel bad for even asking. Eventually, the curry did arrive, but by that point we had nearly finished our meals and we had spent so much time annoyed about where our food was, we were not happy to eat it. There were other strange service moments as well. Our table was initially missing silverware, and at one point I began refilling my own small water glass from the bottle left on the table. Victoria abruptly took the bottle out of my hand and told me, "No, I'm supposed to do that for you." That interaction felt unnecessarily brusque, especially after we had already spent much of the meal trying to get basic information about food we had ordered. The price point made all of this harder to excuse. My $17 bowl of tom yum was essentially tofu and vegetables in spicy broth. I understand that restaurant prices include far more than the raw ingredients, but that is exactly the point: when I'm paying that much for a simple entrée, I am also paying for service, atmosphere, and a pleasant dine-in experience. I do not expect to spend the evening confused about where our food is or feel scolded for asking about it. They did ultimately discount the appetizer by half, which I appreciated, but the overall experience was still extremely disappointing. This was our first time coming on a Saturday night, and we specifically chose Blue Orchid because we wanted to spend a little more for a nice atmosphere and a relaxing evening. Instead, the service made the meal so confusing and stressful that by the end my husband and I were basically angrily eating the panang curry. At this point, we won't be returning to dine in. If this were a fast-casual or primarily takeout restaurant or if it were even a slow weekday, I would calibrate my expectations differently. But at these prices, service and hospitality are part of the product, and on this visit they simply were not there. I've had better experiences here in the past, which is part of why this one was so disappointing. On what should have been one of the restaurant's strongest nights, Saturday evening, they did not simply drop the ball -- they forgot about it and scolded us for reminding them.

Amazing meal! Probably the best Thai meal I've head in a long time. I tried the spicy chef's…read morespecial noodle dish with chicken, at a level of 3/5 spice, and I definitely should've done 4/5. It was very tasty though, and there was a hefty amount of food that came with the dish. I couldn't finish it and ate it another day. Service was great. Ambiance was not too bad, seemed homely. I can't wait to come back and try so many more things on the menu!

We were in Mayport recently so we finally tried Simply Tasty Thai, which is a place we've heard a…read morelot of good things about. They're located at 2292 Mayport Road. We ordered a couple of appetizers to start. I had the Satay and she had the steamed Gyoza. My Satay was very good and I liked that there were big pieces of peanut in the dipping sauce. She liked her Gyoza a lot and really liked that it wasn't slippery like it can be when it's steamed. I had Beef Pad Thai for my entree and I went with spice level 1. I liked that their version isn't overly sweet like it can be elsewhere. I don't really mind when it's sweet but I also like knowing that there's somewhere I can go when I don't want that. I was also pleasantly surprised by the fact that spice level 1 was very easy for me to get through. My wife ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice. 90% of why she ordered it was because it's served in a pineapple! She went with spice level 1 as well and said she could easily go to 2 or maybe even 3 in the future. The rice itself was good and she loved the chunks of pineapple all through it. We both had plenty to take with us which will make for a great lunch tomorrow. I'm glad we finally tried this place we've heard so many good things about. We will be back!
