    Pinto Thai
    Jennifer J.

    My friend and I were craving Thai food, and so we looked around on Yelp for some of the top rated Thai in the area. Pinto Thai popped up and we decided to give it a try. Booking a reservation online was so easy, and it didn't end up being a busy evening, as it was a Tuesday night, so we could have easily walked in, as well. The parking was easy and upon driving up, I instantly remembered that this location used to be Roux, a great New Orleans inspired restaurant where I used to frequent for brunch. The same tiled ceiling is still in placed but the remaining features of the restaurant have all changed. The space is open and inviting, and the bar at the entrance has been updated. Our server was friendly and helpful, and the menu is lengthy with plenty of great options. I ordered the fried tofu for our starter, and it was perfectly cooked and the dipping sauce was delicious! The tofu was as so plentiful that I ended up taking half the starter home. They definitely give you plenty! For our entrees, I ordered Panang Curry with steamed tofu and my friend ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice. Both dishes came out hot and smelled lovely, and the taste was out of this world! I ordered medium and it was the perfect spice level, and the curry was so flavorful and delicious! It may even be the best Panang Curry I've had in Tampa!

    20 mins from Tampa airport. Food was average, ambiance is quite serene at 1 pm. Only 2 table occupied. Service was awful, he kept forgetting what he said he'll do. As there is no customer, I asked to see a chef and was told to wait but he/she didn't come out at all. After the follow up, eventually, told that "I'm sorry I can let you in the kitchen". Understanding, it's not a fine dinning and I didnt keen to go into the kitchen. Only want to say hi and thank you to Chef. For me, it wont worth traveling there unless it' on the way. This is only my experience, you may have different one. Good luck!

    My boyfriend and I came across this place and i immediately knew it was going to be amazing. Not only was the food incredible, (i got the Drunken noodles and my boyfriend got the beef noodle soup,) the staff was super tentative, kind, and the food came out perfect! I highly recommend this restaurant!!

    Massanman curry
    Heather G.

    The curries at Pinto always hits the spot! We tried the chicken satay this time which wasn't my favorite but I still will always come back for the Massanman curry. Our service was a little slow this visit but overall a good experience.

    N2. Pad See-Ew
    Chrissy D.

    This place is INCREDIBLE!! Portion sizes are huge and their pad see ew was excellent! We went on a Friday night and the place was fairly empty which was honestly shocking to me. This is definitely my new go-to for thai whether it be dining in or takeout, especially for the amount you get!

    I ordered a soup and a salad
    Alicia P.

    I have missed the boat on this one.... it's been here for a couple years now and I didn't even know it. I went in for take out one night and learned how long it had been open and my mouth almost dropped. Where have I been? Well, I finally made it in and ordered something to go. I got the Tum Kha chicken, it was definitely tasty, however, I'm sad that they did not use straw mushrooms. I believe traditionally those are the mushrooms that have always been in my Tum Kha at many other Thai restaurants all over and I feel like this is a cheaper route to go to save them some money (not the customer). Although the rest of the flavor and quality appeared there. I also had the Larb and although I really enjoyed it, the slice of cabbage through the head was useless as I couldn't put the larb ON the cabbage, you had to eat the cabbage by itself, basically - like a piece of bread on the side - but cabbage. Other than those 2 things, I still really liked the flavors and the young man behind the bar was also handling take out orders, he seemed to do it quite seamlessly and stress free. My order was ready in a short enough emoting of time, I took it home, it was hot, it was tasty and I enjoyed it! YUM!

    F3. Duck on the Bay C1. Panang Curry
    S C.

    Amazing food, huge portions, super quiet environment. Panaang curry was super awesome - duck was pretty good too. Medium spice is honestly the best. Honor our military service members, and have great wait staff.

    Singapore Noodle
    Lolita D.

    Singapore Noodles are like my all time favorite dish & Pinto Thai did not disappoint. I'm not a big fan of spicy food and usually Singapore noodles are always spicy but I LOVED that their noodles were full of flavor and I didn't even have to ask for a mild version. My partner had the Penang curry and I definitely had a few bites, while it was a big spicy it was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend and I would be back again. The space is peaceful and decorated nicely, the food came out super quick! I'd definitely return.

    N3. Drunken Noodle with beef

    First time having Thai food and I was so pleased. The drunken noodles are spectacular, I got mine with medium spice which wasn't too spicy. The texture of the noodles is to die for and the portion sizes are great. The food came out quickly and I was able to ask questions to the server about different food options and their recommendations.

    Pad Thai Duck
    Anna P.

    Finally got to try Thai food in Tampa, and I'm so glad I did! I got the pad thai with duck, while my partner got the panang duck. The portion sizes are super generous here, and they didn't skimp on the meat either. I absolutely loved the noodles, super creamy with the perfect amount of acidity from the fish sauce. The duck was also amazing, the meat was super tender while the skin was crispy and juicy. I also got to try a sip of the watermelon margarita, and wow! I highly recommend, especially if you like drinks on the sweeter, fruitier side. Staff was super polite, and the food came out quickly. We came on a Saturday at 6 PM expecting it to be busy, but it was actually pretty peaceful inside with not too many people. If you want a quiet date night, this might be the place for you. I'll definitely be back soon!

She seats you immediately to a an open floor spacing with two sides of seating and a centralized semi-circle bar area. There are roughly over 30 tables and plenty of room to accommodate small to larger. The cajun boil here is fabulous! Loved every minute of it. Will be visiting again ... maybe not during the hurricane seasons. :)

The highlight of our visit was our server, Jake. His recommendations were spot-on. He checked on us throughout the meal without ever being overbearing. Appetizers: Spicy Tuna Nachos (with the crab salad and avocado add-on. This was Jake's recommendation) This was hands-down our favorite appetizer. The crab salad and avocado are a must. Everything paired perfectly together, especially with a dash of soy sauce. Kickin' Shrimp with Bread. The shrimp was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The only small suggestion would be to serve the bread in smaller pieces, making it easier to share. Entrees: Loco Moco - 8.5/10: Great flavor and cooked well. The only thing that would have made it even better would be adding some vegetables on the side. Blackened Grouper Fish Tacos - 10/10: Absolutely amazing! The grouper was fresh and not overly fishy, and the mango salsa added the perfect touch of sweetness and saltiness. The flavors were balanced. I'd order these again. Paradise Signature Sushi Roll: Another great addition to our meal. Overall, Hula Bay delivered on every level. We had great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and amazing service from Jake. Highly recommend.

That request should have been clearly seen and followed. Instead, spicy mayo was put all over the sushi, and there wasn't even a container or lid to keep it on the side. The entire order was essentially contaminated with something I explicitly asked not to have. I absolutely hate spicy mayo, which is why I specifically requested none. And on top of that, lemons do not belong on sushi. The combination completely ruined the meal. The sushi was also expensive, making this experience even more disappointing. This was by far the worst sushi I have ever had. I will absolutely not be ordering from here again.
