Chicken Pad Thai
Lauren K.

It was fine. I would have expected a bit more of the mentioned veggies but it satisfied the Pad Thai craving! Ordered through DoorDash and had a seamless experience through that!

Chicken Pad Thai so delicious.

I'm recommend Padthai and Gra pow Gai and pho noodles soup very delicious , so the best thai food in GR and was completely impressed with the amazing food and great service and Be sure to not miss out on their amazing desserts! you can definitely ask the server here for real Thai street food style. Everyone in the kitchen is Thai, and they totally get it just let them know what you're craving and how you want it. They can customize it just like you'd find on the streets of Bangkok. Flavor-packed, spicy, authentic they know what they're doing. Highly recommend for anyone missing the real deal.

Chicken Pad Sew Ew with extra chicken for $1.50
Jim W.

I've ordered take out from here twice and it's been amazing both times. If you want to dine-in, there are plenty of tables, but the restaurant is very basic and plain as far as decor/atmosphere goes. Both times I arrived to pick up my order, I was greeted by very friendly staff and the orders were ready when I got there. As far as food goes, the first time we got drunken noodles and the sweet and sour stir fly. Both were great and had a lot of flavor. The second time we got chicken pad se ew,l and orange chicken. The orange chicken was SUPER good. It is a little more expensive than most Chinese or Thai places, but that's because the chicken is very lightly breaded, so it has tons of meat and very little filler. Well worth it for the price and much better than most places which just give you heavily breaded pieces with barely any chicken. Portion sizes were very good, but I would definitely recommend paying the extra $1.50 or so to add extra chicken to your noodle dishes because the first time I didn't and there was definitely a little lack of meat. As far as spice level, medium will have you tasting just a little bit of heat, but nothing significant. Hot will definitely have heat, but nothing unbearable for people who like spicy food...just the right amount. Definitely one of the best Thai places I've been to in Grand Rapids.

Mango Sweet Sticky Rice (Thai Dessert)

The food was so good! As a vegetarian there were plenty of options. I'll definitely be back. Takeout was ready very quickly.

Tofu Pad Thai

Sooooooo good!! We've been searching for the best pad thai in Michigan for a year now and this place is definitely it. Amazingly flavorful and very authentic!! I would say that if you're used to spice, order their hot or thai spicy level as the medium was a little light on the heat but they offer additional spices if you need to crank it up :) We also got the thai tea and thai green tea which were amazing and complimented the food so well. The service was great as well and very friendly. We'll be going out of our way to hit this spot again.

Green curry with tofu and pad prik king.  DELICIOUS!
P.Y. H.

Green curry with tofu and pad prik king. DELICIOUS! We are visiting and were not certain what we would find. This was a pleasant surprise. This is a truly Thai place run by Thais (we are Thai). Our server was very nice and attentive. She even asked us how spicy e we liked our dishes and had the cook put some chili in one corner. As it turns out the restaurant is under new ownership. I hope more of the locals give them a try and they can make it through these times. You won't be disappointed.

Pad Thai & Steamed Gyoza
C C.

Done with these folks. They're very nice but something's changed significantly. Absolutely Do NOT order the fresh rolls... they are ice berg lettuce with overcooked pad Thai noodles and plain chicken?? Their pad Thai is also overcooked so you can expect 1 inch broken pieces. We've ordered from them 5 times since our first review and it's been subsequently worse each time. Yesterday we threw it out after the first bites and made frozen pizza...

Crab Rangoon

Food is great. Only this place that have the right spice level you want. Now they will not refund for the spice level so before you order just warning that they used Thai Chili and it is really spicy. Suggest medium for the right heat

They messed up our order and when we got our food the chicken was dry and the rice was cold. The manager did nothing to make it better.

Very small restaurant, but the waitress was attentive, and the food was tasty. I really can't complain about any dish I tried.

Got to go order beef pho food was fresh. Everything was super delicious. Will return again.read more

We in urban areas are used to visiting food courts to enjoy diverse international foods cheap by…read morejowl, because land is expensive. The Kentwood equivalent is this fabulous food court unwrapped into a strip mall, which includes Thai Express. Tidy, well lighted, and beautifully decorated with memories of Thailand, entering is a great first step. The staff are pleasant, and the service was quick and competent. No complaints at all. Things get weird with the food. I wonder if this is a Midwest thing, but everything was sweet. Weirdly sweet The surprise complimentary egg roll comes with a sweet dipping sauce. Not terribly on you unusual. The Tom Kha soup was sweet enough to overshadow the primary ingredient, the coconut milk. This is one of my staples, and this was the first time mostly I got was sweet. It was the highlight of my meal, and I would order it again, but I would steel myself for sweetness. I ordered the Pad Thai because it is the yardstick by which Thai restaurants are measured. A seemingly simple dish with a complex flavor profile. Let's start with the traditional sauce, usually made with tamarind pulp, fish sauce, and palm sugar. Instead, this seemed to have some sort of glucose sauce. No bueno. There also seem to be far less ingredients in this execution, resulting in a plate of noodles, fresh shrimp, ground peanuts, and a couple lime wedges. No sprouts for crunch. Nor anything else to round out a very basic preparation. Despite the award, this did not seem like a very happy interpretation of some really wonderful Thai dishes. I left the restaurant sad, and that's unusual for me. Don't let this be you.
