    Pad Thai - Chicken, extra peanuts
    Kayte W.

    Wowzers! We first tried Rutherford Thai before the pandemic. Unfortunately it's taken us several years to go back and I'm so glad we did! We started with appetizers - the spring rolls were hot, fresh, and crispy and the sauce was delightful. The Curry Puffs - delicious, a sweet/savory combo that left us wanting more. The Yum Nua - had a spicy lime dressing, nice kick of heat and just an explosion of flavors on your taste buds. We got the chicken Pad Thai as the main and again, delightfully delicious. We went on a Saturday about 5, the place was busy and buzzing and the servers were working quickly, our food came out quick, hot and with a smile. You can tell the family takes pride in their presentation, flavors and overall service - we cant wait to go back and try more!

    Fried rice
    Evan B.

    nothing special like the raves I have read. a small cozy place with maybe ten tables. ambience is very simple...no big deal. Service was very good. The wonton soup came out very hot which was nice. The wontons were very small with not much flavor. I had the shrimp dish with rice. I wasn't aware it contained fruit(apple and pineapple) and cashew nuts. The shrimp was excellent. I don't like having to peel off the tails. it was on a bed of mushy fried rice. it was an ample portion. I had a side order of fried rice. Again, it was mushy and lacked flavor. Had to add a lot of soy sauce to make it palatable. The menu is very limited. I don't believe I would go back.

    Spring rolls and Pineapple fried rice! Yum!

    So happy we found this little gem. Excellent food and service. So friendly. Best spring rolls and pineapple fried rice anywhere. And the dipping sauce is amazing. We will be back. Pat and Cindy from Shelby

    Rutherford Thai is amazing. I cannot believe that I had waited so long to try it. This was my first time ever trying Thai food and everything on the plate was so incredibly delicious and intricately designed! You can tell that the chef takes pride in his work and the waiters and waitresses were all extremely pleasant. I will be returning.

    In town doing some errands when we saw this quaint and small Thai Restaurant. We've heard lots of good things about this place so the wife was ready to give it a try. We parked next the restaurant (literally less than 20 feet from it) and made our way in. The place is small but very well decorated. There's about 10 tables but spread apart enough where it can be an intimate dining experience. We sat at the high top tables and we took in the atmosphere. The menu had different options which is good because I had plenty of choices. The food came out after a bit but we didn't mind because it was fresh. The portions were reasonable. The food did taste well. We really liked the place and would come back to try new dishes. The girl in the front counter was pulling double duty and she did a wonderful job. We love this small town ambiance and couldn't be happier of our new hometown.

    Gone down hill since the pandemic I gave it a few chances since then and I wasn't satisfied with the food anymore.

    Do not rely on the posted hours. Their food is good but they open and close on a whim. Definitely can't count on them.

    Authentic Thai right in downtown. Good for lunch and dinner. I recommend calling ahead if you want to takeout.

    The best Drunken Noodles I've ever eaten! The Pad Thai is also amazing. Definitely my "go to" place for great Thai food.

    I've been to a lot of pho restaurants or restaurants that have pho. This was definitely different…read more You only have 3 choices of protein to have in the pho, beef, shrimp, and calamari, or all three. Of course I chose beef but it wasn't good part of the beef. The spice level option was also different. I'm used to having chilli oil on the table and I can put as much as I want. The levels, 1-5, doesn't really allow me to experiment with the spice. Secondly, I had to get my own water, and put up my dishes when I was done. THAT was different. Lastly, the pho brother was not what I was used to. It didn't have that authentic taste and beefy taste. It wasn't bad but it definitely tasted like it already had hoisin and siracha in it. And the white onions were definitely cut too thick and so much in my pho. On top of that, the broth was a little foggy. 1-10, the broth would be a 6 for me. I didn't order anything else because pho is my to go. Go try it out and see what you think! 2.5-3 overall everything.

    The food at Boon Choo Thai Express is phenomenal! Very authentic Thai flavors, super delicious, and…read moreimmensely tasty! I can't rave enough about the flavor and service at Boon Choo... the owner and all the staff is always welcoming and friendly and the food is so yummy... the Panang curry is so good, I could eat the curry as a soup by itself! The garlic ginger soup is so delicious as well. Their tempura spinach is an excellent appetizer. A bit far from us; but definitely worth the drive for us, so very yummy! The location is cozy, but it always feels very inviting. Sorry I don't have pictures... the food is so good I always gobble it up before I take a picture :-)
