Seafood radna

This place has been a favorite since saibadee days. One of my favorite dish has to be radna and papaya salad. The papaya salad is probably the best ever, as in, anywhere I go, I would compare to here. And I keep a few of their papaya salad sauce in my fridge! I used to order their Thai boat noodle bowl but as of late the flavor just be hitting different. So I've switched back to just ordering radna. However, I've tried the yum nua and it was delicious! That will definitely become a regular on future visits. The service is good. They constantly checked on us and gave us updates on when the food is coming out. The atmosphere has been less loud. It doesn't seem to be as busy as a few years back. Perhaps due to other Asian restaurants opening near by. Either way, will always eat here when it comes to Thai/Lao food.

Ceres-We used to order from this place during Covid (2020). I've never been inside the restaurant until now! Super cute and very clean. I tried their beef jerky and it was outstanding!! Really different, but chewy, and tasty. I stuck with something I know and love...Chow Mein. Yes, I know, kind of boring but it's what I was craving. It did not disappoint. Savory, with a hint of kick along with plenty of veggies and chicken. While I am visiting, here in California, I need to get all of the good food that I can before I head back to Orlando. I definitely recommend this cute little spot.

Last week I ordered 1 order shrimp spring rolls 2 orders of egg rolls and both the egg roll orders were burned and not eatable so you burned me last week I figured it was a mistake and things happen. Today I order chow mein and shrimp spring roll no vegetables. You gave me plain vegetable spring rolls which I hate and not what I ordered, by the way I gave you guys a nice tip both visits and you burned me both times farewell Sticky Rice do love your food but not enough to continue to get burned!!!!!

I was craving something fresh and lighter over rice, stoped at Sticky Rive for the first time, and was impressed. I had garlic pad Thai with pork. The veggies were super fresh, the pork pieces were big and the sauce was lighter and tasty. The service was quick and polite, the restaurant was clean and simple. I thought it was delicious, a great value, and it was quick. Definitely will be getting lunch again from here.

Mango dessert, so delicious

Fresh and delicious, I loved they add a lot of bamboo and variety veggies. The yellow curry just perfect for a kick not too spicy

They moved to Mitchell next to Angry Chickz. They had good food so looking forward to see if the same owners own the new location.

Is the orange chicken an actual slice of chicken or is it nugget style?

If you love Thai food then you need to really get yourself out and try the food. The Nok, was so hospitable and working in the kitchen, actually all the ladies that were working in the kitchen were charming and helpful and guided us through the menu and the flavors were so believably wonderful I really missed having true ocean food and this is the destination. You can go to nice restaurants with candles and music and get bad food you come to this quiet little place and sit down and have one of the most incredible meals you've ever had. We are packing a lot of food to go because we live so far away and believe me it will all be eaten with the love of the food and the smiles of the Laotians that made it.

Walk right through the near windowless building and walk back to the right rear corner of the building. The delicious aroma should be your guide. I ordered the Pad eggplant with pork and my partner ordered the Pad Woon Sen. It's also nice that they allow you to pick the protein, Beef, Pork or Chicken. They also ask for your preferred spice level. I say choose carefully as my spice experienced partner confidentially ordered "Spicy". He ended up looking like he got caught in a downpour and was drenched in sweat! lol The woman who took our order was very friendly and helpful! She answered all of our questions about the food with confidence and personal knowledge! The prices are stuck in the early 2020's and the amount of food in the serving is generous! The building is old but the store and the restaurant are spotless! No clutter, all products neatly stacked and the shelves loaded with food items were neatly stacked and arranged. I'll definitely be stopping by again to try the Pad Eggplant with a different protein or maybe to try something new. They also serve drinks. The Thai Ice Tea was very good!

Since she has graduated, I won't be in town anytime soon, but I highly recommend them for some good Thai and Laotian bites if you're ever in Merced! They have a selection of delicious dishes and I have loved everything that I've tried. My go-to orders are the Papaya Salad and Khao Poon. The papaya salad is a must and the spice level was the perfect amount. The Khao Poon is a coconut curry based noodle soup that is so flavorful. I've also come to really enjoy the Nam Khao (Laotian crispy rice salad), each bite is crunchy and absolutely delish. Your Asian comfort food cravings will definitely be satisfied here. Wishing The Papaya Lady continued success!

Located off on the corner of 16th Street and G (same plaza as Little Caesars), the Papaya Lady is actually tucked away inside a carniceria. The aisles of the market nearly block the counter to this little kitchen. It's the neon sign of "The Papaya Lady" buzzing that guides you to the back. We came in the late afternoon on a Saturday and they were already out of the fried chicken and sticky rice (next time!). We ended up ordering: Papaya Salad (extra spicy) - The little peppers in this gave the dish a nice kick. Super refreshing on a hot day. Nam Khao (crispy rice lettuce wrap with pork skin) - I highly enjoyed this one with all the crunchy textures and flavors. Will 100% get again. Khao Poon (noodle soup) - This broth had a subtle peanut flavor which was delicious. Wished it had more toppings. Nam Vanh (tapioca drink) - My drink seemed to lack the other jellies that I saw in other pictures and only had the lil tapioca balls, sweetener and coconut milk. It felt like it was missing something for sure. The owner is so nice and friendly. I don't know if it's a psychological thing, but every time he acknowledged or spoke to me, he used my name. It just felt automatically more warm and welcoming lol The price per portion is also legit. You get so much for what you pay. Our order kept me and the SO fed for almost 3 days. So nice to have some good Asian food in the Central Valley. Will definitely be back!

Bell peppers, Basil and Coconut Milk rounded out the dish making it perfect for serving over rice. 73 - Pad Kraprao - 4 - Just a bit of heat to wake up the taste buds, we ordered this with Chicken and it an excellent choice. Again, a successful meal. We'll be back!

We love coming here. Everything from the food to the customer service has been excellent…read more We ordered so many delicious dishes, including the papaya salad, kaopoon, fried tilapia, kao piek, beef laap, and several other tasty items. I would say their level 3 spice for the laap can get pretty spicy -- it's a slow heat that creeps up on you as you continue eating. One thing I'd ask for next time is some lemon or lime, as I like my laap a bit more tangy. They make their sausages in-house, and while they were good, I think they could be a bit larger considering the price, along with a touch more salt for a more savory flavor. That's just my personal preference. Overall, the food we ordered left us very satisfied. Our waiter was very kind and recommended a few dishes for us to try. Unfortunately, some items were out of stock, but that was completely fine. The decor is beautiful, and I love the lighting! It has the feel of a fancy dining establishment, but you can skip the suit and tie. We had no issues finding parking and their bathrooms (2) have been generally clean when I visited. Overall, a great experience, and we look forward to coming back.

Ambiance: The inside is beautiful, absolutely amazing artwork on the walls and the fake plants in the middle add a very relaxed vibe. They also have 2, gender neutral restrooms. Great place, chill atmosphere and delicious food!
