Teriyaki chicken drumsticks and wings 5/5
Natasha K.

We had a family reunion gathering and wanted to get some yummy Thai that could feed lots of bellies. Thai Cafe was perfect! Not only was the food delicious, they offered $10 off for online order before 4pm. Our favs were the Pad See Ew with crispy chicken, Teriyaki chicken wings, onion pancakes, duck, broccoli and beef, and that amazing fried rice. Not greasy, no food coma, really light, yet flavorful. Definitely recommend this restaurant and would come back again!

Love the hot and sour soup here!
Jacquelyn M.

I am very picky about this soup as most local places don't know quite how to make it. Theirs is delicious and light as an app. Customer service is great, the lady on the phone was so sweet and our delivery driver was so apologetic about being "late" although he wasn't. We will order again!

Thai Fried Rice Dinner Scallion Pancake Drunken Noodle Dinner
Midlene C.

Drunken Noodles $11.25 Thai Shrimp Fried Rice $11.25 Gyoza $4.95 I love this cute little Thai place! My go to order is the Thai shrimp fried rice (squeeze lime) and a side of gyoza. The drunken noodles are really good too but so so spicy!! So be aware! The calamari & scallion pancakes are alright. Cant wait to try other items on their menu!

First time having their ladnah and it was delicious. It's stir fried wide noodles with a thick gravy. Other name for is is Cantonese noodles or meegathung. It's the best in Lynn. The ladnah isn't on their menu but if asked, they will make it for you. The drunken noodles are the best! Ask for spicy level number 3.

Papaya Salad
Marni M.

First time ordering from here since they changed owners recently. I had the tom yum noodle soup and the papaya salad, both medium spicy. The tom yum was decent, nothing crazy but nothing to complain about. They were very generous with the bean sprouts since I asked for extra and spice level was barely noticeable. Papaya salad was good, first time trying so I don't have anything to compare it to. The spice level however, was more prominent than in the soup. I checked-in for the 10% discount but the owners didn't honor it since they were not notified that yelp offered it. I may need to try more items from their menu to get a better overall opinion.

Too salty. It did not sit well. Decided to actually cook something else which defeats the purpose of takeout food.

Nightshade Noodle Bar - Tiger blood

Nightshade Noodle Bar

4.2(233 reviews)

If you find yourself in the Lynn area, call Nightshade and see if you can nab a seat for yourself…read moresolo or a party of 2. I read online that you need advanced reservations to dine, but decided to call and see if they had an opening since I was in nearby Salem. They did, and I had tremendous experience starting around 7pm on a late-August Friday evening. Caveat: October tends to be the busiest month, so advanced reservations are advised. The mantra to enter into the multicourse journey is "Trust the Process" and "Take Your Time." The chef and her team will curate a unique medley of dishes. After familiarizing myself to the "menu map," I knew there were some ingredients (duck tongue and caviar, for example) that I normally wouldn't order ad hoc, so jumped in with a deep breath. This was one of those instances where the risk taken paid off in spades! I opted for the seven-course experience. The staff are knowledgable, food-passionate, attentive, and expert at creating an atmosphere of ease and genuine hospitality. They were quick to refill my water, make sure I had everything I needed, and inquire about my take on the dishes. The pacing overall was solid, and I was intentional about tasting and allowing the mouth feel of each dish to register: this helped my brain clock that the tasting menu left me satiated, despite the 1-to-2 bite portion sizes of a few of the courses. As you can see from my photos (not in chronological order), each dish is a work of art for the eye and the palate. My favorites were the uni brulee and the "dragon's blood" aloe vera gel: the latter was technically a chef's gift (palate cleanser) vs an actual course, but I loved the play on a vibrant childhood icee flavor and the "pop" of the tangy/tart/sweet lime sugar. Actual order: choupique caviar service (chips), grilled coconut sticky rice pop w/pork floss, habotcha squash bot chien, uni brulee, collard greens, garlic noodles with crab cake, "dragon's blood" aloe vera gel, and lemon custard "trifle" (deconstructed lemon merengue pie). Note: if you are sensitive to spicy, certain dishes may not suit you. They include the habotcha squash bot chien and uni brulee, which both have a decent kick. Everything was memorable in delivery, gorgeous presentation, and symphony of flavors. I've been fortunate to enjoy a Michelin-rated prix fixe in Paris, and Nightshade was on par with that meal. I'm already looking forward to my next visit, and will highly recommend to friends for a special meal. Trust me, it's worth it! Bonus: Nightshade is a stone's throw from the Lynn MBTA Station.

We got the 7-course menu…read more Choupique Caviar (7/10): the caviar was good. I do think the eggspuma dip kind of overwhelms the subtle flavor of the caviar, though. I think I'd rather this be a supplement to the tasting menu and have the base option be cheaper. Coconut Sticky Rice Pop (7/10): Decent dish. I liked the sticky rice pop (love coconut milk), but it was little hard to eat. The ratio of sticky rice to meat floss could be a smidge higher. Kabocha Squash bot Chien (7/10): A bit too acidic (really needs a palate cleanser), but still good. Kind of difficult to get a perfect bite, with all the stuff on the plate. Maine Uni Brulee (8.5/10): Umami bomb! So, so delicious. Couldn't even tell it was uni. The sauce was incredible. Collard Greens (6/10): This dish was way too salty. I was also disappointed by the balance of the dish. Too much salt, too much of the garlic sauce. The flavors were good and had promise, but the balance was just all off. Homemade Egg Noodles (6/10): Same thing as above for this dish. The flavors were very promising, but it was just too salty and unbalanced. There also weren't enough noodles to absorb the sauce. Garlic Noodles (9/10): Favorite of the night. These are LOADS better than the homemade egg noodles. So well balanced. Loved the bursts of citrus in the candied lemon. Every bite came with such an amazing aftertaste of crab. Super unique and creative. Salted Chocolate Mousse (6/10): I liked the cognac taste, but this was too salty as well. Not really impressed with the dessert. Tiger Blood (7/10): Decent. not much to say about it. Nice palate cleanser. The service was excellent. The waitstaff really took our feedback seriously. Ambiance is nice, too. My honest review is that $85 is too much for what you get. I understand a lot of that goes towards caviar, but I don't care much for the caviar dish here. With Inkind offers, you can probably get the price down to something more reasonable. If that's the case, then Nightshade is worth a try.
