So, so bad. Empty restaurant during dinner hour - Red Flag 1 Only one waitress working the floor, register and bar - Red Flag 2 Truly by then we should have just left, but my friend was absolutely starving and her boyfriend was already on the way. The food I ordered had no flavor; literally bland. I awkwardly mentioned to the waitress that the dish wasn't spicy and she asked me if I was making a joke. There was also a constant hand bell ringing from the kitchen. Turns out that is the method the chef uses to get the waitress' attention. NEVER AGAIN read more

Ordered a soup course and noodle dishes. We felt that the soup was over salted, very reminiscent of ramen packets, and the items in the soup were under flavored. I ordered the pad see eww and it could have stood to have more sauce, somewhat bland. The drunken noodle was good: vegetables were well done, the dish was light on chicken. read more

Awesome found host/owners are very attentive. Definitely recommend. Very friendly with nice atmosphere. Fresh generous portions with fast service with reasonable prices. read more

As a chef, I find myself being critical of asian cuisine. But I found this to be the best thai food I have ever eaten. The crab rangoons were made with a healthy amount of crab, unlike many thai restuaunts. The rice was moist and full of flavor. And lastly the general tso chicken was fantastic. It was properly breaded and fried, the chicken was tender, and it had just the right amount of sauce. If I am ever in Roanoke again this will be my go to place. read more

We ordered the dumplings and spring rolls for appetizers; they were so good we ended up ordering another round before the food even arrived. Delicious entrees, great prices and the owner was serving us with beautiful hospitality. A very well hidden gem in the middle of Roanoke! read more

Ate here this evening, terrible service. It seemed like the waitress went out of her way to make us feel unwelcome. We walked in around 8:25 or so (the place is listed as closing at 9:30pm) and she told us the kitchen was about to close, which is fine, but then she asked us if we knew what we wanted before we had even seen menus. There were still three tables seated so it wasn't like the place was dead. We were never asked whether we wanted anything but water to drink. As I was ordering my food she walked off toward the kitchen, and then returned and repeated back the name of a dish that I did not order. She didn't ask how spicy we wanted the food so when I added that I wanted my pad thai medium hot about a minute after she took the order, she proceeded to have a shouting match with the kitchen about how she was sorry she "just found out." We actually arrived home before the place was scheduled to close, so at least I can say the service is quick. I will probably return in about a year after I forget how bad this experience was and get desperate for some thai that I can walk to (ate here last year and my boyfriend had forgotten about the spoiled diarrhea-inducing curry from that visit, at least until they set his plate down tonight). read more

Big Fan! We have been here three times now and have had a great experience each time. The food is tasty and fresh and they are kid friendly. The owner has come out to say hello to us at each visit and is happy to see people at the new location. They have some lovely tofu options here. Best Thai I have had in this area. read more

The place was empty. That should have been a sign. Waited for my food after everyone else at my table was served. Six other people got there food before mine was finally brought to me. All I tasted was garlic. The duck was way over cooked. I would not recommend this place to anyone. You would be better off going to china buffet at a mall read more

Definitely the best Thai I've had in Roanoke. The owner was just adorable, very attentive and entertaining. My husband and I split the dumplings and papaya salad to start and then shared the chicken panang. I think the panang could have been richer but I may be spoiled by my favorite Thai place back home. The papaya salad was perfect. We will definitely be returning to try some other dishes. Four thumbs up. read more

The ceiling looks like there is some severe water damage. The table tops are cracked and worn. The restaurant was dimly lit. Probably to cover up the deterioration. Lunch came with a complimentary salad. It had fresh lettuce, vegetables, and a delightful red ginger dressing. I ordered the Ginger Chicken. The vegetables were very fresh and the sauce was tasty but the chicken itself was tough, overcooked and tasted old or freezer burnt. I was very unimpressed. It took over 35 minutes to recieve my food. There was one waitress and the restaurant was only a quarter full. I asked the waitress for additional spice sauces to add to my meal. The top of the sauces was corroded with mold. It was unacceptable and downright disgusting. read more

I've been here twice. Once on a date, another time with a friend. Great place. Food is good, service is excellent.

I was pleasently surprised to find out that Tong's Thai has reopened as Thai Continental. My Panang curry was just as delicious and creamy as I remember. I would like to see more traditional curry on the lunch menu. This is definitely the best Thai in the Roanoke area! read more

Trash. Ordered from hotel and was dissatisfied. Watered down coke and awful General Tso's. Would not recommend.

We use to live in Roanoke but now live in WA state. This place is by far the best Thai food we've had. When we come back for a visit...this will be the first restaurant we visit again. They have the best Green Curry and Drunken Noodles. read more

The pad thai is amazing. Friendly service. Great atmosphere. Clean. Good service. Lunch is pretty fast. We've had groups of 6 for dinner with great service. This is our favorite Thai place in the valley. read more

I had the worst service ever here. First of all, We asked extra paper towels since we went there with 5 small kids but what we were told was "I already gave 8". Second, we asked extra balls and spoons for kids and they gave us dirty look. What even worse was one of the ball wasn't even washed. At last, my purse fell off from the chair and it was on the floor, and one of the waitress came by and said "it needs to be picked up" and looked at my purse as if it's a trash. If I were waitress, I would pick it up for customers. I would never ever go back there again. Food wasn't that good either. read more

Thai Continental offers excellent thai food worthy of any major city on the East Coast. The larb chicken and duck kapow were the highlights of our meal, and the chicken satay, pad thai and green curry chicken were also terrific. Next time we will advise the server of our desired spice level--our food tonight could have been spicier. But we will definitely go back. read more

My wife and I were in the mood for something spicy, and we both love Thai food so we tried Thai Continental. Having no experience or knowledge of the restaurant we ordered some Tom Yum Goong, which I think is a pretty standard dish/soup and good indicator to judge how much effort the kitchen puts into their food. Perhaps it was an off night for the Chef, but overall we were not satisfied with our meal. The soup had kind of a blandness to it, missing fish sauce perhaps and definitely kefir leaves, straw mushrooms, and that spicey goodness that we longed for. Also the servings were smaller than what we were used too in other Thai restaurants. Overall, we were unsatisfied, but willing to try again on another day to see if was just a bad night. The service was friendly, and professional. read more

Great Thai. Compares legitimately with big-city offerings. Good ingredients with lots of flavor, big portions, very reasonable prices, and an attentive staff. I've been satisfied with the papaya salad, drunken noodle, and Pad Thai so far. read more

Best Thai in the area. I live in Blacksburg and will drive to Roanoke just to eat here. The service is always REALLY good.

Excellent green curry with chicken and my friend liked her massaman curry with tofu. Service was excellent as well.

Standard Thai fare next to the Market Building in Downtown Roanoke. Very flavorful dishes. I like their Kapow chicken and Pad Thai. Haven't tried much else. Service is friendly. read more

Not the best pad Thai I've ever had, but definitely not the worst. I asked for spicy and it wasn't as spicy as I would have liked but I wasn't asked to specify a level so next time I'll have to ask for more spicy. Really great location for the downtown area and close to where I live so I'm looking forward to trying it out more! read more

I tried drunken noodles, a little overly seasoning and oily. And the noodle is hard and dry, not very good~service is good though~

If yelp offered no stars, that's what I would choose. Unbelievably, this restaurant was recommended to me. The food was horrible. 20 minutes after I left the restaurant I got violently sick to my stomach. I love Thai food and have been eating it for 30 years and this food was horrible times infinity. The crab rangoon was not crab rangoon, it was more like crap rangoon. It was the size of an apple turnover and I have never seen such thick wontons, they tasted like pie crust They used fake crab and didn't even take the time to cut into small pieces. The Pad Thai was disgusting, chunks of chicken, not even cut up. Pad Thai is made with dried rice noodles and the noodles on my plate were something else completely. The waitress brought a complimentary salad with some disgusting red stuff on top - this salad thing is NOT served in authentic Thai restaurants, believe me. I was afraid to touch it. The waitress was unbelievably rude, she didn't even give me time to read the menu before she asked for my order; the place was dead - only three other people and it took her five minutes to even acknowledge me. Fortunately, I know what authentic Thai food tastes like - I feel really sorry for Roanokers who eat this crap and think it's real Thai food, believe me it's not. I have just moved to Roanoke and have only found one good ethnic restaurant - Pho Vietnam on Orange Avenue. The food is fantastic as is the service! Am going up to Boston to visit friends and can't wait to eat some authentic Thai and Italian food. read more

Great food. Friendly service. The owner is a nice old guy. I had the green curry. Nice range of spices. They brought some out to the table, as well as made our orders as we wanted -- from mild to spicy. Good Pad Thai as well. Best Thai food we've had in the area. Will come back. read more

The spring rolls where greasy to the point that the inside where saturated. There was no hot mustard available only watery sweet and sour sauce. The glass noodles with the vegetables came with white rice. Nothing wrong until I tasted a not so fresh yet musty taste of the veggies. Nothing is as fresh as homemade right? But no excuse for the lack in experience. No revisit anytime ever. read more

The green papaya salad = full of browning iceburg lettuce filler duck kapow = very salty, oily obviously not fresh pad thai vegetables = definitely not fresh, and full of oil definitely not worth it. read more

I love thai and this was a great find! I ordered tom khai gai, iced coffee and curried linguine! It was also really spicy as I requested. The bill was $25 but it was a lot of food. (I had lunch there.) I was charged for an extra order of white rice but I'm not complaining. It would have been more fun if my partner ordered some dishes. I'm not in this area often, but if I was, I'd come often! Loved it! read more

I've eaten at many Thai restaurants all over the world. This place is top notch. We had a large group and so we tried almost everything, including the desserts. Everything was wonderful -- the duck curry, beef massaman curry, fish dish with fried basil leaves, penang curry, etc. For those who think they know Thai food -- this is almost as good as Jaiya Thai in NYC. read more

Great food! Classics like Pad Thai and drunken noodles were both delicious. Best wonton soup I have ever eaten! Garden rolls were so fresh and delicious. I like to invite out of town friend here, since it is consistently good. Pleasant service - great location - reasonably prices for a sit down place! read more

I'm new to Roanoke and am pleasantly surprised that I keep discovering some great places to eat. Coming from a place with lots of Thai restaurants I wasn't holding my breath...but it was spot on here. Pad Thai is my thing...and they nailed it. read more

Their ability to properly fill orders has drastically decreased over the past few meals. I am done giving them chances after tonight. Tonight, I ordered Thai fried rice with beef and my partner order kapow fried rice. When we got our food, mine had chicken and his had bell peppers. I commented on the mistake on my meal. He apologized for not telling them beforehand and informed them that he is allergic to bell peppers. Our waitress said that she would have them remade. The second time the food came out, my meal was completely wrong (I was later informed that it was Tom Thai rice) and his still had bell peppers, even after we had communicated his food allergy. This is unacceptable and absolutely ridiculous. An incorrect order is one thing, but to ignore a food allergy is dangerous and stupid. read more

Never having had Thai food before, my date and I tried several different things on the menu. All were excellent! Bangkok rolls, Tom Kha Kai was out of this world! Our server was one if the best waitresses I've ever had. And we eat out a lot. Will definitely be returning soon. read more

Yuk. This place was filthy. There was dried food splattered across one chair at our table, and when the fresh rolls came out, the lettuce inside was brown, obviously not fresh. The worst though was my tofu dish with the wiry black hair in it. The least I can say is that they didn't make me pay for the dish with the hair in it. The food without hair tasted ok, but nothing I would go back for. I've had much better and more flavorful Thai in other places. read more

Went here for my Mom's birthday. First off the restaurant was very very cold and my family had to wear jackets the entire meal. Second the food was abhorrent. My wife and mom's chicken pad Thai were orange with no bean sprouts or scallions, this was definitely frozen PF Changs. My drunken noodles with chicken were laden with inedible chunks of God knows what with a slightly medicinal taste. Surprisingly the best thing on the menu was my daughters Gen Tso's Chicken. It was the best I've ever tasted. That's weird considering I got the best Chinese food I have ever tasted on a trip to a Thai eatery... I will not waste my time here again. The City Corner 2 is the best Thai in town and I will not make the mistake of eating anywhere else again. read more

I eat here all the time (weekly), and it's so good. The portions are generous, the food comes hot and spicy, and you feel like gold after you eat it. and I have never had a problem with service or bad food. The bad reviews on this restaurant make me question the human race. Favorites dishes: Kapow Fried Rice Pad See Ew Drunken Noodles read more

My friend and I arrived to the empty Thai continental restaurant. Quickly seated for a lunch meal the waiter seemed attentive and brought us our side salads to start the meal... The side salads were good simple small... We both ordered a spicy beef salad as our entree, boy were we in for a"treat". As the side salads left the table the entrees came... Too quick... As the first bites went into my mouth I spit the slimy rancid beef and wilted greens out of my mouth... I looked up to see my friend pulling the rancid food out of his mouth.. I started wiping my tongue with most adjacent napkin... The moment was fast and frightening... My friend let out the first spoken words of the horror.. " I ate a little, I think I ate some of it.." he was shockenly appalled... There was a few seconds of distressed looks at the food and each other.. the manager came over and said " no good" we shook our heads... The moment had turned comedic as I had never put rancid food in my mouth.. and now it seemed like a hilarious situation with the oddity of it all.. the manager hurried the food away... I broke out into uncontrollable laughter put a dollar on the table... We both ran out of Thai continental... Shell shocked we got some dogs and Fry's... We were oddly happy to have real edible food in our stomachs! read more

Roanoke does not have many great dining spots to begin with and it is definitely not a cultured area at all. Which makes decent ethnic food even harder to find. Most places in Roanoke are only mediocre but this place is far less. If you are looking for the best Thai food in the area, I'd suggest, Red Jasmine in Vinton. read more

From out of town and was looking for a place to grab a quick bite and found this fabulous restaurant! Owner/host was amazing and very attentive, so friendly and helpful (and funny!). I wish I was from here so I could become a regular. Definitely recommend this tasty place! read more
