The food was great. It was made the way we wanted. I eat it as if I was deep in Thailand. The server we had, was great. He made sure we had everything. He was going to all the tables as well as taking care of the take out orders. It was quiet enough so you could speak to each other at the table, and I think the thia music low in the background was a nice touch. We had Num Tuk Beef Salad. Which you can ask for in difflevels of spicy. Red curry with beef, was seasoned to perfection. Basil chicken, forgot the Thia name for this. But again prepared excellently. I had Thia ice tea. Which when you eat spicy foods is great to have. read more

Like many of my food adventures- I was leaving the gym, starving and looking something to satisfy my hunger! As often the case, Thai Lemon to the rescue. It's fast, convenient, healthy and never busy! (They seem to do more take-out business). But I'm happy to grab a seat here. The decor here is quite interesting. There are so many inspirational signs. I dont know where people find their "Live, Laugh, Love" signs but they've hit the jackpot on it. And they provide a lot of amusement while eating! There are also funny signs about not being drunk here - various bar signs even though it's not a bar. My go-to orders here are pad see ew with beef and extra Chinese broccoli and a singha beer. My wife gets the same but with tofu or drunken noodles. I love the silverware that they have here. They're gold forks and knives, and heavy! They feel so luxe. My friends often order the Thai ice tea or coffee and they rave about those drinks, too. I usually cap my meal with a mango sticky rice. It's one of my favorite desserts of all time! In my recent order, the dessert came with green pandan rice and crispy bits on top! Always so good. read more

I have eaten in here and gotten take out a few times. The inside is smartly decorated and not many seated here when I have gotten to go orders. We usually get the Pad Thai, drunken noodles and papaya salad. All of them good, nothing spectacular. I will probably continue to rotate between here and my other go to Thai place. read more

Immediately greeted upon entering. Open, minimally decorated restaurant, in a good way. Light colors and natural light..tranquil, soft Thai music playing in the background. I ordered take-away, shrimp bikinis and spring rolls. Everything was hot and crispy but the flavors were just blah. Not good, not bad. The best part was the interior of the restaurant and the homemade sweet and sour sauce which came with both appetizers. read more

I ran in here for a quick lunch. I wanted my favorite soup Tom Kha, and it did not disappoint! 10/10 I got the veggie version. No notes. Perfect! The crab Rangoon was a 0/10. No flavor at all even the sweet and sour wasn't tasty. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The food came out SUPER quick which I appreciated because I was in a time crunch. I would've ordered more if I had more time but those were two things I love and know the come out very quickly I maybe waited 5 minutes max! read more

Thai Lemon has been on my list of local places to try. As soon as you walk in you are instantly greeted and you feel like you have walked into a friends house for a delicious meal. The decor is nice and welcoming. There is a beautiful backdrop with the restaurants name. Thai Lemon offers lunch until. 3:00. Which is an appetizer and one entree. I ended up ordering off of the regular menu. The crab wontons were perfectly crispy and the there was plenty of filling on the inside. I ordered the panang chicken as my entree which was served with a side of rice. The curry was flavorful and did not pack a lot of heat which I appreciated. The portion was enough for me to have some leftovers which is always a plus for me. read more

Yum! It's not often a place has great flavor in every dish, but this place knocked it out of the park.

REAL TALK: I was super resistant in trying out Thai Lemon, as I thought the previous restaurant was trying to bamboozle the public by just 'renaming' their eatery - fortunately, this place has totally changed hands to new owners with a lovely refresh of the interior, along with the name! We came here for an early dinner, and we were greeted so warmly - we were able to choose anywhere to sit in the dining space, so we opted for the cute little bench area off to the side. The menu is pretty extensive, offering various apps, soups, curries, fried rice, noodles, fried rice entrees, chef's specialties, side dishes, and drinks. We ordered: +a Panang curry with tofu - this was my favorite of the night; while it wasn't thick in consistency, the flavor was phenomenal, being so tasty with a little bit of a kick! +the House Fried Rice with chicken - a simple rice dish; the hubs enjoyed this more than I did; I thought there was an off taste to it +Pad Thai with shrimp - generously served with large, deveined fresh shrimp; the noodles were cooked properly, the shrimp could have been a bit more fresh; they dressed the noodles with additional sauce, as requested! +and, Drunken Noodles with chicken - a nice spiciness to this, but was a little bland; it still had a great wok-fried flavor to it For their beverage, we gave their Homemade Lemonade a try, and this was super tart and very refreshing - yum! We also tried their Kluay Roti for dessert, which were fried roti filled with fresh banana, sprinkled with a cinnamon-sugar mixture, and drizzled with condensed milk and a chocolate sauce - this wasn't overly sweet, which was perfect, and a wonderful way to end the meal! All the portions were super generous, and the staff were so kind, attentive, and so sweet! Even the chef came out to ensure that everything was satisfactory - that's some service! I just have to note that everything here is kawaii-esque - the way the menu looks, the decorations, and all the attention to details, all around the restaurant - it's so nice! Prices are a tad bit higher compared to other restaurants. Don't sleep on Thai Lemon, and don't let the space's previous Thai restaurants' reputation throw you off - if you do, you'll regret in missing out on some Thai yumminess! Located in the Van Dorn Station Shopping Center, there's plenty of parking in the large plaza lot. +tasty Thai eats! +friendly & kind service! +located at the Van Dorn Station Shopping Center +plenty of parking in the large plaza lot read more

I love the restaurant's Pad Thai. Their combo menu in the lunch time comes with spring rolls or other sides. The restaurant's food quality is consistent as well. Waitresses were very nice and kind. The restaurant was quiet and the interior is beautiful and ready for selfies. Will recommend this restaurant to friends and family. read more

This restaurant is super cute, tucked away in the van dorn shopping plaza. It's impossible to see from the road so I missed it for a whole year after moving here! I was really intrigued hearing about the ambiance and the rave reviews and finally got to try it for myself with takeout. When I came in, I felt like I was entering someone's home, it was so cozy and I was greeted by a very kind woman with a smile. I ordered the chefs special shrimp clay pot, the chicken karipuffs, and the fish cakes. The clay pot was very good and a bonus is that the tails were cut off! Next time I might order it without spice as it seemed like it was just sprinkled with crushed red pepper and seemed to take away the true flavor of the dish. Regardless it was still great. The karipuffs and fish cakes were delicious especially with the tasty cucumber sauce they came with. I might be dreaming of those karipuffs for a while now. I'm excited to dine in next time and try more of the menu! read more

From the moment we walked into this establishment, the warm welcome and genuine hospitality set the tone. You can instantly feel that it's family owned and run with so much heart!

The interior is cozy and inviting and the incredible service makes you want to come back for more! Highly recommend. I'm already planning my next visit! read more

The restaurant is a small quaint place with plenty if parking. The restaurant is very well decorated in Alexandria Van Dorn St. Each plate we order is large (more than plenty for 2 people.) We came on a Tuesday night before Xmas. We ordered the crispy fish, green curry and Mango sticky rice for dessert. The meal was excellent and came quickly. Total bill $57.67 not including tip. We will definitely return again. read more

Got to this place and was first very happy with the parking situation. No parallel parking needed, small parking but it's a parking lot! Walked in and got greet right away by staff. We had a party of six and ordered so many different types of food. After we place the order, everything comes out fairly fast so I would rate service to be amazing. The restaurant is small but very roomy and cozy. Food ratings in my opinion: 1. Fried chicken wings: crispy, seasoned, perfect. Comes with chili sauce 2. Gyoza tasted home made and different. Crispy. 3. Pad see yew: Noodles and protein was perfectly seasoned, tasted perfect with the jalapeno 4. Pad Thai: A bit smaller portion than other thai places but was seasoned well. 5. Massamun Curry: Interesting taste and delicious with rice. Not my fav but it's everyone at the table's favorite. 6. Whole fried fish: The star of the show!!!! I love this dish and so does everyone else. Super crispy, sauce that comes with it was amazingly seasonsed. Price is reasonable. 7. drunken Noodles: yum! Always one of our go to dish at thai restaurant! 8. Fried tofu: Crispy, not enough sauce but still really good! 9. Papaya salad: Not my fav as it seems to be missing a little sour but still good. 10. Banana roti: MY FAV. It's soft on the outside and inside. Perfect amount of chocolate sauce and condense milk. I would be able to eat the dish by myself. 11. Fried banana and vanilla ice cream: fried banana egg rolls are crispy and so good witth ice cream. but nothing special 12. Mango sticky rice: I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to bring 5 of these dishes home because whyyy is it so good! The sticky rice is moist, soft and perfect with the mango. Lots of mango and rice but i should have bought one to bring home because the taste is amazing! My favorite thai restaurants mango sticky rice! Over all, with 12 dishes later, between the 6 of us, the price total was $187 which is not bad at all for alexandria area. If I'm ever in the area, i would love to come here again! read more

Was in the area and in the mood for some Thai. I'm glad I stumbled upon this super delicious spot. Came here for lunch and got the lunch special for $14.95. I ordered the fried gyoza and basil fried rice with chicken. I also couldn't pass up the crab Rangoon so I also did a side order. I was surprised how super cute and homey inside is. Overall the food and service were both great! read more

A return after (too long) a while for a Sunday dinner. We have ordered for delivery several times in the meantime, but the textures are never quite the same. We started with a selection of appetizers -- each better than the other. Delicate fresh house rolls with zing of mint. Plump flavorful House Dumplings that we can never omit. But the standout this time was the gyoza -- delicious filling in a crisp but delicate and greaseless wrapper. We proceeded to an exemplary Panang curry with perfectly cooked (not overcooked) shrimp and a delicious Pad See Ew. Naturally, friendly, courteous, and professional service. And the place is already decked out for Xmas. read more

Our first visit to Thai Lemon Restaurant was SUPERB ! From the moment we walked in the door we were embraced by the immaculate, charming, bright, and welcoming decor! Our server was prompt in greeting us with a smile and seating us at our table. As I read through the menu I could not help but notice the friendly atmosphere around us inside. It was SO nice ! We were instantly calmed. The menu was full of authentic and fresh Thai dishes that reminded us of our time spent in Asia. Our selected dishes came in good time and tasted wonderfully and FULL of authentic flavor. This fairly new restaurant hasn't been open that long , but I am sure they will be around for a LONG TIME! Please try this refreshing and enjoyable oasis that will transport you to a different place as soon as you walk in the door ! You won't be disappointed! read more
