    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.

    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!

    Very cute and quiet ambiance with great customer service. The food was AMAZING! I ordered the samosas, tofu green curry and a non-alcoholic shirley temple. I literally went back 2 days later!! I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

    This place will always hit! I love it so much. Came here with a friend to catch up and they are always just so friendly and inviting. And the food never misses. This time around, I had to get the Tom Kha and I got some pad Thai. I love how they have specials that change with the season. My friend enjoyed her meal as well.

    This place is so tasty! Took my dude here for a birthday lunch and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Service was super nice, the restaurant is so cute. The parking lot is a hazard so be careful. Get the mango sticky rice - they cook the rice with pandan!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    Decent spot for a quick takeout order. We tried the spring rolls, pad see ew, chicken Panang curry, and chicken pad Thai, and everything was good. The food was ready on time, and it wasn't too busy on a Sunday night. The interior is cute, making it a nice place to hang out if you decide to dine in.

    HIDDEN GEM!!!!!!! This spot was a bit hard to find based on the address on google but once we did we were so happy! The interior is soo nice and clean and the staff was so friendly and welcoming! The food was well made, fresh, and clearly made with love! The mango sticky rice was the best I ever had and was so flavorful. This is their moms recipe! Parking is free but may be tight because of a small parking area.

    Just had lunch here for the first time and it was fantastic! We had Thai dumplings and two lunch specials (great value) - spring rolls and pad Thai, and tom kha soup and panang curry. We were the first customers and the staff went out of their way to provide exceptional service. Can't wait to come back to try more, the menu looks amazing!

Even though it was quite crowded, everything felt very well organized. The wait time to be seated was reasonable, and the staff were warm and welcoming from the start. Our waiter, Lorena, truly stood out. She was incredibly patient and accommodating while we took our time deciding what to order, and she was very helpful in guiding us through the menu. On top of that, she had such a pleasant and positive attitude that made the whole experience even better. As for the food--it did not disappoint. I had the salmon, which I would absolutely recommend. My daughter ordered the steak frites with French fries, which was excellent, and my other daughter had the same dish with mashed potatoes. Everything was so good that we left our plates embarrassingly clean. We'll definitely be coming back.

Our assigned server only came to our table twice--once to take our order and once to drop off the check. It was another staff member who actually provided a majority of the service - she brought us warm bread, delivered our food, and refilled our drinks multiple times. When it came time to pay, I paid in cash using a larger bill. The server assumed I was giving a large tip and was about to walk away with no intention of giving me my change. I made no comment of "keep the change" I then had to awkwardly ask for my change back so I could leave a tip separately. He proceeded to ask how much change I wanted, putting me on the spot and feeling pressured to leave a large tip (mind you, I was going to already leave a tip). Because of this, I ended up leaving a much larger tip (over 50%) than I had intended, especially considering the level of service he provided us. I understand that I could have been more firm about asking for all my change back, but guests should never feel pressured or uncomfortable when paying. Overall, the service experience with our waiter overshadowed what could have been an otherwise enjoyable visit.

I was super impressed and dare I say blown away by just about everything!

Despite it being super busy - our sever was very attentive (especially on a holiday evening), and even came to let us know the kitchen was closing and if we wanted desserts, we had 10-15 mins to place the order/s.

Very good. Normal spicy is probably too mild for me. Good flavors. I like to get a side of broccoli to add more veggies to the dish. It comes with broccoli already but I like a little more. Oh, and the decor is really nice. Love the designs inside. Very cool. Give them a try!
