    We were on the interstate looking at Yelp for recommendations. Do not judge a book by its cover!…read moreThe service was five star, Robert was genuine, incredibly helpful, helped us make selections off the menu. Our service was fast as the food came before we even realized we had ordered it. If you are searching for true Thai cuisine, that is authentic and incredibly flavorful, You must try this place. It's true and some of the other reviews have said it, the outside leaves nothing to be desired and the inside could even use a little help. However, do not drive by. We pulled up after reading reviews, and I almost didn't go in just because of the outside and what a mistake that would have been. This is a five star a rating restaurant.

    Solid 4.5 Stars here - Don't judge this place by its cover... the food is outstanding…read more This was our third visit to Thai Orchid over the last few years while we are visiting the area, and the food has never disappointed. I'll be honest...the exterior looks a bit rundown, and the interior (including the bathrooms) could definitely use some cleaning and updating. But when we go out to eat, it's about the food first, and this place delivers where it matters most. We started with the veggie spring rolls, which I'd rate about a 7.5/10, good, but not the highlight (you can only do so much with veggie spring rolls lol). For our entrees, we ordered the drunken noodles with tofu (partner is vegetarian) and I had the pineapple duck curry (it cane with a small salad). The drunken noodles were excellent--9/10, with great flavor and balance. The pineapple duck curry was a standout 10/10 for me, rich, flavorful, crispy duck skin and absolutely worth coming back for. We arrived just after 5 PM on a Saturday and were the first ones there. We were seated immediately, and the service was very good throughout. The menu is huge, with plenty of options, and prices are reasonable for a specialty Thai/Asian restaurant in Orangeburg. We ordered both dishes at a mild spice level, and they came out perfect, just enough heat without being overpowering. Bottom line: the building could use some love, but don't let that stop you. The real treat here is what comes out of the kitchen. If you're in Orangeburg and craving Thai food, give Thai Orchid a try, you'll likely be pleasantly surprised by the quality.

    This was my first time eating at Kao, and as someone who absolutely loves Thai food, I was really…read moreexcited to try it. The atmosphere was amazing, a cozy quaint spot in a what seemed to be a great part of the city. The bar was nice and overall decor of the restaurant was eclectic without feeling overdone. Our server (I believe her name was Havvy), was pleasant as well. We started with the crab rangoons and spring rolls. The crab rangoons were a 10/10, and the spring rolls were solid as well. I'd definitely order both again. I ordered the pad kapow, which is my go-to dish I like to start with at any new Thai restaurant. The presentation of the rice was really cute and the dish itself was rich and full of flavor. My husband ordered the pineapple fried rice with beef, it was phenomenal, just as flavorful and satisfying. We ordered cocktails as well, which were made perfectly, and since it was our anniversary, we treated ourself to the coconut cake. After the first bite, I wasn't sure about the cake, but by the second bite I was SOLD. If you're looking for a laidback, non-pretentious spot to enjoy a great meal, cocktails or even just a small bite, I definitely recommend.

    KAO is a nice little date-night spot right off Main Street. It's "fancier Thai" kind of like Basil…read morewhich is located in Forest Acres. How did it hold up? Pros: - Fair prices (it is considered "fancier") - Fun cocktails - Food was great - Seating was nice and spaced out (not super close to anyone) - Cons: - Food Menu was typical for Thai I'd overall recommend KAO. It's in a great location for downtown (super close to the beginning of mainstreet) and it's a fun little date night. I had the drunken noodles with chicken and my date had shrimp/chicken padthai. They were both really solid. Not like...amazingly phenomenal, but a really tasty dinner. I recently went to 929 and was glad to not be sitting right beside someone. It was nice to be able to have a conversation without hearing other people's.
