    Chicken Pad Thai
    Matthew K.

    Came here for lunch today with some friends--two of them had never had Thai food before, and they loved it! I think this is our third or fourth time at Thai Orchid, and it never disappoints. My wife and I consider ourselves a bit snobbish when it comes to Thai, and our litmus test is always the chicken Panang curry and chicken Pad Thai. Both were delicious today, as usual. Thai Canteen in Midtown is still our favorite, but this place is a very close second. Definitely one of our go-tos whenever we get a hankering for Thai food.

    3/26/24. Pad Thai Chicken & Shrimp Lunch price $11.25+. M-Sat. Comes w/ semi-crispy curry pop. Authentic! Flavorful! PHENOMENAL!

    3/26/24. Fiancé called ahead of time and ordered. Got there around 12:45PM. I can't tell you if it was busy or ambiance of the place cause I wasn't the one who went in and picked up the order. 5/5 stars. Pad Thai Chicken and Shrimp Lunch price $11.25+. 11AM to 3PM. Monday to Saturday. - Served with curry pop (type of a small semi-crispy, curry empanada). You can still order Pad Thai during their normal business hours but the price will go up to $12.75 to $13+. Still not bad! Especially how authentic I feel this place is through their Pad Thai. I think they use fresh ingredients because we ate it all and it didn't make us feel sleepy nor drowsy. I loved all the flavors. I can taste the shrimp, chicken and lalalalove the taste of the egg! The subtle yet umami flavor of sweet and savory makes you want to eat more. IT IS THAT DELICIOUS!!! It's been a while since I had pad thai and this spot gotsss it! On point! 5/5 stars. Shrimp Hot & Sour Soup. $8+ cup size - It does kind of taste like Tom Yum soup except some things were missing: maybe tamarind, lemon grass and spice level? Not sure, but I still really loved it! It has mushrooms, pieces of tomatoes, and strands of onions for texture. Loved the soup! Not too over powering. They gave 2 pieces of shrimp. My mouth is salivating as I type this! Lol. If I'm in the area, I would definitely come back! Happy eat's ya'll! =)

    Perfect takeout packaging 10-3-23. Looking forward to trying the surprise candy during the day, just in case it has caffeine. Haha

    First visit tonight, takeout. Called ahead and the man who answered was epitome of Thai = polite, soft-spoken, service-oriented. He was able to answer all of my questions without issue. With veggie and chicken Tom kha soup, no seafood Tom kha, I opted for yellow curry chicken ($14) and brown rice ($3). One question I asked was if the curry was enough for two. His answer was perfect. He felt no, but everything about the call, my intuition that he's likely the owner of a locally-owned business and running the show solo, and the fact this Thai spot was in my bookmarks for a while, I ordered. The curry was more liquid than sauce and larger pieces of solid foods than expected but perfect medium spice (as requested) and the flavor was excellent. It'll make 1.25 to 1.5 servings for me. I'm happy. I plan to return. Khxbkhuṇ (Translation: thank you)

The whole dining space looks really stunning and comfortable for dining in. It was amazing watching the chef cook in the open kitchen! I ordered the Sichuan shrimp combo fried rice and Mongolian beef. The Sichuan shrimp combo fried rice was perfectly wok‑hei, well‑seasoned, plenty of plump, juicy shrimp in every bite. Mongolian beef was absolutely fantastic, tender slices of beef coated in rich, savory‑sweet sauce, not overly greasy at all. Every dish tasted fresh and full of flavor. The staff provided excellent, attentive service, very polite and quick to respond to requests. Service was friendly and efficient. This place is definitely on my to go list, highly recommend stopping by!

I already left her a review on Google before, but she definitely deserves one here on Yelp too. Kaya always goes above and beyond whenever we come in. She's friendly, attentive, welcoming, and always makes sure my family is well taken care of. We've had different servers before, but Kaya really stands out with how consistent and thoughtful her service is every single time. The food is always good and consistent too, which is why this has become one of our family's regular spots. It's always nice coming back, enjoying a good meal together, and seeing a familiar face who remembers us and makes us feel welcome. Amazing food and amazing service every time. Thank you, Kaya! My family and I will definitely keep coming back!

    i don't usually have high expectations for restaurants that serve such a wide variety of items…read more.. but i was recommended ktown by several people, so i gave it a try. it wasn't very busy when we came on a friday night. the interior was decorated with neon lights, and it was spacious. i thought the seats and table felt a bit sticky, and the rest of the restaurant didn't feel too clean either. we were seated quickly, and service was friendly. our server explained the menu - essentially, the soups and meats for hot pot could be ordered off the menu, and everything else could be grabbed at the bar. there were a lot of options, and i was excited to try everything. i ordered the szechuan mala broth, which i thought was so mediocre. it was pretty spicy but otherwise bland, like there wasn't any real flavor. i usually like to drink my hot pot broth, but i didn't think it was good enough to sip a lot of. the thai tom yum was a better soup, but it still wasn't super flavorful. it tasted like a watered down tom yum - not super tangy. i also typically like to dip my meats in sauce, and ktown offered a sauce bar with all of the basics, including sesame sauce, soy sauce, ponzu, cilantro, garlic, and other things. there were also sauces for kbbq here, like brisket sauce. there was a lot of variety for meat options, but they were all just a lot thicker and tougher than i expected. our server explained that the ones on the menu were really just for hot pot, but we used some of them for kbbq anyway because we wanted more unmarinated meats. most of the meats at the bar were marinated. i would recommend avoiding this with the beef tongue. it was so thick and extremely chewy, although it was better when cooked in the hot pot broth. the beef belly is usually my favorite cut, but it was also chewy. the black angus brisket was okay; it was on the tougher and drier side. the us kobe beef was my favorite cut of beef because it was the least chewy. the pork shoulder and pork belly were also just okay; i liked that the pork belly was a thinner cut. i probably enjoyed it the most. the australian wagyu was just too dry. the new zealand lamb was right there with the beef tongue as the worst cut because again, it was very chewy, even in the hot pot broth... the broth kind of masked the texture of the meats, but it was so bland that i needed a lot of sauce. at the bar, there was a variety of seafood for the hot pot, including clams, mussels, fish, shrimp, and crawfish. they also offered a good selection of vegetables, like enoki mushrooms, peppers, cabbage, spinach, and onions. there were also quail eggs, roe pockets, fish balls, and dumplings, among other things. there were a lot of meats at the bar for kbbq, but they weren't labeled nor set out in any particular pattern. the spicy pork bulgogi was overmarinated, but it was one of my favorites (of the meats on the menu and the ones set out) because the sauce masked the low quality of meat. it was the typical korean spicy pork marinade - not too spicy and slightly sweet. we also tried the bulgogi, and it was also typical - sweet as expected. they set out thicker cuts of pork belly here, which were super heavy and fatty. almost all of the meats were marinated in some kind of sauce. there were some steaks that were just seasoned with salt and pepper, but they were so tough. there were a lot of other appetizers and hot dishes too, although everything looked like it was left out for a while. i saw kimchi, beansprout salads, cold potato salads, cucumbers, seaweed salads, fried dumplings, tempura, and some other things. i tried the wings, which were plain and kind of dry, and the skin wasn't crispy anymore. the japchae was okay, but there wasn't a lot of flavor. there were some mussels that were covered in cheese and a creamy sauce, which made them pretty heavy. the seafood boil was lukewarm, but the seasoning was okay. it was just a little oily. i did enjoy their corn cheese, which we heated up ourselves over the kbbq grill. i liked that it was slightly sweet. on the side of the bar, there was a variety of nigiri, sashimi, and sushi rolls - all poor quality. the salmon nigiri and sashimi weren't tender nor soft, and neither were the tuna or yellowtail. they were kind of mushy and slightly rubbery. the rolls were better, although they were almost all variations of california rolls doused in sauce - most of them had spicy mayo and a sweet glaze. the sauce at least masked the quality of the fish. overall, ktown was a jack of all trades and master of none. while i was impressed by the extensive variety of options, i got full very quickly because the quality of food wasn't the best. if someone ever needed a restaurant with options for everyone, then i might suggest ktown, but i wouldn't really be able to say i liked the hot pot, sushi, or kbbq. since i would rather have tasty food over lots of options, i wouldn't come back.

    This is my local Panera and happy to call them that cause they always give great service…read more On my most recent visit, the employee at the drive thru was another example of that, notifying me that I had a coupon to use in my Panera rewards account and handing me my bag with a smile and thank you. Food-wise, everything is usually great. I would say if they offer more dressing for the green goddess cobb salad, it'd add more flavor because I tasted mostly lettuce and the toppings. Otherwise, I like Panera's food. While Panera is pricey in my opinion, joining the rewards club is worth it because they have good discounts and freebies every now and then as well. Thanks!

I also needed it to feed a family of four and not be wildly expensive- I saw Panera's family meal option on TikTok and I thought what the heck. We did the premium option with dessert. It was $45.- that included 4 half sandwiches, A quart of soup An entrée sized salad One full baguette And four chocolate chip cookies. It also included little bowls for the soup, pots of butter for the bread and all the utensils. They were a little busy, but they were so sweet at the drive-through! This was the perfect blend of fresh, but also comforting and very filling. Of course, I had to get the Fuji apple chicken salad because that never disappoints. I grabbed the grilled chicken avocado sandwich, and I don't know if I was just in my feelings today, but that was an absolute winner! So good it tasted like a homemade sandwich with fresh bread, creamy avocado, and just the right amount of mayo. I mean, the bag probably weighed 5 pounds! It was such a good deal. The other sandwiches we got were the chicken, bacon rancher, and the ciabatta cheesesteaks. I wouldn't say they were the best sandwiches ever, but still a good value overall. Tomato soup -incredible! Baguette? Delicious- duh- Every once in a while, I'll get a meal from Panera. That's a little disappointing but more times than not I leave feeling very full satisfied and excited to go back.

Last time we were there I thought I was able to get just plain tortillas from the tortillas lady spot. But she looked confused then I asked for a few flour tortillas.

I guess next time we will ask the server. We started with the omelets this time. Very good and well made. We tried many things, hard to take pictures.

The portions have been cut in 1/2 for a lot of menu items here over the last 5 years namely the chimichangas but seems like everything else too. The chimichangas used to be twice the size they are now and were loaded with cheese. Now they have no cheese and 1/2 the filling so there mostly flour tortilla now. Very disappointing and the plates they use now are smaller, they used to serve the food on these huge platters. Anyway went there last night (1st time in 3 years) and this is the plate I got. The 2 chimichangas are now the same size as the tamale on the other side of the plate.The service was terrible too. We did not get our food until almost an hour and by the time the food showed up we were full from the chips and bean dip and salsa wich by the way we had to wave them down several times as we seemed invisible to refill the chips and our drinks. We wont be going back again for probably another 3 years. I highly recommend Felipe's in Citrus heights on Auburn blvd. Way better value and the food quality is on par with el tapatio but with five star service!
