    Pad Kra Pow Ground Pork (Hot heat level)
    Alan D.

    My wife & I were craving Thai food and saw this spot on Yelp. Only 5 minutes from our place so we slid through. Being a Bay Area Cali boy you know I'm all about the flavors and this place had me shook . Food was straight fire and flavors were on point. Started with the Tom Yum Soup with pork. It was flavorful, and that tangy kick wakes your taste buds up. I knew we were about to get our grub on lol. The Pad Kra Pow with ground pork and your choice of heat levels which I went for the hot. Come on now if you're eating Thai food you gotta have some heat. Had a few bites and moments later that heat sneaks up on you. You know the kind where your head starts forming little sweat beads. My wife even took a pic of me looking like I just ran a mile outside in the humidity here in TN lol. Drunken Noodles were smackin! One of those plates where you say you'll save some for later but somehow it magically disappears cause it was that good. The Yellow Curry was creamy and loaded with flavor. My wife loved it and basically claimed it as hers lol. The Chili fried Shrimp was crispy and still hot after sitting for 10 to 15 minutes. No joke I was impressed. Fried Dumplings were tasty little bites that hit the spot. It was a good starter. Prices are solid and affordable. I could have ordered everything lol. The food was excellent. The service & staff were very friendly. Place is clean & plenty of tables to sit. I didn't think TN had legit Thai food and I had my doubts but after eating here those doubts are gone. We're already plotting our next visit to try more of the menu. Can't wait to come back

    I got the Pork Pad See Ew and it was legit! The noodles were cooked perfectly, and it had the right blend of sweet soy sauce. It paired well with their delicious Thai tea. One of the best lunches I've had in a while since decent Thai food is very hard to find in middle TN... Only thing that made me sad is that they didn't have Thai bird chili in fish sauce (prik nam pla). They do have chili powder, chili oil, pickled japaleno and sambal though. The place was spacious, clean and the service was friendly and efficient. I loved being able to hear them cook, that wok was nonstop! Can't wait to come back for more!

    I visited Thai Orchid with a group of friends. We were seated right away upon arrival. None of us had been there before, but our waitress happily gave us some suggestions from the menu. We started with crab delight and egg roll appetizers. The egg rolls were more like spring rolls, but still very tasty. The crab delights (crab Rangoons) were also good. For our meals, our party tried the shrimp spring rolls, chicken teriyaki, chicken stir fry, and one chicken and one shrimp pad Thai. Be warned, even the mild spice is pretty spicy! But we all found our meals to be delicious and portions were just right. We enjoyed our visit to Thai Orchid and I recommend it if you are in the area.

    Thai Orchid is one of the best restaurants to have opened in Hendersonville in 2024!! I am so happy to have this Thai food spot around the corner because the food is good! It's not the fanciest restaurant but no frills works when the food is tasty and service is good. I noticed when it first opened. It is located right on E Main. I heard it was a chicken spot previously. When my friend and I met for dinner on a Sunday night there was a line of people ordering or picking up to-go, which seemed like a good sign! If you haven't been open that long and are already this busy, then the food must be good. We still didn't have a hard time getting a table but it was certainly active. Our server was very personable and nice. She helped in recommendations and decisions and was very attentive but not like overbearing. The owner/chef came out later and was also friendly. He shared how they make their food fresh. When we dined in I got the Tom Kha soup (coconut milk) with tofu, pad sew eww and spring rolls. I enjoyed them all. The tom kha, which is a favorite of mine among thai cuisine, just didn't seem as authentic or what I am used to between cilantro, pepper or visible lime juice but it was still creamy & tasty. My friend had the shrimp fried rice with pineapple and she enjoyed it! When I ordered takeout recently I got fried rice with chicken and added broccoli. Again, made hot and fresh. They didn't hold the onions as requested but it wasn't so bad. I was able to get like 3 or 4 meals our of that serving. The egg rolls are only $2 for 2. I look forward to trying the Pad Thai and their curries. This is more like a 4.5 star rating. I will continue supporting Thai Orchid! It's nice to have a reliable Thai restaurant close to home; something I was very used to back in Dallas. I hope they stick around! Go check them out.

    Ate dinner at Thai Orchid and it was delicious. The food is fresh prepared with fresh ingredients. The serving size is plentiful and beautifully presented. If you aren't too hungry, plan to take some food home. Thai Orchid is located in former fast food restaurant, nothing fancy. We were able to put our order in promptly and served as soon as the food was ready. A great addition to the food choices in Hendersonville.

    Happy to see Uncle's new place in Hendersonville just 5 mins down the road from my place of business! Came here for lunch on a Thursday at 1:30 & it was busy. However, there were plenty of places to sit & we were taken to a table quickly. Service was excellent & we had our food in no time after ordering. I went with the massaman curry w chicken & Thai tea. My wife had the pho & spring rolls. Our favorite Thai restaurant in the area is Thai phooket II in Goodlettsville & I'm glad to say this is just as good. Looking forward to grabbing lunch here often.

    Outside Sign

    Holy cow... Where do I even begin. I want to preface this with the fact that this area doesn't have a good Thai restaurant. There are very few options and they aren't amazing by any means. If you want Thai that's delicious, your only choice is to go into Nashville. Every few days, I drive down Main Street to take my daughter to her dance studio. Previously, this was a local hot chicken restaurant that went out of business. I noticed the sign and wondered when it would open. As I was driving back home today, I noticed A LOT of cars in the parking lot. Convenient too because I was wondering what I was going to do for dinner since I just got back from a work trip and I had no groceries. I walked in and this place was slammed. Line out the door. I was told they opened on the 30th but their grand opening is October 10th. While waiting in line, a lady told me she's been a few times already and she's a foodie from Austin and this place ties with some of the best there. She told me that the only comparable place was VN Pho in East Nashville. I know VN Pho, that place is legit so I knew she knew what she was talking about. Excited, I got table service and ordered the Tom Kha and Red Curry. This place is CHEAP. With tax, it was $18.16 and I left completely full. The Tom Kha was THE BEST Tom Kha ever. Perfect balance of sweet coconut and tart. The ingredients were fresh and the slices of chicken were absolutely perfect. It was so good, I drank the broth directly from the bowl. No using a spoon here. The Red Curry was equally fantastic. A rich, sweet flavor, fresh veggies, tender slices of pork, with plenty of spices for that extra kick. The food was so good, I started texting everyone I knew that loved Thai food and said they needed to come here. I have a new go-to place for Thai and it's in my own backyard. I can't wait to try the other dishes.

    Pad Kra Pao
    Connie A.

    Ordered takeout for lunch. Ordered a Pad Kra Pao, eggs rolls $2 for 2, and thai tea. Overall, good experience. The dish was a little bit more salty than what I'm used to but the prices were reasonable.

    I yearn for this.

    Thai Orchid (Uncle's Place) in Hendersonville used to be my favorite restaurant. I went there at least once a week for their curries, which quality can't be found anywhere else nearby. Then they changed their hours, probably as a reaction to high inflation of food prices. Okay, but they appear to have made a point of being open only during hours/days when I'm not able to go. This is when they're open: Sat-dinner only Sun-lunch only Mon-lunch only Tues-dinner only Wed-lunch only Thurs-dinner only Fri-lunch only Who does that? Absolutely nobody. My daily schedule of dialysis, church, and nights I cook for my son allows me to eat out only for dinner on M-W-F and only for lunch on T-Th. Because of dialysis I NEED to not cook dinner on M-W-F, and I have restaurants I frequent on those days. For awhile I thought Thai Orchid had closed down completely because it's been closed every time I went there. I would be there EVERY SINGLE WEEK if there were even one day I could go. Hint: many other restaurants are closed entirely on Mondays. They could be closed two entire days a week and I would still be able to frequent them. I'm writing this hoping the Thai Orchid folks read their Yelp reviews and will consider making their schedule a little more consistent during the week. Please. I miss your coconut milk curries and Thai Food is scarce around here. I'd be there now if you were open.

    Chicken fried rice & Thai noodles

    My dad and I tried this restaurant and we are OBSESSED. From the second we walked in, the place was so clean and smelled absolutely amazing. The owner actually came out to talk to us and was the sweetest ever, he told us we could call him uncle and instantly made us feel like family. He also shared that all of the food is made fresh, and you can truly taste it in every bite. The ambience was beautiful, the service was incredible, and the whole place just felt so warm and welcoming. It genuinely felt like being in a big family kitchen. I will be back a million times and I really hope everyone comes and supports this place because it is SUCH a gem

    Our servers' name is Po. She is knowledgeable and friendly. For Appetizers we had some young spicy Thai soup and wonton soup. Very delicious. The broth of the soup has the taste of homemade. We ordered basil stir fry w/duck and Ginger stir fry w/beef. Rice comes with the entree. Nice atmosphere and the rest is clean.

    Thai food always hits the spot. Everything here was a 10/10. We started with the crunchy crab roll,…read morethe fried dumplings, and the crab Rangoons. My partner doesn't even like sushi and even he said "this is the best sushi I have tried" & yes it was that good! The eel sauce is a must!! The fried dumplings were very different from any other fried dumpling I have ever tried, but in a good way. The crab Rangoons were different too the inside was yellowish, which I'm used to seeing a white cheese interior, the filling melted perfectly in your mouth as you take a bite of the crunchy exterior. Amazing! For the main entree both dishes were stars packed with flavor and comfort; crispy chicken pad kee mao & the thao sai chicken noodle curry soup. We both had left overs as the portions here are great! The lychee fruit tea was so refreshing and delicious. The service here is pretty good and the inside is spacious with TVs, they were even playing a Harry Potter movie. Overall, I had a great experience and will certainly be back.

    I wish I lived closer to here, because I'd love to have a Go-to Thai food place. I usually judge…read moreThai restaurants by how good their phad thai is. And it was delicious here at Poy. We also had some sushi rolls and fried tofu and they were also good. The menu has a lot of choices of Thai fusion food, so there's something g for everyone. The place is big enough for families with a nice ambience. The wait staff was also very kind and friendly and attentive. I'd definitely come here again when I'm in the area.

    I wanted to keep this place a secret but it is too good not to share with everyone. As you walk in…read morethe server instantly guides you to a table, each time I come the service is pretty quick and there is usually no wait. The prices are very reasonable & parking is not hard to find as it is located in a plaza with Kroger right next to it. Everything in the menu is worth trying. There is not a single thing I have ordered that I have regretted. When I first came here I would only order the seafood noddle soup. The flavor from that soup is something I have never experienced before and my taste buds have always been satisfied with that soup, but the more I go the more I try something new and each time I don't regret it! That's so rare for everything in a menu to hit?! Some other entrees I have tried are loved are the sweet and sour chicken, beef yaki udon, Thai basil fried rice, pad Thai noodles, and the Singapore beef mei fun noodles. The appetizers all are incredible too some of my favorites are the crab Rangoon's, coconut shrimp, scallion pancakes, and the shrimp shu mai. The Thai iced tea is a must here! I get it every single time I visit.

    This place offers a variety of Asian food. Chinese, thai, and Japanese. I regrettably ordered from…read morethe Thai side and it was not good. I ordered the coconut fried rice because I love coconut and thought it sounded delicious. Wrong. It was so bland and odd tasting. It wasn't so bad I couldn't eat it but I had to add some of my friends regular fried rice to it to make it enjoyable. Now on the veggie spring rolls. They're definitely frozen and not freshly made. I could tell because of how mushy they were. All in all it was a pretty disappointing meal. I think this place might be good for standard American Chinese but they missed the mark on the dishes I ordered. I'll stick with my usual thai spot for freshly made and seasoned food. I did takeout and the food was ready quickly... maybe another reason it wasn't good? Idk go at your own risk.
