    Went for lunch today and was greeted promptly..ordered Chicken Pad Thai Medium ...Lunch came with Soup and an Appetizer and a Thai Donut ..Food was served at lightening speed and was hot, fresh and delish....the place was decorated very nicely too when on the area I will be back again?

    Sweet And Sour Chicken
    Brigitte L.

    Came in for sweet and sour chicken and wonton soup. Staff was nice and was able to place the order to go at the counter. Ordered with a specific pick up time given my daughter was getting her hair done in the same plaza and we wanted to pick up dinner when heading home. The restaurant had a few folks dining in upon my arrival to place the order and given the Yelp reviews I read it seemed like a good place to get dinner. The soup I didn't even get a picture of but was ok. Wasn't the best but hubs said it was ok. The sweet and sour chicken however was not appetizing at all! This was actually what our dogs had (chicken only) after none of us wanted it. Won't be back here!

    Located at a really small strip mall in Tampa Palms. It's a really small location that serves really delicious Thai food, everything feels very authentic and thoroughly cooked for the lunch special. We were also served a fried Rangoon Thai style and also chicken soup. The interior of the small establishment is very well decorated with lots of Thai centric style. The staff here are exceptionally welcoming quick with serving. Upon entering, they do ask you to hand sanitize prior to sitting down. This is really nice because it reduces the spread of Covid. You also have the choice to seat yourself wherever you want to in the establishment, so you can properly space yourself amongst others. Will be back again!

    Very average place. Honestly, I hoped for a better Thai food but it was not. I love Thai food and I also spent a good time on Thailand, so I am pretty familiar with a cuisine. I was excited to finally try Thai food in Tampa but I wasn't too happy. Food was very average, nothing special or good. I had so many much better Thai dishes. They didn't have many traditional dishes that most restaurants usually have, like papaya salad or pad see ew. I had pad Thai and wasn't impressed. It also closes very early. I don't think I will be back.

    Tom yum tofu soup and green curry (with vegetables and tofu). Panang curry (with vegetables and tofu) and fried wontons.

    I ordered the Tom Yum Tofu soup and Green curry (with vegetables and tofu). Both were delicious. My husband ordered the Panang curry (with vegetables and tofu) and fried wontons (sweet potato and chicken). The orange slices were a nice touch. We both enjoyed our food, but I liked my husband's Panang curry slightly more than my green curry. The staff were friendly. I came on a Friday night and there were only 2-3 other tables taken then.

    Red Curry -Chicken ($16)
    James I.

    Pros: One of the more well decorated Thai restaurants in New Tampa. Great place for a date. The waiters(and one of the managers) were very good on checking on you. I ordered Red Curry and the amount of curry was good. Cons: They didn't have the heat on on one of the colder nights in Tampa. The amount of rice is a lot less than the amount of curry. At other Thai restaurants, I usually combine the rice with curry and have like 15-20% of the curry left. This time I had 35-40 percent left. (Extra rice is a $2 charge.) They didnt ask the level of spice for my dish. I found it solid, but would have preferred more heat. While I like some places a hair more, this being 5 minutes away can't beat!

    Pretty atmosphere

    Thai Ruby, When we arrived the place was empty. So I was doubting our date night selection. We were promptly seated and water was served. We looked over the menu and tried to decided. It was great food . ..order mild not medium. If you want something with spicy. Service was great. It began to get crowded as the evening when on. They had several carry outs as well.

    Continues to be a great place for Thai food in New Tampa. Beautifully decorated. Great and friendly staff. And the food! So fresh and tasty. You will get a choice of how mild or spicy you'd like your dish. I had the Amazing chicken. chicken with peanut sauce. mixed steamed vegetables and rice. A great meal. Huge portion size as well. I wanted to take some for my lunch for the next day but I couldn't stop eating and ate it all. They are open Mon - Fri 11:00 AM - 2:30 PM and 4:30 PM - 9:30 PM. Sat: Noon - 2:30 PM and 4:30 PM - 9:30 PM and Sun: 4:00 PM - 9:00 PM.

    Came here for lunch and it was so good I forgot to take a photo of the food. I had panang curry with chicken and my fiancé got black pepper and garlic chicken. Both dishes were great. I got mine spiced mild since I hadn't been in and my experience with Thai cuisine says mild and medium vary by restaurant and I'm glad I did! Even though it was obviously mild it had some notable heat which I enjoyed. My fiancé got the medium and said it was on the spicier side of medium which he really enjoyed. We will definitely be ba

    Oh my I absolutely loved this place!! Unfortunately, I only was able to take out when I passed by but when I came and picked up my order the restaurant was soo beautiful and decorated so nice. Customer service was good and what tops it off more is that the chicken Phad Thai was the best I've ever had and I've tried a decent amount ! Would definitely come back for more when I'm back in the area !

    Wow, what an unexpected surprise!…read more We are here for medical stuff at Moffitt and was looking for a good place to eat. This little place is a gem. The staff is super nice and gives you time to look at the menu and answer questions. The moment we walked in the host was ready with menus and sat us right away. We ordered the crab Rangoons, they are really plump on the inside and crispy on the outside but not chewy nor hard, they were light and delicate. We also ordered the Tom Kha soup with shrimp appetizer and it was delicious. Spouse ordered the pineapple rice with shrimp. It was delicious and so much he couldn't finish it all I ordered #58 Vegetable entree with shrimp. Really good and a good assortment of cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, scallions, broccoli and other stuff I can't think of. I got spice level 3 and it was perfect. Son ordered Green curry with chicken and it was packed with goodness! The eggplant was delicious (he shared with us) The staff was very attentive and checked on us multiple times. As we were leaving all the staff said goodbye and wished us a good evening. The interior is cute and clean. We will definitely visit again.

    I really think these reviews are all fake…read more The restaurant: I walk in here and the floor is full of food scraps and trash. Dirty AF. There's a standup fan blowing in mid of dining room, and blowing at me the entire time I'm in there. There's dirty tables all over the place waiting to be cleared. The food: None of it was terribly good (tasteless panang curry and satay; peanut sauce was more like peanut butter) and all of it was the typically below average Thai food that is ubiquitous in Tampa Bay. I don't understand these five star reviews at all. It's just another Tampa Thai restaurant that is not worth revisiting.

    I had been craving some Thai food today. I can't remember the last time I went to a Thai…read morerestaurant in Florida. What a mistake by me. I'm glad I came a bit after the lunch crowd because parking in this area is always a nightmare with all of the other office space and restaurants right next door. To my surprise it was just me and 1 other guy in the entire restaurant. Now, it was a day after Easter at like 2pm, but still. I like how the bar area is divided between partly being inside and partly being outside. I decided to sit outside and enjoy the weather. It was a perfect 80 degree day. Up first, I had the $10 Spicy Edamame. I thought it was highly average. Not particularly spicy, and not particularly tasty. I wouldn't get this again. Then, I tried a $9 gyoza. Pretty standard as it should be. For the main course though. Wow, oh wow. I love me a great smoke show. The $22 Screaming Chicken Comes out absolutely screaming with smoke, steam, and sizzle. I loved the presentation. Then, they pour the hot sauce ontop of the meal and BOOM more sizzle!!! I asked for extra hot Thai spicy. The bartender laughed at me when I asked if I needed to sign a waiver. I said, ok so good to know it won't actually be spicy. I didn't even sweat eating the screaming chicken. I loved this dish and would absolutely come back for it again. For dessert, I'm a huge sucker for any donuts on a menu so I got the $8 Thai donuts. YES! I love the caramel sauce they are dipped in. I could eat these all day. Solid spot with lots of potential!

    We had an anniversary celebration with 14 people and they accommodated us indoors …read more We got a good service and there was a confusion but they took care of the orders. Food was really good . We had sashimi platter , chicken nuggets , curry puff, egg roll , fried rice with different combinations , Penang curry, pineapple shrimp curry was my first time having fruit and seafood but was a hit, drunken noodles, pad Thai etc They also gave us various sauces which were quite flavorful . Ambience was decent . Have lot of parking .
