    Pad Thai

    This place has decent food however, when I went there for lunch, I paid $18 for a small serving of pad Thai and then they had the audacity to try and charge me $.75 for a little bit of chili paste to put on my lunch way overpriced crappy customer service and when I complained the the yuppie snowflake got all frazzled and told me that she hoped I had a better day and that I didn't need to yell at her... I never even raised my voice- what a joke all I said was I would never come back if they were gonna charge me for a small spoonful of hot sauce

    Spacious seating (just before the dinner rush)

    Located outside the immediate downtown of Placerville, but not too far, Thai Unique is worth the drive over. It's got its own parking lot and spacious seating. When I visited on Fathers Day, i arrived just as they opened for their dinner menu (which starts at 4.) 3 other parties arrived shortly after and another 5 or 6 takeout orders were being picked up. My point being, this place is popular with locals! Nice decor and ambiance made it a pleasant experience and the food was excellent. I ordered the tofu and veggie ginger and a side of rice. My boyfriend got their pineapple fried rice. Portions were generous. It was on the pricey side for dinner, so a definite splurge but they do have lunch specials until 3. Make note they do close between 3-4 if you plan a visit, Overall, a solid choice in Placerville and while I don't come to this area often, I'd opt to dine here again.

    The food is pretty good, I order Pad Thai with Tofu and Vegetables spicy! Serving size is average or a tad small compared to other restaurants I've been to. Staff is nice and the atmosphere is welcoming.

    The place is clean. The service is good. What we had was mediocre at best and a little overpriced. Not much more to say.

    1 Star! Disappointing Service and Food. First time eating at Thai Noodle Express last Sunday…read more(4/12/26), and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. We were a group of 11, and I had to say our experience was very similar to another reviewer here, (Elite Marlane R.) The guy punk white dude taking our order was also the one bringing out the food, and his attitude was honestly shocking. When we politely asked if we could switch coffee to Coke, he immediately said no in a loud, irritated tone, saying Coke costs more than coffee. For us, the price difference wasn't even an issue, it was the way he spoke to us that felt disrespectful. At one point, I was just looking toward the door, and he suddenly asked me, "What are you looking at?" in a loud voice, as if I was staring at him. It was uncomfortable and unnecessary, especially since it drew attention from everyone around. Despite the poor service, we still made the effort to clean up after ourselves, busing our plates and making sure the table was neat before leaving. To the owner of Thai Noodle Express, I hope you can train your staff on how to properly treat customers. Good service goes a long way. On top of everything, the Pad Thai did not taste authentic. Very disappointing overall. I wouldn't recommend this place based on our experience.

    Takes reservations

    Yay! Our new favorite lunch place on Main Street!…read more We just stopped by last weekend, we've been wanting to try this place out but it just hadn't happened.... Last Monday we decided to have lunch there, one of our regular places is closed Mondays and this place was open so we checked it out...and we're SO SO glad we did! Atmosphere was nice and server was very friendly from the moment we walked in. First thing I noticed; $5 mimosas!! I asked if they did anything other than orange juice and yes, they had several other options so I had the cranberry version. Delicious! I went with their mac and cheese, my partner got the basic hamburger. Mac and Cheese -- definitely very bacon forward, much more than I prefer. That being said, I still liked it, it also had sour cream and green onion on top. Bacon lovers will LOOOVE this version, there is LOTS of it and every bite you can taste it. Normally I prefer my mac & cheese with no bacon or just a bit here and there, I prefer to taste more of the cheeses.....again, it still tasted good, its a good serving and I ate half and had enough to save for the next day at work. Creamy and well made, again I just prefer to taste more cheese than bacon. I wouldn't order this again but like I said, a bacon lover will LOVE this version. Now, my partner's burger was Incredible. We are PICKY with our burgers, and we both thought this one was fantastic. Big, and great ratio to the bun. He ordered it medium and asked for "a little char" and they made it perfectly. I took a bite and yeah, I'd order that for sure. The fries were great, too. Overall we were super happy with our lunch, I thought it was priced fairly as well. We will definitely be back!!

    I'll give 2* because the food (when it came) was great…read more We've been to Franny's a couple times before and had O.K. service and good food. The pitfalls of the restaurant seem to be entirely the service. Most recently we went to Franny's on Mother's Day. We had reservations and walked in, on time. We were initially sat in a nice booth in the front of the restaurant. It was my wife and I plus our 2 kids, the table size seemed appropriate. After being sat, we sat without talking to a server for 10+ minutes, not even getting waters. Eventually, when someone did come, it was a waitress/hostess telling us that there had been a mix up, and we needed to move. We weren't excited on the idea, as we were happy where we were, but we moved to the back of the restaurant. This time we sat for 15 minutes without being acknowledged by any wait staff. At this point it is 9:25 and we've been seated for 25 minutes without even water. Finally a waitress comes, and takes our drink order, and our food order as we'd definitely had ample time to look over the menu. About 9:50 the food arrives. My wife and kids' food comes and is great. My food comes and looks off, and the waitress tells me that the kitchen accidentally made me a "veggie" scramble instead of the chorizo that I had ordered, but that she'd get me some bacon and all was well. I asked what was in the veggie scramble and was told it has mushrooms, which is a hard pass for me. She told me she could have what I had actually ordered made but it would "take a long time". I said O.K. - what else was I going to do? Finally it comes, and my wife is done eating, and the kids are close, so, I asked for it to be "boxed up". The waitress rolled her eyes and set to the task. I'm not a restaurant snob - but I really expected an apology or something to be "comp'd" due to the rough experience, but nope, full bill and no apology. Regrettably, despite Franny's being a local joint and having good food, we won't be back.

Besides being a great bar it also caters to families. The server here was excellent. She was genuinely very friendly, had great suggestions, and checked in on us just the right amount of times through the dinner. My wife and I shared a few dishes. The nachos here were different, but really fun and flavorful. They use kettle chips and put a kitchen sink of toppings on it. It's creamy, spicy, and the meat on it is very tender. My wife loved the Berry salad, and I also enjoyed the Bahn Mi Tacos. The Bahn Mi tacos had a Korean style pork on them that was very tender and juicy. The slaw on the side added a good crunch.

They also have cards on the table so I got to play some games with my son while we waited for our food. Our waitress was very nice. Her name was Ady I think (hope I got that right).

I really liked the beer mustard. I also got some Sticky Pork Wings. Those were delicious . Came with a side of ranch that was a bit watery but tasted good. My family also enjoyed their dishes. Might have to make this place a regular stop on trips out that way.
