It was nice to eat at Orchid again. With the COVID and traveling, we won’t able to enjoy their food. We are with our good friends and we all said we would eat here again. I would recommend eating here. You won’t be disappointed. If you go during their lunch time up until 2:30pm, you can have a wonderful meal under $13 per person!

Have always loved the thought food here. Their location the food is still delish! Quiet ambiance and mellow atmosphere when you dine in. Was not that busy when we got there for lunch but service was a little slow. They seemed short-handed, and the waitress only returned once to refill water. Our order came within 15 min and all tasted great as always. Prices were reasonable compared to what most places charge now and servings are good sized.

This 1 star review is simply for the service and not for the food as we left before trying it.

Really wonderful Thai food; my friend and I got the veggie pad see ew and the veggie Panang curry. Both were delicious, good flavors and good portions for a lunch. Prices were fair; Thai iced tea was kind of syrupy sweet though, and the iced jasmine tea was quite watery. Will absolutely return for more food~

We enjoyed our lunch here. The pu pu platter was very good as was the fried rice and kai kua chicken. Make sure you order rice if you get curry- it is more of a soup. The chicken stir fry did not have a good balance, not enough chicken.

Bland food and poor service. We paid nearly $60 for dinner for 2 and ended up throwing away most of it. See attached pics of the rice, there was slimey brown chunks in it! It was the wrong type of rice and you don’t get rice with the curry so make sure you add that to your oder. That was the 1st time I’ve ever had to do that. The fresh rolls with chicken were tasteless and rolled terribly (see pic). The beef in my pad Thai (1st time trying with beef) was bland and all the toppings (peanuts and garnish) were at the bottom. They need to learn how to season the food. We also got a curry, there was a thick layer of oil ontop and the potatoes were nearly mush as if they had been simmering in the sauce allllll day. It took 45 minutes to get our food and we were take out…the resturant was only half full so it shouldn’t have taken this long but she did say it would be about a 30 minute wait. I tried to call the place when I got home to talk about the problems but they had just closed so I called the next day. They lady was really rude and refused to even give a partial refund. She just assumed we were tourists (said “sorry to ruin your vacation”) but I live here and will not be suggesting this place to anyone. I even waited to post this review until I spoke with them to give them a chance to fix the problem, too bad because a little kindness would have gone a long way.

We ordered a pick up and the guy who answered the call was super rude. And the food is pathetic. We got a spicy fried rice and the tofu in it was spoiled. Yellow curry was like water and the noodles were dry and bland. Zero stars for this place.

Don’t let the outside of this restaurant fool you! Once you walk into the restaurant, you’ll find a cozy space with authentic decor. The spicy beef salad was fantastic! Cashew chicken was great. My husband had the ground beef basil. He thought the beef was too bland. Service was fast and courteous. Bathroom set up was odd, but clean.

Got like 3 tiny pieces of chicken In our pad Thai, as well as well as 6 TINY pieces of meat. Food had no taste but just pepper. Adding a small bowl of red curry and the total is $45!!! Biggest disappointment in Thai industry. Asked for a refund because I literally couldn’t eat anything and got a good big NO.
