Got four lunches and some apps to go – everything was fresh and delicious even after a 35 min ride in containers. Fast service, very nice and included extra sauce. Great food!

Food was quite good, and came out fast. And although they made accommodations for GF, it was simply to exclude the tofu, as opposed to pan fried, like other we have experienced. Still very good and the outdoor seating is charming.

Most go if passing through or resident local!! I have been going to the Royal Orchid for over 12 years. Ever since I was teen, this has got to still be my absolute favorite Thia food. I their tofu is cooked to perfection every time, when I find myself home I always make sure to come here. The pad-kee-mao is my go to dish!! If you like spice make sure to tell them you like spicy. They tend to go light on spicy level due to just because most Vermonters don’t eat very much spicy food.

Quiet cute place with fast service and tasty dishes! I had hot ginger tea, crab rangoon, tom kha, and Kaeng Ped Pet Yang! All delicious and very filling.

I usually just get the Pad Thai and various appetizers, but it is the best Pad Thai in town! There was one time where they added shrimp when I ordered chicken, hence the 4 stars. If you ask for added spice, be prepared for a spicy dish! I enjoy it sometimes but even without there is still plenty of flavor.

I’ve been coming here for years. Some of the best pad thai ever. But they are going downhill. I ordered my usual, Pad Thai and Chicken Satae (chicken skewers). The chicken on the skewers was about half the usual amount, some of them only 2 inches long when they should be 4 to 5 inches. And there were only a few pieces of meat in my Pad Thai. I’m horribly disappointed at the blatant lack of protein in my meal that I had paid for. When I called and asked what was up with the lack of protein, I got an excuse saying “sometimes it comes out differently.” This is unacceptable for a business that has been the only good Thai food in Montpelier for so long. It’s my hope that the business owners take this review seriously and talk to the cooks and make sure they stop skimping on the protein, or they will be losing customers.
