GINGER THAI KITCHEN REVIEWS

First time there, went for lunch service on a Wednesday. Restaurant was incredible clean. Staff were friendly & attentive. The food, delicious, we had spicy level medium for all of our dishes (Pad thai, Pad See Ew, Panang curry) and it was perfect. Spicy enough where you can still taste the food and get a good kick. We’ll definitely return! Thank you Ginger Thai Kitchen! Keep doing what you do.

First the ambience was very nice for dinner. Our server was attentive and very nice. Now food is great! We went for a shrimp pad Thai that was delicious. We also had chicken sauté and yellow curry one of my favorites, flavors were great! I highly recommend it.

Very clean and cozy ambience. Excellent food and service. Must try Thai Fried rice and chocolate lava cake.

KHAO SAN THAI KITCHEN REVIEWS

A solid place for Thai food. We ordered fried chicken and som tam and they taste great. Generous portion of fried chicken too! The sticky rice is piping hot out of the steamer! Beyond the food, the restaurant owners are very friendly. I wish they could have a bigger place to dine-in. Definitely will come back to support this wonderful place again.

The food is very good, I had the garlic pepper chicken with sticky rice. It has been a year since I have been here. Such a treat! The curry menu is delicious also. The staff is first class, friendly and helped me with questions, and recommendations.

Amazing food, wonderful service the pinapple fried rice is my favorite dish to get. Always reliably delicious.

TASTE OF THAI FUSION REVIEWS

I want to commend both the Chef and the Service for an excellent dining experience. The Caribbean and Basil beef dish was especially well-prepared and flavorful. Mauricio provided outstanding service—he was attentive and respectful, and he demonstrated a strong work ethic throughout the visit. He ensured that all customers were well taken care of and delivered a consistently high level of service. Thank you for such a positive experience. I will gladly recommend this establishment and look forward to returning soon.

Best experience ever for my first time trying Thai food! The spicy cauliflower and the orange chicken were sooooo good. The Thai tea and the watermelon agua fresca were also really delicious and very fresh. The food and service was very high in quality and I would definitely come again and reccomend to friends and family. 10/10 experience.

This place is so good! The Caribbean Chicken is now one of my favorite meals from anywhere. It's delicious. The Bangkok Chicken was also really good. We ate until we were stuffed and still have enough to take home to eat later. The service is also excellent. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back and telling my family and friends about it.
