Samantha Erin: Try the Crab Wonton Tacos, Roasted Broccoli, any of the Satays and ICE CREAM! Dont miss happy hour either, super cheap food and delicious drinks everyday from 5-7!!
JJ: Best happy hour!! Try the kim chee fried rice, beef satay, kobe slider, kobe hot dog and pork bao buns!!
Aileen Tse: this place has slowly become one of my favorite places, esp. since i've been here about 3-4 times over the last 6 mos or so. my favorites are: kimchi fried rice, edamame dumplings and kobe beef satay
Meg Donnelly: The beef green curry in a clay pot is amazing. Also the Roti Canai and the Satay chicken.
Shouvick Basak: The roti canai and chicken satay for appetizers never fail. Among the main course try the singapore noodle or thai basil, they are my regulars. Donot forget to taste the lychee juice.

Mary kate Stone: Drunken noodles with Beef, panang curry with beef as well as the satay chicken appetizer!!! This place was some of the best Thai food I've ever had! Nice chill atmosphere as well.
Emily Anastasi: Volcanic hen takes a while to prepare, but is worth the wait. Other must haves include: chicken coconut soup, mango curry, Thai dumplings.
John Anastasi: The spicy seafood soup/drunken noodle with pork is a solid order here.

Brandon Gibson: Chatayee Venus Kapugthong eschews fusion cooking for authentic, homestyle fare. Her expansive Thai restaurant in Midtown Village prepares massaman and panang curries, satay and a full vegan menu.
justin dula: Vegan forward, with a separate menu of vegan options in addition to the regular menu.
John Dixon: Pad Thai & Curry

💋Rebecca: Edamame ravioli is too hyped up. Try the braised short ribs. Delicious. And pad Thai. Zen gria just ok. Kobe beef satay good
James Russell: The Zen-gria is refreshing. Try the Asian Caesar Salad, Crispy Calamari Salad, or Chicken & Ginger dumplings for apps. The Sweet & Crispy Jump Shrimp are delicious w/a side of wasabi mashed potatoes.
Bloomingdale's: A huge gold Buddha beams down as you live it up, modern Mandarin-style, in this dark dramatically lit palace. Contemporary Chinese dishes and the house Zen-gria keep the Asian spirit flying.

Ru Lu: Appetizer suggestions: basil meatball (they fried the basil), veggie satay (soup), and oriental lettus wrap - desert: mango sticky rice. Awesome couple running this place.
Lane Rettig: Sticky rice with mango for dessert is spectacular. Creamy, with a perfect balance of warm and cold, sweet and sour. They do it in a unique way with warm rice.
Adeline A.: Try the Salt And Pepper Shrimp Rolls

Michael Strunk: Best Chinese Pizza (scallion pancake) I've had in Philly!
Rachel Ross: Sesame chicken,beef Szechuan and crab Rangoon’s were all solid for the price point! Food came super hot on delivery so it’s definitely going to become a go to for us.
sweetblasphemy: I have been eating here since I was in HS & still order from here every time I visit my parents. I love how you can get anything on the menu vegetarianized!
