Diner Review №1

I got some fried rice and some dumplings and it took a little bit, I started to wonder what was taking so long as my buzzer rang, I was given my food with a smile and upon smelling it I genuinely thought I was given the wrong order because it was so wonderfully fragrant. I opened it up to check and took a bite of probably the best fried rice I've ever had. I understood immediately that the reason it took longer than I'm used to is the fact that this is like nowhere else I had ever been. These chefs put their whole heart in their meals and you can tell! From the garlic to the chili's everything tastes amazing to make the perfect dish. The dumplings were crispy outside but soft and juicy inside. Squirting with juice when you bite in. Immaculate. This is The best Thai place!

I was quite impressed with this little restaurant. Ordered mixed veggies with chicken. Lots of variety with veggies and all fresh (not frozen). And good proportions of everything. Spice was a little mild but very good. Would visit again

I know what you're thinking. "Huts are for coffee and pizza" not this hut. This is a Thai hut, and it's food is somehow really amazing.

Did not enjoy the pad thai, tried my wifes pad mama and loved it. the pad thai was fresh, and hot, but the flavoring was not to my liking. The pad mama was very tasty.

Diner Review №12

Honestly my favorite place to get Thai! Prices for the entrees are unmatched. Best place to go to price to portion ratio plus my hubby just loves the flavors. They are generous with the spice 🔥

Diner Review №13

Food was amazing and was very quick to get our order.

Diner Review №14

It's cheap, fast, AND tastes amazing. What more can you ask for?

Diner Review №15

One of the worst pad Thai I have ever had. Flavor was mediocre. Some of the chicken had gone off, and there were no veggies (no green onions even.) after the second chunk of bad chicken that I had to spit out..... I was done.
The portion was large and I would give them another chance , with reservations.

Visiting Fairbanks, I'd never heard of exclusively drive-thru Thai before, so we wanted to give it a try. Let me say, it was delicious! My wife ordered phad see-ew and I ordered phad kaprao, both very good! As good as anything we've found in any major city or in our travels to Thailand! We'd surely come back!

My wife and I order from this place quite often, and they're always prompt and courteous, while making great tasting food.

Diner Review №19

I like one particular dish from there. It has rice and steamed vegetables. It's weird because they don't even offer you soy sauce for the rice. I ask for sweet and sour sauce, and they charge 50 cents for a little container of it. So now I just buy a bottle of my own S & S sauce and save money.

Diner Review №20

Thai orchid is such a great local drive thru. Food comes out fast. Flavors are deep and intricate. It’s honestly amazing that they make the food they do in such a small building! I’ve lived in Fairbanks my whole life (where thai food is a big deal) and consider myself a Thai food expert, and this place is legit.

One of the best Thai you will get in the city! The quantity they share can feed two at times. The owner cooks herself for you and can make to your request. Very pleasant experience.

Diner Review №28

I'm really surprised that this place has a 4.6 star review, this is fifth or sixth Thai restaurant that I have tried here in Fairbanks, and it is hands-down the worst one I've had. Their pad Thai chicken tasted like it came out of a 5 gallon bucket that is served during NTC rotations to soldiers. I understand it's a drive-thru restaurant but I have a hard time allowing that to be an excuse for what I just ate

Diner Review №29

Great Thai food in a convient location.

Diner Review №30

Outstanding tasting food, order was ready when I arrived (called in), friendly service, great value. Just wish they had chicken stay -- somewhat limited menu, but it's a drive thru! Very convenient!

Diner Review №31

I'm currently 8 mo. pregnant and I constantly crave their pad thai and fresh spring rolls. I'm pretty sure I've gained 10 pounds just from eating here haha. My mans about to pick me up an order for tonight after eating there yesterday for my birthday, I have no shame lol.

Diner Review №32

These guys have DELICIOUS pad thai. I get mine with Tofu and it is hot and flavorful every time. I love that it's so close to home and I usually don't have to wait in line. Tofu pad thai is $10 here and the potions are large so its 100% worth it to me. Most of the time I get some and eat half for dinner and the other half for lunch the next day. I would definitely recommend this for anyone looking to grab a bite to eat after a long day at work.

Diner Review №33

Diner Review №36

My gf is pregnant and is obsessed with this place. Her usual order is this spicy chicken pad Thai with extra vegetables and a side of fresh spring rolls. The owners are very nice and the pad Thai is made to order in about 10 mins, we definitely recommend :)

Diner Review №37

Little mild, but very good quality, taste, and value

Diner Review №51

Made to order meals and very tasty here. 15min wait has been the max I've waited. But there are boutiques and pull tabs 1min walking distance to keep you occupied while you wait.

Diner Review №52

Decent for how quick it is

Diner Review №53

Food poisoning central. Never again.

Diner Review №54

This is perfectly mediocre. The egg rolls were badly burnt and the "pad thai" I got barely resembled this amazing thai dish. It had 3 cabbage leaves, questionable purple splotches, no real vegetables, and the sauce was more of a tamarind and vinegar sauce than anything to do with real pad thai sauce. The chicken had 0 seasoning and was fried with oil so it was rubbery and bland. So I got a pound of noodles thay were so gross I threw them away and egg rolls so burnt one small bite had me tossing them too all for $17. The only edible thing was my diet coke. Definitely won't be back
