Horrible place designed to scam students. Ordered Szechuan Pork with Pad Thai plate. There is nothing "Thai" about the Pad Thai, not the noodles, not the seasoning, maybe the server shares a slight resemblance. Some pork are overcooked and mushy while other are tough. Undercooked bok choy. Worst of all, terrible value. I spent 12$ and doesn't feel half-full after finishing everything. The homemade chill oil is good, but it cannot save you from a one-star.
i ordered a yellow tofu curry bowl close to closing time and i got food poisoning from the egg i added. i have seen other reviews talking about how you guys do not discard food that’s been sitting there since opening.. this is a real issue. food doesn’t stay good if it is sitting out in room temp all day. i was up all night and had class the next day. never coming back. just take your chances and don’t go here at least not during closing time.
Food looks great, but it's never open when I'm here. The hours on google are wrong.
For the 2nd time now, my friend and I got food poisoning after eating here near their closing time. They need to discard the food if it's been sitting there all day instead of selling it to students and making us sick. The first time we thought it was a coincidence and let it go. But this was the second time and we could tell right away from how dry/old the chicken and rice tasted that we might in trouble. Within hours after eating, we both got gastroenteritis. This is not ok.
Easily the best place to eat on campus. It's all about the lemongrass chicken and the peanut sauce. That's what made them a hit at the farmer's market and it's what they do best.
I always get the wrap with chicken. Plate is also good but I prefer the tortilla to the rice. I wouldn't recommend the Pad Thai. The Thai tea is great. I don't bother with the other menu options, which seem to generate the most complaints.
Been eating here for years. I enjoy it every time. Consistent quality, and it never gets old.
Big thumbs up solely for the grilled chicken with peanut sauce and the Thai tea.
Pad Thai noodles: bad, couldn’t eat and threw away.
Grilled tofu: good, would get again.
Bok choy: good-ish.
Maybe next time would ask for just a bowl of bok choy and tofu.
Idk who's rating this so highly but it is a marginally healthier, more expensive, and much worse tasting neighbor to the panda express right across from it. everything is lukewarm served from heated trays. Eating here gave me the ick. Don't do it, there are much better options in price center.
Childhood memories!!! The lemongrass chicken with the peanut sauce is one of my favorite food in the world. I can literally drink the sauce. This place went from a busy shop at the Tuesday farmers market on Library Walk to a store in Price Center. Great job!!!

The best tofu I have ever tried, the peanut sauce is awesome
Lemon Grass no longer occupies that location. Please update.
Wayyyyy too much salt
Lemongrass I love you. I love extra curry sauce

Hate to say this, but I would’ve rather gone to Panda right next door.
This “food” was barely eatable.

Simple and healthy! I very much enjoyed it.
bomb
Noodles are horrible and their porks are too salty

One of my favorite takeout restaurants, but location can be challenging (parking) and hours are spotty because it’s on campus.
Amazing food, but I wish I could count on them being open when they’re supposed to be.
Decent food
Always out of tofu, brown rice, and their drinks
Terrible customer service except the asian lady. The woman, a bit young, is like she doesn’t want to talk to me with impatient face. Doesn’t listen carefully either. The worst ever. 12:50 pm march 2, 2021
👍
Fast service, generous portions, friendly staff.
Barely edible

Pad thai was more like top ramen with half an egg. Plain with no flavor or nutrients.
Terrrible experience. Very rude staff. Terrible portioning. They give you about 1 tsp of peanut sauce with your order and charge for every extra tsp.
Their tofu sandwich is filling and quite tasty, especially for Asians craving spicy food! Fast service as well. The staff were very helpful, however the owner/supervisor was not.

Great simple food with very good Thai tea and peanut sauce. Extremely quick service and friendly staff.
Had a salmon wrap with peanut sauce. Nice big serving and fresh ingredients. I was satisfied !!!
Pricy
The peanut sauce is my absolute favorite. Always a nice change of scenery for the tongue that is outside the dining plan.
