Casual Thai eatery with polished, contemporary decor serves the classics & some Pan-Asian dishes.
This place is a gem! It was my first time here, and I was truly impressed. Everything was delicious, with authentic flavors. The atmosphere is cozy, which is surprising given how it looks from the outside. The service is very friendly as well. Everyone should come here—definitely a 10/10!
Service was excellent. The Durian Durian sampler was delicious. It was hard to not like anything on that plate, egg rolls, fried coconut shrimp, tulip dumplings, rangoons and pot stickers. Definitely 👍 Husband had the moonlight noodles. Its an off menu special, It’s rice noodles vegetables and choice of protein in a cloud of egg whites. It’s a pretty dish and tasty too. I just loved the presentation the egg whites did look like wisps of clouds. I had the Malaysian Laksa. Once again the presentation it was a generous sized bowl but they had this gorgeous crusted fried egg on top. Laksa is a staple in South East Asian cuisine. This was a very good version of it. Good flavors all around. Both portions of food were generous and rather reasonably priced. Happy hour alcohol 2 for $7 quite the deal, and realize when you get tea it’s a pot and a pretty glass pot at that. The menu here is diverse. Chinese, Indian and Thai and SE Asian dishes were on the menu. I’m already looking forward to going back to try other dishes there.
We have been here a handful of times, and the food is usually hit or miss. We went here again this past weekend, and the food was terrible. We got the summer rolls, Jade dumplings, green curry with tofu, panang curry with combination meat, and chicken lo mein for my daughter. The summer rolls only had two shrimp in them and just tasted like basil. The jade dumplings were so bland, and had no flavor. The green curry was supposed to be Thai hot. It wasn’t hot at all, and just tasted like flavored water. The panang curry was lacking in flavor too, but it was edible. My daughter’s chicken lo mein was probably the best dish. I gave the waiter feedback on the food when I asked for the check. She told me that we should’ve told her right away so that they could remake the dishes, but we honestly didn’t think that they could make them any better so we didn’t see any point in sending them back. The owner did come talk to me and apologize. She offered me a $15 off the next time we visit, but honestly, we won’t be coming back.
Simply the best Thai restaurant in the Lake Nona area. I love coming here and eating quality, delicious food. The atmosphere is inviting and intimate. My favorites are the green curry and panang curry with chicken. The pad thai is cooked to perfection (choice of proteins (chicken, beef, shrimp, or tofu). Everything on the menu is customizable to your heat level. Vegetarian options. All of the dishes are cooked to order. Price is right for the amount of food you get. Vegetables are fresh, and what I've tried and eaten so far are not overly salty or sweet. Last but not least, I highly recommend the fresh mango sticky rice for desert. It's the best way to end an amazing dining experience. I am a frequent customer here, and I highly recommend this place for all your Thai cravings.
Durian Durian is quite an authentic Thai spot and although it is family owned the ambiance of restaurant is more formal than other local Thai spots. However, the food was not a fresh as I would have hoped. I would not recommend the Seafood mix because the calamari and scallops did not seem fresh, ruining the flavor of my entree. The chicken items also did not taste fresh. However we ordered several other items and didn’t face this issue with the shrimp and veggie items. One cool aspect was the pineapple dish actually comes in a full pineapple. Overall the server was attentive.

Loved this place!!! The food was incredible. Service outstanding. Atmosphere is great. Beautiful decor. It was a mom and daughter date and first time trying Thai food and it didn't disappoint. The duck was so crispy and the Mongolian beef flavorful. We enjoyed it so much. We will be back. Our server was fantastic. Outstanding place and reasonably priced.
Amazing Staff and food!

Great food. Can get a bit spicy
red curry tofu is the goat!
They stayed open 15mins after closing for me to pickup take out on...new year's even. Saved my evening, greatly appreciated. Food itself was tasty too!
Sorry seriously worst experience in FL. We arrived with baby and we sat at the table for 20 mins without anyone asked anything. NOT EVEN ANY TAP WATER! And when I ask for can we order now, I got the “suggestion” that their food need at least 30 mins. “ Do not expect our food to be quick” was their own word. Sure. WE LEFT.
Food and service is always a 10/10!!!
Some of the best Thai food we have had in a long time! I also love that they remove the fish sauce to accommodate the vegan/vegetarian ppl and lots of modifiable options for vegetarians. My husband loves how well seasoned the chicken is. It's become a household favorite, we dine in or take out often!
Wow, this is one of the best Thai cusines you will ever try. Ever since opening 5 years ago, me and my family visist every week or two. The atmosphere and music is always on vibe. Waiters are so sweet, the best I've ever seen at any restuarant. The spice levels are so helpful, and you can ask for a spice box to use which comes with different spices and Sriracha to put. Food is always amazing and hot. The owner Ivy is very kind and sweet, honestly, if you live in Orlando I would try it out!
Good service, friendly staff, reasonable prices.
I was so hopeful to find good Thai food in this neck of the Orlando area but this wasn't it :( Honestly, it tasted like jarred sauce, or something. Pad se ew had almost no sauce and mostly tasted like oil. Pad Thai tasted more like a sweet chili or sweet and sour. The peanut sauce that came with the summer rolls was more like peanut paste and was cloyingly sweet. The rolls themselves were all noodles and lettuce/cabbage. The tom yum broth was good but that was the only thing I really enjoyed.
Simply put AMAZING.. The establishment is clean, vibrant and most importantly the server was very knowledgeable about the food and made wonderful recommendations. My meal was to die for, everything was cooked to perfection. A place i will visit frequently. Anybody in the mood for Thai food go to Durian Durian on Narcoossee rd, Orlando. Years later and the food is still amazing. DELICIOUS 😋

I can't say enough good things about this place. The women at the front are always so sweet. I've never had a bad meal there. The prices aren't crazy. My to go orders are always correct. The food is awesome, and my kids love it.
Budget friendly Thai food
Amazing food and amazing service. Special thanks to Sam for being an attentive server and recommending the Massaman Curry, which was leagues above any other curry I have ever had. If i could leave 6 stars I wouldn't hesitate!!
Always good, and the ownership is very welcoming and remember you even when you have not been there in a while.
The food is very good and reasonably priced, the service is both friendly and efficient.
Excellent food, friendly staff, and authentic!
This is the second time I’ve ordered salmon from this restaurant, and both times it gave me a stomach virus. Typically, I enjoy other items from their menu, and they taste great. However, the first time I ordered salmon a few months ago, I experienced severe food poisoning. As a big fan of salmon, I decided to give it another try recently, but I got food poisoning again. I suspect there’s something wrong with their actual salmon. I’m giving two stars because other dishes on their menu are good, but their salmon is terrible. It seems like there’s an issue with the fish they use.
Wonderful experience, Spicy Basil Duck was fantastic.
This Thai restaurant serves authentic, flavorful dishes. The pad thai was excellent, and the spice level was just right. The staff was friendly, and I can’t wait to come back and try more dishes.
Try the crispy duck! You will not regret it!!! 😋
Delicious food and service
I don’t usually leave these reviews… but I’m a huge pad Thai fan, my family went to dine in and asked us if we wanted something… We of course ordered our go to (Pad Thai)….. and I say this as constructive as possible for the owner and its chefs….. guys there is a way to make a Pad Thai and it is most definitely not the way that you guys made it. We paid $24 and my wife and I couldn’t pass two bites. It tasted like the sauce came from a package, and still with zero flavor…. I hope you guys seriously improve your recipes for other future customers…

Great food and service. It's always great to bring the family and have a fantastic meal. The owner is so kind and amazing. Can't wait for next
Great Food and staff. I have been coming here for years and it never disappoints. The kids love it too!
Great ambience and food .
What a hidden Gem. We walked in and were greeted with a huge smile. After being seated the Waitresses was beyond friendly and took the time to explain a lot of items on the menu. What a great all around experience great Food with exceptional Service. Looking forward to coming back tomorrow night. We travel the country for my Son's Tennis and eat out alot. And this is definitely high on our list of places we have been.
Julie.
Love this place. The food and service is always great ❤️
Our favorite Asian restaurant. We return again and again to Durian Durian for deliciousness and wonderful service.
super affordable and big portions, I’m broke and I still ate a LOT of food for cheap
DURIAN DURIAN DESERVES YOUR BUSINESS!!
Been coming here for 5+ years and the food never disappoints. Great place to come for a nice dinner out, or order to go and enjoy at home. On top of that, the service is phenomenal. They care about their customers. Always so excited to see you when you walk through the door. They’re constantly giving me discounts for promotions and celebrations they have going on, without me even having to ask. 10/10 recommend!!
Pad Thai was absolutely delicious. Great portions! I’ll definitely revisit.
Delicious food and service. Friendly staff.
Great restaurant fresh dishes amazing ambience Food was delicious thank you SAM for. your great service .
Great food great service. Sam did service is the best
Good amount of food not at all spicy even when requested. Dishes mostly tasted sweet.
Delicious!
Not only is the food here really good, the staff was so nice. Perfect place for dinner tonight. I don’t love spicy food so I got the Honey Garlic Chicken - so good. My husband does love spice and totally enjoyed his food too!
This is my favorite restaurant in lake nona. Really yummy. The service is great especially the handsome waiter Sam.
Some of the best Massaman Curry I've ever had.
Absolutely horrible. Never ever ever again. Stay away.
Durian Durian is my favorite Thai restaurant in Orlando.
Simply the best Thai restaurant in the Lake Nona area. I love coming here and eating quality, delicious food. The atmosphere is inviting and intimate.

Great food and service!
I love a restaurant that gives great service. I can cook good food at home, but when I go out to dinner I want to receive great service and good food. This place gives both! We had a beef brisket appetizer that comes with Chinese bread and that was delicious! Very flavorful. We both ordered the pineapple fried rice with chicken and shrimp, I ordered mine mild while my husband ordered his Thai hot. The shrimps were made to perfection! I absolutely loved the way they made the rice. And their Thai iced tea is yummy. We will return and look forward to trying other plates.
Being vegetarian, the options for food in Lake Nona are limited but this place is heaven. The flavors, the consistency, the hospitality and overall the prices. If one item you should never miss is the Thai donuts. Many instances when we visited this places only to have donuts - a different league for food lovers.
The food was edible but seemed like it had been severely Americanized. It was definitely missing on the authenticity. For example there were no straw mushrooms in the tom kha gai. Instead they were typical US grocery store white mushrooms. Also no chili flavor or any "heat" at all in the soup. We couldn't taste any heat at all on the the beef salad (they didn't even know what beef waterfall was) and we had asked for medium heat. The pad thai looked like it had been put in a container and stocked up ready to be sent out as ordered much earlier, rather than freshly made. The noodles on top were dry, and the sauce had had plenty of time to go to the bottom of the container. It also tasted more like some kind of sweet and sour flavor rather than an actual pad thai. Looked like a very nice restaurant inside, I ordered take out, but if you want real Thai flavors, this probably isn't the right place.
Definitely will come back! The place is amazing and the atmosphere is beautiful. The waitress was nice and attentive. The food was great.
The only thing I would recommend changing is the pad Thai. The pad Thai was not traditional or original pad Thai but still tasted great!
The pad Thai had too much sauce and the Massaman coconut curry potatoes, carrots, and onions were undercooked. It didn't taste like it was cooked together. It tasted like everything was cooked separately and then placed in the curry and warmed. The Thai spice level is not spicy. The people seemed nice, but the food was not great.
Had a great first visit. Sam was super friendly!
Tasty food, lovely ambience, friendly staff. Liked the quantity and quality of the food. Very affordable and pocket friendly. Iced thai tea was very refreshing, cashew medley was full of crunch. Pad woon sun was prepared without egg on request. Spring roll was delicious and taro fries were a cool snacking option. Roti canai and coconut curry was super yum. Good one!
Excellent meal. Excellent value for what you get. I like to try new things but the green curry keeps calling me back.
Best restaurant of my life. The food is always great when I dine in, and so is the service. My favorite waiter is Tatiana!! Wait, no.. maybe it’s Kay 🧐 It’s hard to choose because they’re all so attentive and nice. Plus, it’s got a great atmosphere and the owner is the nicest woman in town!
great food, been eating there for 10+ years. all of the servers are great and the service and food has never let me down
Been coming for years. I wish I could say that I have tried as much as my family has. Although my cashew shrimp or chicken and the spring rolls will always be my go to. The chicken rice noodle soup was also very helpful when I was under the weather.
Incredible food and service for an amazing price! Hidden gem in Lake Nona!
This place is awesome good food service and the best atmosphere...
This spot is a gem. Always amazing service and food. Ivy is so friendly! If I could rate higher I would.
We had a very large party of 20+ that the birthday girl wanted to try. Called ahead and they were ready for us. This was a new Thia place for all of us (we are mostly from N Orlando) and everyone loved their food. The place is clean and the service was awesome. Would definitely recommend 👌
This was my 5th or 6th visit to this local eatery. It is consistently excellent. The massaman curry is nothing short of fantastic each time we’ve been there. Tonight we had mango sticky rice for dessert and it was excellent.
The ambiance is warm and inviting with the feel of a high end big city restaurant.
The service is incredible friendly and helpful in every way. The only suggestion is to slow the service pace a bit between the time the order is placed and delivered to the table. This would allow guests to savor the ambiance and their beverage before the meal service begins. In my opinion is would eliminate the fast service feeling and enhance the very elegant dining experience here.
Food was too salty and cold. Same sauce on different dishes.
Food quality was poor. We ordered three dishes all tasted same, full of sodiam and hardly warm. We went there for first time. Must say we were very disappointed by food and service.
We try to eat Thai anytime we travel. Actually, we eat Thai often while at home as well. This place was really good.
We lived 2.5 years in Thailand and ordered a variety of dishes. To make it short: we did not like any, do not recommend this place. There are better options in Orlando.
We are from Virginia and found this place on google. I will surely be visiting when in the area. This was one of the best Thai food I have had and Sam who was servicing us was very welcoming and nice. Overall a great experience.
This was our first visit to this restaurant. Food was excellent. The service was exceptional!
Excellent food!
This place is a hit or miss, but tonight my wife decided to give it another try. She orders pineapple curry fried rice. And again, No flavor, most of the rice was white, huge chunks of pineapple. No finesse is the cutting of protthaiand vegetables evenly. Again, flavorless bland dish and the chicken had that reheated flavor. I think we’re done here. This is entry level amateur Thai food.
Was excited to try this place and ended up throwing $30 worth of takeout in the trash.
Pros: Friendly customer service, decent size portions, vegetables cooked perfectly, and medium spice level done well.
Cons: The food was awful. The panang curry tasted like super salty coconut milk. The drunken noodles were so incredibly salty. It’s like they accidentally dropped an entire jar of salt in both dishes, completely ruining it. We also didn’t appreciate the up charges. I’ve lived in several states and multiple urban areas (NYC, DC, Philly, etc) and have never seen an extra $1 charged for chicken or tofu. That should be included in the standard pricing, and it wasn’t.
We won’t be trying this place again.
Very tasty food with incredibly kind and attentive staff. A great neighborhood eatery with reasonable price/quantity ratio.
We come back regularly and always enjoy ourselves.
Excellent! Great food, service & atmosphere. Reasonable prices too!
Loved this place!!! The food was incredible. Service outstanding. Atmosphere is great. Beautiful decor. It was a mom and daughter date and first time trying Thai food and it didn't disappoint. The duck was so crispy and the Mongolian beef flavorful. We enjoyed it so much. We will be back. Our server was fantastic. Outstanding place and reasonably priced.
I was so excited to try this place, as it had incredible reviews, but I’m sad to share that it definitely fell short. The staff was very friendly when I went to pick up, but the chicken pad Thai I ordered was extremely bland and tasted like it was doused in teriyaki sauce. I usually love pad Thai and I had to throw out my leftovers.. it was that rough. I just want there to be more accurate reviews, if this is the best lake Nona has to offer. If you’re looking for an incredible Thai place, Siam Garden in Winter Park is fantastic…unfortunately this place is not even close to that level. I do wish them well, but I think they need to do some revamping.
Delicious and unique food. The owner is also very nice.
Best place ever
Best Thai food in Lake Nona. Great vegetarian 🌱 options. The ice cream is tasty.
The atmosphere was so nice and comfortable. The place smells delicious and the food provided was fresh and delicious! We got curry samosas, spring rolls, pineapple fries rice with chicken, fried fish with curry, and chicken lettuce wraps. Everything was delicious 😋 would completely recommend.
Great place to eat 😃
Was busy at 6:30pm on a Thursday, but they seem to be used to it and everything was running smoothly and without delay we were seated, ordered and the waiter explained some dishes, he was friendly and cheerful. My glass of soda was always promptly refilled without me having to ask (something I use to rate the service quality) We recommend the Durian sampler platter, the pad see-u noodle was very good with seafood as the protein. They are not a chain, so they take pride in their menu items.
Comimos delicioso y el servicio de Kay fue excelente.
El summer roll y su crema de peanuts exquisito, los te, Tom yum, green coconut curry el ginger salmón súper recomendados.
¡Regresaremos!
Pretty big disappointment. We were in the area and saw reviews, and wanted to check this place out. As soon as we got there and got seated, there was a lady vacuuming the entire restaurant while there were still people eating there, which is very unprofessional. We placed our order with the server and she was nice, but the food wasn’t. The spring rolls were cold, like they took them out of the fridge and forgot to reheat them, and the wings were lukewarm, as if they were cooked an hour ago and were just sitting there waiting to go to someone. We got up and offered to pay for the apps but cancelled the mains and left. They didn’t let me pay for the two apps, but definitely not going back.
Food was delicious…
Amazing local Thai/fusion spot. Great service, food and selection for a great deal.
Delicious food that came out relatively quick. And they gave us a percentage of for celebrating the restaurant's anniversary of opening
Good food and must try their Thai chai...great mix of sweetness and flavor.
We love Durian Durian. The food is absolutely fresh and delicious. Prices are very reasonable. The service is always extremely fast and friendly. Their menu has so many delicious items to choose from. We love the Mongolian Beef. Also, they have delicious soups. Excellent appetizer. Chicken satay is amazing. Among the best Thai cuisine in the area!
Best curry pineapple fried rice hands down! Very vegan friendly. They're the best!
Best vegan friendly Thai food near lake Nona or St. Cloud! Love their samosas, curry and spring rolls!
We discovered this restaurant recently and we have been back 3 times in a week!!!! Excellent food, service is wonderful and prices are awesome. We will visit again soon. Highly recommend..
It's one of our favorite local places. Excellent food and service 👌
Always love the food and the friendly service here .
Always wonderful experience coming here! Starting from the hospitable owner, attentive servers, excellent food and presentation and very tasteful ambiance.
I ordered Malaysian curry laksa noodle soup for the first time; definitely recommend.
Happy 12th anniversary and making it a full cycle!
Thank you for everything you bring to the table (literally and figuratively 😍)!!!
The food was incredible and the service went above and beyond. Thank you Haley for being awesome!!
Been going here for years whenever we are in Orlando. Same excellent food and service. A happy place.
Definitely one of if not the best places to get Thai in all of Orlando. The food is always amazing and the staff are wonderful. You will not regret eating here.
This place was soooo good. If I wasn't traveling I'd be eating here once a week
Durian Durian is quite an authentic Thai spot and although it is family owned the ambiance of restaurant is more formal than other local Thai spots.

Ambiance 5/5
Food 3.5/5
Service 4/5
Very friendly staff
A weekly staple!
Vegetable spring rolls, rosti, tofu pad Thai, mango sticky rice, and tofu curry are our typical order! Always dependable for a good meal within a quick time frame!
My husband and I have lived on a that side of town for over 30 years and we’ve been going off and on to this particular restaurant for a while but last night we had such a bad experience I ordered the drunken noodles and it was so salty. I couldn’t even eat it and my husband had garlic chicken and it was terrible. Will not be going back anytime soon
If this is the best option we have available to us in Lake Nona for Thai food, clearly these standards are low. There are better Thai food places out there, including Aloy Thai in Eustis.
This food is mediocre at best, very disappointing.
A hidden gem in Lake Nona, great food and a varied menu that could cater to many different tastes. The teas are amazing, highly recommend the Thai Tea. Our server Sam was very courteous and friendly and gave us a great experience. Will definitely be coming back.
Nice and modern Thai restaurant near the airport. Unfortunately, they don't actually sell any durian!
The food is pretty good. The classic Thai dishes are good here. They will make it spicy if you ask and they also have a spice tray if needed. I got the Khao Soi which was a huge portion. I added duck for an additional charge and it was pretty good, but would have gotten it on the side instead.
place was busy and some tables werent cleared had to wait 15 mins but nice people and the owner is very gracious and always greeting customers
The best Thai food i have had in a while
If you're looking for truly authentic Thai food, it may be worth seeking out a restaurant that is owned and operated by Thai individuals, or one that has a strong reputation for serving authentic Thai dishes. The Thai dishes ordered were crispy duck and papaya salad. We were disappointed in quality taste and ingredient used.
Muy buena la comida !! Y los precios muy económicos
Great food, excellent service!!
Food is good.
DONT NOT BUY GIFTS CARDS FROM HERE. It will reflect as zero balance and unless you have the recipe for proof of the transaction they can't help you, very disappointing.
First of all the food is Great. It can get a little busy during the weekend, so plan ahead. The staff is super friendly, I recommend this place.
very good attention
Order food sat night trough door dash my soup was missing the chicken and the lo main was so dry and hard I couldn’t eat it. I call the restaurant they don’t me they didn’t know what to do which I find very weird and unprofessional. Spend money and delivery money and I feel like I got rob. I ask to speak to the manager they told me they didn’t have no one available I said is fine have them call me Sunday , I never received a call. Worst place to order and super unprofessional and such a waste of money and no resolution to the issue
Ordered takeout for the first time from this Thai Restaurant. Purchased the Durian Sampler and Medium Spice Red Curry with Chicken. The sampler was pretty straightforward; it included two of the following: coconut shrimp, crab rangoons, pot stickers, spring rolls and tulip dumplings with a side of sweet chili sauce. It was overpriced at $15. The red curry’s spice level was good but it lacked a lot of the flavor, it was one of the worst red curries I’ve ever had. It was priced well at about $15. I would of dined in because the dining area was nice but it was really humid inside the restaurant. Overall, I probably won’t order from here again.
Food excellent..service outstanding..beautiful place to eat. Relaxing
Good Thai food at normal American prices.
Great little restaurant. Food was really good and service was outstanding.
I got the honey garlic chicken with brown rice and I got it "Thai Hot", which is the hottest option and it was barley spicy. Everyone at my table was disappointed with the spice level. Maybe it was just a bad day, I don't know, but I was hoping for a seriously spicy experience. We had to ask them to bring a spice rack so we could boost it ourselves. I've heard that it has been better other times, so maybe this was just a not so good time. I'd love to go again and see.
I feel bad writing this because the staff is very nice and the restaurant is inviting. Ordered 6 different items…the food just isn’t good. Bland, not authentic, confused dishes that simply do not work. Prices also don’t match portions. We won’t be coming back, I wish them a lot of luck.
Durian durian has always been one of our favorite places to eat in Lake nona. Excellent Thai food, relaxed atmosphere. A go-to for take out or dine in.
The Malaysian Curry Laksa was flavorful and delicious!
Always awesome tasting food!
Excellent food and outstanding service. You must eat here. My favorite is Red Curry 😋
The food is always tasty and the owner and staff are awesome!
This restaurant is our go-to takeout place during the pandemic. And our go-to dine-in place pre-pandemic.
So I highly recommend you go-to right away!
You won't regret it. You're welcome!
Excellent food and service
Got the red curry, delicious.
Pad Thai was horrible. Ordered medium heat, it was bland yet overdosed in heat. Mouth still burning. The second one was mild, zero flavor, just the taste of oil. That’s it. Maybe two bean sprouts in each. They both went to the trash.
The best
Great food! Even better service! The owner truly cares about her customers. Highly recommend!!
We found this little restaurant tucked away in a plaza, the food was amazing, service and staff were also great. I was surprised to find curry samosas on the menu and it was the best samosas I've ever had.
Friendly, efficient, tasty.
Wow! What a Thai food restaurant. Highly recommended and we would definitely revisit. Amazing food and friendly service. Lots of options for vegetarians. We ordered Cashew Medley and we never such an amazing dish. Sauce was thick and flavorful. Red curry was not watery and perfectly spiced. Laksa soup with noodle was very flavorful. All dishes have perfect quantity.
Came here for dinner looking to try something new and it was hit and miss. The Thai Iced Tea and Tom Yum Soup were good and would try again. The Lily Dumplings were unfortunately bland and the Pad Thai was overly sweet(ordered the mild version).
Wonderful food! Friendly service. Great lunches.
Having been gone for several months, this still has wonderful food, and friendly service!!
So so Thai food, mostly below average. Only thing that tastes great is their pumpkin or sweet potatoe samosas. That’s it.
Fantastic food. One of the Gems of Lake Nona!
Ate at Durian a few times with different dishes each time. There is NOT a single leaf of Thai basil in any of the dishes. The dishes tasted more like Chinese cooking than Thai.
The food was very good. The atmosphere was nice and relaxing, not too loud like a lot of other restaurants. We enjoyed a slow meal and weren't rushed through it.
Food was amazing! Sam Kapashinsky was a great worker!
I did not know this restaurant existed in the area and was pleased to give it a try. The owner at the front desk was so pleasant and patient while I made up my mind. The food was ready quickly and it was very fresh and flavorful. I can't wait until we go back to eat in. The menu has a wide range of great looking dishes and the price was great!
Not bad. Could be better for a lake Nona Thai spot...Thai Thani on Idrive is the best spot hands down...Sorry.
Excellent food, good price, friendly, FRIENDLY service! Everything is superb!
Love that Malaysian Curry Laksa!
Awesome food and wonderful staff. Very spacious and has a peaceful atmosphere.
