" Authenticity is at the core of Lemongrass, and it really shows! The dishes are flavorful and not overly sweet like some other Thai places in town. I had the garlic basil chicken with jasmine rice, and every bite was divine. Don’t rush when you come here; the owner puts so much care into her cooking, and it reflects in the food quality. The place feels homey and very inviting. I can't wait to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible dining experience at Lemongrass! The owner, who operates this magical little Thai kitchen, treated us like family. We ordered a variety of dishes for a larger group, and everything was mind-blowingly good. The yellow curry was rich and creamy, paired with perfectly seasoned rice. Definitely call ahead if you're planning to try, as the space fills up quickly! Just be ready to enjoy your food, as good things take time here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the most wonderful experience! I felt immediately welcomed when I walked in. The place has a very warm and intimate vibe, perfect for a comfortable meal. The food arrived hot and bursting with flavor! The Tom Kha soup was rich and paired perfectly with my spicy Pad Thai. A great local find, and I can't recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lemongrass has some of the best Thai food I've ever tasted! I love how every dish is prepared fresh, showing a real respect for the cuisine. I tried the drunken noodles, and they were packed with veggies and spice. The atmosphere is intimate, making it perfect for a cozy meal. The service might slow down a bit when it's busy, but it's well worth the wait if you're craving authentic Thai. " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot is pure bliss! If you love Thai food, you must visit. The ambience is lovely, making you feel right at home, while the sweet owner is busy in the kitchen serving up magnificence. The Pad Thai is the best in Portland. Just remember to call ahead; it's worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a regular at Lemongrass for a few years, and I can honestly say that it gets better every time! The owner always recognizes me, and her warmth makes everyone feel special. The pad see ew is absolutely delicious, and I even appreciate the spicy levels they offer. Make sure to visit this hidden gem if you're in Portland! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was so excited to visit Lemongrass for the first time after hearing about it from coworkers. The food was good, but the service could have been better. I felt neglected at times, as the owner was busy cooking and there seemed to be no additional help. However, the food's authenticity was impeccable. I would definitely consider giving it another try, perhaps during a less busy time. " (*Curated Review*)
