" Not impressed with the food overall. I ordered the spring rolls and they were underwhelming in flavor. Service was also quite slow, even for a busy dinner service. I had high hopes but unfortunately left disappointed. The restaurant did have a nice ambiance though. " (*Curated Review*)

" The best Thai food I’ve had outside of Thailand! The flavors were authentic and some of the best I’ve experienced. We shared a variety of dishes, and honestly, everything was delicious. The service was quick, and the server was very helpful with recommendations. I can't wait to return and try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with a smile. I ordered the mango sticky rice, which was divine! The flavors are spot on and remind me of my trips to Thailand. The ambiance was quirky yet charming - perfect for a casual dinner with friends. I’ll be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Generally a good experience, though one dish (the pad Thai) did not meet my expectations as it was too sweet. My main dish was good, however! The service staff were friendly and made sure we were happy. Nice atmosphere for a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" What I liked: the variety of vegan options and fresh ingredients. What I didn’t like: I found my tom yum soup to be bland and lacking in spice. The service was prompt, but I left feeling underwhelmed. I might try a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The coconut cake is truly a game-changer! I grabbed a slice after my meal, and I must say it's the best dessert I've ever had. The staff were incredibly friendly and the atmosphere felt very inviting. I encourage everyone to try this restaurant; you won't regret it for the food or the dessert! " (*Curated Review*)

" Thai Cafe offers a nice mix of traditional Thai dishes. However, I found the Pad Thai a bit too sweet for my taste, which was disappointing. Service was fairly quick, but the place was quite busy, so I had to wait for my drink. I might visit again to try something else, hoping for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)
