" Café Equator recently surprised me in the best way! I stumbled upon this gem while searching for a new Thai place. The ambiance is cozy but a bit snug, so be prepared for close quarters. What stood out was their Homemade Roti appetizer, paired with the best red curry sauce I've ever tasted. My main dish, the basil fried rice, was equally delightful. I’m not a fan of spicy food, but I managed just fine! The staff were friendly through my entire visit. I can see myself coming back soon to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience here. The food was decent but not quite what I expected. I ordered the Pad Thai and found it a bit bland. The atmosphere was nice, and they did have a great selection of vegetarian options. Service was okay; nothing remarkable stood out. Overall, I'd consider giving it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an okay experience. I tried the drunken noodles topping it off with a side of fresh spring rolls. While the noodles were decent, the rolls lacked flavor. The service was fine, but I left feeling somewhat underwhelmed. I might visit again to try a different dish. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Equator has been my go-to place for Thai food lately. The highlight of my visits has been their Pad Thai, which is consistently flavorful. Even though the place can get crowded, the service is generally quick. I sometimes order the red curry, which is spicy enough to satisfy my cravings. I also appreciate the variety on their vegetarian menu. However, I wish their dessert options were more extensive. Overall, a solid choice for a casual meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing many great things about Café Equator, I finally decided to give it a go. I ordered the Drunken Noodles, and while the dish was decent, I expected more spice. My friend had the Panang curry, which she thoroughly enjoyed and said it was deliciously authentic. The service we received was good, though it felt a bit rushed. I appreciate the casual dining environment, but I wish I had tried more dishes since I am returning for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" I truly enjoyed my meal here. The Thai iced tea was refreshing, and I loved the basil fried rice! The service staff were accommodating and friendly, and the atmosphere felt homey without being overwhelming, making it a great dining spot for a casual day out. " (*Curated Review*)
