" I've been coming to Planet Thai for years, and I can confidently say it never disappoints! The food is consistently delicious, especially the Beef Drunken Noodles. The service is always friendly, though sometimes a bit slow when they're busy. The dining area is quaint and inviting. Highly recommend trying their spring rolls! They are crispy and tasty. It's my go-to spot whenever I'm craving Thai! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mediocre experience here. The staff were friendly, but my Pad Thai tasted more like sweet noodles rather than the traditional flavor I was hoping for. The atmosphere could definitely be improved as it felt a bit dull. I will give it another chance and try some other dishes next time because I’ve heard good things about their curries. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing many friends rave about this place, I finally gave it a shot. The Pad Thai didn’t disappoint! However, I found it to be sweeter than I prefer. While the service was friendly, it took quite a while to receive our orders. The ambiance could use a little sprucing up, but as far as tasty Thai food goes, Planet Thai delivers. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I have been going here for years, and while we still love it, we’ve noticed that the food quality can fluctuate. The Pad Thai was quite sweet this time, but the curry was perfect! The atmosphere isn’t fancy, but it’s comfortable enough for a casual dinner with friends. I recommend giving the curries a shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love Planet Thai! It's the best Thai food in Lexington without question. You can't go wrong with their fried rice or curries. The portions are generous and the flavors are vibrant. My only complaint is that sometimes it gets too crowded on weekends, making wait times longer. But the food is worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Planet Thai definitely has potential. I enjoyed the panang curry, which was rich and creamy, but I thought the spice levels were underwhelming. The service was pretty good, but the place could be more inviting in terms of décor. Worth a visit if you're in the area, just don't expect the traditional spice levels! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was disappointed in my recent visit. The Pad Thai had a strange, overly sweet taste and the service was quite slow. The ambiance could use a refresh as well. I've had better meals there before, and I hope they can get back to that standard. I might return to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)
