" Last night, I had dinner at Thai Station and it was simply fabulous! The ambiance of the old train cars gave the place a unique charm. I ordered the Tom Yum soup and pad see ew, which were both bursting with flavor. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and my meal was served promptly. Overall, a delightful experience, and I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I frequently visit this place for lunch. The vibe is cheerful and relaxed. I usually opt for their lunch specials, which come with a portion of soup, and it's usually a great deal! However, I've noticed that the spice levels tend to be toned down, which isn't exactly what I’m looking for in authentic Thai food. Nonetheless, it's a solid spot for a quick and filling meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit, and I have to say it has a fantastic atmosphere! However, the food disappointed me; the pad thai was really basic and did not have that authentic taste I crave. The service was fine, but nothing outstanding. Perhaps I just ordered the wrong thing. I might consider giving it another chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere is what drew me to Thai Station, and I was not disappointed. Dining inside the train was quite fun! However, my food didn’t meet my expectations. The curry I ordered was too mild for a Thai dish, and the portions felt a bit small. Service was friendly, but I left wanting a little more flavor. I might give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve enjoyed each visit to Thai Station! The interior is so charming, particularly the train cars. The food has been consistently flavorful—my favorite happens to be their dumplings, which I can't recommend enough. The service is prompt and friendly, and the price point is very reasonable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for good Thai food in a delightful setting! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great experience overall! I’ve been there several times, and I’ve consistently enjoyed my meals. The staff is super polite. The food, though Americanized, has its charm and offers a nice range of choices for those who might be hesitant about traditional Thai fare. I ordered the pad see ew and was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion. Definitely recommend trying out their lunch specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" Super lovely place for dinner! The ambience is cozy and unique since you're sitting in a train car. I had the Massaman curry, and it was fantastic! My partner enjoyed the pad thai. The only downside was the wait for food was longer than expected, but the friendly staff did a great job serving us! Will definitely visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)
