" I recently tried Karen Thai & Sushi after hearing how highly recommended it was. We ordered a variety of dishes, and I have to say, some were fantastic while others were just okay. The Green Papaya Salad was a highlight, fresh and packed with flavor. However, the drunken noodles could have had more seasoning. The atmosphere was six perfections: calm, colorful, and clean. Overall, a nice place worth trying, but I might mix my orders up next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon this little gem while searching for a new sushi place, and I was not disappointed! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and I loved the unique variety they offered, including some fusion options. The ambiance is cozy, making it perfect for a casual dinner or a date night. The staff were friendly and attentive, always checking in to ensure I was satisfied. I highly recommend the spicy tuna roll—it had just the right kick! Overall, a fantastic experience, and I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for great sushi and Thai food, look no further! I had the best experience at Karen Thai & Sushi. From their amazing tempura rolls to flavorful curries, everything was delightful. The staff here are attentive, and the owner often checks on the tables to ensure everyone is enjoying their meals. It has a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for both families and couples. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough—delicious food that hits the spot every single time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience this time around. I really loved this restaurant last month, but tonight my order was wrong and the spring rolls tasted stale. The service was decent but couldn't make up for the food quality. I hope this was just an off night for them since I've had great meals in the past. I know all restaurants can have their bad days, and I'm willing to give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations, but it didn’t quite meet them. The flavors in the dishes were good, but they didn’t stand out uniquely. The only dish I particularly enjoyed was the Green Curry, while the sushi lacked flavor; it resembled what I’d find at a fast-casual restaurant. The service was decent, but I felt the staff could have been more proactive in checking on us. The ambiance was cozy, and the restaurant was clean, so it had its positives. I may consider coming back to try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" A charming spot for a casual meal! I visited Karen Thai & Sushi recently and was really impressed by their bento boxes—great portion sizes and variety! The sushi was also fresh, and I loved the taste. I found the prices very reasonable for the quality of food served. The staff was friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. I enjoyed the cozy setting, making it feel like a hidden gem! I can’t wait to come back and try more off the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try this place based on the reviews, but I’m a bit conflicted. The food had some authentic flavors, but the execution was inconsistent. My yellow curry was lovely, but the sushi I ordered was just average. It didn’t have the freshness I was hoping for. I have to commend the staff, though; they were welcoming and attentive throughout the meal. The atmosphere was cozy and vibrant, perfect for gatherings. Overall, I believe this place has the potential, and I’d be open to giving it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
