" Wow! Tiger Chef is an absolute treasure. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with a warm smile from the staff. We ordered the classic Pad Thai and the Green Curry, and I must say, the flavors were exceptional. The Pad Thai was the right level of sweetness and had generous amounts of shrimp. The portion sizes allowed us to take some home, which was a bonus. Though the decor is a bit modest, the food more than makes up for it. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tiger Chef's food is without a doubt some of the best Thai I've ever tasted. The Tom Yum soup had a strong yet pleasant flavor, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. I was on a lunch break and the service was efficient, which impressed me. I did notice that the inside could be better lit, but that didn't distract from the delicious food. It's a fantastic little escape in Columbia. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience overall was quite pleasant at Tiger Chef. The atmosphere was very relaxed, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I had the crab Rangoon as an appetizer and it was delightful! The main dish was the Thai basil chicken and it did not disappoint at all. The portion sizes were more than enough. It's a nice cozy spot that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have visited Tiger Chef multiple times, and every experience has been enjoyable. However, there was a time when the quality of food seemed to dip a little. My last order of Pad See Ew was slightly bland. The staff was lovely as always, and the place has a cozy feel. I hope they get back to their usual standards because it attracts a crowd. Overall, I still think it's one of the better spots in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend I took my family to Tiger Chef for dinner. We ordered a variety of dishes and everyone seemed to love their food! The taste was authentic, especially the Thai iced tea, which was incredible. I did find that the restaurant could improve on its ambiance; it felt a bit worn out. Despite that, it was a lovely evening, and we all left full and happy. I recommend giving them a try for family outings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved our dinner at Tiger Chef! We ordered the shrimp rolls and the red curry. The rolls were so fresh with a lovely dipping sauce. The red curry had a beautiful flavor profile, and I was surprised at how well the spice was balanced. Really, the food is a great value for what you pay. Service was friendly, and I appreciated the atmosphere was simple yet homey. Will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a decent experience, though I was a bit let down by the Pad Thai. It lacked flavor and seemed a bit on the dry side. However, the chicken satay was fantastic! The service was timely, and the decor gave a casual feel. So, while I may not order the Pad Thai again, I would come back to try other dishes. Even the best places can have bad menu items!
