" I was excited to try Darunee after hearing so many good things, and I have to say, it lived up to the hype! I ordered the spicy pad Thai, and it had that perfect balance of flavors — tangy, slightly sweet, and spicy enough to make my taste buds dance! The only downside was the small dining space, which felt cramped at times. Could use a little more attention to the decor too. Otherwise, it's a place I’ll visit again for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was just okay. I had the yellow curry, which tasted fine but didn't leave much of an impression. The service was average, not too friendly but not rude either. The place had a nice vibe, but I just feel there are better Thai restaurants in the area. I may consider visiting Darunee again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" Darunee Thai Cuisine is solid! The food is genuinely flavorful and quite spicy. I took friends from work here and they were impressed by how authentic the flavors felt. The tom kha soup had the right kick, and the portions satisfied everyone without leaving us too stuffed. The service was prompt, and I absolutely plan to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is really a gem amongst Thai places. I enjoy all the dishes I've tried and was particularly fond of their pad see ew. The staff is friendly, and they really care about your dining experience. The atmosphere might need a little sprucing up, but the food makes it worth it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comforting Thai food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Darunee Thai Cuisine last week and was quite impressed! The food was definitely authentic, bringing me back to my time in Thailand. I loved their tom yum soup; it had the perfect amount of spice and was packed with fresh herbs. The customer service was excellent, but I wish the atmosphere was a little bit more vibrant. It felt a bit too plain for my taste. Still, the flavors are what keep me coming back! I recommend the mango sticky rice for dessert; it's heavenly! " (*Curated Review*)
