First time ordering and my daughter loved her chicken satay, I had a bite and had to agree it was delicious and tender! My husbands general tso chicken, very good - the fry on it was nice and light. The fried tofu app was also very nice and light with a great panko crust. yum! I have to say, the pad see ew was not good...there was some sauce on it that was unlike any pad see ew sauce I have ever had and any time I try a new Thai place, I always go for this dish and this was a miss. The sauce was very thin with no flavor. For a spice level of 2, it was way hot, even my husband who loves high heat thought it had to be more than a 2.

Very polite service on the phone. (Ordered delivery) all the food was good but my wife didn't care for the fried rice with no egg.

This spot is fantastic! Good prices, large dishes and the staff members are always super friendly.

Yesterday was the first time we came to that excellent restaurant. But It is definitely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the efficient service, with the fine dishes and booze and with the decent payment. We will absolutely come back soon.

We love the sushi and food at Payathai! Service is always great. Lovely owners! Our favorite “go-to” place when we want to go out or pick up takeout.

Came here with a party of 4 on Valentines Day. It was later in the evening and it wasn’t super busy. Our waiter was awesome!! He was so patient with us and fun. Fair warning, the specialty sushi rolls and portions are HUGE! But everything is so delicious! We had an amazing time and would definitely return again and again.

I regularly stop purchasing some food in this place. I enjoy the quick service and well cooked dishes. 5 stars from me.

Went with a meetup group on a Saturday night. Delicious and plentiful noodle dishes Some had Pad Thai I had Drunken Noodles with beef. All delicious. Sushi rolls were the largest I ever saw and everyone liked their food. Only problem and unfortunately a big one. Lack of coordination. Three of 12 ordered sushi. Noodle dishes came out all together in reasonable time, however, the 3 sushi orders were served 35 mins later. Those I of us with food felt uncomfortable eating and tried to wait only for our food to get cold. Only one waitress, taking phone orders while sushi was sitting on counter. Would have given 5 stars for food alone.

Yesssss. First let's applaud the great service. I love their massaman curry as there is a great balance between the sweet, curry spices, salt, vegetables (potatoes and onions), peanuts and chicken. Unfortunately it doesn't come as a lunch size special but there can be enough to snack on later if ypu manage to stop eating when full. Lol. I also love a good fried chicken cutlet and their chicken katsu definitely satisfies. I did come once and order the chicken katsu lunch special on top of the massaman entree and ate it all (to the shock of my server). He didn't know I was pregnant but I must say it's a testament on how good both are. I recently moved away or else I'd be a regular and have more to review. Miss this place already!

I stopped in last Friday evening around 6:30 p.m., the place was about half full so my wife and I were seated. The person that seated us said a waiter would be right over... 10 minutes later the same person came back to our table and took our dink order... 10 minutes later our waters arrived, but not the drinks we ordered. When the waiter dropped the waters he said I'll be right back for your order. Maybe five minutes later he walks over to out table and says our drinks will be right out, we say ok, we're ready to order. Then this waiter looks at us and says OK, and then turns and walks to the table next to us and starts taking their order! With that it was time to leave. This place my have decent food, but I'll never know. All I can say is that if you go to this place be ready for a long wait.... Better yet, just go to one of the other restaurants in this strip mall.

Excellent place. Live down the street. Great staff, and even better food. We had the shrimp dumplings, which despite their size are delicious, and the wonton/eggdrop soup. Absolutely fabulous. They have great fried rice and spectacular peanut chicken. Overall, 10/5

This restaurant was pretty empty for a Saturday night. Only one other party of 2 came in during our entire meal. They did however, have a good amount of to go orders coming and going. The Thai food made by Chef Noi is excellent, but it is from my understanding she is not always in as she goes back and forth between their other location. I really enjoyed the papaya salad and the yum woon sen. Probably the most flavorful papaya salad I have tasted in South Florida. The staff is super friendly and nice, but the service is somewhat slow. The sushi is okay but it would not be the place I would go if I was having a sushi craving. I prefer raw fish and there was not a good selection, just the usual. They have a lot of rolls but no sashimi options other than a la carte. I went with a group and someone ordered the calamari: do not order this. It was the only thing we ordered that we did not enjoy. The batter and color were off. The ramen broth was pretty good (better than a lot of local places) but a little too sweet for my taste. I will definitely be back for the Thai food.

The actual meal was great but unfortunately a review cannot be rated solely on they quality of the food. The restaurant is severely under staffed. Just to get a salad took 45 minutes. To get our meal took an 1.5 hours. Completely unacceptable especially since we had kids. Another issues is that several meals that were on the menu were unavailable. It made us this this restaurant is having a cash flow issue.

Excellent Thai finally in the area. Always just ordered to go. They have never messed up the order.
