“The food was amazing! Stopped here on the suggestion of Brittany at Comfort Inn. It is in downtown Melbourne, FL. It is a very popular restaurant so you may have to wait to be seated.The Chicken Katsu with house sauce was great! The sauce is salty but great when the Chicken Katsu is dipped in it. The Deep Fried Cheesecake with vanilla ice cream is unbelievably good.If you are in the area, you should try it. You will not be disappointed.“
“Fantastic lunch specials! I thoroughly enjoyed my Panang Curry dish with chicken and lots of vegetables! The restaurant is small, quaint and has been here for a long, long time. Included with the lunch special is a cup of their soup of the day, and a spring roll. All of this for $9.95 plus tax!Vegetarian options: So many ways to combine vegetables with sauces, and Rice or Noodles.“
“I have only been here twice the second time for my birthday dinner but actually a couple of days before my birthday, My wife and I remembered how much we liked everything about Siam Orchid when we were there so I decided that's what I wanted for my birthday dinner. Anyway the subject came up and before we left they bought all 4 of us an amazing dessert. The place the people and the food ARE INCREDIBLE!!!! I highly recommend going..... REPEATEDLY!!! The Dunken noodles (just saying) ?“
“The BEST Thai-Viet restaurant in this entire area! Hubby & I get take-out on a regular basis, when craving Asian food. It's the healthiest & tastiest food ever, and the consistency is phenomenal. You will NOT be disappointed, I promise!!!“
“It was my first time eating there. Taken for Lunch by my Sweetie which as Absolutely Great! It was a Very Great Variety to Choose from and the Pork Sandwich I Enjoyed was the Best I've ever Had! My Boyfriend Ordered the Fried Rice and Awesome Soup Bowl. Highly Recommend this Great Place.“
“Jao Thai Kitchen 914 W. New Haven Ave. Melbourne, FL 32901 4.5 Stars (I went again after this review and it was even better) Arg! I stared in disbelief at yet another Thai/Sushi combo place staring up at me from my random name generator. You have got to be kidding me. How many of these hybrid clip joints have sprung up as of late? They are beginning to look a lot like Starbucks...you know, one on every corner. This time, I was headed to Jao Thai Kitchen, located in a minuscule strip mall just east of Dairy Road in Melbourne, FL. My wait staff for this culinary excursion was none other than One. While I have it on good word that One is the loneliest number, I have to admit I appreciate the new identity of using a form or letter of their actual name instead of a random generic “American” name such as Mary or Sue. This is now the 5th Thai restaurant where I encountered this new nomenclature, which is a refreshing and positive change. I asked One for an order of their Jalapeno roll, some Chicken Panang Curry and a Tuna Hand Roll. One returned at a moment’s notice with our order and after snapping a few pics, I grabbed the Jalapeno Roll and commenced tasting. This exciting concoction consisted of tuna, salmon, hamachi, asparagus, cucumber, smelt roe, jalapeno and spicy sauce topped with avocado. Like all stuffed rolls, this one can trace its roots back to the California roll sans the obligatory fake crab center. I prefer this type of roll as I really don’t like paying for fish masquerading as crab. There was just enough kick with the jalapeno and spicy sauce to entertain one’s taste buds. Next up on the Big Boy’s palate was the Chicken Panang Curry. Panang Curry has to be one of my favorite of the Thai curries. It is mild, complex and sweet with a hint of heat. This was perfectly cooked, including the tender pieces of all-white meat chicken and Thai basil, carrots and bell peppers that were fresh and obviously sliced in the back. This brings me to my Sushi join barometer of the Tuna Hand Roll. I found this one to be better than most, but it's still not quite what you would find in a traditional Sushi Ya (shop/restaurant). The tuna was a lovely shade of red and the rice was steamed to perfection. However, I found it to be severely lacking in the traditional additions one usually finds in a Tuna Hand Roll, such as a slice or two of Gobo (Japanese Burdock root/carrot or, more often, plain carrot), watercress sprouts and cucumber. This was fine, just on the simple side. It would have been rather bland on the palate if not for soy sauce. The Big Boy says, “If traditional Japanese Sushi is not your thing, for whatever reason, or you are just hankering for a hunk of raw fish and are nearby, Jao Thai Kitchen can adequately fill that sushi void.”“
“Great little spot for sushi & Thai food! Food was ready soon after calling in to order. Highly recommend the miso soup! My sushi came along with some tempura & a spring roll. It was a nice surprise! The staff are so friendly. I'd definitely come back!“
