The lady who answered the phone is very rude, huffing and puffing because I asked about the different types of rice they serve. Next, the rice I order was terrible. I’m not sure if they soaked the rice in swamp water of what, but the rice was terrible. I heard some good things about this restaurant and thought I’ll try them out. Never again.

Small parking lot; great staff; great food. I have been here twice now.. I am just relocating into the area and this place recommended to me by my realtor.

Extremely rude employees. We waited for several minutes to be sat. The employee simply looked at us and didn't say a single word. We sat at a table for more than 20 minutes while employer's ignored us. We were never even greeted or had the opportunity to order drinks. It wasn't even busy and employees were casually chatting with each other. We walked out without any service.

We dine here often and love it. Just recently they started substituting the fried noodle ball with fried rice for lunch.Please bring the noodle ball back, we hate the rice!

First time picking up food at Equator. Food was simple fare but delicious and fresh. The service was a disaster. Maybe it was just a bad night, but a total disorganized mess. Total time from order to getting food was 1,5 hours. A sorry for the wait would have been nice.

Best! Thai food. It has been the same great staff for years now. Very reasonable priced lunch special.

Incredible Thai food. We started with the chicken satay and the spicy beef paratha. Both were amazing. I'm dreaming of the paratha dish now. My hubby had the red curry with chicken, my friend got chicken pad Thai, his wife had the drunken noodles with chicken, and I had the spicy basil fried rice with chicken. The only downside of this visit is that we were all eating, family style, and one of the friends does not like seafood. Boo. Hiss. We still love him. Every dish was phenomenal. Service was great. It was uncomfortable sitting so close to the door with the cold weather but the food made it worth it. The restaurant is beautiful with the half bench, half chair seating. It's small so be prepared for a wait, but stick it out. Some of the best Thai food we have ever had.

The meal I had at Cafe Equator might be one of the best meals I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The blanket shrimp was to die for. One of my family members who doesn’t like bone-in chicken ate one of the grilled chicken wings and only had good things to say about it. The shrimp rolls are tasty, as well. My entree of veggie equator fried rice w/ tofu was so flavorful and the portion was so huge that I had leftovers! The lemonade was another great choice.So happy I had the chance to stop by Cafe Equator.

Personally, I didn’t like what I ordered and for me and one other person it was right at $100 after a tip. I barely ate half of my food and other people we were with also didn’t really like their food. Some did though so they enjoyed it.

The food was pretty good.I had the Thai rice with pineapple and chicken. Would definitely order again.Parking: Parking was an issue. There's maybe 8 actual parking spots, including the spots behind the building.
