Expensive. Bland. Caused stomach pain for a whole day. Brown - not full of colorful vegetables like Thai food's supposed to be. And to top it all off, they use MSG. Also it smells of rancid oil and bathroom cleaner inside. On a positive note - what a magnificent view from on top of the hill where they are! I might come back for that; not for their food.

Not the best Pad Thai I've had, but it was still quite good. The atmosphere is better than the average strip mall experience. But let's be real here, you are in Kent, OH. This is as good as it gets for Thai food here. You are going to have to drive outside of your comfort zone if you want better.Where this place truly excels is their ability to accommodate food allergies. For those of you without food allergies, let me explain... When someone orders something without an ingredient, the entire prep area must be cleared per order. If multiple requests are made in a single order, that makes it that more difficult and time consuming. They do this without fuss or muss.If you want Asian food in the Kent area, come here. They will take good care of you.Dietary restrictions: They will absolutely take care of any dietary restrictions you have with confidence.

Wild Papaya is my favorite Thai restaurant ever! I always get the tofu string bean, no fish sauce and it is incredible. Even when I lived in NYC I would still come back to town and eat here. The service is also great and the people are so kind. Always super clean as well.

Had dinner after a early movie. They were very busy so it took a little bit to get our food but the atmosphere great so waiting was not a problem. The waitress was very apologetic. When the food did come it was hot and it was fantastic. We will go back and will become our goto place. So glade we stop.

My wife and I visited on a Tuesday around 615pm for dinner. There was one couple there, otherwise empty.The hostess/ waitress was friendly and seated us immediately.I ordered the country style Pad Thai. It was fairly saucy - I prefer noodles dishes without as much sauce- but it was flavorful. 2 pieces of shrimp and the rest chicken breast slices.My wife got the crazy noodles (drunken) chicken. She enjoyed her dish.The ambiance was great. Small little sit down establishment.

We are plant based, but we were able to get food tailored to our requirements. It was tasty. The service was excellent.Vegetarian options: Several options for vegetarians. Many dishes can replace meat with tofu.Dietary restrictions: Have a few dishes that are whole foods plant based. So no oil.
New chef needed here. Not authentic Thai food. The PadThai (zero stars) had an overwhelming ketchup taste and overcooked soggy noodles. The worst PadThai I have eaten. We had one bite and couldn’t eat it. We also ordered the red curry (two stars) - was bland and NOT spicy at all. We had to ask for spice to add to it and the spice had no kick at all. No alcohol at this restaurant. Not recommended.

The Thai iced tea is the best I've ever had. And the duck entrees are unbelievable. The curry options are great too!

I had the misfortune of lunching during opening hours. I ordered pork with basil and the food was, how should say it, stale - as if simply reheated previous remnants. Boring and dreadful.

This place never disappoints. Their chicken pad Thai is to die for! Always tastes fresh, seems they take nessesary steps for food safety. They care a lot about ones food allergies which is really so thoughtful as most restaurants disregard this. Only place I’ll get pad Thai from, really the best in the area. We tried their veggie egg rolls last night too. So so good! The lady in front is always so sweet and we adore her.
