“The Braised Short Rib is beyond perfection. I truly mean perfect. The food overall was amazing. I was surprised the drinks were not good. Most things just taste like lemon juice and one drink was so bad I left it full. I will say their chilled saké is good. Great food, great service. Will be back again for sure.“

“Amazing food!! We got the Beef Pad Thai spice level 5 and it was super super spicy and super good! This is my first time ordering from here and I will definitely be ordering more! One of the best Pad Thai ! The portions are huge ! But very filling and highly recommended! Must try and glad this place is local to us. These pictures represent just one serving“

“I’ve been here twice now, I enjoyed every dish I have received so far! I’ve gotten the green papaya salad, Thai style, the tofu in tamarind sauce, the Laos sausages, and the banh-xeo with tofu. All really good so far and well flavored and textured. Their banh-xeo was by far my favorite both times I went and then their Laos sausages are amazing and have all the sauces and vegetables I anticipated. I can’t wait to try more! The service was also really good and professional as usual! Ive also had the Vietnamese iced coffee and Thai ice tea, Vietnamese coffee was better to me!“

“I had fried rice with chicken and steak. It was delicious. Only problem was I ask for mild but I didn't taste anything spicy at all not even a lil kick. Next time I'm going to try hot. But overall nice neighborhood right next to Rita water ice. Great customer service and great first dish. I definitely recommend people to try Thai food from here.“

“The Crispy Chicken Basil is my favorite dish. Chicken is tender while lightly fried with sweet basil. Batter shipped green beans are delicious. Everything was spiced just right. Spicy but not too spicy. You may ask for extra. Service is exceptional. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend Viman Thai restaurant.“

“Got take out tonight for me and my parents and everything was absolutely delicious!!My dads go to is the Tom yum soup and it’s his favorite soup ever! Kind of the only time I see him enjoy eating vegetables! He gets the vegetable one even!I got the massaman chicken curry and it was the best comfort curry ever! The sauce is creamy and awesome flavor with the peanut and classic curry veggies! It was really tastySorry I didn’t take a pic cause I’m eating the leftovers right now and just needed to review“

“Absolutely amazing Thai food to go. We ordered the Fried Tofu (super crispy and firm but not dried or greasy), shumai (pretty good but a bit dense and could not really make out the shrimp or crab), fantastic Tom ka (order it spicy!), pad Thai, drunken noodles, and sweet and sour chicken for the kids! The noodles were good and spicy and the kiddos loved the sweet and sour. It was such good chicken, the adults even enjoyed. But the cherry on top was the absolutely kind and sweet phone and in person service - which is becoming a diamond in the rough. Super impressed from the first hello to the last bite!“

“The food and service really sing here. Atmosphere is light and open... very nice. The menu is not 'expansive', but what they have is all very well prepared. Service is on point. Timely, good with recommendations, relaxed. Chabaa is one of my regulars.Dietary restrictions: Where many restaurants have 80-90% chicken dishes, Chabaa has a range of protein options (chicken, beef, seafood/ shrimp, tofu). Nice.“

“Went with friends, living in the neighborhood, and two of us ordered vegetarian. Everyone cleaned their plates, and Jan loved her sweet and sour vegetables, asking for the recipe. BYOB was a plus and we were not charged for a bottling fee. Service was excellent as was the food. Casual dining!“

“The food here is overall very good. The green curry is spot on, I think we got medium spiciness which was perfect. The massaman was only OK, not authentic, I won’t order it again. The staff are lovely. I haven’t eaten in so can’t comment on the atmosphere.“

“Pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem! My husband and I dined here early on a Friday evening. We had the tofu and steak appetizers, Tom Yum soup, green curry, and coco-shrimp.Everything was delicious, flavorful, and came out hot! Service was prompt and efficient. We will definitely be back for dining in or take out in the future!“

“If your looking for true Punjabi food you will not be disappointed in the amount of options they have at this restaurant. There are vegetarian and non vegetarian options for any persons taste. We enjoyed many Tandoor Appetizers that were cooked to perfection. The food came in a very timely manner. The portion sizes was perfect for a large group of people. When you ask for mild you indeed get mild food and if you ask for spicy they accommodate accordingly. I will make this one of my must visit stops when I'm back in the area.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly! There were children with their families here. Very inviting for children“

“We recently lost our Aunt and Da Shin was her favorite place to go, so on the night before her funeral, a bunch of family went in for dinner! The service was great and the food was just as good! We gave 4-stars because the atmosphere could use some cosmetic updating but other than that, it's a great local place to get some good Chinese food with attentive service!“

“Venturing into a culinary escapade at "Surise 2" became a highlight for our group, especially for our friends visiting from Baltimore. This dining experience was more than just a meal; it was a journey through delectable Thai cuisine that left a lasting impression. The unexpectedly light and non-greasy fried rice not only surprised us but also became an instant favorite among our party. Our customary Pad Thai "litmus test" received high marks, adding to the overall positive vibe of the evening.The standout moment, however, was the owner's generous gesture of gifting us a serving of crab Rangoon on the house. This unexpected treat showcased the restaurant's commitment to ensuring a memorable experience for its patrons.Sharing this adventure with our friends from Baltimore added an extra layer of enjoyment, turning a simple dinner into a shared experience filled with laughter and camaraderie. We're eager to return to "Surise 2" and explore more of their menu, knowing that each visit promises not just delicious Thai dishes but also a welcoming atmosphere that makes dining there a genuine pleasure.Vegetarian options: Fried tofu in the curry was amazing.Parking: Lancaster avenue Street parking can be difficult at times.“
