Lemongrass by Sip Saam Thai

My wife and have been to this place several times and we always enjoy it. We originally went to Sip Saam, but once we heard of this place we decided to switch and venture here, which thankfully is only 10 min away from our apartment.I'm gonna be honest. We just stick to the curry and haven't looked back. It's super fantastic and flavorful and we are never disappointed. My wife always sticks to the yellow curry, whilst I adventure to the pineapple (which is the best one by the way), and it always leaves us full and satisfied.Years ago I remembered we went there for Valentine's Day, and the restaurant treated everyone to a special strawberry ice cream ball for dessert, and it was epic. Granted, don't expect this every year, I'm just saying that this is what happened to us. But if this happens every year, please go just for the dessert alone.I can't wait to go back, and even as I'm typing this review, we are already trying to make plans for it again considering it's cold outside.

This was my first time going to a Thai restaurant and it was DELICIOUS! I got the Drunken Noodles. 10/10 would recommend. They ask for your preferred spice level on a scale from 1-10. I got a 5 and it was perfect.The service was super quick too! It didn't take long for our food to come out.My only critique of this place is that the smell was a little off putting when I first walked in. Other than that, I had a very pleasant experience! Honorable mention: THE WATER! It was amazing. I would come back for that alone. Hales Scale: 8/10

I've only ever had takeout but everything has been fantastic. The Tom Kha soup is literally the best I have ever had and my number one recommendation. I ask for it without tomatoes though because I think they add too many and I don't like them anyhow. Pad Ka-Prow and Yellow Curry are delicious as well.

Since I was running errands, thought of Thai and came here for an early lunch, about 11:30ish. At this time there was a 4 top and a single, plus myself. Not busy at all. I ordered off their lunch menu, the pad Thai, came with a crab rangoons and a nice size bowl of Tom yum with the pad Thai with soft tofu and beef. For a lunch special, I wouldn't say it was a great bargain but you got all that I mentioned, and suppose if it was delicious, I'd have a better review. I asked my waitperson which protein would be the most tender, she said beef or chicken so I chose beef with a side of soft tofu. Bad recommendation! The beef is flavorless, tough, chewy and dry. My mind has been made up, I will not be back for a 3rd time. I gave it another chance and they failed me.

Thank you Lemongrass for providing a good menu that is easy to understand. The food was awesome, spicy but just enough. The broccoli was fresh and crunchy. The meat tender and with the rice on the side it was excellent. I also enjoyed the oyster sauce flavor. I always like the fresh spring rolls and you didn't disappoint me. The peanut sauce was delicious too. It was thick and the peanuts on top make it look awesome.I did like the layout and furniture you have. This atmosphere makes you feel both at home but classy too. Since you have both indoor and outdoor seating makes it for everyone's preference. Thanks again for the wonderful dining experience.

This seems to be new place/additional location of sip saam Thai. Sip saam Thai is pretty famous in Austin so thought of giving this place a try as well. Tried panang curry and pad soon wen noodle, both items with tofu and medium spices. Good Thai food location on north Austin.

Great Thai restaurant in CP. Prices are reasonable. Portions are generous. Restaurant is super clean. Prompt takeout service.

This ambiance here is so fancy! Perfect for date night. The food is thai with a french twist. The drinks are also potent; overall a nice place to visit.

Let me preface this review by saying, I didn't grow up in this region and I am starting to realize that anything exotic... other than a burger and fries, may be below average or extremely mediocre and yet people in the region will rave about it even though they have no idea that it can be done WAY better. This is one of those many places in this region. The Tom Kha was great in my opinion but the green curry and shrimp spring rolls were among the worst I've ever had, and not that they were bad, but... I'd just have to say they were way less than average. I can make better at home, a lot better, and these were the worst I have ever had at any restaurant. These were both about a 3.2/10.I will admit, the peanut sauce for the rolls wasn't the worst I've had, which is a plus, but it also lacked a lot of flavor, probably made or bought from a company and then frozen etc. I can only think of one peanut sauce that was worse than this one tho, so I'd give it a 3.3/10.The pork ribs were absolutely and completely inedible by everyone at the table. Everyone had to try them to see just how awful they were and everyone agreed, send it back! It was the first time in my 40 years that I have EVER sent an entree back at a restaurant.... It was so bad I was just like, I really don't care what anyone at this place says, this may be their "House Specialty," but it's pure garbage... I've literally never sent something back in my entire life, but after offering these ribs up to both guests at my table to try, they also spit it out. This item was a Negative 10 out of 10 and gave me the green apple splatters in the restaurant shitter. Straight diarrhea from that rancid pig, again... So vile, disgusting, putrid, how dare you serve rancid pig to me and charge me $19 dollars for it.My first impressions of the pig? The pork ribs arrived at the table extremely hot, and they got to my table so quick... about 3.5 minutes after I placed the order, this initially was very alarming and screams of MICROWAVED PIG. I tried to cut into one of the little piglets and it was so tough that I could not cut into it. I had to tear off a piece with my fork and again, this meat was so extremely hot that I couldn't touch it.... It was like scorched earth. Again, I must reiterate, it was MICROWAVED! Microwaved Pork ribs!? This is central Texas and you are seriously going to serve me microwaved pork ribs? To add to this, these ribs tasted old, past their expiration date, and damn, just tasted like salt. It was bonkers to receive such an item, and on a sizzling skillet, so as to say, "we cooked this for you fresh on a cast iron skillet." Bull... this was microwaved. I could tell because it was about 450 degrees or more, and about as hot as the sun. I'd rather lick a cast iron skillet than bite into this garbage, seriously! Don't you know not to microwave pork? WTF?All in all, I highly doubt we will ever be back, the quality standards here are so low... But Central Texans don't know, they are just like, "wow! Thai food? What is that? Is this food from Taiwan, Tokyo... or Chyna? Wowzers, jee golly, this sure is gooood, better than my Whataburger and fries."Oh, also, to fulfill my 3 requirements set forth by YELP, let me mention the ambiance... Menus that are so sticky that you have to peel them apart like a 13 year old boys bed sheets. Also, what's with the hard bottom, wooden seats... do they think I was born in a barn? No cushions? This is worse than a bottom tier taqueria in the ghettos of Jalisco, Mexico, they even have cushions on their seats... hard pass, never again. I think, next time, we will get our mustaches and coochies waxed next door rather than eating at this awful place again.... Or maybe just stop in for the Kha soup, and beat it. Only good thing we tried last night...

Great food. The crab fried rice is tasty. I like all of the food that I ordered and the environment is nice.
