Bonsai Kitchen

Takeout service:The person who took our order was very pleasant. All items were included as ordered and special instructions were followed. That's sadly where the compliments end.I have never in my life had Thai food as bad as I have here, and that is not an exaggeration. I feel bad slamming a restaurant this hard, but I can't in good conscience recommend them.We ordered 3 noodle dishes (udon, pad thai, drunken noodle), a pineapple fried rice, and a red curry. The noodles in every dish were overcooked, the rice was dry, and the curry had NO flavor and the slightest bit of heat. Usually curry is much more vibrant in color, and it was barely a shade of pink. It was also thinner than I am accustomed to. The sauces in the noodle dishes were quite plain and didn't taste like the flavors I expect from these dishes. The udon's "brown sauce" tasted like literal soy sauce and nothing more. The whole order gave the impression of extremely Americanized/watered down Thai food and it was very disappointing. $60+ spent for less than average food. Based on most other reviews, this experience seems out of the ordinary, but we will not be ordering again and will stick to our normal go-to place for Thai cuisine (that is sadly closed on Mondays).

I'm hesitant writing this review because I don't want others to find it but...I'm for the people and every one needs to try this place! Decent prices and great portions. Never have to wait and the staff is so friendly!

I had this place for the first time today and am quite confident I will not be back. I ordered it to go at lunch time as it seems to be a popular lunch spot. I had to call in the order as there is no online option. Though, it was rather straightforward. The first thing I tried was the soup. I was told that it was in a big container but still the same amount. Though, you can see by the line that it wasn't the case. It was also clearly separated and I took the pic after much stirring. It was unlike any Tom kha gai I've ever had. It was one note and filled with rice noodles and even cucumber. I couldn't eat it. Next up was the spicy tuna. It was a terrible texture so no amount of soy or wasabi could save it. Lastly was supposed to be tofu pad Thai but it was full of the strangest veggies for a pad Thai: broccoli, celery, and tons of cabbage. The taste was very sweet and did not hit on any of the other notes of pad thai: sour, spicy, or salty. Was ketchup used? I hated it and the mushy rice noodle texture. I was extremely disappointed as I couldn't eat anything that I spent $30 on.

The sushi was delicious and fresh. The customer service was excellent. The restaurant is very cute and welcoming.

I had the chicken with basil rice... their food is delicious! I highly recommend the TOM KA soup. Coconut milk, Lemon Grass, carrot, chicken, ohh it is sooo good!

The sushi was awesome Roll cash money was the bomb and red dragon yum yum I got the wonton soup with veg was flavorful and pad Thai was fulfilling

Great hibachi, the Kannapolis roll was amazing, small hole in the wall off the path but worth going to for sure!

Every bite we ate was delicious and full of life! I had the wonton soup and larb beef salad and I was oooo-ing and awww-ing the whole time. My kids has the chicken fried rice and it was the best chicken fried rice I've ever had. Everyone loved their food and we were already looking forward to our next visit. The owner is so sweet and I could tell she enjoyed talking with us. Servers were attentive and on point. Would highly recommend for all things Thai. Looking forward to trying their sushi.

Great little clean place. This is a family run restaurant. You can tell the people preparing the food really care about quality. We met Sunshine and she was the nicest lady. The decor was very nice too. We had a little of everything and can't decide what was best. Sushi Good, appetizers Good, Mains were Good. If you read this review I hope you go.Best to Bonzai!

Was in the area and googled the location. I received a very warm welcome upon coming in the door. I ordered a spring roll appetizer that was amazing. The dip that came with the spring rolls was awesome.My meal came and it was very appealing in sight. I ordered a dish that had a slight kick to it. When I say that it was good.. .it was good. The vegetables were cooked perfect. Even the rice was hot and tasty.I am not much into carrots but they were good also. And to complete my meal I ordered a sushi roll that was recommended by a staff member. The Dynamite sushi roll is definitely something I will order again.This place is a hidden jewel. If you are in the Kannapolis area come check Bonsai Kitchen out. You will not be disappointed!
