Jay O. "Definitely the best Chinese restaurant I've had in the Orlando area. I had the Kung Pao chicken, pork fried rice and an egg roll. Main course had lots of flavorful chicken and al denta vegetables. Just right. A generous portion of pork fried rice and a crispy egg roll made the meal a delight. Important note here, no inside dining. ALL orders must be phoned in for take out service. That's the only negative here. I chose to eat in the car because this location is an hour drive from my house."

Michele V. "Long time customer- over 15+years. Love their sushi and their customer service. Pete is the best. Tried the Hamachikama jaw this visit and it was amazing. Crispy skin and tender fish. Jackie Rangoon is the best egg rollish starter- egg roll dipped in tempura hot and cheesy w/shrimp inside. Philly roll is always on our table. Excellent window seats for the whole dining experience."

Mel Z. "I have been coming to this restaurant since it opened. I even got a couple of my co-workers hooked on the place and they still visited from time to time. This past weekend I was in the area and a friend and I decided to get dinner. We rotate from our usual favorite dishes and the taste was still as good as I remember. We got the Curry Vermicelli with Chicken and the Chicken Curry. Both were fresh, made to order, tasty, flavorful and a good portion. We were so hungry that we finished them! It was busy for dinner and there was only 1 person doing various jobs, so if you are not patient or want to be taken care of right away, take this into consideration. It did not bother us and we patiently waited for our turn to place our order.It is one of my go to's for Vietnamese in Lake Mary, so it sure did nit disappoint."

Their food is always so flavorful and if you love spicy then just let them know you want the authentic heat level. Otherwise it will be very mild. I enjoy coming here and every time I have had something different. I know you can do the BBQ but I have not done that yet. I've only ordered a la carte items."

Charles M. "City Pho appeared at first as an unassuming place as I entered with my wife for a Friday date night meal. We chose seating and discussed the menu questions with our server. He was helpful and provided the minimum service with kindness. We started with grilled chicken summer rolls. The rolls were fresh as you'd expect with the stripes on the grilled chicken still setting in when they arrived at our table. The peanut sauce was perfectly peanuty, sweet and thick. For entrees, we chose Buddha Delight with an upgrade to cauliflower rice (+$3) and Curry Stir Fry with Beef upgrade (+$1). The Buddha Delight, aptly named, delivered a tasty vegetarian experience and the cauliflower rice stood on its own. I enjoyed the yellow curry sauce with very fresh stir fry veggies and beef that was surprisingly just okay. I used my rice noodle substitute for rice (+$0) with the leftover curry sauce AND the fish sauce that was included with the summer rolls. I wanted to try the Vietnamese Coffee but it was too late for me to ingest caffeine. Maybe next time!Recap:Ambiance 3.0Service 3.5Food 4+"

Vickee J. "The atmosphere is truly immersive--it instantly transported me out of Orlando and back to my time in Japan. We visited midday when it was empty, so I was surprised they didn't offer a choice between a private booth (which most people would likely prefer) or a table. However, when another couple requested a booth, they were accommodating--you just have to ask.The omurice with demi glaze sauce was absolutely delicious, but the katsu, despite looking great initially, was disappointingly soggy. The rice burger was overly greasy, falling apart when I tried to eat it, which was a letdown. I took it home, hoping to salvage it by draining some oil and reheating it, but it was still inedible. I'm not sure if this was a one-off issue or a sign of declining quality, but I'd recommend sticking to non-fried items like the omurice and ramen. The honeycomb platter was tasty (including a small sampling of eel, scallop, shrimp tempura, seaweed salad, edamame, lobster ball, and tamago). The restaurant is part of Kyuramen, with an attached TBaar boba shop, offering plenty of drink options for dining in or taking to go. Many entrées come with a combo option to add a lemonade or Thai tea, which I highly recommend--the tea was excellent.Overall, a mixed experience, but the ambiance and some dishes make it worth a visit if you choose wisely."

Jessica J. "While standing outside, on the sidewalk, scanning the QR code on the glass window, and trying to view a menu on our cell phone, a very lovely employee opened the door and offered us paper menus. This kind gesture was greatly appreciated! In fact, we decided to eat at this cozy establishment!We ordered pot stickers, and two fried rice dishes. The food was okay. I've used the word "okay" because we found the rice to be very greasy. We drank water, yet the total bill was over $5o.The staff was quite cordial. Perhaps we would go again to try the pho."

Thysis R. "Pretty good first visit. We dined here for a friend's birthday on a Saturday evening and it was packed! I highly recommend making a reservation or you may not get a table. They offer wide selection of different dishes that I would normally not try. For example, stir fry frog, dry fried pork chitterlings, stir fried kidneys etc. Definitely not my cup of tea on any day...lolThey do however offer a great selection of regular Chinese dishes along with traditional Sichaun dishes. It's a very lively place. Love the decor. I started my meal with the spring rolls. I would skip these next time. There was nothing special about them. For dinner I chose the sizzling beef dish which was very basic. Flavor was good and it came out on a hot cast iron plate. Next visit I would definitely order something with a little more spice. I had a chance to taste the cucumber salad which was delicious. Since it was my friend's birthday, they brought out fried donuts with ice cream. The donuts were good. It was a good way to end a fun evening."

Erin G. "This restaurant has been on my list of places I want to try. This is a fast food restaurant on the outside including a drive through but a nice family restaurant on the inside. I would encourage you to go inside to pick up your order. More on that later.The inside has comfortable tables and booths, a cute selfie wall and old school gumball/toy machines near the entrance. Sure to thrill kids of any age. Sorry no claw machine.The big draw here is ramen, but I wanted grilled pork, vermicelli and salad. As soon as I approached the counter it seemed like the owner was there instantaneously to take my order. I asked for extra salad but I should have been more specific. Unfortunately I had not charged my phone, so no food photos.What I really liked:-They sell boba teas but offer filtered water machines directly across from the counter. -Pho Drive Thru offers a sauce bar where you can jazz up your food. Not just hot sauce but a good selection.-The topping bar made me so happy. I really like fresh basil on my vermicelli and salad. They had fresh basil sprigs so I could add plenty.-A lot of Vietnamese restaurants add fried spring rolls which is just filler so they don't give you as much protein. My entree contained a large portion of perfectly grilled thin pork chop. Tasty.-I asked for more salad so I got extra lettuce. I should have said something like more cucumber. Next time.To summarize Pho Drive Thru is serving up some high quality food whether you drive through or go inside, but pickup inside to get all the extras."

It is a smaller spot so if you want to be sure to have a table I recommend going when they open! My husband and I both got Mr. J's Hand-Pulled Noodles for our first visit. We both did them at a mild spice level and I did the "Normal" width noodles and my husband picked the "thin" noodles. We could see the noodles being pulled and made in the back which was so fun!! We both loved our choices and it was the perfect level of spice. The broth was so flavorful and it was such a large portion. We can't wait to come back and try a different kind of noodle!"

Kelsey B. "As a pasta lover I've always seen this and been intrigued. However, I've been deterred at the thought of "fast food pasta." I truly have to say that upon my first bite I was blown away. I definitely expected it to be a 3/10 but I would give it a solid 8.5. Even the pasta itself was cooked to perfection which can be hard to get it just right. The price is excellent for the amount of food you get. What I did not like about this location is specific is the cleanliness. It was not busy at all yet the entire dining room was plenty with dirty plates. I sat and ate my food for about 20 minutes with only one person coming in and no one really bothered to clean up the dining room. The manager (or chef) did come out and check on me which was nice even considering this is quick service."

This one is in a small strip mall, and you wouldn't notice it unless you were looking for it. I love the decor, there's so much to look at with the 2D art. You place your order at the counter and then you are seated. The food is quick and the service is friendly. I had the crispy pork bowl and added a poached egg which was ! This is a great spot for a quick meal, the prices are excellent, and you can get some fun photos. Seriously, try the pork belly, it's incredible. Did I mention they were giving away free keychains with a purchase? We will be regulars at this spot!"

Ramón Y. "I brought a group of 9 to eat at this restaurant. Hoping to find the true flavor of Thai. I'm from California and so I compare all the ethnic restaurants in Florida to the ethnic restaurants in California. I was sure this was not going to live up to my expectations. I tested them and ordered dishes that I would normally order at my favorite Thai restaurant in California. To my surprise, the dishes I ordered at Thai Thani was just as good as the same dishes I ordered in California. The only comment to Thai Thani is regarding their Prik Nam Pla. Add sliced garlic, lime juice the same amount is your fish sauce and finely chopped shallots. It will make that condiment perfect. Otherwise, I will always come back to this restaurant. An authentic Thai restaurant. The decor in the restaurant something everyone she see. It's like being transported to Thailand. Bravo! The service was wonderful. Our server always made sure we had everything we needed. the only name I have for our server is L-Thai."
