We had a nice time here today. The food was good but the service was a bit slow. I think our poor server was by herself, covering all tables.

Second and last time we "visit". Took my husband to celebrate his big Birthday! Only to be disappointed about the entire experience. We were the only ones there besides a table with 3 women. The place was so cold I left my jacket on, server commented she was cold too. Food arrived COLD, the bottom of bowl was warm. The Ginger chicken lacked flavor, impossible to imagine, I know, no ginger? The sauce could have been dish water. My Pangang was cold and no sauce, what? I am from Calif and have always had Panang hot and bubbly in metal container with warmer. The rice was wet and mushy? No condiments, no level of heat asked? We know how to cook. It was SO disappointing, as we have only eaten indoors 1 other time during our 2+ years of pandemic. Complain? How? I really believe I couldn't complain without being rude. We took a few bites, took it home and added ginger and seasonings the next day, hate to waste more $ and salvage it I made Jasmine rice in 20 min. The owner was present. Save your money and spare the horrible experience. Made my husband a sandwich, which he enjoyed. Good thing I baked him a cake from scratch! Meanwhile, I was embarrassed his birthday meal would be a bad memory.

The service and food was amazing! Can’t wait to go back.

Had a friend in from out of town and decided to try this Thai cafe. It was such a surprise. Loved loved loved it. Great food. Great service. Definitely recommend!

Carry out. The server was as professional as they get:A+. She took my order at the bar and asked me I’d like something to drink while I wait. Cool. Now the Food. I ordered Pad Thai Tofu and Penang Curry with chicken. My wife said the flavor of the Pad Thai was “just okay” but that 3/4 the wt. was noodles with very sparse veggies. 2/3 the sauce for the Penang Curry was in the bottom of the plastic, carry out bag. Word of advice, anything as soupy as a Penang Curry should be boxed in a plastic container with a lid or placed in a fold pack box and NOT in a flimsy styrofoam clam. Do the cooks sample what they’re cooking? They should because my curry was BLAAAAAND as all get out. The chicken was also dry but tolerable. The veggies in the dish were fresh but again, sparsely portioned. This was the third strike from either dining in and lastly ordering take out. I’ll say this, at 6pm, the restaurant was fairly busy for a Monday. I honestly have no idea why. The best part was the professionalism of the server, period. They are no Thai Hut. Sisters restaurant is attractive and hip enough inside and they serve wine and spirits. Fantastic! The food, however (again, I’ve tried several items on a few occasions..) is just kinda blah. I’d say, try to reinvent yourself with heart and soul because I truly want to enjoy your menu.

Placed an order for egg roles (not spring rolls) They came old cold. I sent them back. Bar server, where I’m placed, says well they just were made I said ‘no, not really. I asked for a replacement order to which she rolled her eyes and let out a big sigh. The new was fine. It took about 5-6 minutes and came in piping hot. THAT’S FRESH I intended to have the lettuce wraps for my main meal. Thinking best, I’ll never ever be back there again SAD Too many other great places to dine downtown Rockford, I am a native here. SHAME ON YOU TWIN SISTERS!! PS You really should not have your servers eating their junk food behind bar, slamming Doritos, etc EXTREMELY GROSS

Food is always delicious here and the service is stupendous. Ashley was very attentive and made the experience delightful.

great food and good service!

I like to give credit when it is due, but honestly, this place isn’t it. This was my first and last time trying food here. I got the curry noodles, paid $17 and not even the portion size seems to be worth $17 (will add pic of what box it came in). I wouldn’t be this mad about the price if the food was at least good.I dont know if the people rating 4+ stars really have tastebuds. The taste reminds me of just a more expensive happy wok/ panda express noodles and add on a burnt taste. No authenticity at all. Especially when I want a curry taste and get nothing close to it.This isn’t my first time trying curry. I have 100% tried better yellow curry at Pho Square but decided to get out of my comfort zone to try new places. This is why restaurants in rockford never last. They over price their items and to top it off it’s not even good. Please do yourself a favor and try Pho square for authentic curry. That place is delicious and affordable!

Good food, levels of spicy not too high, or maybe waiter didn't believe that I will able to eat chosen level and gave me one below.
