I really like the food here, and I’ve never had a bad experience with it. I love the massaman curry and the mango shrimp. My husband gets the drunken noodles, and the kids love the pad Thai.The only thing that bothers me is they have some fish tanks, and the fishes’ water seems really dirty every time I go in there. I wonder if they’re not cleaning the tanks enough, so it makes me wonder about the state of the kitchen. ?

I don’t normally review places but here I am. We’ve been to PT several times in the last few years with nary a complaint. Tonight we sat for over 30 minutes without even receiving our appetizer order. We ended up leaving and coming to Archa Nine. The table next to us received the entirety of their order over the course of time we sat there waiting for ours. So by the time on person finished their meal, their friend received what they ordered. Not sure what’s going on but it’ll be awhile before we attempted Planet Thai again. I’m leaving 2 stars for the other times we’ve been and it’s been good.

We have been coming here for years and always have a great experience! Tonight, we celebrated a birthday with our family. They easily accommodated 8 of us. Service was great, always filling our drinks and making sure we were okay. Food was hot and fresh! Medium spice was not too spicy. I only took 3 photos of Drunken Noodles, Spicy Eggplant and Thai Basil with Tofu. Everyone else had different curries. Everyone loved their dishes!

Just went for the first time and will definitely go back. My girlfriend had drunken noodles and I had something I couldn't pronounce but was super delicious with noodles, chicken and lettuce. The gyoza & egg rolls are an amazing appetizer as well. Super friendly staff and can't wait to go back. Very affordable prices.

The pad Thai chicken was really good. Even my fiance enjoyed it.even the duck was good

Large portion sizes. Food taste was average service was good

I was very intrigued to try this Thai place because of other reviews saying it was good. I was sadly disappointed. First off they were either under staffed or could not keep track of which guests had arrived before others. We were seated quickly but our order was not taken for almost 15mins. Our order took almost 30mins later to arrive at our table. The place was not full or busy. We ordered Spring Rolls which per the menu we would get 5, when they arrived, we got 3. They were egg rolls (fried), not spring rolls (fresh). We mentioned this to the waitress, and she stated that the restaurant didn't get spring rolls, this was what they had. No apologies or any normal courtesy of a messed up order. How about if someone orders something and you don't have it, say so; then I could order something else. Don't bring me a different dish and call it good. We also ordered Panang Curry and Drunken Noodles both should have been fairly spicy, they were barely spiced at all. Sadly, the curry was super watery and didn't coat the veggies or chicken at all. The drunken noodles were mostly noodles and they were not the right kind of wide noodles either. Wholly a not good experience, I would not recommend this place. Move along to some where better, with courteous wait staff and better food.

Had the crab fried rice and it was delicious! The only downside is that there were some pieces of crab shells left in the fried rice which was a bit inconvenient because it kept interupting me ? but the taste is really good. The flavor was phenomenal. Also liked the Thai iced tea here. It's not overly sweet like some restaurants.

Planet Thai is great. The food is delicious, the service is outstanding, and the price is right. Highly recommend if you like Thai food. If you haven't tried it you need to.
