My family of 4 really enjoyed our lunch at the Lemongrass today. Like everywhere else, this place was also short staffed. But our server was so kind even when she was clearly swamped with orders. (She was the only one on the floor) We have eaten lots of thai food and sushi from many different restaurants all over the country and this place was was solid. Sushi was fresh with good rice to other ingredient ratio. Thai entrees were well seasoned and flavorful. We ordered mild for all the entrees since we have young children and had no problem with spice level.
nice place if you would like some Japanese food but your friends want to eat Thai food. Recommend Godzilla Roll, pineapple fried rice, and salmon donburi. I tried their pad Thai once and it was a little bit dry, maybe it’s just a onetime thing.
This is my FAVORITE Thai food place in all of VA! I highly recommend the masaman curry you will not be dissapointed! I also love the orange peel beef!
The restaurant was perfect for lunch. Friendly staff and good menu for Tai or Japanese food. Prices affordable and great tasting food.I would definitely return.
Lunch deal is great - best value for money Thai curry in Cville. Really tasty too, excellent tofu, and definitely on the spicier side! ?
Lots of space for dining. Same good taste as before. A little pity of no Thi-tea.
The sesame tofu was one of the best I've ever had. The rice was a bit off today, a bit cold and clumpy. I'm sure this place has on and off days, perhaps we came on a slightly off day. I'd recommend a bit more training for the waiters as well (didn't really bring us plates or silverware until we asked... Was a bit odd).
Great fresh food as always. The quality of the food has been great each and every time I have been for the last 10 years.
i’m not the type of person to write bad reviews for restaurants, especially locally owned restaurants that are obviously struggling due to short staffing problems during covid times. however i felt morally obligated to tell people to stay away from this place. i am sick to my stomach as i write this review and have been for hours after eating at this restaurant. i ordered curry and asked them to make it a 2 out of 5 hot level. after a friend and i waited over an hour for our food, i was initially served pad thai with meat in it (i’m vegetarian). my friend was not brought one of the dishes she ordered at all and we had to ask for it again. once i tried my curry, it seemed much spicier than what i ordered, but i was so hungry after waiting so long i ate it anyway. i didn’t want to say anything since the restaurant had customers standing all over the place, waiting for their orders, with only one server attending to the entire dining area. at one point another customer had been waiting so long he asked the server to just, “give him anything they had ready” because otherwise he would be late for his class at UVA and he was starving. not long after eating at this restaurant i became very sick and have been for hours with no end in sight. i'm sure i got food poisoning from here. please do not go to this restaurant, there are many better, safer options close by.
