Excellent food and the warm and friendly staff and chef make this the best Thai food in the Twin Cities! I think the Pad Thai is delicious, but I also love the green curry. And ...

Worst

We have gone to this restaurant couple of time since we like Thai Food, but every time we went to this place we had to wait for the waiter to show up and then Water to show up and...

Thai me up, Thai me down! 1/14/2003

Best Thai food between LA and Chicago. I've eaten at dozens of the ""best"" from both and in between. Ambience is quirky but one bite and you'll forget where you are. Beef Panang is outrageously good as is Satay appetizers. Pad thai noodles with chicken are a favorite. As for ""heat"" remember the old adage of: ""careful what you wish for"". I've found it difficult to taste after a dose of flesh-searing spice so keep plenty of water on hand. Service is always good and the owner has always made the rounds while I've been in. Royal Orchid is a mainstay I plan on keeping in my restaurant registry. Pros: Authentic as it gets, Excellent service, Clean restaurant Cons: Hours blow, Small dining room, Never enough water more

Thai-excellence! 11/24/2002

Best thai food I have eaten across the country. No other Thai restaurant in Twin Cities (and I have eaten at them all) even comes close. Panang (medium spicy is out of this world). Unique and well-prepared authentic desserts. Pat and Neda are gracious and accomodating hosts. They are always present to make sure your food is well prepared and always willing to satisfy their customers. Take-out will not disappoint as it is as delicious as eating in! more

The best damn Thai food around!!! 11/9/2002

Small restaraunt and hard to find, but well worth it! The BEST crispy rolls I've ever had anywhere (similar to eggrolls.) Very courteous staff, and prompt service. Reasonable prices, and absolutely wonderful food, and the chef/owner came out and greeted each table individually (tell Pat, that Chris sent ya!) I recommend the Pahd Thai, the Chicken Pangang, and the Cripsy Rolls. I will be a repeat customer for sure! Pros: Great Food!, Inexpensive, Very courteous Cons: Hard to find more

the best Thai in the midwest 10/24/2002

I have travelled the world, including Thailand, and have never found a restaurant that served better food than does the Royal Orchid. I prefer Thai food because of the delicate spices and the sometimes subtle tastes, and it always feels like I'm eating healthy food. The owners and staff are extremely friendly and they are never short of creative dishes that continue to astound me and my family. Pros: best food, friendly owners, creative new dishes Cons: in a shopping complex more

No Comaprison 9/16/2002

I am a long term customer. Needless to say how much I enjoy the food there. I always ask the manager for some suggestion since they are a bit different than other Thai restaurant around. I found many items which was not offer in other restaurant, except in Thailand. You should ask for suggestion if it is your first time. I enjoy the special treatment of having the chef came out to greet me. This place is most friendly and authentic. Pros: Friendly, Real Thai food, Best Pahd Thai more

Authentic 8/25/2002

You can always tell when you've found a place that makes real pad thai, and this is the best in the cities! Try the mango and sweet coconut rice for dessert. Pros: Lotsa parking, Take out available Cons: Bit of a drive more

Thai it, you'll like it 6/25/2002

The Twin Cities now have many fine Thai restaurants, but none offering better, more authentic Thai cuisine than the Royal Orchid, now located next to the Barnes and Noble near Rosedale. The menu may not be as extensive as Sawatdee, and the decor can't compete with The King and I, but the food is superb. A friend who has visited southeast Asia and developed a fondness for Thai cuisine claims that the Royal Orchid is the only Thai restaurant that serves the real thing in the Twin Cities. Pros: Authentic, Delicious, Casual more
