Wow. This place never fails to exceed our expecations. We've ordered the wrong dish on occassion and even those are awesome (and often become our favorites as well). This Thai restaurant has had some familiar staff members for a few years which provides some continuity, but most importantly, the food is right on. The spicy-ness that you get is exactly... more

Expensive, but the best food I've ever tasted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

As a local regular devotee I may be biased, but I have tried dozens of items on the Royal Orchid menu and have never ever been disappointed. A visiting Thai teacher at our school agrees that this food is superb and and excellent representation of authentic Thai food. Prices range form around $9-$18 for entrees. You will be pleased! more
