    We wanted to like this place. We really did. Pictures looked great. Walking in, everything was nicely decorated. Greeted quickly. Seated quickly. Service was fast but food was not as authentic as other reviews had mention. Kids meal was bland boiled chicken with noodle soup. Basically broth and a spaghetti noodles. Thought it was strange to have spaghetti noodles in an “asian” restaurant. Was expecting for either egg noodles or pho noodle type. I ordered the spicy noodle soup. Looked great but when I went to eat my soup. Again, was disappointed it was spaghetti noodles in an asian dish. Flavor was good but noodle choice for soup could’ve been something different. It was basically seafood Tom yum with spaghetti noodles. They also didn’t offer any Thai tea or Thai ice coffee. But all the servers spoke Thai. And they were playing Thai music. I was a bit confused and lost when the server told me they didn’t have any. If you want authentic asian. Look elsewhere.

    In our several visits to this neighborhood restaurant, food quality seems to be declining. Beef/broccoli dish was extremely salty with little broccoli. Fish in sushi roll was not very fresh. Server pushed buy-one get-one-free cocktails, but didn't explain that it was for each diner only. We were essentially tricked into buying four drinks instead of two. There are a lot of restaurants in this neighborhood. Asian Outpost needs to shape up-- or close.

    Had another wonderful experience at Asian Outpost. I asked the waitress for something different and she did not disappoint. I got something comparable to Thai shrimp and chicken fried rice. It was loaded with veggies and topped with a fried egg! Honestly it’s my new favorite dish!

    My first experience there was out of this world ... well, at least out of this continent. Asian Outpost has a wide variety of foods. Very attentive wait staff; our water glasses were never empty, and used dishes barely stayed on the table. Specialty drinks were flavorful and enjoyable. We will definitely be back!
