    Our server, Sam, was personable and responsive. One of our dinner guests' meal was not up to the standard we have come to expect at the Blue Orchid. I believe the entree was the Cognac Steak - extremely tough...so Sam made arrangements to not charge for that meal. It was the right thing to do. b The lue Orchid is one of our favorites - we will be back soon!

    Mostly good. Wish there had been notice of the very limited parking ( about 4 spaces behind). It’s much easier to find street parking than to negotiate that narrow space that empties into the one-way maze that is downtown LNK. Menu item “3/4 lb Alaskan King Crab with fried rice “ disappointed: crabmeat was minced and buried within the mammoth mound of fried rice. Hard to imagine it was 3/4 lbs. Other entrees were excellent; for most people just an appetizer would be enough.

    If you’re looking for an incredible Thai dining experience, look no further than Blue Orchid Thai Restaurant! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, with beautiful décor that sets the perfect mood for an authentic Thai meal. I ordered the Pad See Ew with chicken and Pad Thai with chicken, and both were absolutely phenomenal. The flavors were rich, bold, and perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of savory, sweet, and umami notes. The noodles were cooked to perfection, and the portion sizes were surprisingly generous—especially considering the reasonable prices! To start, I had the Chicken Thai Rolls and Chicken Tempura, both of which were crispy, flavorful, and incredibly fresh. The dipping sauces complemented them beautifully, adding an extra layer of depth to each bite. To round out the meal, I enjoyed a pot of Lemongrass Jasmine Tea, which was fragrant, soothing, and the perfect pairing for such a flavorful feast. Beyond the amazing food, the service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and quick without feeling rushed. The staff clearly takes pride in ensuring every guest has a wonderful experience. Overall, Blue Orchid Thai Restaurant delivers authentic, high-quality Thai cuisine in a fantastic setting. The portions are generous, the flavors are spot on, and the value is unbeatable. Whether you’re a Thai food lover or trying it for the first time, this spot is a must-visit!
