on Citysearch Jan 12, 2009We brought a large group to the restaurant based on a friend's recommendation. We'll not be taking food advice from that person again. The food was laden with MSG; nearly everyone left disappointed and hungry: the... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 17, 2008The service was slow and disappointing. I placed an order by phone for the Yellow Curry Chicken and spring rolls. They told me to show up in 15 minutes. I did. I paid. Then I waited another 15 minutes. Two adult males... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 12, 2007I went to Papaya Thai. I've never really been into Thai food, even though I'm part-asian until my husband took me here, only because we had a gift certificate given to us. Am I glad I went... try the lemongrass chicken... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 01, 2006I love Papaya Thai. That is basically what I have to say. I live very close and go very often for takeout, and if I have a friend over, we'll almost always go to have lunch/dinner. Whenever my friends come over, they... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 05, 2006We ordered take out from here and got red curry and yellow curry chicken. Both were excellent. The service was fast and efficient. Very reasonable priced and they pack the take out dishes so you will have left-overs... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 18, 2006I love this thai restaurant more than ever now. Don't let the looks and location deceive you because at Papaya their fusion of spices, their soups, and salad rolls are absolutely delicious. Everything tastes fresh... (more)

on Judys Book Oct 05, 2005I tried this restaurant because my friends had been giving it rave reviews. The prices are unbeatable and they serve you huge portions (especially with takeout orders), but I found the food was not as authentic or of... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 07, 2004Pad Thai was bland and some portions tasted burnt-- like the Chef left it on the pan for a little too long. I've been to Thailand before and the food here is nothing like real Thai food-- the wait staff could not even... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 07, 2003I had been looking forward to trying Papaya Thai but was sadly disappointed by the lack of "wow" in the dishes we ordered. The green curry dish w/chicken was tasty but other dishes were very bland. The chicken satay... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 09, 2002I love this restaurant. Their homemade tempeh is OUT OF THIS WORLD. It's excellent; better than getting tofu any day!! I haven't had a bad dish here yet; their curries are excellent, as are their stir frys and fresh... (more)
