Thai Orchid @ Soi 1

When I lived here I ate here often. Now when I visit I make sure to have duck curry at least once. Awesome.

Seafood Tom Ka Soup is good! Pad See Eew is salty. Sauteed Calamari is good but oily (it's my first time to have this dish).

This is an updated review as on our last visit to Thai Orchid in San Jose we noticed the quality of the food has declined. It is under new ownership as the food tastes heavily of MSG and was extremely salty. Sadly, post covid you can tell the food is not fresh anymore.

We like having dinner at Thai Orchid during the weekdays because it's less crowded than the lunch hour. It's pretty quiet unless noisy customers are having dinner. The food is reasonably priced and the staff is friendly. The wait time for our dinner is decent, no long wait times. The portion sizes are good for sharing with family or friends. Parking is free.

Lot of Vegetarian options. Fried Tofu with Dipping was delicious for the starter. Main dish with PadThai Noodle. They can customize as per your needs. Good balance of Veggies in the bowl. If you need spicy, You will need to specify them or you might get the medium spicy food. Such a nice Decoration indoor to give you the Thai Feel! Such a nice family own restaurant. Very polite service.
