Gumrai Thai

The worst thai food we have ever had and worst dining experience in general. I strongly advise to stay away from this place if you don’t want get sick or simply disappointed. We entered the place on Saturday’s afternoon and was completely empty. We were one and only clients but the servers still didn't pay attention to us. The waitress gave us a face and didn’t even asked how we liked the food. But she had no problem with asking for a tip. Silverware was dirty and gross. But still - food was the worse, absolutely disgusting. Both tofu and shrimp dishes were simply soaked in the oil or some of fatty sauce and overstuffed with soy sauce. Egg in pad thai was smelly. We are still amazed how servers can be that rude and careless. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my enemy. Not really sure if inedible pad thai is worth almost $18. I regret that I didn’t speak to the manager.

I was disappointed with my recent visit to Gumrai Thai. It is our favorite Thai restaurant and we have visited many times, usually it’s a 5 star experience. We brought out of town guests and had a party of 10. Our food took an hour to be served. Our waiter did not check on us, and we had to waive him down to refill our waters. I understand he does not control how fast the food comes out, but it would have been nice to get some updates and at least refill our waters or ask if anyone needed anything. He also told us at the end of the night as we were paying our bill that they are short staffed. Again, this is understandable but it would’ve been more helpful to tell us at the beginning so we could adjust our expectations. The restaurant appeared pretty empty but I’m guessing the kitchen was busy with take out orders. I am a patient person but a 1 hour wait with no explanation or apology is unacceptable to me. The food was good but I hope they can improve their service.

I heard many great things of this restaurant and I was finally in the area to try it. The young man at the door was very nice, greeted me and brought me to my table. I ordered the sampler platter which had 3 Crab Ragon (which were pretty good, the homemade sauce was different then the normal sweet & sour sauce), 3 Fried Pot Stickers (which were very tasty with the sweet soy sauce), and 3 Egg Rolls (which were very disappointing. It had so much cabbage in it and no taste of anything else. ) I also ordered the Khao Soi with Fried Tofu and specified that i want Crispy Tofu. It was fried for sure but it was like they pre fried it and then put it in the curry. It wasn't Crispy at all. The noodles were luke warm not hot in temperature. I've had Khao Soi before and it's usually more flavorful then this. You usually taste the spiciness from the curry, they usually put pickled cabbage in it for the tartness with the lime. But unfortunately they didn't have pickled cabbage. They had Shallots, cilantro, ginger and lime. Overall it was ok. If you ask if I would be back. Unfortunately, no I will not be returning to this restaurant. Also, the ambiance was very clean. But in the women's restaurant it smelled like someone was smoking inside or near there. It smelled really bad. The One Star is for the only young man with glasses serving who tried hard to make everyone happy. I understand working in a restaurant where your not familiar with the food can be hard. I feel the young boy needs a bit more training on Thai food.

The staff is friendly and attentive. The food is always excellent, with sizable portions. We always have leftovers to enjoy the next day at home. The decor is pretty and the music is soothing.

First time here. Our server was very nice. Very welcoming. We went early for dinner so at that time they were not busy. But people started coming in and the place started getting busy. Service was fast. Ambiance is nice and very quite place with cute decor. We order tom yum soup with tofu. It was yummy. Loved the taste. Edamame were good. Pad Kee Mao spicy were the best. Were not that spicy as much as i expected but they were good. Green curry was good and spicy. Will definitely come back. Restrooms- very clean.
