Takeout Review: Somewhere in Bangkok is an authentic Thai restaurant located in Connecticut. They have locations in Avon and Southington. Thai food is typically very flavorful; they use multiple spices and fresh ingredients to bring out the salty, sour, sweet, hot and bitter flavors. They have a vast menu with plenty of options and spice levels. They also offer boba tea drinks. It was a cold and rainy day so we decided to do takeout from there. I am usually a pad Thai or curry dish lover, it's my go-to, but decided on the chicken Pad See Ew this time around to mix it up. It's a stir fried flat rice noodle dish with broccoli, eggs, garlic, and soy sauce. The portion size was average and the flavor was robust. Next time, I look forward to trying out their pad Thai, panang curry, sweet chili wings, and panang fried rice, to name a few. Overall, it's a great Thai restaurant offering quality ingredients and delectable flavors.

Great first impression from my first visit for lunch. We had Bangkok fried rice and Ginger shrimp. They handled my wife's gluten free request very seamlessly. It was all plated very nicely and tasted great. I will definitely go back, try other items and see if they can earn a five star rating!

I had a great time here ! I went on a Tuesday night around 4:30/5, no wait time. The waiter was exceptionally kind. I absolutely loved the chicken satay with peanut sauce. And they’re halal!! I stayed for a while to read as well. Would definitely return here.

Where do I begin? Looking for Thai food I promise don’t try anywhere else. The Green Papaya is the place to go! I’ve tried many great Thai spots and I would recommend this heavily. If you’re not sure what to order my go to is Pad Thai crispy chicken. This spot is seriously great with such a delicious variety of food. I’ve been eating here for years and it never gets old whether it’s summer or winter I’ll always eat here. 🤗

I can’t rate the atmosphere because I’ve never eaten inside. Tonight was disappointing it seems the quality is waning these days. Ordered a cheeseburger and for argument sake I said well done in the beginning of the order; But after modifying other items I ordered either the well done was never written down or the cook just did what he/she wanted. My kid bit into the burger and it was pretty rare . Wasn’t bleeding rare but too rare for my taste let alone a child. So suffice to say no place is immune from these mistakes. I think every restaurant should be mandated to cook meats for well done. This was gross and I hope my kid doesn’t get sick. The other items were okay, seems the more I go the more it gets worse. I’m going to take a break from this restaurant for awhile. I’m really not one to complain online and it’s even harder for me to complain in person. Other restaurants are also on my do not go for awhile list. It just seems for the prices these days it more worth the effort to make it at home.

9/24- Their chicken sandwich with cheese and bacon comes together well with a lot of crispy bacon and crunchy bread. # August 2024 - One of the special menu of the week orders was basically chicken and waffles with a twist of poutine and pickles. Interesting. The standard menu grilled chicken sandwich is delicious and one of their healthier choices. It is a popular place and so packed last week there were no parking spaces available of their own, but you can park in an adjacent spot. Closed Sunday and Monday. Open until 7 pm on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Tuesday and Wednesday hours are 11-3:30 pm. # Nice place for locals or visitors driving down Rte 44 to pull over for some feel-good food. Outdoor seasonal seating. Customers order at the counter and are called when their order is done or wait staff brings the food to your table. We sat outside and asked the waitress if we needed to come back in to pick up our food, and she said, no, she would bring it to us. After a half an hour, I was about to get up and inquire how long it took for two burgers to be made with light traffic, when the cook himself came out with our food and nicely said he thought we left him hanging. ? Anyway, both burgers were very good and cooked to temperature. The Beau's Burger Bleu, with blue cheese and bacon, was very tasty, and the Mushroom & Swiss was equally so. Fries with my meal were the right combination of crispy and soft. My companion wanted onion rings, so this was added to the bill as a side. I've eaten here before doing reviews and always liked their chili dog. They do have salads, soup, and chili for those who do not want a burger and chicken tenders for kids. On the high end, they have lobster rolls - I was tempted to try one as I love to compare these, and the Shrimp Po' Boy, whole belly clam and clam strip platter also sound promising. There is much to try here with an easy stop off the road.

Outstanding food with good to great service! I picked an appetizer and a huge brisket plater that was outstanding all the way around. Little pricy, but what isn't these days. Dig the 50s diner vibes with early rock & rock playing at a reasonable volume. Definitely got my 💰 worth!

I was finally able to make it to this place, and was very happy I did. I'd been looking forward to it for some time. The location is not necessarily the best as it is on a very wide, fast-moving road. But other than that, it was very nice. There was plenty of parking around the back of the building, with plenty of handicapped parking, and spots reserved for those who've served. We had a little wait before we got our table, but once we did, it saw very nice. The menu was overflowing with delicious choices, and the waitstaff was super friendly. Once the food arrived, I was delighted by how good everything tasted. It was better than I was hoping for. One of the only downsides was that due to the accustical properties of the room, when a demon child started screaming, it was like that shrill was right in my ear. It was very unpleasant. However, that nasty creature was soon placated, and the rest of my meal was fine. Do yourself the favor of ordering the apple fritters. They are handmade, made to order, and simply amazing.

Very fair priced restaurant. You can get a large sundae to share for like 10 dollars. The milkshakes are great. The waitress I had was very polite, timely, and balancing like 8+ other tables. She was amazing. The price of fast food has gone up so much you might as well come in and order a better meal for about the same price maybe $5 extra if you wanna get yourself a great milkshake. The only downside is it can be loud because its a family restaurant meaning kids. However it's not horrid, maybe it's because I'm also a parent. But I've never had a bad experience of a kid being super loud or crying. I've come here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I've done the curbside pickup, I've come here after movies. Friendly's is a fantastic place for ice cream, food and at a very fair price.

I had an amazing experience at the Friendly’s in Avon! From the moment I walked in, the service was exceptional. Makenna and Ashlyn went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They were friendly, attentive, and incredibly accommodating of my food allergies, ensuring that I could enjoy my meal with peace of mind. It’s not every day you come across such thoughtful and professional service. Thank you for making my visit so enjoyable—I’ll definitely be backup!

My friends in South Windsor have been telling me about Sun Sun for the last year or so. I finally tried their food, and I’m thoroughly impressed! Not only was the food great, it’s affordable, and the tea is free too! Much needed yesterday during the rainy day! I’ll come back here again soon! I’m glad it was worth the drive for me from Hartford. Come eat here!

My family has been a dedicated customers of Sun Sun since they opened. Their food has always been fresh and delicious! The quality of food and amount ( ratio to rice/protein) has diminished greatly. The crab Rangoons ( crab and cream cheese ) have gone from maybe 3 tablespoons of crab mixture to a nickle size of cream cheese and salt no crab .. picture to follow. Their egg rolls used to be so good now they’re just filled completely with white cabbage barely no pork or seasonings tasteless! Also picture to follow. This is the second time we have ordered and we’re disappointed the first time I thought maybe we’d give them some slack, the second time it’s like they are skimping on product but charging more…Don’t take advantage of your loyal customers Sun Sun. Unfortunately, next time we decide to treat ourself for Chinese take out we will be trying somewhere else. We work very hard for our money too!! Don’t try to rip people off!!

One of the worst Chinese spots I've ever had. They're nothing like the ones back in New York. New York Chinese so fat, is exponentially better !! The general tso's chicken is too big to bite when hot and it's kinda mushy. It should be kinda crunchy !! The yellow rice I had looked off. I didn't like how it looked. Take my advice and down size your general tsos chicken, then make it crunchy !!

Really great food for a great price!!! Guy at the front is always polite and friendly with customers. He even brought the food out to the car for my grandmother. Food is really tasty and you get what you pay for.

Rice has no flavor and the dumplings are made in a different type of wrapping and it’s very off . Only nice thing is they deliver but the food isn’t worth it .

I loved them but I just found a very hard substance in my food was being nice even after I recognized it was a pebble or rock of some sort in my food. When I called the lady acted as if I was speaking clearly enough. I said when and what I ordered and told her exactly what I found. After that she was oblivious to everything I was saying. I have a family I can be feeding my people this food and they could have ate that swallowed it and got sick or kids I'm highly upset with them. I spent $34 to almost be potentially sick and eat a rock? To then explain myself to them tonfeel like I'm the crazy one? Okay

I've had many great Chinese food orders from different restaurants but double dragon is by far my favorite. The food is amazing, hearty portions and great customer service.

I recently tried their food and had a mixed experience. I ordered sesame chicken and egg foo young. The egg foo young was decent, but the sesame chicken tasted off, and the rice wasn’t great either. When I went to pick up my order, the guy seemed bothered when I asked for oil sauce, which cost a dollar each—definitely felt unnecessary. I tried to pay with my card for the sauce, but he insisted on cash. Didn’t have cash instead he gave me hot sauce packets and said “it’s all the same idk why everyone wants that, it’s all the same” When I realized my egg foo young combo didn’t include a drink—only an egg roll—I asked if it came with a drink. He smacked his lips and seemed annoyed, telling me it didn’t come with one. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this place. Sun Sun Chinese offers better food and doesn’t charge for oil sauce.

Came out of work after a 10 and a half hour shift and was so hungry decided to try this place since my regular was SO unfortunately for me closed😭 and omg I’m not even joking So nasty!!! never again! The place was filthy that should’ve been the first red flag but I still decided to give ‘em the benefit of the doubt and try it cause you can’t always judge a book by it’s cover but then I got my food and There was like black specks on my chicken they’re a little hard to see but they are there no doubt no clue what it was it didn’t look like char at all not that that would be ok either but it definitely wasn’t that. then the crab ragoons were so disgusting the inside was a mess and they were SO GREASY legit dripping down my hand😢 plus they came with tartar sauce?? I thought that was weird… but that’s besides the point🤷‍♀️ and I LOVE crab Rangoons normally I’m so mad I even wasted my money and after a long day at work what a let down😭 just praying I don’t have food poisoning tomorrow not even trying to be mean but do better that isn’t even right seriously should’ve went and got my money back! sheesh what a mess I hope this place has a turn around 😒🤦‍♀️🤮

Love this place I refuse to order from anywhere else, been ordering from them for almost two years!

I ordered the boneless spare rib tips it was sweet not Smokey like you normally get at a Chinese Food Restaurant. My wings were just to salty and don’t get me started on the egg rolls that seemed like they were made and put down from last week. I would’ve gotten SuN SuN in South Windsor but I was stuck At home with my children. The only thing that we liked was the House fried rice (Big Big waste of money)

The best Chinese food around. I've been ordering from here since I was a kid and it's always top notch.

Came home late one evening during the holidays while staying with the in-laws. This place was the only thing that was open at that time, and I was also quite curious to see what Chinese food was like. Oh boy... what a joke - I could only laugh. Confused to see on the menu "chow mein" comes with rice, guy replied "chow mein no noodles! chow mein comes with vegetables." What what? so the mein, which means, noodles, as said also in Chinese "noodles" comes with no noodles?? "Chow mein comes with vegetables, Cantonese-style." Coming from Hong Kong, I think I'd know what "chow mein" and "Cantonese-noodles" meant - but guess I was wrong. Kung Po has no cashew nuts in them, instead they just give you peanuts. Fried wonton is another farce, nevermind it doesnt come with shrimp, but with pork, it was all soggy when you get them home and the skin was so thick. I've had my fair share of Americanized Chinese food but this was all and all pretty bad. I can accept food substitute... But this just doesn't taste even good. 🙄🤨

This is the most hygienic Chinese restaurant I have ever seen. The food is fresh and the service attitude is very good. I give you a thumbs up and will come again next time
