I got takeout of the Panang curry with tofu, which came with rice. Decent curry but wish the base was a bit more flavorful. The vegetables mixed in were mostly zucchini and cabbage and pea pods, which I hadn’t seen before. More onions and peppers and broccoli would’ve been nice for texture.

I am really disappointed with my order from this restaurant. I ordered through Door Dash and will be leaving a review there as well. I ordered Pad Thai with beef which is supposed to have bean sprout, egg, green onion and chopped peanuts. Well……… at Thai 55 my Pad Thai came with no bean sprout, no chopped peanuts and no green onion, rather the Pad Thai came with unadvertised shredded cabbage that had the resemblence and crunchiness factor but not the flavor of bean sprout once stirred in and it wilted a bit that lead me to believe that this restaurant advertises one thing but serves up another with sustituted and or possibly inferior ingredients ( plainly put CHEATING!!!! ) Additionally I ordered fried Chicken wontons and recieved fried pot stickers instead ????

Never had a drier, more sad looking pad thai. The pork was obviously rewarmed from before, the noodles didn’t have any flavor, there was no sauce to keep the whole thing together. Dry and tasteless, what a terrible combination. Run, don’t walk away from this place.

Tried panang curry with chicken. Overall just okay at best, and not up to the mark for the price. The choice of zucchini in the curry was very off and the vegetables seemed partially cooked.

This food was horrible! The tempura veggies were SUPER GREASY!!!! The beef fried rice was spoiled and I’m not sure if that was beef, it just didn’t smell or taste right at all! It’s in the trash and I pray that I don’t get sick. I will NEVER order here again

I LOVE the pad Thai… but… today I got chicken coconut soup… this is NOt Tom kah Kai… there’s onion green / red pepper and tomatoes… no recipe I’ve ever had has had this in it… worst of all… I’m allergic to onion! I removed the onion… I can’t believe how much the put in!

I’m recovering from surgery and my friend asked me what I wanted. I selected Thai 55 through uber eats. I got the potstickers which were on special buy 1 get 1 free and the chicken pad See ew. The potstickers were okay but definitely disappointed in the pad See ew. It is supposed to be the protein of choice, rice noodles, eggs, broccoli and sweet soy.

I hate writing bad reviews. I know restaurants are just trying their best right now. But this experience was just not great and as I read, I think other people have had similar ones.
