Orchid Thai Cuisine

Such a cute little place! The Thai tea was excellent. We ordered the pad see ew tofu, chicken fried rice, dumplings, shrimp bikini, crispy duck and chicken pad thai. We had leftovers for sure after. My kids liked the dumplings, they were so mini and cute! My pad see ew and my husband's pad Thai both had great flavor. The duck was just okay and seemed a bit over seasoned. I would definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

The lady at the front was also our server and was helpful and accommodating to our kiddos. Great experience here and would recommend.

I enjoyed the pad thai here. I would skip the crispy basil duck- a bit salty. Our server was very attentive and nice. Their parking lot is gravel as most places in the area. I would return.

What a great find at the beach! Orchid Thai Cuisine has a very authentic Thai taste. Their Forest pork curry (no coconut milk curry) is super tasty. Stir fried Chinese broccoli was cooked perfectly crisp, The sauce for the soft shell crab is tangy and delicious. We loved every dish they served. Their Thai coffee has the perfect blend of bitter and sweet. We will go back!

Exceeded my expectations.

The curry, chicken satay, and garlic veg was excellent.

My wife was definitely pleased with the mango sticky rice.

Service was great and food came out quickly.

I didn't like a plate and they took it back with no issues.

The restaurant is casual and has ample seating both indoors and out.

This was our first time in Colonial Beach and Orchid Thai was a wonderful bit of Asian cuisine.

We stopped in for lunch after a quiet stroll along the beach. What a great Thai spot for a little beach town! We had several traditional dishes and they were all delicious. I especially enjoyed their Tom Kha soup, the coconut broth was rich and tangy with enough spice to feel warm and fuzzy. We also tried the chicken satay and the house fried rice and both were good. We would definitely come back.

This food had no business being this good. I am not from around here and decided to try this place on a mini vacation. It's surprised me how good it was! I am an Asian food aficionado and I am not easy to please. This place actually makes the food spicy when you ask for it spicy. The kind of spicy that leaves you wondering if it was worth it the next day when you're sitting on the toilet. Spoiler- it was worth it. I fell in love with our dishes. We got the drunken noodles and the basil fried rice. They put plenty of basil in the fried rice and the texture of the rice was perfect. The noodles were so delicious too. I also decided to try some Thai Tea with the dish and it was amazing!

The only con was that my party specifically asked for them not to put bell peppers in either dish because I am allergic (not deathly). However, there were peppers in the fried rice even though the waitress clarified twice with us I didn't want them on either dish. Thankfully, I could just pick them out but it could have been a big problem if I were very allergic.
In addition, the inside is not updated. However, as long as a place has great food... I could care less!

10/10 recommend! Was not expecting the authenticity at this restaurant. Great, quick service and piping hot food packed with flavor. There's a decent amount of indoor seating but wouldn't recommend for groups larger than 6-8. Outdoor seating as well. The pad see ew noodles were so chewy and had the perfect consistency. And the pineapple fried rice wasn't dry and had a perfect balance of sweet and savory. Just wish the fried rice was in an actual pineapple!

Travel a bunch and would say this place is in top 10 percentile of Thai food I've had. Quaint place as long as it's not busy. The staff is friendly, helpful and courteous.

I do wish they had a kids menu (hotdog, chicken tenders, or other).

We just tried Orchid for the first time, and we loved it. The Kapow shrimp were fantastic, as well as the fried rice. A+++

A...MAZING! Literally I'm so sorry I'm JUST now trying this place. It is THE BEST Thai food. And not just in this area but yes!!!! Like I wish I'd never given 5 stars before bc now I know 5/5!!!!
