"I love Thai Winchester! My husband and I visit Thai Winchester nearly every week. 1. The restaurant is clean and cozy, and the servers are kind and helpful. 2. If you go for lunch on a week day, you get a fried veggie crispy roll and a small side salad. I don't think the dressing on the salad is vegan (it looks cream-based), though, but I'm not sure. (I've been there for lunch on a week day only once 3. As far as appetizers go, I've had the fried tofu (it's nothing special it's exactly what it says: fried tofu), summer rolls (good if you love basil and my go-to appetizer, veggie crispy rolls. The rolls are the small, super crispy kind. I love them! 4. I've had most of the vegetarian entrees: LOVE: -cashew nuts LIKE: -kra pow -stir-fried ginger -red curry -green curry -panang curry -pad thai (good, but only if you like a very sweet pad thai) -thai fried rice (I've had this twice. It was amazingly flavorful the first time, but bland the second time) DISLIKE: -pad phed pha (this is a dish with peppercorns, and the peppercorns really take over. Order only if you LOVE peppercorns, because that's all you'll be able to taste) -massaman curry (but that could just be because I'm not into yellow curry I've never had this dish anywhere else This is my favorite restaurant in Winchester, and if you haven't already, I encourage you to visit! NOTE: We've also visited Thai Winchester II (only once), and we did not enjoy it enough to return. The restaurant is smaller and the food wasn't as good. I'd rather make the short drive to the walking mall rather than visit Thai Win II again. It may have just been a bad day for them, though."

"I’m truly disappointed to share this review, but my experience reflects how poorly this restaurant treats its guests. We had five unfortunate encounters in just one night. My friends and I arrived hoping to enjoy a meal together. Here’s what happened: 1. We requested a table for nine at the reception. The staff initially checked and said it was fine, but then he stumbled and started acting strangely after speaking to someone else. His response: He asked for our IDs to confirm our ages. A few of us had them, but we were not planning to drink alcohol anyway. Then, he informed us that without IDs, there was no table available. 2. We asked if we could at least get some water. His response: "Sorry, we cannot serve you anything." 3. We inquired about placing a takeout order. He replied: "I'm sorry, but you can't be in the restaurant without IDs. You’ll need to order from outside, which is all we can do for you." 4. The worst part came when we decided to wait for our cab under their covered outdoor seating area, as it was raining. The staff came outside and told us: "We cannot allow you to be here. You need to move outside." 5. We explained that it was raining and we just needed a bit of cover while we waited. Their response was: "Yes, but you can wait on the curbside." I have never felt so insulted in my life. It was disheartening to see such disregard for customers from a place like Tavern. I truly hope they reevaluate their approach to hospitality."
