"Upon arrival, our waitress was friendly and quick to take our orders. We both opted for the Chicken Pad Thai in the lunch portion. Much to our surprise, the food arrived at our table just four minutes later. For anyone familiar with authentic Thai or Japanese cuisine, you know that freshly prepared dishes typically require more time to make. Our first impression was that the portion size was quite generous for a lunch offering. However, there was an unusual aroma coming from the dish. I wouldn’t go so far as to say it smelled spoiled, but it was a scent that didn't match what we expected from this type of food. When we tasted the Pad Thai, we were taken aback by its flavor, which was overwhelmingly reminiscent of noodles mixed with ketchup, fish sauce, and sugar. When the server checked on us, I inquired whether the dish was prepared traditionally. She assured me that they only use authentic ingredients and claimed that this is how the dish would taste if we were in Thailand. This was surprising information to me, as our experiences with Thai and Japanese food in various U.S. cities have led us to believe the traditional dishes generally have a consistent taste. However, she didn’t offer us an alternative dish. After this conversation, we started to worry about the two specialty rolls we had ordered: the Beverly Hills Roll and the Hot Mama. Although the rolls were beautifully presented, they were unfortunately not fresh and appeared to be pre-made. The cream cheese in the Beverly Hills roll was nearly impossible to chew, and the "white fish" in the Hot Mama did not resemble any white fish I have ever tasted. The server noticed that we had hardly touched our food and asked why. I honestly shared our disappointment, to which she replied, “I’m sorry you don’t like our food, but your tastes seem more suited for those American places.” I found that amusing. We’ve enjoyed meals at both upscale establishments and small, family-run restaurants with Thai and Japanese staff, consistently receiving excellent food. I won’t be returning to Amazing Thai. Save your hard-earned money and consider dining at Kikos on University Drive just north of 595 or Japan Inn on University Drive just south of Sunrise Blvd instead; both are significantly better options."

"I would like to say this little place is a gem. It is so clean and snazzy. they have the fried shrimp tempura appetizer which is delish, the breading is just enough that it isn't too heavy and u can enjoy the taste of shrimp and breading. We usually get the hurricane which has salmon and crab which is yummy, we ask for seaweed on the outside which makes it easier to grab without it breaking apart. We've only been to this location twice. The first time was a great experience the sushi was on point, the shrimp tempura appetizer was perfect and the beer fresh and crisp, the second it was not as amazing as the first but still a positive experience. The beer was warm and the waitress got our order wrong, so we had to wait a little longer, the way the sushi was wrapped was very flimsy. We also ordered the steak noodles and it was EH.... totally not worth the 22 dollars we were charged, the noodles were sticky and under cooked, the steak barely had any flavor and the amount was small for the price, I'll stick to the sushi (see photos below) They have a sushi bar but nobody can sit at it since it's small and being used for take out delivery orders (they are very busy) . The decor is amazing, they even have a TV in the restroom! All in all, would I go back? Yes I would, is it a little pricey, yes... not only are u paying for the food but you are paying for the decor, the service etc. What made it worthwhile to me? the manager was on the floor at ALL times, he was running food and helping the servers and the to go orders because it was very busy, not many managers do that. The first time we were there he came to our table to ask about the food, we mentioned the breading on the shrimp, that was 7 months ago, the second time we went which was last week August 11th he came up to our table to ask us how everything was and remembered us mentioning the comment we made about the breaded shrimp!!! I was totally shocked, I did not expect that.... especially with so many people going in and out of that restaurant I would not expect him to remember us much less our comments on the food since we really aren't regulars. A manager who pays attention to comments and suggestions gets an A+ in my book and a return visit from us. Keep up the great work, I wish all locations were like this one!"
