The food was Amazing! I was eating for days. The Drunken noodle was made with the fresh rice noodles (if you know, you know) not the dried and rehydrated ones; which is how you know it's legit. And, the container was filled to the brim, I added extra veggies but it would have been a lot either way.
The Herb soup (tom kha) was incredibly flavorful. There was fresh lemon grass and lime leaves in the soup, which means they make it fresh on house.
The Sampler was wonderful. Honestly, half of that and a soup is a meal! I wish I lived closer, this is some of the best Thai food I've had, and for the price it can't be beat.

Order from here all the time. Portion size to price is soooo much better than most other Thai places. They have the proper ingredients (like the fresh wide noodles), and tasty dishes. I always use Pad see-ew as my measurement for how good a place is...and these guys more than pass the test! Reminiscent of my fav Thai places in Seattle!

Thai Orchard is the best Asian spot with authentic flavors. The Crispy spring rolls (4) taste fresh and aren't all soggy like most places, the Basil fried rice is flavorful and so delish with the perfect kick of heat and its alot of rice! The Chicken wings with french fries (6) were good too. They have one of the best mambo sauces in th city!That Thai basil sauce is yummy too!Steamed dumplings (5) are always a must and I truly appreciate how the packaged my half & half with a separate cup of ice. you can tell they make it homemaede with real lemon too. I will be getting all these things again!

Amazing Siam Fried Rice!!! I ordered extra shrimp. The rice is the best I've ever had. The seasoning is to DIE FOR!! The rice is moist as well as the shrimp. The shrimp are cooked to perfection - very moist! I've already told many friends about Thai Orchid Kitchen. I fed my family of 4 with one entre. Thank you for the Siam rice.

First time ordering and Hands down the best Thai I've had in DC. Been here for 9 years and tried a few spots. The Drunken noodle was delicious. The portion size is wonder and the crab was fresh. It has a nice spice level too but I'd like a little more... should be an option in the app but a great medium spicy nonetheless. The Steamed dumplings (5)and Peanut sauce were also really good.
