Golden Thai Cuisine Orem Utah

This is one place I love to order from again and again. I get their golden curry every time. Literally the best ever! I wish I knew the recipe, it’s just that good. It does feel a bit more mild than it used to be, and while I kinda miss that extra kick, I don’t mind the change.

The best Thai food I’ve ever had, I dream of this pad Thai almost every night and the service is fantastic!

Amazing Thai food! Our group goes once a week! Always delicious you won't be disappointed! Get wild and ask for a level 20!

Wow! We had the pineapple curry, Penang curry, pineapple fried rice and pad Thai. We eat a lot of Thai food. This was the best we have had. Great service!

Casual dining Thai restaurants with the same collection of curries and plates practically line the major roadways. Sometimes it's hard to tell them apart. Golden Thai definitely ups the ante. The wife had her standard dish to test the waters. The most popular dish around Massaman Curry. The sauce was more unctuous. The flavors a bit deeper. I had the Pad Nam Prik Phow. It's my go to dish to see if they can keep the sugar down and the spice up. They did a pretty good job of it. I had the spice level 8. It matches pretty close to an 8 at other places around town. I'll need to kick it up a bit next time to see if they keep the balance working. The veg was al dente. The sauce pretty balanced. We had the lunch special. Another time, we'll do the full entrees. Like many other places, you get a pot sticker/dumpling with the meal. Unlike other places, it's nicely fried and completely filled with nice filling. It is significantly better than any other place around town. The wife got some green tea. Surprisingly, it was a tea bag in a styrofoam cup. It came with a glass of ice in case it needed cooling. It wasn't all that hot to start with. Not hot enough to properly brew the tea -- if it was actual leaves and not a bag. They are trying to walk into better than casual dining. You can make a reservations through the website. That could be real handy. I'm still deciding if it's as good as it gets, but it's pretty close. We'll see what happens. One thing that's happening at this time is an awful lot of people are filing their first or second review ever and gushing a little too much. When there's 25 not recommended and only 2 recommended reviews, that usually means a place being a little too aggressive suggesting they give good reviews. That said Yelp was never mentioned while I was there, and we spent a reasonable amount of time talking to one of the family that owns the place. Whatever the reason, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. None of that changes that everything else was a step above.
