Reviews
The Pad Thai with Tofu, Thai iced tea, Pad Woon Sen with tofu, Mango Sticky Rice & Peach Sticky Rice was all delicious!
The atmosphere was quaint and clean.
Staff was helpful and friendly.
Lots of free parking and is handicap accessible.
What a terrific little Thai restaurant !
Also the Cheesecake minis said 4 on the menu, but I only received 3 and not even the ones I chose.
I’d find a different restaurant unless you want to get ripped off.
1. Vegetable Vietnamese Pho with Angus Beef (What I ordered) $16.50
What I got instead:
• A bowl of Tom Yum soup, not pho
• The broth was sour, bland, and oddly spicy, with none of the clean, aromatic flavors that Vietnamese pho usually has
• The vegetables included carrots, broccoli, baby corn, and red bell peppers, which do not belong in pho
• The rice noodles were soggy and mushy to the point where they broke apart when trying to lift them with chopsticks — completely overcooked and unpleasant
• No distinct pho seasoning, no herbs, no proper broth aroma, and no resemblance to the dish I ordered
This wasn’t even a “different interpretation” of pho — it was simply not pho at all.
2. Shrimp Pad Thai (What I ordered) $18
What I got instead:
• The exact same soggy rice noodles used in the soup
• Stir-fried in a sour, spicy Thai sauce that had nothing to do with pad thai
• No peanut flavor, no sweetness, no tamarind, no balance — none of the signature elements of pad thai
• Only a few pieces of onion leaves, zero bean sprouts, no egg, and barely any shrimp
• Overall flavor was bland, sour, and completely unlike pad thai
This dish was so far from what pad thai should taste like that it felt like a completely different entrée mislabeled as pad thai.
Overall Experience
Both dishes tasted bland, sour, and poorly prepared. The noodles were unacceptably soggy, and neither dish matched what was ordered or what was expected based on the menu. It honestly felt like the wrong items were sent, or the kitchen substituted ingredients without any regard to accuracy.
For the price and expectation of authentic Thai/Vietnamese dishes, this was a major letdown. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves one so future customers know what to expect.
I would not recommend Jai Dee Thai Kitchen based on this order.
I’m out of food and the money…. Please pay attention to your orders…
I will consider changing my review if the store fixes this because it’s not right. I want my money back.
I ordered on door dash today so you can find my order and credit me – under the name Riley b
