Review from 11/24/23
We came as a relatively large group with extended family, and were seated quickly later at night.
For appetizers, we ordered the Crab Rangoon, Wonton Soup, Lemongrass Soup, Chive Cake, and Green Papaya Salad. The Crab Rangoons were fantastic – creamy and flavorful, with a solid, crunchy exterior and a sweet sauce that cut through the richness of the filling. The soups were fine. On the other hand, the Chive Cake was good, with a gooey interior and crispy outside paired with a salty sauce.
For the entrees, were ordered a beef fried rice which was good; a shrimp fried rice that had large shrimp; the drunken noodles with shrimp, which were slightly overcooked and a little mushy; and the panang curry with chicken which was the table favorite alongside the beef fried, being sweet, but flavorful and creamy, and perfect alongside the plain white rice.
The mango sticky rice was pretty bad, in all honesty – the rice a little too mushy and not particularly warm, and what seemed like canned mango which was pretty flavorless with a strange texture.

I really wish there was an option to give 4.5 stars. Had dinner with my friend here based on a recommendation and we quite enjoyed it!! The restaurant isn’t much of a looker, but the food is tasty and the servers were very friendly. The fried green beans were ultra crispy with plenty of sauce, although the sauce could have been more flavorful. The pad thai was a huge portion and had a very strong tamarind flavor, but it was tasty, although maybe lacking a bit in authenticity. Overall, decent Thai food and experience

I’m going to say overall, I really enjoyed the food. I ordered the red curry with tofu and modified the vegetables and it was very good. My go to place is Little Spice in Hanover and this is the dish I always get. Lemongrass too was comparable on the flavor BUT the portion was a lot smaller and the price was higher. But I enjoyed mine. The 2 people I was with didn’t seem to like theirs as much. One had a salad with beef and the other chicken pad thai. I didn’t try either, as I don’t eat meat. We shared an appetizer, a crispy onion thing and it was good. The Thai iced tea was way too sweet for me. The service was good. Our guy was nice, answered a ton of questions, and let us take our time talking. We sat outside and it was nice. I’m definitely going back. I just wish it was a but more food for the price. I usually end up with leftovers at my other spot.

Signature cocktails were very good. Cucumber Basil Smash is highly recommended. Duck curry was delicious, as was the crispy chive cake appetizer. Excellent meal. The dinner music was modern yet quiet.

Service is great. Interior is well decorated and clean. The only issue was the food. Ordered the Tom Yum and it was bitter with a vinegar taste. Sent it back and got the WonTon soup and that was miles better! Ordered the pad thai and that….left some thing to be desired. Not a lot of flavor to be tasted in the dish.

Once again, Lemongrass 2 is disappointing.
It used to be great but lack of attention to food prep and plating is poor.
Several months ago I had hair in my take out food right on top when opening the container.
Today, the take out portion was very undersized… didn’t even cover the bottom of the box and the carton of rice was only half full. So sad to see it go downhill.

This is my first time having Thai food however I felt it was very good. I had pineapple rice amd it was very well flavored. The chicken was tender and was not spicy. I would try other foods next time.

I had a great time at a dinner for the support of oncology research. The service was shockingly quick and all the servers were very friendly. I had the pleasure of trying a few appetizers of which the crab rangoons were my favorite. For dinner I had the Ka Pow chicken which was pretty good. The flavors of the food were very unique. An interesting blend of sweet, sour, salt, citrus, herbs and spices. The fried ice cream for dessert was delicious. It reminded me of a coconut churro stick stuffed with ice cream and drizzled with caramel and chocolate. Yummy! After dinner, they did a cooking class! They showed us how to make one of their curry dishes. Bob, the manager was very friendly and professional. I had a great experience and the ambience was a plus.
