Indochine Restaurant

This place is so beautiful!! Immediately walking in, I felt transported to some gentrified southeast Asian amalgamation— and I actually love it. The outdoors seating is immaculate and I was surprised how cool it was despite the warm temperature. The bathroom is so eclectic and quirky. You can really tell that a lot of thought was put into designing this restaurant. The service is amazing, but the food is a little subpar. I was hoping for more flavor in my pho, but the Yum Yum Chicken was superb.

I write honest reviews. My husband had seen something about the huts and the experience of eating within the Asian garden with statues, etc. As a Top Google Guide I had offers from other restaurants in Wilmington but I didn’t want to let my husband down because he really wanted to try this place. After 5 hours in a car—I was starving & exhausted. We met Chris & he found us seating in a hut outside; it was kind of neat at first, and all seemed okay until the flies found our food. As a scientist, flies freak me out! So that oscillating fan they had running above us made little difference. They were landing on everything. I spent the entire time swinging my hands trying to swipe them away. Ugh! I ate as quickly as possible. My husband and son both gave their opinion that the food was just okay. The thing is, we go out a lot, we sample from all kinds of chefs, we love spices and flavors but natural and often grass-fed & even organic or farm to table. Also our son’s jasmine tea was cold. We didn’t bother saying anything to the waitress. We just nodded that everything was good because we’re polite. Overall, I’m glad we tried this place at least once. Mainly because I loved the Asian garden theme. It’s too bad we didn’t meet the general manager. I’ve never been to a place as a Google contributor and not had management come and introduce themselves. I was also disappointed in some of the employees who just didn’t seem nice. No excuse me when they walked by, no greetings. Nothing. People did improve their attitude once they found out I was writing a review. I think with tip we dropped around $100–and weren’t really impressed. Sort of a waste for us as foodies, we expect more. Candidly, Josephine Local Guide

Amazing food! Wonderful vibe and ambiance and fantastic service. We dined tonight for the first time and everything was absolutely perfect. The appetizer sampler was scrumptious and the entrees were delicious. Sat outside near the pond and enjoyed all of the garden area and decor. Our server was delightful.

My partner and I drove from Myrtle Beach to try this place out. Somehow it popped up on his screen and loving Thai food, we decided to give it a try. The pictures and reviews got us hooked and let me just say, it was VERY nice and EVERYTHING the pictures promised. The atmosphere, food and Audrey our hostess was top notch. Although, it's a 1 1/2 hour drive, we will DEFINITELY be coming back. IT WAS FANTASTIC!!

First time here - service was excellent, server was efficient and friendly, food and drink (shrimp pad Thai and Red Lotus martini) was perfect! Reasonably priced and large portions. My only complaint is that I left my to-go container on the table :/ I will return to Wilmington just to eat here - next time outside.

This is quite the vibe, the entire place is beautifully decorated in a southeast Asian flair and it’s enough to draw a crowd alone, but add in some tasty dishes, and it’s no wonder this place is packed all the time. I’ve had this place on my list for a little over a year and finally found myself in the area. Even at 5pm, there was an hour wait. We checked out the cute store they had and picked up some trinkets. Upon getting a text that our table was ready, we were shown to a nice spot inside where we could appreciate all the decor. I will say, although outside looked wonderful, it was definitely too chilly that night. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the crab Rangoon and lettuce wraps, as well as two cocktails. Everything was good, but don’t expect to be blown away by the food alone, this is more about the entire experience. Our waiter was laid back and attentive. After our meal we decided to walk to grounds and take some pictures of all the art. I would suggest giving this place a go as it’s hard to be disappointed, but be ready for a bit of a wait during dinner time.

We waited for 1 hour to get a table. However, it was worth the wait. The food is excellent. We ordered the fried and steamed shitake mushroom dumplings, yellow curry with tofu. Both dishes tasted very good. The staff was courteous and the atmosphere was really good.

This is one of my all time favorite restaurants and I always eat her when I’m in Wilmington. I love the magical outdoor spaces. We once had my birthday dinner outside in the garden here - a night I will never forget. Today we enjoyed watching the koi fish out front. I always order the massoman curry - it is so delicious. My son got red curry and loved it. My husband got bang bang shrimp sub. We also devoured the appetizer sampler - chicken satay and dumplings were my favorite but it was all so good. It was all outstanding as usual. We got a piece of the famous coconut cake to go. Our server was so very respectful and attentive. Never had a bad experience or meal here.

We went last night to Indochine and it was quite busy for a Monday night. The food was delicious, (Pad se u and Yum Yum Chicken). The waitress made suggestions to help with our selections. The restaurant is worn but elaborately decorated with Asian references. Great service, great food, and excellent prices. We will definitely revisit on our next trip to Wilmington!

One of the most authentic Thai restaurants I've been to, they even have the queen's photo up and a copy of her crown. This is what I would call an "experience restaurant" and there's only two that I know of in NC, the other being the Angus Barn in Raleigh. This restaurant immerses you into the Thai culture and environment. The most coveted seating is the little huts outback that are named after cities in Thailand...expect to wait to get one!! Outside is by far my favorite place to eat here. Last time I went I was seated by the serene koi pond. There is typically a wait for seats year round as this place is extremely good and thus extremely popular. The Thai food is exactly how you would find it if you were in Thailand, the same dishes and flavor profiles. However, the portions are a bit Americanized, we fat y'all, so they are a bit bigger. If you have a normal appetite expect to take some food with you. If you're big boned, savor every last bite and enjoy it while it lasts. The Pad Thai with shrimp with medium heat is my goto here. It is perfect. The crab angels are my favorite appetizer but I alternate between it and the banana blossom salad. The mango sticky rice is probably the best I've had at any Thai restaurant, you can't go wrong with it...next level. Service is top notch too. You will have to wait but just get yourself a drink at the bar and walk around and look at all the different areas and items. Chill yo, no need to get mad because your table isn't ready on time. People tend to sit longer at the tables outside because it's such a calming and relaxing place to eat. New for 2024 they have a little gift shop out front, go check it out. Best place in Wilmington if you ask me.

I learned about Indochine on Instagram and I must say it has lived up to the hype! The whole experience was amazing. We ordered multiple different appetizers and main dishes because we wanted to try everything. Be sure to come hungry because everything on the menu is amazing! From the dumplings to the cocktails everything was top notch. All of this paired with great service in a beautiful restaurant made for a great night!

This place is a must do experience in Wilmington. Get there early first beautiful garden seating! When I say early, I mean they line up (we were 45 minutes early) before they open! The food was delicious (we love Asian food though), drinks were good, and our server was delightful- but honestly it's all about the scenery.

Incredible experience at Indochine! The staff was so friendly and attentive. The wait was originally 1 hour 15 minutes, it turned out to be around 45 minutes, enough time to grab a drink or 2 at the bar. The food was beyond this world, so yammi and I will definitely be back! We had summer roles, the jungle curry and the green curry! We had tofu and chicken with our curries but probably could have done without any protein since the sauces are so delicious without anything else. I wish we had time for dessert. We were so full but also couldn't stop eating. We will be back to enjoy the ambiance outside during warm weather! But inside wasn't too bad either, it felt very cozy and homey.

Indochine is a MUST try while in Wilmington and make sure you arrive early because there will be a line! I wish we had gotten a table outside so we could eat near the koi pond but inside is just as pretty. Our server was helpful and quick with our orders. The appetizer sampler is perfect to get a taste of everything and a good size for 2-4 people. We tried the Roasted Duck Red Curry & the Pad See U for entrees and they were full of flavor and we had plenty of leftovers. I would highly suggest sitting outside for the full experience and can't wait to go back!

This place is famous especially for its exotic ambiance...and it was already bustling as it opened at 11 am. After touring the place, we chose to be seated outside....luckily by the Koi fish pond. As expected, the ambiance was indeed stunning...It really felt as if I was in Thailand! Now the foods! I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai and this cocktail, "Knockout". Well, here's where I have to dock a star. I ordered Shrimp, but ended up with Chicken Pad Thai. It was really good though...and SO plentiful! Also, this drink "Knockout" was NOT a knockout. It barely had any alcohol in it...very weak. Oh Well. I also tried this Fried Calamari, and this Imperial Pineapple Fried Rice that my friend swore by...and they were both delish! Both entree dishes (Pad Thai and Fried Rice) were really tasty, and the portions were HUGE...so much so that I boxed more than half to go. Also, surprisingly, everything was quite affordably priced. As amazing as it was outside, I will say that there were one too many insects hovering our table. Think maybe next time I'll vote to eat indoors. Service was a bit sketchy...in that they needed a few more waiters-waitresses. Eventually I did get a pretty good waitress, who was very friendly and did her best...but again, I think she was quite overloaded with tables. Truly, their lavish ambiance was 6+, but the wrong food (Chicken Pad Thai, whereas I ordered Shrimp Pad Thai?), and the weak cocktail was enough to sink the ratings to 4. Despite a few misses, I still loved this restaurant... definitely enough to return, hopefully with my husband next time. Am hoping things improve because I'd LOVE to give this place 5 stars.

We heard a lot of buzz about Indochine, so when we visited Wilmington, it was at the top of our list. The wait was decently long for a Friday night (about 40 minutes). We ordered the Appetizer Sampler as our starter, and the Pork Jungle Curry, Hokkien Hot Noodles, and Pad Ki Mao to share in our table of 3. Everything in the Appetizer Sampler was pretty solid, but the standouts were the shrimp goi cuon and the crab angels. We were pleasantly surprised by the huge portions of our entrees! The Pork Jungle Curry had a healthy assortment of veggies and a good amount of pork. The curry itself was also super flavorful and had a kick of heat (we ordered it at a spicy level). We loved the spice of the Hokkien Hot Noodles as well as the variety of proteins. Lastly, the Pad Ki Mao was also a great choice and had a subtle sweet flavor that went well with a squeeze of fresh lime on top. All in all, every single one of the entrees delivered! We came into Indochine excited but with slightly lowered expectations (we didn't expect great Thai/Viet food in Wilmington). However, we were pleasantly surprised by the authenticity and flavors of the dishes. They also made great leftovers! Indochine lived up to the hype -- we definitely recommend checking them out!

Great ambiance and service!!! I had not been to Indochine For at least five years, but the food, the presentation and the atmosphere was absolutely the same!!! Everything was quick and delicious, beautiful presentation and great service!! One day we will have to make a reservation to eat out in the tiny little hearts over the small river

Why is one of my favorite restaurants in the world located so far away from NYC??? I swear, Indochine needs a second location in the city stat! If they did, I would be there frequently. Hell, I'd fly to Wilmington just to hit this place up. Can someone buy me a private jet? Any trip to Indochine would not be complete without a Tiki drink! And if you visit on a nice day when you can go outside and enjoy your drink in their giant, lush Tiki Bar and Japanese-style garden, you will be even more pleased. The drinks are strong and yummy, and the view outside is incredible. As for food, you can't wait go wrong with anything here. My favorites include the fried pork egg rolls, Green Curry, and Drunken Noodles! But you can order anything and will be happy (and likely have extra for the next day because their portions after huge and satisfying). As for atmosphere, the inside is spacious and inviting (maybe not as inviting as outside, which is a showstopper), and the Asian decor helps create an authentic ambiance! If you are near Wilmington, check this place out. And, yes, there will be a LONG wait... so grab a drink, walk around, and patiently wait for a life-changing dining experience!! Final thought: The best waitress in all the world is Elizabeth!! Ask for her.

Indochine is wonderful!! Beautiful venue with indoor, outdoor, and an extended dining room. Parking is tight but onsite parking is available and there is a cute gift shop next door if you're waiting for a table. Highly recommend the Chicken Pad Thai, Chicken Fried Rice, Pho, and Chicken Satay! Everything on the menu is delicious.

Very unique restaurant. Multiple indoor and outdoor areas with gardens. Large menu with countless options. Affordable drinks and food. A great overall value.

My to go from DoorDash Lastnight but not good at all. I ordered the dumpling sampler and the pho. I asked for the Thai chili oil and didn't receive it. The pho was so bland and the meatballs and beef were not good. What was actually not good at all was the dumpling sampler. They just threw them in a soup container. It was so unappealing. They tasted like wontons from a take out Chinese restaurant. I have been a fan of Indochne since it opened and this was not up to par.

This place was an amazing find! Located at the end of a neighborhood with a bit of a funky parking lot, this restaurant is unique in everything that it offers; from the decor and seating down to the meals. Think traditional Thai food with a bit of a twist. The portions are humongous for the price and the flavor is outstanding. Definitely recommend sharing a dish if you're not too hungry or planning on taking home tons of leftovers. This place is clearly a local favorite as the line was out the door, and they have an entire building dedicated for to-go orders. We tried the sample appetizer so we could get a little bit of everything alongside the Buddha fest in a nest meal to share and we were FULL. The crunchy noodles in all the "in a nest" dishes is something I've never had before and was so good! The noodles really are crunchy but as a good flavor/texture to the meal and soften if you let them soak in the sauce. It was so good and very unique for the flavor profile! I would definitely go back here if I'm ever in the area and try a more traditional dish such as the curry or pad Thai. Worst part of the experience was choosing which meal to get! Definitely recommend!

We arrived around 4:40pm on a Friday and there already was a line. By 5pm when it opened it was pretty long. We were lucky to get a hut in the garden. It was gorgeous. I loved that it had two fans. It was a warm November night no it was perfect. Our server was great and helpful. We all enjoyed our meals. We ordered pineapple rice, red curry, steak and peppers and Hokkien hot noodles. Everything wa

One of the coolest fusion joints I've ever seen! The back patio and garden are spectacular. MUST SEE - night lights offer a picture perfect backdrop. Service was phenomenal - Chad (bartender) was conversational and lively. He got the spice level right. My date loves it with . Well they make it Thai hot(ter)++ great portion sizes and quality food for the $$. High value index. recommend for a date night, be ready to wait, they don't take reservations and it's popular. Sit out back and relax in the little Asian villages and drink until your table is ready.

Awesome views and vibes in the outdoor seating in the back. We waited about 20 min on a thurs evening at 7 since they don't take reservations! I'm thankful we got to sit outside since it was clearly much better than inside. They had a koi pond a tranquil waterfall and many decorations! They had several items on the menu but we loved the panang curry the best. It was spicy but not too spicy. Ryan was our server, he was good, it just took a long time to get our food ~ 45 min. Overall, the atmosphere made the experience! The food was above average Thai food with many options. I'd recommend it!

We recently dined in for dinner on a Friday night. We got there at 5:07 and it was already quite busy but we were seated right away! Our server was Ryan and he was fantastic. He greeted us and promptly took our drink and appetizer order. We had the appetizer sampler and an order of pork dumplings. We all had different noodle dishes, I had the pad Thai with chicken which was fantastic and my husband had the Hokkien hot noodles, recommended by Ryan, which was by far our favorite it was fantastic! We took home the coconut cake and the coconut ice cream is absolutely amazing. We will definitely be back and hope to sit outside during the warmer months!

In all my research of North Carolina and Wilmington specifically, there was one restaurant that was recommended every single time. That was none other than Indochine!! My mom and i love Thai food so we knew this would be perfect for our day in town. No reservations, first come first serve. We arrived about an hour after opening at 5, the outside private tables were all filled up by then and on a 45 minute wait. inside seating was available immediately! Jason was our server and he was so helpful answering all of my many questions. The restaurant is beautiful, colorful and welcoming. The portions are humungous, the table next to me was passing around all of their entrees to share at their table because there was so much food. The Saigon Pork Eggrolls are a must - tons of flavor packed in those little things. Great prices, great food, great atmosphere. Cant wait to come back

This was a really neat place! Loved the decorations and the outside garden/seating area. The seating area was closed but we could still walk around and explore it. We got the dumpling and appetizer sampler which had a "crab angel" included. That was delicious! We got the Happy Asian Melody; it was so flavorful and the meat was tender. A friend got the mango sticky rice for dessert which was so so good! Our waitress was super sweet and helpful. We got there pretty much right when it opened for dinner, since they don't take reservations. By the time we left, it was very full in there!

Everything about this restaurant is amazing. Decor, ambiance, service, and the food. Don't remember the name of what I got but flavor, and just the right amount of spice did it for me. Had enough left over for the next day. Drinks are on point as well. When I'm in the Wilmington area I will definitely be back.

Delicious pork banh mi sandwich in an awesome and authentic setting! Great service and everything was delicious. It was rainy but we checked out the patio and felt transported. Make sure to check out the cute gift shop too. Lots of neat stuff. If I lived here I would be here all the time. Awesome place and highly recommend.

This used to be my favorite restaurant in Wilmington but something has changed. The food has gone downhill either because they have different chefs or they are trying to cut corners or both. Either way, this restaurant is nothing like it used to be. So when you read other reviews of Indochine, you may want to go by only the reviews made in the last 12 months. I was there for lunch on the last Friday in August of 2024. I ordered the Bun Thit Nuong with pork, which is exactly what I've ordered for years. The menu says that dish contains cold rice noodles, shredded lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, basil, pickled vegetables, cilantro with a 'traditional' dressing and topped with crushed peanuts. For some reason, the lunch portion of this dish is slightly different than the description on the dinner menu. But it was my understanding the only difference was the portion size. I ordered the lunch portion of Bun Thit Nuong with pork. What I got was a dish piled high with Romaine lettuce, roughly torn into large chunks. On top of this was a small amount of noodles and a small amount of pork with about 2-3 tiny slivers of carrots. No basil, no cucumbers, no pickled vegetables in sight. Not a single piece of any of those. The lettuce was piled up underneath the Bun Thit Nuong as a filler to make the portion look bigger than it was. And there was none of the shredded vegetables that I used to get in the past. Just a bunch of giant lettuce that looked like the chef had grabbed from a salad bar. The attached picture shows the remaining lettuce after I had already eaten the rest of the lettuce and the noodles and pork. I ordered two spring rolls to go with the dish. Instead of bringing out two normal spring rolls on the side, they served me a bunch of chopped up, Tater-Tot looking things sitting right on top of my Bun Thit Nuong. These so-called spring rolls were terrible. They neither tasted nor looked like spring rolls. They seemed like some dried out frozen food item that I could not even identify. They had a thick, egg roll type wrapper instead of a thin spring roll rapper, and I could not even identify what was in the middle of them. Whatever it was it was bland and tasteless; just some cheap filler. They were also cold. I picked them off and couldn't even eat them. When I left the restaurant I asked the hostess if Indochine was under different management. She said it was not, and she seemed very annoyed that I asked. Which made me think I was not the only person who had asked this question. If they have not changed management, then maybe they just have a swinging door of new chefs or maybe they are cutting corners. I just know that the one dish I went there for is no longer any good. And sadly, Indochine is no longer anything special.

This was absolutely amazing. Came for a lot. Audrey helped me create my lunch menu which was absolutely fabulous. All of her recommendations were 10 out of 10. I absolutely absolutely recommend coming over and having lunch for dinner. They do not do reservations so check the times and get here as soon as they open. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing. The back area takes you into a tranquil space that will definitely add to your overall dining experience.

I got the basil beef fried rice. It was not what it's supposed to be like. I didn't expect the basil beef rice to be a farm of bell peppers. There was no fried egg on top. Service was very rushed I felt like they wanted us out there. The ambiance was too much. Felt possessed in there.

Absolutely fabulous service, delicious food and large portions! The Ambiance is hands down the most unique In Wilmington. Hands down one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in the country!

After several trips to Indochine, it is definitely our go to spot every time we are in Wilmington. Always expect a wait. Always expect a packed parking lot. Indochine cuisine is legit. When you eat here, you are getting authentic Vietnamese and Thai cuisine. At my most recent visit we tried several items on the menu that we never had before. The appetizer sampler is always a must. We were able to comfortably share this appetizer between six and everyone get a sample of something. The star dish this visit was the Hokkien hot noodles. Everyone at the table love this dish. The Thai green curry was the next fan favorite. The spice level was spicy but not too spicy for the nibblings. We even got their chili paste and chili oil brought to our table. These two sauces added so much flavor and heat to all of the dishes. Our server this visit was Jenn. She was so helpful throughout our dining experience. I have never had a bad customer service experience here. If you are in Wilmington, you have to go to Indochine at least once. You must also eat outside in the private hut at least once. Indochine 7 Wayne Dr Wilmington, NC 28403 (Review 3 of 2024 and 803 overall)

I rated it 2 stars because I've never been willing to wait 2 hours for a table since they don't accept reservations. I only visit Wilmington once or twice a year and have never, not once, been able to be seated due to the restaurant being packed like a can of sardines, even on a Monday. I believe the rave reviews are justified and the atmosphere and zen garden are very appealing. Great ambience if you can find a table. I've even tried ordering from the bar, but with only one bartender and every seat taken and a line out the back door to the garden just to order a drink, that too is wasted effort. I've given up even trying. In the future I'll just go to a McDonald's. Sorry to be so negative but it is what it is ... and what it isn't. :-(

My group wanted to try this place after seeing it on social media. The ambiance is gorgeous but plan to arrive early. We came about an hour and half before opening and there was already a line. There is also no cover l/ shade so we used an umbrella, I recommend bringing an umbrella and fan in the summer or else you will be baking in the parking lot. We had a party of 7 and didn't have to wait for a table. We were sat right next to the koi pond. Like I said before, the ambiance was beautiful but I would say the food is ok. Everyone enjoyed their dishes but they weren't anything spectacular. The mocktails were sadly watered down and it took awhile to receive our meals since they were busy. I recommend maybe visiting in the fall when it isn't so hot and you can truly enjoy the atmosphere.

Waited in the queue to get the authentic experience, but was bummed to learn the huts in the garden were not available the day we went. Still was awesome to see how uniquely decorated the restaurant was and how it transported you to a small Asian village. The food was okay, but you go here for the experience.

1500 Yelp reviews, and averaging 4 1/2 stars, should tell you that Indochine lives up to the hype. The food here is great. It's not good, its great. Indochine is very well known and extremely popular. Not a lot that I can add to what has already been written. I will say, make this place a must visit for either lunch or dinner. Just a note, no reservations accepted unless you have a large party. It is first come, first serve. Dinner line begins forming at 4, and they open at 5. We got there at 5, and had to wait in line for ~10 minutes just to get our name on the list. Then waited 45 minutes to get the table. Trust me, it is worth the wait. Quick Summary - Food is excellent. Highly recommend the Green Curry. - Appetizer sampler contains 7 items and is a lot of food. Recommend. - They do NOT take reservations. - Service was excellent - Large cocktail menu - No draft beer but lots of beers in cans/bottles. - Decent wine selection.

All good! No worries Thai / Vietnamese INDOCINE Friendly place and people .. Food is of the chain

Outstanding Pad Thai and curry dishes. The service is friendly and quick. Even though this is an amazing eatery with beautifully decorated interior and exterior dining areas, the cocktails are so amazing and visually delightful that they just might upstage the vivid far east theme. Immerse yourself in a relaxing garden with koi pond, lanterns, and far east statuary for an enchanting dining experience.

This was a cool place, but the food that we got was average. It wasn't bad by any means, but it was your average pan-Asian place. Granted, we got Chinese food (hokkien hot noodles and Buddha's feast in a nest) and it was good and abundant portions. Though this is supposed to give off Thai-Vietnamese emphasis, the menu is pretty evenly split between different cuisines. We went right at opening and it was an hour wait so we got some drinks at that bar and hung out. I'd say it's something to check off the list to visit once, but for the long wait not worth it unless you're going in a group for the outdoor booth seating.

On a day trip to the beach we planned to do dinner here. The plan was to get to the restaurant right when it opened on Friday night. We joined the line about 10 minutes before they opened. They were very efficient in getting people in and seated. My friend and I were seated outside right near the koi pond! The weather was beautiful, our server was awesome and the atmosphere was out of this world! I started my meal with a colorful mango flavored drink and an appetizer sampler. Everything on the sampler was really good. I ordered the shrimp and pineapple yellow curry for my meal and it was pretty good.

I RECOMMEND EVERYTHING ON THE MENU! Dine in or do take out! Still a great idea to order food from here! Last time I had take out because I had my dogs with me and had a beach picnic. The ambiance and service were amazing and I honestly love the staff.

Superb! The garden is gorgeous, if you have a chance to eat outside, do it! The koi pond is magical. The pollinators were happy to join our meal, too! The food at Indochine is phenomenal. Everything we've ever had is so delicious, full of flavor, and very fresh. The vegetarian dumplings and veg egg roll were our favorite apps. I enjoyed the yellow curry with eggplant and tofu this trip. I'm still craving it, and probably will until we can visit again. Our little one had the pad Thai, and it was very good. This was our second trip to Indo, and we've been so pleased with the amazing service. The thorough training of staff is apparent. We will be back!

Food was outstanding and even I had a "doggie bag", not that the dogs got close to it! Service was outstanding, only it was Saturday night and the place was packed at 5:30! Best Thai food I've had south of DC!

We always enjoy the food at Indochine. Grabbing a drink from the bar and touring the gardens is a wonderful way to "kill time" while waiting for your table. There are more tables out in the garden area than there used to be, making it more difficult to view without invading space of others. Beautiful paintings and decor throughout the restaurant. Our server seems irritated at the beginning, but eased up at the end.

Love this place! Best Asian food in the area. Food is always fresh and service is great. Highly recommend.

I went solo, got to the host who told the wait was an hour to go to check the bar. Rather than jot my name down while I checked she made me walk around and come back with no luck only to make be go to another bar still not putting my name down. I had to insist on putting my name down and no the wait was over an hr. Pretty fricken rude. I bouncer not worth the frenzy.

Came here for dinner on Sunday right when they opened at 5pm. There was parking available in the lot and there was already a line at the door when we arrived. The atmosphere was great! We decided to sit outside in the garden because it was a nice evening. It was lovely! Beautiful and relaxing out on the patio! The garden definitely makes the whole place! We ordered chicken satay as an appetizer and the peanut sauce was great. We then ordered two entrees and I liked them both. The portions were massive. Each entree was like $20. We had so many leftovers. It lasted many more meals! Overall a nice experience!

I've eaten here twenty or thirty times. The food is great, but the service is AWFUL. The waitstaff had a skirt on that was so short I could literally see her pubic hair. GROSS.

Sometimes I love this place sometimes I really hate it... Writing this right now as we are sitting waiting for our food. we have been waiting for over 1hr for our food. There's only 3 of us. At this point I just want to leave and go home.

Went here while visiting Wilmington it was very good. Has a cool interior and the staff were friendly. For appetizers we got an appetizer sampler and dumpling sampler (steamed). The appetizer sampler was very good. A varied group of fried and steamed rolls. All were fresh and had good seasoning. For the dumplings you can get it steamed and fried. The steamed were nice and fresh and had good seasoning. When then shared family style Green Curry with pork, pad ki mao, and crispy bird nests to share family style. My favorite was the green curry but all were good. Green Curry with pork was perfectly balanced with heat and sweetness. The pork is mice and tender with some green peppers. Pad ki mao is served with chicken and shrimp with fried egg noodles. Was very good. Nice and thick with a little heat along with the salty ness of the peanuts and soy sauce. The vegetables of onions and green peppers add a nice crunch. Birds nest chicken with chicken, beef, and pork. The birds nests of fried rice noodles in n top adds a nice crunch. Everything else was nicely seasoned and flavorful. For dessert we got the coconut cake with coconut ice cream. Was perfectly balanced with richness of creamy ice cream with the coconut flavors in the cake. Was cooked well and tasted well. Overall would recommend and will be back when I'm in town.

The service and ambiance was great. The food was a delicious but it wasn't really authentic. However that's just my opinion. Every family has their own recipes.

I didn't believe that the wait was really going to be as bad as other reviews said, BUT IT IS. We got here about 10 til 5:00 and the line was into the street. We decided to go to another restaurant instead but they were unexpectedly closed, so we came back. We put our names in a little after 5:30 and around 7 our waitlist time was up, but we didn't get seated until 8. It does take longer to get an outside table. The appetizer sampler was amazing. Made the wait worth it. We had good Thai teas. The entrees were a ton of food and we had left overs. Our server, T, was kind and attentive. We see what the hype was about but aren't sure we'd wait that long again, as we've never waited this long to get in somewhere. But I would recommend trying it at least once! They also do to go orders.

Delicious food and large portions. We had the chicken yum yum and pad Thai and both were delicious! We even ate the leftovers cold for breakfast and they were good that way too!

Our party of 14 called ahead and we were able to snag a dinner slot at 5 pm on a Saturday. Thank goodness we called ahead, because the line outside the door at 4:45 pm was insane. Highly recommend calling ahead to see if seating is available earlier in the day if you have a large party. Our waitress was amazing, she was very friendly and attentive. I know large parties can be stressful but she seemed at ease and provided excelled service. I ordered the ginger chicken which was alright, but nothing compared to the yellow curry which my friend ordered. The yellow curry was AMAZING! The sauce had so much flavor, the perfect hint of spice, and was complimented well by the soft, perfectly cooked vegetables. I would come back and order this dish myself! As for the ginger chicken, it did have good flavor but I think there are much more special, authentic options on the menu to try so maybe skip this one and go for the curry! The menu items are pricey but the portions sizes are huge so you do get your moneys worth. Highly recommend Indochine!
