I ordered 30 minutes before closing via GrubHub, then read the yelp reviews AFTER I placed my order and decided to keep my expectations low. My mother is Thai, so I admit that I'm pretty particular about true authentic Thai flavors. My order came 15 minutes before the allotted time, (but I only live 2 blocks away), and I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the veggie spring rolls, papaya salad and green curry. Everything was freshly made, and the spring rolls and curry were still very warm. I sometimes worry that won't be the case when I order so close to closing time.
The spring rolls were actually slightly larger than other places I order from and were so crispy and delicious. The papaya salad had the perfect amount of flavors, which can be hard to find -- great balance of fish sauce and lime juice. AND I chose the spicy option, and it was TRULY SPICY! Or as my mother says, "Thai spicy, not American spicy" lol. The green curry was also spicy and on point! They even gave a full carton of rice (there are some places that only give the small cartons unless you play more).
I'm definitely impressed with what I ordered and felt compelled to write a review after reading the not-so-good ones. The serving sizes were all on par with other Thai restaurants that I order from, so I'm not sure where the complaints are coming from regarding the small serving sizes -- unless that changed since those reviews were written. And I'm kind of a snob about Thai flavors, but everything tasted very authentic to me! I plan to make Thai Time my new go-to, especially since they are so close. I am not at all affiliated with this restaurant, but just want to give credit where it's due! :)
