Orchid Restaurant

"Everything was top notch. Quality and tasteful interior, large seating area, both booths and many tables. They have an extremely large dining area and a full bar. The staff was professional and friendly. My daughter and I had an early dinner there and the food was fabulous. I have owned 6 restaurants in my younger days. Owning a successful restaurant these days is a tremendous responsibility. I applaud them for their hard work. As we were leaving the dinner crowd was streaming in the door. It's a breath of fresh air to have this classy restaurant in White Bear Lake."

"Nice restaurant for lunch. The menu is pretty large so there is something for everyone. We had a nice lunch on a Saturday before going to the movie nearby. Service was good, and the food came out fast and fresh. I will be going back to try other dishes."

"Stopped by here for the first time & had the Special Thai Basil dish. I loved it!! Creamy, sweet, and delicious. The service was excellent and enjoyed the atmosphere."

"Food was pretty good, waiter forgot to bring a food item I ordered so I never asked again or got it. Furniture was a little distressed/damaged, could be updated. Music wasn't really what you expected for an "asian" restaurant, pretty upbeat American music. Nice staff but needs to be more focused/patient or write down orders so things aren't forgotten altogether."

"My group had a good time on the pleasant patio. The spring rolls were fresh and the egg rolls are certainly good. I ordered the Thai Basil special but it was an unappealing flavor. Overly sweet, and whomever expo’d the meal sent a tray dripping with sauce which got on my jeans, and cost the server a bunch of time apologizing for it and trying to clean up the mess. Sauce on my jeans did not bother me so much as the decision of a manager to send that meal out. I ate a small amount of my food and had the server take away the rest. I never do that. This Thai basil special just tasted like sugary water or something and I couldn’t taste the vegetables. We sat around after dinner for a longer visit and still had remaining plates on the table which could have been cleared up as we had finished dinner. Overall, I would return because there’s a lot of good food to try here!"
