Had to try some Thai in our area and I had heard from a fellow foodie to check out “Simply Thai” in Middletown. This location was easy to get too, easy to park, and the restaurant is nice and clean with a fun tropical theme to it. The staff were young, but courteous, timely and attentive. My wife has actually visited Thailand twice, and she was impressed with the menu selection and authenticity of our dishes taste and her sweet peach boba tea that she had. Which although the large tea was $7, it was VERY good, and I’ve had many a southern sweet tea too. She said that it reminded her of the tea in Thailand, some of the best she’s ever had! And we travel a lot. We had just one appetizer, the “curry puffs” (picture taken). Which were very good, enough to share for two. And although their food does not look like much, they are power packed with flavor! The curry puffs were sweet, crunchy, and the cucumber dip was very good. Highly recommended, I bet the “satay” appetizer is also delicious; we will have to try that another time. For the main dish, we each ordered the Chicken Pad Thai, at a spicy 2 (picture included). Again, the dish does not look like much and the portion was MASSIVE! Enough to make an Italian eatery blush. Honestly, me and my wife could have split it between the two of us, but hey, left overs are good too! Beware, I would consider spicy level 2 to be at the highest “spice” that most people could probably still find palatable but any hotter and your tongue will be in for a lava treatment. Unless you are into that, but if it’s your first time eating Thai food, stick to 0-2 in spicy. They will also give free samples of their spices to taste and choose which one you would like too. Their menu was good, with many many options to add toppings, change meat to seafood to Tofu and even adding ingredients a plenty. They have multiple vegan and gluten free dishes and offerings too. However, regarding their menu, you can also customize your dishes if you wish, but some of the additional toppings were expensive. Such as adding olive oil to your dish is an extra $1.50, or others seemed a tad bit odd. I did rate the restaurant as a 4/5 because I am honest and don’t like to hand out too many 5/5s. The reasons why I rated this 4/5 was because of a few reasons: 1. Seating in the booths was uncomfortable, with the bottom of the booths falling off or unglued every time I shifted I felt like it might slide off. Not the end of the world, but they should fix those ASAP. 2. Their drink menu leaves more to be desired. Such as more beer options, more soda options, or having sugar free options. 3. The Pad Thai was served way too hot! Not the “spice”, but the actual temperature of the noodles was borderline scolding. So much of it we had to wait to eat, or blow on them to cool them down. But once the temp went down after 10 mins, it was easier and more enjoyable to eat. 4. A better dessert menu could use improvement. Such as maybe frozen yogurt options or some sort of a chocolate delectable would be nice. But they only have sweet rice and a deep fried banana. I know most Thai restaurants don’t have much for dessert, but it could make for a fun way to differentiate themselves from their competition. Check it out! It is good food! I hope they see my recommendations and consider solutions if they so choose too!

Copy of the Review for Impellizzeri’s Pizza Middletown 805 Blankenbaker Pkwy #105 Louisville, KY 40243 06/11/24 Tonight 23 residents from Swan Pointe’s HOA came to eat at Impellizzeri’s Pizza on Blankenbaker Pkwy. Our server tonight was Morrigan P. She first would get about 6 people’s order at a time then bring them back and go to the next table. She didn’t write them down and I was really impressed. Then she started taking dinner orders. Impellizzeri’s has a great variety of items to choose from. It’s funny but out of 23 people, there wasn’t any duplications of pizza types. Tonight I took pictures of each pizza and a Kid’s Spaghetti, an order of Meatballs, Spaghetti and Meatballs, a Ceasar Salad, a Side Salad, and an Antipasta Salad. I’ll type the name of the item beneath the picture. We really had a great time. The great thing about us going out to eat is that we usually end up sitting by different people each week and we talk and learn new things every time. It’s a wonderful way to get to know your neighbors! My husband and I really enjoyed our 12” Chicken Bacon and Ranch Pizza. We left with 1/2 of our pizza to enjoy tomorrow for our lunch. Our friends sitting on all sides of us really enjoyed their meals. Benny Impellizzeri was there tonight helping out. In fact every time my husband and I have been here, Benny has been there working. Impellizzeri’s was established in 1979. They have won many awards for their pizzas. I took the following statement off their website. “We offer delicious pizza with a full menu of Italian inspired dishes with only the finest and freshest ingredients. “ 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the restaurant’s Anbiance, it is perfect for family and friends. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the Food. The food was delicious and the wonderful smell of Italian dishes filled the air. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for our Server, Morrigan. She did a great job with the beverages, taking orders, bringing out the pizzas, and dishes. Everyone got the correct food, the correct bills and Pizza Boxes for their leftovers. My back was turned to the area where the rest of the staff was making the pizzas and baking them, but they did an awesome job getting everything out to us in a timely manner. We weren’t the only large group in the restaurant. INFORMATION ON THE VARIETY OF THE MENU. See front and back copies of the updated menu. *10 pizza types +1 Build your own * 4 different sizes *Hand Tossed crust & Thin crust There is a Sicilian Pizza And a Gluten Free Pizza *9 Apetizers *4 Salads (Add Chicken $2) *4 Submarines *7 Pasta Dishes Robyn
