I decided to try out this restaurant because it was close to my house. It is brand new, and I understand there are other Golden Buddahs in Michigan. I have to say this has the best Thai food in the US. I have been to Thailand, and lived in China. I know good Thai food. I have been to lots of other Thai restaurants here in Michigan as well as across the states, and this is the most authentic Thai food you can get. When I asked for spicy food, I didnt know it was be that spicy! Usually when I order spicy Thai food, there is no spice at all and it is very mild. The food was extremely spicy! My sinuses were being cleared and my mouth was on fire. I loved it! It was like the spicy Thai food in Thailand. Of course you can order mild, for the less adventerous ones. They use real Thaii pepper, so the food tastes authentic. Its new so they still have a building menu. Even with some import restrictions, like not being able to import thai mango in the states, they still bring the authentic thai taste to the table. The service was amazing! We had this lovely Thai waitress, that was so nice she reminded me of locals in China. When we would get a refill for a drink she would literally run across the room to give us the refill. :) She told us her story, and was the nicest waitress Ive seen since Ive lived in china. No offense, but people in Lake Orion can be annoying and trashy. I miss this kind of nice service that I got back in China and Thailand. The atmosphere was small but quaint. It was nicely decorated, and made me feel like I was back in Thailand. The value was pretty good also, considering the price for authentic ingredients and Thai cuisine. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone! The food is amazing and authentic and the service is fantastic. I would go back here all the time! If I could, I would give this place 10 stars!

Went there for my lunch break today and was welcomed as soon as I walked through the door. The staff was very friendly. I had a coupon for Wednesday Buy One Item and Get the 2nd Half Off. I ordered Honey Chicken and Crazy California Roll. The Honey Chicken was really good , the chicken was quite juicy and the breading was crispy too! However, they did put A LOT of the sweet honey sauce and it drenched my white rice, so even when I took a bite out of the rice I couldnt get a balance of flavor. If I go again, I will make sure to ask for the rice on the side... The Crazy California Roll is also very delicious! You get 10 pieces! They offer FREE WiFi, however you need a password to use it, even as a guest. I didnt bother because my internet was working just fine without it. Overall, a great lunch experience. I would come back to try another dish that looked good on the menu. **I forgot to mention their Hot and Sour Soup is not too great. There was a weird smell and taste to it that I couldnt bear!! It seemed too SOUR!! Maybe okay for some, but I will never get the hot and sour soup again**

Amazing sushi that is always fresh. I started coming here at the beginning of the year and have never been displeased. The general service woman is always so polite and usually offers me a water while I wait for carry out (I have never been treated as such). The Thai is great and spice levels are always exactly as I order them. What really blows me away is the sushi chef; he is amazing (and quite humble about it), he makes great conversation and always has something good to recommend. The way the food is prepared here is spectacular my favorite being their pad thai. It is a little more pricy than other places I have been, but because of their quality and service I would actually pay more than what they charge. Overall it is the absolute best thai restaurant I have ever been to.

This is honestly one of my favorite sushi places Ive ever been to. Ive had sushi all over the country, including coastal areas, and in other countries including Japan. The fish is very good quality, especially for our area. They really shine in their big roll composition. The Yum Yum is arguably the best "American style" roll Ive ever had. I love the variety of rolls, and they are big enough that Im not left hungry. The size of the rolls is large compared to other comparable priced rolls at other places. We literally ate here yesterday for my fiancés birthday and were getting takeout again today! I havent tried a plate of sashimi or anything from them, but everything weve had in rolls has been fresh and tasty. Looking forward to picking up our order in a few minutes!

Sushi was delicious. I was told by my partner that the Bon Bom roll said extremely hot on the menu, and was not as hot as he expected (he also regularly eats ghost pepper sauce). The catapillar role was delicious and the squid and white tuna nigiri were above average. My issue with this place is that I was unable to get shrimp in my pad ped (they only offered chicken) and when i ordered it no spice, it definitely tasted like a mild or medium. Place was difficult to get to and seemed kind of outdated and cluttered, but the food was amazing and the service was more than polite.

For starters the ppl are really nice here. They offered me something to drink while I waited for my take out order. The all speak great English. And the food is amazing. they are pretty good about not having me wait but its two minutes after they said it would be ready And this nice fellow named josh that had took a moment out of his time to introduce himself and he gave me a one free enter card for the extra wait. Im very pleased with this Thai food place I love their pad see~Ew med. With chicken. Keep up the good work everyone :~D

We ate there once, was really, really bad food. But i really liked the atmosphere, looks beautiful inside. We gave it a second chance, there really was no difference. If you go there, go for the sushi, thats the only thing this place has going for it. And i guess its Oeshi Sushi; if they mean the restaurant in Novi, no wonder, its a great restaurant, unlike the food here. Sorry to give them a bad review, but hopefully they step it up a notch, everything tastes like micro-wave dinners.

1/4/12: Since my initial review on 10/26/11 I took this down from five stars to three. I have ordered two honey chicken dishes since my last review and the chicken was overcooked and very hard to chew. It reminded me of a chinese fast food dish you can get at the mall. I did speak to the owner about this and he told me that his chef had changed. I really want this place to do well and hope they get a better chef in soon. I will give it a third try, but Ill wait a while.
