Reviews for Circles Thai in Philadelphia, PA
We had ordered chicken massanan and roti and pad Thai with roti. The taste was decent. The spice level is pretty good and kicks... in as after taste. Read more
Ordered food through Uber eats. Ordered vegetarian pad Thai and vegetarian pineapple curry. Not only the food was cold but it... may have been the most unauthentic Thai food I ever tasted. Also the quantity was small for pad Thai. And the only thing theadded in pineapple curry was bell peppers and pineapple. Also I?m sure they added fish sauce or some shrimp paste in the padThai when I explicitly told that the food should be vegetarian. I will never order food from there again and I strongly adviseany vegetarians who read this review to do the same. Read more
Their curries are incredibly flavorful and rich and stand out from other mediocre, watered-down curries I have tried in the... past. They tend to be quite spicy, but I happen to enjoy that, so you just have to know what you are in for. I appreciate thatthey don't skimp on the vegetables and there is a good ratio of protein to greens. I have had the pineapple fried rice as wellas the green and massaman curries and all have been excellent. Read more
Great pad Thai! I?ve been looking for a great go to spot in south Philly and I think I?ve found it. Super delicious and just how... i?be had it at my favorite places in nyc ???? Read more
Truly delicious. We ordered three different kinds of curries and the flavor was spectacular. While they tasted great, there was... not much to them. There was a lot of sauce but not a lot of substance to the dishes. This the first time I ordered curry so notsure whether that is the way it's served. The one food that didn't come out great was the mango rice. It was a large clump ofrice that was difficult to break apart, with a small amount of cream on top, and large slices of mango. I'm not sure how it wassupposed be but it was difficult to mix up and eat. That said the mango was ripe and the rice tasted good. Read more
Criminally underrated Thai. I ordered delivery from Circles a few nights ago and I am still thinking about how delicious the red... curry was. The sauce was exquisitely balanced, the vegetables were masterfully cooked, the Thai basil was flavorful, and thechicken was the MOST tender I have ever had in a curry. I seriously don't know how they did it. The calamari and duck were greattoo, but really the red curry was the star of the show. 5 stars on flavor and ingredient quality, delivery time was quick, orderwas accurate, and the price was right. From the look of the negative reviews, it sounds like Circles has been made a victim oftheir own excellence. I'm guessing their staff may have been a bit overwhelmed by demand and the shift to a large volume ofremote ordering during the pandemic. Read more
Sunday night munchies hit us, my partner and I were in the mood for Pad Thai. We scrolled through Doordash and saw this one... boasting 1600+ reviews and a 4 star rating-- so we decided to go safe and choose this restaurant. Not long after placing ourorder, we realized that we forgot to ask for utensils (I am in the middle of moving- so I had none). So I called the place uponly to be told that the order has already been picked up and on its way to us. To our pleasant surprise, they not only includedplastic forks but also napkins and chopsticks! Food was plentiful. We ordered two appetizers, Summer Rolls and Fried Calamari,two entrees, Pad See Ew and Pad Kee Mow, and two cans of la Croix. The taste is nothing to write home about, very typical.Although the Summer Rolls came in three, I guess we forgot to select a protein so it tasted bland and monotone with the saltypeanut sauce. For what it is, it's okay, and the fact that our order arrived so quickly with nothing missing adds an extra starfrom me! Read more
Eat here at your own risk! My husband and I experienced classic food poisoning (vomiting and diarrhea) last night after eating... the seafood pad thai. Him to a lesser extent than I since he shared a small portion of my dish. Read more
