Lemongrass Southeast Asian Cuisine

Not recommend. Came here after seeing many good reviews about this place. Met with disappointment. Ordered the grilled chicken plate with Zucchini for 11 dollars, taste-wise, it 's alright. However, the meat to rice ratio is very sad, and the zucchini is watery and flavorless. The chicken also does not taste grilled , though the seasoning is on point. A pleasant hint of coconut coupled with the sweet and slightly spicy peanut sauce is a match made in heaven, but it 's still grossly overpriced. I will not be eating here again, since Santorini 's loaded fries is both cheaper and has more protein than this plate.

Overpriced and absolutely isn't worth it, except for the peanut sauce. Now I get why there is never a line at this place. The menu is super confusing. Unlike Panda Express, they don't cook new food often, the meat was prepared once at the beginning of the day and they out it out until it is used up. Hence, all the meet is are super dry. They even charge you $2.50 for ONE egg. The portion is rather small compared to other places on campus too. Once I came a bit late at like 6pm, they are out of all the meat, so I just had pad thai with bok choy and a fried egg, they still charged me $14 for it. Not recommended, never coming back.

One of my favorite takeout restaurants, but location can be challenging (parking) and hours are spotty because it’s on campus.Amazing food, but I wish I could count on them being open when they’re supposed to be.

Is that cabbage worm?? Find it with the bok choy I ordered. Disgusting

I came to visit Lemongrass today (6/15/21 on my second day back to campus following an extended stay away from school due to COVID. I 'm a grad student, and campus is now largely empty since undergraduates have left for summer break. This is also reflected in the campus dining options most restaurants are shuttered (Subway, Panda Express, Rubios, etc. . However, Lemongrass is still open! I know 'being open ' is a low standard to set, but I just want to make it clear that this is a *local* restaurant that actually cares about providing hospitality to students year round, versus some of the corporate/franchise options which are now closed. The person who served me appeared to also be working in the kitchen (with one other employee , and I suspect she may be the owner. She was extremely kind and generous. When I asked her what she recommended for lunch, she told me the yellow curry and grilled chicken were her favorites today, and offered to make me a plate of half and half (something not on the menu . She then said, I hope you came hungry! and gave very generous portions. I can tell she cares about the student experience really wants to take care of her customers. I will be returning often (and not just because my lab is so nearby . Thank you, Lemongrass!
