I really like this Thai restaurant near Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. The food is delicious, especially the yellow curry and pineapple fried rice - I always leave satisfied and looking forward to my next visit!

Humiliating Experience -HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND I DO MEAN HORRIBLE AT LUNCH!!!

My husband and I were anticipating a great dining experience at lunchtime today, but instead I left hungry, humiliated and angry. Apparently, the restaurant has implemented a no-pre order no sit down and wait for your order policy during their lunch hour. The issue that I have is that I arrived at around 12:06 p.m. with two parties before me; I waited a total of 43 minutes for food that I never received. I thought I was doing myself a favor by converting my space in line to a carry out"¦.NEGATIVE. Literally, 3 minutes after converting my order to a carryout two tables opened up and I asked the hostess if me and my husband could be seated. She gladly said "NO because that is not our policy", thus they were not in any shape form or fashion willing to accommodate us. Well, me as the hungry, optimistic person that I am decided to continue to wait for my order. The staff stated to me after another 15 minutes that my order was ready. Well it was never ready. I felt my inward temperature rising and tried to remain as calm (don't judge me but see I get emotional when I'm really hungry) as possible but after the mistreatment, lack of concern for my wait, the lack of no water, (poor customer service to the utmost) we decided to walk. This is not typical for me and my husband, but I felt so humiliated and mistreated after everyone who was there before and after me got there food or were seated. Thai Taste has some awesome food, but the customer service and customer recovery is HORRIBLE. They deserve a grade of a F+. I will never eat there again. I choose to travel out of town to enjoy Thai cuisine.

This restaurant is truly horrible. I ordered take out. My egg rolls were basically empty and burned. The sticky rice was a warm, dense, flavorless brick.

When I contacted Thai Taste they suggested that rice always turns hard and disgusting after being taken out of the rice steamer. Having made and ordered plenty of sticky rice in my life I know this isn't true. So not only does the food suck, the customer service does too.

I definitely wont waste my money here again.
