It was delicious. Found it in tripadvisor and I was not disappointed. Everything from the fried pickles to the chocolate cake was worth the search.

We have been going to Corona Cafe for years, and it is always good. Now I can't speak for the thai food, I have never tried it, but the BBQ and sides are awesome! My favorite though is the Corona Salad. It's just lettuce, tomato, grilled chicken, and the house dressing. But the dressing is what makes this salad so... More

Three of us dined there, two of us had Thai Chicken and you could make it as hot as you liked. It was excellent. The other party had barbecued ribs which were excellent. No barbecue sauce was required. Service was excellent and reasonably priced.

You have to be a local to know about this little hole in the wall in Mary Esther, Fl. We were in the mood for Thai food and the chicken curry, pad thai, spicy fried rice, and shrimp something or other was really tasty. The service was prompt and friendly and the prices great. There are plenty of American dishes... More

I make sure to come here at least twice while I'm down here. The Cuban is amazing and the potato salad is out of this world. I totally recommend this place.

The food was OK once we got it. Completely forgot about one order and the entire staff was sitting in the kitchen just having a great time. One member of our party had no food and couldn't get their attention.

Looks can be deceiving. This place has been one of my favorites in the area for a few years. They have friendly service, great Thai food, decent catfish and BBQ. You sit on plastic chairs in a sort of picnic feel atmosphere, but the Thai food is amazing. Great takeout for a 'night in'. Frequented by local military during lunch... More
