About
Eto'o Modern Asian Cuisine — straightforward thai in Hyde Park. It has that lived-in, been-here-forever warmth. The portions alone make it worth the trip. Sandra: "I felt the need to post for this place because their food is the best in Hyde Park"

Some noted
No seasonings, al dente noodles, nothing modern or fusion, just lazy cooks.
I think they need to update the pictures of their food.
As we were eating flies continued to come into my food.

“The food was really good.”
The food was really good. Huge portions so the dishes I had were sharable with a group of people. The prices were reasonable and it's in a good location in Hyde Park where there is plenty of parking.

“I love this place.”
I love this place. The food is so good and flavorful. my favorite is the shrimp pad woon sen. The egg rolls are light and crunchy, and 1 is never enough. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity they provide.

They should change their serving dishes! Most of the serving dishes are with chipped edges.

“The food was pretty good.”
The food was pretty good! The place seemed to be an Asian fusion. The customer service was good too! Definitely would recommend; they give huge portions and tastes good too! One small thing is I didn’t really like how they made the spring egg rolls, as it was mainly just vegetables and tasted bland, but other than that really good!

Love the freshness of the mixed veggies and shrimp entrée, the sauce compliments every bite and you just want to pour it all over the rice. The pad Thai is equally delicious and the Hawaiian Fried rice are among my new favorites. Eto'o where have you been, I guess I was sleeping on this spot but their food has awakened me. A definite must try and enjoy over again spot.
