Yummy place! Loved it! Came here for lunch and really enjoyed it with my group! Quick service, friendly staff and a surprisingly good find in the area. Parking is a bit of trying your luck. There is a parking lot in the back if you can’t find street parking.

Loved the environment as soon as we walked in we were greeted by two friendly servers and shown to our seats. The space had a romantic and cozy feel. The drinks and meals were thoughtfully plated. The food was very good and worth every dollar! Definitely worth checking out. Will be back whether it’s to dine in or take out! Yum!

Super good food and relaxing atmosphere. Service is very good. Definitely recommended for anyone who liked thai food. We started with chicken noodle soup and tom yum. Tom yum amazingly delicious. Pad Thai is also very nice. You should try cocktails, especially sweet heart! Super good.

A co-worker recommended this place a while ago. Stopped in on a Thursday night. Was seated quickly, staff was cheerful and very helpful. The ambiance was worth writing home about.

Our experience was awful at this restaurant. The waitress was incredibly rude and her attitude was abysmal. We called the restaurant around 115pm to ask if they had a table for 6 available around 145. They said yes, confirmed they had food for kids and that we should arrive prior to 2pm since they closed at 230pm. We arrived around 150, and was told to order right away- which we did. When the food came out around 215, they told us we had five to ten minutes before they closed. We let them know that we called in advance and they should have let us know if they were going to kick us out five minutes after receiving our food. We were a party of 6 w two kids. When I told them I’d leave a review, they backed off a little. I didn’t even eat since we were hurried out. It’s a shame bc the leftovers we took home were good. Will never return.

Go here. The food was incredible. Simple and elevated. Spice level was perfect. Spicy but not over powering. Also the food came out hot which I always appreciate. This place is spectacular. For reference — we ordered the dumplings, the spring rolls, drunken noodles and the pad Thai delux. Wicked good.

I’m literally sitting at the restaurant as I type this because the food is THAT good, I couldn’t wait. We got the duck noodle soup and the crispy duck curry and were HIGHLY impressed with both dishes. We were seated quickly on a Tuesday and service was great. Highly recommend to anyone traveling through Portsmouth! SO GOOD!

We came here after reading great reviews and perhaps had too high of expectations. The food was definitely not bad but there just wasn’t a whole lot going on in the flavor department! Service was incredibly friendly and fast.

Service was delightful with a smile and prompt. I purchased chicken Massaman curry with jasmine rice and Thai iced tea. Everything was cooked well, including the meat. Curry had a wonderful peanut/tangy blend that paired with the carrots and jasmine rice very well. Would recommend this location!
