We absolutely loved our meal here. The restaurant is cosy, service is good, and food is excellent. Lots of choices for vegetarians. We loved how nicely the food was served down to the aesthetic dishes, bowls and cutlery. Strongly recommend this Asian fusion restaurant which has a strong Thai affinity in its dishes.

Outstanding food. If you’re in downtown Hilo, this is your spot. My husband had the yellow shrimp curry and he loved it. I got the tofu wrap and it was incredible. Highly recommend. Many vegan options too, which is always amazing!

The Thai-Food is very delicious and the place is cool, a little Hippie-Style and cool 70ies music when we were there. We will make another stop there in our holidays

Lovely family style restaurant with big portion sizes. The drinks were wonderful!! Not too sweet but definitely flavorful. The green curry was also amazing! Will order it again next time. Beware of spice levels! They don’t mess around.

This is my 2nd time trying the Thai food here. They are a lovely small, family-run establishment. Service has always been on point. Too bad the food doesn’t match the service. I had the green curry with tofu and brown rice as well as the summer rolls. The rice and vegetables were overcooked in the curry. The peanut sauce that goes with the summer rolls was over-flavored with fish sauce with the rolls themselves being bland. So…perhaps I will try back another time.

Arrived at 7:32 . . . No seating after 7:30. Ordered for take out; no setting inside while you wait. Of the three dishes we ordered ($60) the chicken curry was good but not exceptional. The Papaya salad was absolutely tasteless; just shredded raw green papaya and carrots and a few tomatoes and peanuts. No flavor. The Tom Kah soup was huge chunks of carrots (purchased pre-cut and frozen?), a couple pieces of squash, a bit of basil but no galanga root, no lemon grass, no mushrooms and not much flavor. It cost an extra $7 for “jumbo shrimp” of which there were only three! I’ve had worse Thai food, but rarely. I do not recommend this restaurant.

This restaurant just reopened for dining in post covid, and I couldn’t be happier with the food. The restaurant is small and cozy and it’s easy to have a long, unhurried meal here. You order family style, and the dishes come out when they’re ready because the same woman who owns the restaurant also cooks every item on the menu.

Had a delightful summer salad special, should have taken photo, however all the three various dishes we shared together was very pleasant to our palates, as well as, sight.
