Prices are good and the food was fast and spicy. I had the “Racy Pad Thai” house special and it was everything I wanted it to be. (Extra spicy and extra vegetables)

I just carried out calamari & Thai Fried rice w chicken, heat level 3 out of 1-5, and 3 is melting my face off in a very good way. So good. this place is awesome, if you like a little or a lot of heat, they can accommodate. 3 is like an inferno for me, a very good one, wouldn’t change it, ouch. I’ll order 3 next time too. Ow. Yum!!!

Told us 15 minutes. Showed up 15 minutes later and they hadn’t started the order yet. Apparently they put it in for an hour and 15 minutes. So we had to wait. And takeout orders are apparently 15% mandatory tip “for the wait staff.” Then the woman brought the order out front then walked back into the kitchen and came out with a plate of food and delivered it to a table. Another staff member showed up and bagged our food. No lime wedge with the Pad Thai either. And apparently three stars of spice is “3X very spicy.” Won’t be going back ever again, based solely on the 15% gratuity on takeout.

Pleasant surprise! I was hankering for pad thai and was not disappointed. Green curry was even better. Great menu selection, good service, and reasonable prices. A winner.

Food is good, not authentic Thai but very close. Tom yum soup was overly sweet, It isn’t suppose to taste like a sweet dish, Don’t know if it was a fluke or thats how its served, never ordered again. Rest of the menu items are good, specially when served hot. Once our food was served barely room temperature, they re heated it, and it was fine. The food/service is consistent.

The beef noodle was excellent. Very tender and savory beef, flavorful broth and a single mushroom that ended up being the best part of my day. The wait staff was quick and appetizers were delicious as well.

You got to go for the Khao Soi. Such a creamy and flavorful broth with countless textures in the dish, and just enough spice (I go for 4.0/5.0 spice). Shout out to their basil duck as well which I often go back to. My favorite Thai around and one of the best comfort dishes you could ask for!
