Classic Thai restaurant with all the staples. This restaurant is also interesting since they only have one “spice level” denoted by a chili pepper next to the dish. These dishes have the perfect amount of spice.

The Tom ka was amazing. My friends had the duck and curry and I had the crispy pork and we all pretty happy. They service was a little slow but only because they were massively busy. I was more than happy to wait with a delicious mojito to sip on.

Ordered takeout for just the Thai green curry. The curry sauce was OK and I didn’t like green beans in it. But the fried tofu was absolutely amazing. The tenderest most delicious fried tofu I’ve had.

I’m not normally a huge fan of Thai, but this place is absolutely exceptional. From the outside, this place looks very understated. On the inside, it’s beautifully decorated, with excellent food presentation. The environment is nice and quiet, great for a date night or meeting (if you care to hear the other person).

This used to be my go-to local eatery. Since the new ownership, the food is still good, if served in smaller portions, but the big drawback for me is the atmosphere – Fox News always (always) dominating the room from the bar. I once asked why Fox News was always on – as it was when I stopped in tonight – and our server said that the owner had ordered it so. Enough said.

Very good food. It’s one of the more authentic Thai restaurants in the area. It has amazing food but it’s also more expansive than other Thai restaurants. I really enjoyed the summer roles, they were fresh and no flavorful. I loved that they served pineapple fried rice on a pineapple plate. Cold singha on tap is bonus!

Came twice and both times, the food was fantastic. The flavors are strong (in a good way) and the service and staff is also really nice and kind. I highly recommend the Thai tea, too…stir it up first, but the flavor is wonderful. The food is also tasty with our favorite being the lemon chicken dishes, although everything we had (Pad Thai and crispy chicken) were also great. The price is not too bad, either, and we never had to wait for a table. We only went during lunch, so keep that in mind.
