Finally got to try this place out for lunch with co-workers! Parking was a breeze since there’s a free parking lot in the apartment garage next door. The food came out quickly and was delicious, and we even were given their hot and sour soup on the house! I had the sweet and sour chicken, and even though I just got the lunch portion, the portions were big enough to take home half. Will definitely be coming back soon!

Just okay. Came all the way out to south end from the suburbs.. and was disappointed. The food is average, at best and the service was not good either. There are better places in Charlotte for thai food. They can do better!

They were amazing til they weren’t. The rice started getting really gummy. The portions very tremendously.(you notice when you eat there often) I love the flavor of the dishes and the sushi is bomb! Great atmosphere for sushi & a drink. Parking is very limited as the takeout section. The location is definitely dine in, limited out door seating.

Cozy ambiance and great staff. But then the food was absolutely disappointing. Felt the food wasn’t fresh. I tried edamame and basil chicken fried rice. Also, we had requested for spice level 4 and it was super bland.

I went kind of plain and got chicken fried rice. I have never had Thai food before but I honestly really enjoyed it. Their menu mentions to go down a spice level, definitely do that!! The rice was cooked to perfection and it comes with a little bowl of cilantro lime sauce on the side, and it mixes perfectly with the bowl’s seasoning. I will say the chicken itself was a little dry, but other than that I enjoyed it. If you like Thai food I would definitely go here!

The portion sizes are large so I would recommend sharing a dish with your loved ones. The crispy pad Thai wasn’t that great so just go with the regular one. The space is a bit cramped as well and we went on new year’s eve so it felt more tight. Make sure you get your reservation well in advance to avoid the rush.

This is such a cute and tasty little Thai restaurant. We were a group of 5 adults, and we all loved our food. The food here was so good that our out of town guest ordered his same chicken dish to go after dinner to eat the following day. We ordered shrimp curry and a few different chicken dishes – all excellent. We also ordered their Thai coffee martini and the lychee martini and both were perfect and not too sweet. This is definitely one of the places we will keep coming back to! 100% recommend!
