The foods are great and very delicious. I had a stir-fried pork belly. It comes with rice and I love it. The only downside is that they have schedule and told us that the kitchen is closing soon. After we just finished our food, the server gave us the bill while we are still talking. We felt like she didn’t want us to stay in the restaurant anymore. So we paid and left. There are a lot of options on the menu. I believe everything is good.

Super authentic and delicious food! Service is below average, order’s were taken wrong with dishes being delivered to wrong tables and orders. Aside from that, the food alone was a 5.

Amit Bhatia
All dishes that we tried were delicious! Spice level is as per the menu. They do offer spice and hot sauce on the table. It was difficult to explain or order to the server, but the flavor in the dishes more than compensated for making sure they understand our order. Quality of everything else was without any issues.

It was a decently good dinner, considering it has quite an authentic taste of Thai food. However, food seems like a bit too salty and sweet, perhaps localised this portion of taste for locals. We ordered 4 dishes (2 came with a bowl of rice each) and comes up to be $52. Portion is good for the price, with starters being less than $10. We asked for more spicy for the Tom Yum soup, and they just added more chilli flakes

Authentic Thai food, low key setting but great food. We had Thai green curry and fried rice and both were awesome, high in flavour and spice. Vegetarian friendly. Restaurant would benefit by making fish free sauce to also cater to lot of vegan folks

Great little low-key Thai place. I arrived just before they were closing for lunch but was graciously welcomed and not rushed.

I got the Pad see ew and it was the so delicious. I loved every single bite of it. My partner got the Masama chicken curry and didn’t like it as much. It had no vegetables, nuts and potatoes and she said that is normal in this dish. We shared the sticky rice and that was also very great tasting, just a really small serving. We also had a Thai tea and lemonade and both were delicious. The server was nice enough, just a little busy. Our total bill came to $50 so it was definitely very affordable. I recommend this resturant and would go again to get more of the pad see ew.

I can’t express how much I like the papaya salad here. It was so authentic and they made it like I have in Thailand, which means they weren’t shy about making it so spicy lol. The Fire Bird Nest dish was also phenomenal. They have a big menu, so try as many dishes as you can.

Great Thai food and very affordable as far as restaurant fare in DC goes! Service was excellent too, friendly staff. Bathrooms were also sparkling clean and smelled good.

Service was a little slow as there was only one server. Server was friendly and accommodating. Also offered menu suggestions. Menu items were delicious. The dumplings were served lukewarm and lacked freshness. Everything else, however, was served piping hot and was delicious.
