I really liked the food, really tasty. I think that it is quite overpriced, though. I got the spicy noodles which was a $13 for a very small plate, so if you’re quite hungry or thinking of sharing, you might want to buy an extra dish.

It’s the only Thai Restaurant we saw so we decided to give it a try. I needed a receipt for our meal but they can’t even provide one LMAO. The cashier said the CC transaction copy is all they can provide (like I can use that to get reimbursed) ‍♀️ . They also made a mistake with our order and bill.. Their food doesn’t taste like thai especially their honey spareribs , it was very different. If y’all are traveling for business,etc and need an OR definitely not to dine here as they won’t give you one. Food doesn’t taste like authentic thai either. They also don’t take certain cards and they also kinda beg for tip .LoL.

I came here for lunch and ordered their panang curry lunch special. The small bowl of soup that was served first was cold and bland. The panang curry was pretty flavorful, but erred a bit on the sweet side. I chose a 5/10 spice level, which is usually my standard at any Thai place, but there was no heat at all. I also found a piece of hair in my curry, and the portion was small. It looks larger in the photo, but the dish that held the curry was extremely shallow. I ended up ordering their fried banana with coconut ice cream for dessert because I didn’t feel full. The dessert was the best part about my meal- the bananas were nicely fried and the coconut ice cream was smooth and yummy. My server charged me a dollar extra for the dessert than what was advertised in the menu, but she gladly adjusted the price after I pointed it out.

Love this place! The food is incredible and the staff is insanely friendly. I’ve had a ton of different dishes from this place and it keeps me coming back. The Drunken Noodles are my typical go to and they always get the spice right.

Order is completely wrong. I told them how spicy I wanted my noodles twice and there’s no spice in them at all, they taste very bland. Got beef instead of pork on the pad see ew. The wontons have almost no filling and taste very plain. Total waste of $35.

We had chili and basil soup with chicken, phad thai, and mango chicken. It was very tasty. Service was fine- not quick. The environment was peaceful! I would go again!

Local gem. The setting was average but what made this place stand out is the tastiness of each plate (we had the Panang) and good service. Pleasant experience!
