My first visit to this restaurant. Service was quick and plesant. I ordered take out. My order included Shrimp and Chicken Pad Thai, Beef with mixed vegetables, Satay Chicken skewers and Pot Stickers. Only the beef dish was eatible, everything else tasted the same, I believe all I tasted was fish sauce. Will not eat here again

There was a long wait time for our food, almost an hour long. The menu also didn’t have a lot of diverse options. We ordered the Pad See Ew and it’s main flavor was suger, really sweet. Also ordered the salad and it was just a chopped salad with peanut sauce, again really sweet. The wonton soup was good, and egg rolls too. Service overall was okay and we were treated kindly, but the wait time really took away from the experience as everyone couldn’t eat together because the meals came out intermittently.

Sadly…I was very disappointed as I have dined in at this restaurant before. Take out tonite, was cashew chicken. I specified med. spicy, and extra onions and cashews. The food had little to no flavor. Not spicy, and quite bland. When I arrived home to eat…I also found the tiniest box of rice…child size. Barely enough for an adult size portion. It was more like a left over size one might take home. Also, I wanted to order fresh spring rolls..a typical appetizer. This was un available. I had hoped the main dish would be flavorful and satisfying, but no, it was not.

Restaurant should be called Lie Thai instead because there was nothing authentic about it. Even the dishes I asked for spicy were grossly sweet with barely any heat including the Pad Thai and the Tom Kha soup. The sauce on the beef salad tasted like Catalina dressing for those of you who are old enough to remember that. Such as disappointment.

Excellent Thai food! We found it very easy to park.and get in and out of the shopping mall and enjoy this wonderful small Thai restaurant. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant was very clean. We had their fresh spring rolls with plum sauce, cucumber salad, ginger chicken and cashew chicken meals. Our food was served very hot and fresh! I highly recommend this Thai food restaurant! The atmosphere was very enjoyable, as they were playing some wonderful music sung by Thai musicians.
