This is a hidden gem. So welcoming to everyone who walks in! We came on a Friday at 6 pm, an hour before closing. We ordered Pad Thai, Spring rolls, Boat Noodles, and their signature Sour Pork Ribs. The food was hot and delicious. If you are someone who prefers a more sour pallette like me, this place is a must! If I were to critique one thing, it would be that I prefer my noodles more firm, so the noodles here were a bit too soft for my liking. I loved my experience here and this may be my new favorite place for Thai cuisine in St Paul.

Service was great! The server was attentive. We were greated as soon as we got in. Water was brought out fairly quickly. Ordered our entrees which came out pretty quick. A cozy Cafe to enjoy a quick meal. Only reason I didn’t give it the full 5 stars is it seemed like the spring rolls were pre-made because the wrap was cold and a bit hard—not overly hard. It would’ve tasted better if it was made fresh as soon as we ordered it. The spring roll was a bit small compared to other spring rolls I’ve had at other restaurants. I wanted to give this cafe a try. Overall, it wasn’t so bad.

Nice folks. My brother and I had lunch here in part because of the Strib review. The sour pork ribs were really interesting and delicious. The fish cakes were good, and the little cucumber chili condiment was bright and tasty. We ordered panang curry with chicken, and this was not good. The chicken was rubbery and mushy. There were a few sad slices of bell pepper, and two makrut lime leaves. No spice, very bland and sad.

Their food is very fresh and very flavorful. If you haven’t tried their tendon soup. It’s a must try. Customer service is great. Me and my little family will be returning customers and I recommend to others to go enjoy their food.

Went for a late lunch. Greeted by the owner; super friendly and inviting. Ordered 4 main dishes to explore. Everything was superb! Great flavors well balanced. Sour pork is incredibly succulent. Easily the best Thai in the metro! Excited to get back for more adventures! Thanks for everything

Delicious food. Amazing staff. I recommend the sour pork and the green curry fried rice (chicken is a must for that dish). Soooooo yummy!

Had an amazing time there! Food was fresh and delicious with flavors. The only thing I wasn’t too big of fan of was the Papaya salad. It was too fishy for me. Customer service was great and prices were good too. Highly recommend!

Lived in TH 2 years and I always ate the stir-fry Chinese broccoli with fried pork dish. I have been looking for a similar dish here in MN and finally found the closest to it!
