My first Thai food since being in Thailand, and it was fantastic. Excellent food and service. These folks are really good at what they do. I had the Panang Curry with Duck, and my wife had the spicy noodles with shrimp — both highly recommended. Get a higher spice level for a more realistic Thai taste. Deserts are meant to feed two or three, so definitely share those. The golden banana and coconut ice cream were delicious.
Outstanding take out. Best pad see yew I’ve had in 20 years. There was lots of egg, which is where most other Thai restaurants are skimpy. The owner was super friendly and all the dishes were wonderful. Highly recommend it.
Their Pad Thai is very yummy, and the sticky rice alone is worth the visit! The tempura vegetable appetizer was plentiful (for 5) and delicious, with a nice variety of vegetables. Everyone was happy with their selections. The owner and staff were very friendly and attentive. The decor is modest with more of a local feel, but we're locals - not looking for fancy decor but good food!
If you are looking for authentic Thai dishes this is the place. Most Thai restaurant I've been to put a bit too much sugar in for me. They even have the Thai lemongrass sausage which is very tough to find in most that restaurant I've been to. Along with the sausage, I ordered two dishes. The seafood and red chicken curry. Both where are excellent as well as the service. Prices for good as well as the ambience and service. I will definitely revisit when I'm in the area.
Great food and this is coming from a guy who doesn't eat Thai food often. Don't know what the other comments are saying. Great staff and great food.
