Awesome little spot for a meal or some drinks in a fun & lively atmosphere that is simultaneously funky and charming, only opened in October but after spending time in the bar and taking to co-founder Ricky, this place will be a staple of the area for years to come! Great vibes, and top notch folks.

The food and drinks were wonderful, and the vibe of the place is great. The tropical delight drink, Katsu sandwich, and Thai boat noodles were all awesome!

The atmosphere was great. Really cool little cocktail bar. Food was tasty and service was good too.

We tried all the appetizers on the menu and I'd put the calamari as my favorite. I'd also recommend the mango sticky rice and chicken wings. The others were good too but those 3 were my top.

As far as main dishes go, I had the Pad Kee Mao and it was delicious. I do usually like it with a tad more Thai basil but that's a personal preference. The dish was great. I did taste my friend's Thai Boat Noodles and it's not something I'd personally order but it was good as well. I'm just not much of a soup person. I also tried my wife's Kao Moo Grob and the pork belly was cooked really well with a tender inside and a crispy outside. I might eat that more as something to share with your friends then just eat it alone, but it was really good as well.

We mainly went for the food but got a couple drinks and they were alright. We're not big drinkers though so I won't judge that too much even though it's a cocktail bar.

We did have an issue with an allergic reaction after it seems there was a bit of a miscommunication with the front of the house and the back of the house. They took it seriously and it seemed like they do plan to learn from it and educate the staff better on handling allergies. I thank you for not just brushing it off and talking to us about it. I forget the gentleman's name that talked to us, but his mom, Dee I believe, is one of the cooks and kept checking on my wife afterwards. Thank you for that. Dee was really sweet.

Overall, I'd recommend trying it out.

Fresh food. Tasty drinks. Fun vibe. I’ll be back for sure to hangout for longer and try all of the drinks.

Do yourself a favor - Go say hi to Rickey and Boom. Grab yourself a cocktail and some of the best Pad Thai that the city has to offer, and enjoy the thoughtful decor and intimate space. Thank me later!
