This place offers one of the best Thai food in the area. It has a wide selection of dishes to choose from, some of which can't be found in other similar restaurants. Those dishes are quite flavorful and with great portion. We have been visiting this place, dining in or doing takeouts, at least once a month.
Enormous portions are the norm here. Their pad thai was one of the better versions I've had. Great fire to sweet ratio. Basil fried rice was good and flavorful, but I'm not a fan of canned baby corn and there was a lot of it. Fresh rolls were nearly as good as my favorite LA spot, just lacking a little zing from fresh herbs. I'm not a fan of fatty peanut sauce as a dip for these fresh appetizers; they pair much better with a light, sweet, vinegar-based chili sauce, which was sadly not available. Prik king was a mild disappointment. Primarily a fiery green bean dish with red curry, this version was littered with too many other things -- mushrooms, those baby corns (again), snow peas, and peppers.
We're vegetarians and ordered most of the dishes with tofu. The pieces are far, far too large. They barely fit in ones mouth and because they're simply stir fried, lacking in flavor. We pushed aside more than half of the tofu--too big, too much.
Lastly, I pay a lot of attention to garnishes and sauces at Thai restaurants. The spicy fish sauce (vinegar based with Thai chilis) was very good. Pungent and indeed, quite spicy. The red chili sauce tasted like the stuff from a jar.
One gripe: we ordered to go and when I asked for a two additional fish sauces, I was informed I would have to pay for the additional sauces. Really? These were the very small plastic containers that look like a large thimble. We had ordered enough food for four people and I pointed this out to the cashier. How are four people supposed to share a tiny container? Furthermore, those who eat in are welcome to put as much fish sauce as they liked onto their food. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's frustrating to shell out nearly $50 and be rationed to a tiny, single serving of our favorite condiment.
Nice staff, good food, good price! Run-of-the-mill thai kitchen. Good food at a good cost ;)
Awesome and flavorful food, I liked the atmosphere the spot has, and the cashiers were nice. Will definitely visit here again.
Omg! This place is amazing. Best tai restaurant in town. Fantastic high quality food. Great services. A+
