Have not been a wile. Lunch was ok! But the steamed dumplings were awful. Took one bite and threw out! $$ wasted!

I’m truly beyond disappointed. I have not eaten here in a long time not working close by any more, but was super excited to grab lunch today. I got the massaman curry and chicken larb. The curry itself was sickly sweet and so thin it might as well have been broth. The larb whole ok was very underwhelming for the $15 I spent on it. All in all, I spent over $30 to be very disappointed. I called the restaurant to make sure I’d gotten the right curry or if something might be wrong and was just brushed off. As someone who absolutely loves Thai food and has had more than her share, I can honestly say this is the absolute worst and I will not be going back. Maybe they got a new owner, someone who doesn’t care about the quality of food that they serve or their customers. I understand why the restaurant was completely empty now though.
Update:
I got a response from my review asking me to contact the business privately. I can do that. But as they are the ones with my contact information, not the other way around, I’ve already made an attempt to discuss this issue directly with the restaurant and whoever answered, whether they were staff or owners, could not have cared any less. I’m curious as to why they can neither reach out to me directly or at the very BARE minimum offer a refund for the food that I had to throw away as inedible… or maybe edible if you like sucking on cinnamon sticks… while “authentic” Thai food “may” be sweeter, it should NOT taste like candy.

i recently had tried this place during my lunch, i’ve never considered it before because i just thought it was like a medical place not really understanding but i decided to actually stop and check it out and to my surprise it was phenomenal!!! the food was amazing the service was great but it was rather lonely. peaceful but lonely not a lot of business or staff which makes no sense with how great the place is i highly recommend and encourage to stop by and try and if you are looking for work i’m sure it will be appreciated.

I’m coming here frequently and never got disappointed. Very friendly, the food is always on point and the quality is great.

This place is a one-man show at lunch - this usually isn't a problem for such a small place, but adjust your service expectations accordingly. The food is very good though, probably the best Thai food in the greater Birmingham area. Great flavor and texture for Thai stir-fry. Portion sizes may be smaller than what you're used to for restaurants in the area, though I thought it was just the right amount for a full meal.

Overall, a good, but not great, restaurant. There was nothing wrong with the food, as it tasted good, but it's also not a place I'd necessarily be racing to go back to.

Ordered a takeout meal. The food was prepared on time. The food was delicious and the portion size is just right.

Food taste is actually really good. Portions are a bit small. 16 dollars is outrageous for pad Thai though when you can get bigger portion sizes on the west coast for only 12 dollars. Ordered hottest level Thai spicy and it wasn’t hot. Not even a burn, just a little tingle. Was hoping for hotter. But for the area I guess the food is good tasting. It is Alabama after all. If wasn’t owner I wouldn’t change any recipes, just a little lower prices and bigger portion sizes and extra heat options for spice lovers
