Stay away! Rip off.. I ordered the pineapple fried rice I replaced the shrimp with beef when I receive the order it only had three pieces of pineapple no chicken and just beef. After bringing it to the attention of the bald arrogant fella, who happens to be very unprofessional and argumentative. He accused me of eating half the dish (lie) and wanted to charge me half for it. This was a favorite spot but never again!

What a great family owned restaurant, you can tell that the kitchen only puts out quality food. Definitely going to visit again, highly recommend the duck curry and the pad thai!

Unfortunately, our experience here was very disappointing. We ordered two different types of Pad Thai — the traditional Pad Thai and the Lemongrass Pad Thai. While the Lemongrass Pad Thai was actually quite good, the traditional Pad Thai was extremely poor. It tasted nothing like authentic Pad Thai and instead resembled a teriyaki-style noodle dish with the wrong balance of flavors and sauce. We’ve had Pad Thai many times at Thai restaurants all across the country, and this version was unlike any we’ve ever been served — in all the wrong ways. When we mentioned this to our server, he was absolutely wonderful. He handled the situation with professionalism and kindness, immediately showing concern and trying to make things right. He was polite, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care that we were unhappy with the dish. We can’t say enough good things about him — he was the highlight of our visit. Unfortunately, what followed with the chef completely changed the tone of our experience. The chef came out to our table and rather than listening or showing any understanding, he argued with us about how the dish was made “correctly.” He insisted there was nothing wrong and continued debating with us about our personal taste and expectations. It was uncomfortable and unnecessary. We weren’t being rude — we were simply explaining that the dish didn’t taste authentic or enjoyable. Instead of trying to resolve the issue or offer a solution, he became defensive and dismissive. To make things worse, he offered us peanut sauce as if that would somehow fix the issue, which completely missed the point of our concern. The entire interaction felt confrontational and unprofessional. It’s one thing for food to not meet expectations, but it’s another to be argued with by the chef when expressing an honest and polite concern. Overall, our server was outstanding and deserves recognition for his great attitude and customer service, but the behavior of the chef left a very negative impression. We left feeling frustrated and disrespected, which is unfortunate because this situation could have been handled with a simple apology or understanding.

The place looks like a dive bar, but the food is amazing. The restaurant is pretty small, but I've never had to wait to be seated and served.

Our food was delicious & came out way quicker than I was expecting it to. Our server was a very nice young man & when we started ordering modifications, he figured out we were vegan before we had the chance to say it ourselves. That doesn’t happen often & I was very impressed.

Great staff who work hard to provide quality service! The people who work there are very professional and go above and beyond to prove how much they care about the service they provide.
And the food? It's excellent! I highly recommend the spring rolls and the Pad Thai, especially when you're downtown and looking for that certain something.
All in all? 10/10
Come grab some Aroy Thai ASAP!
