I heard good things about this restaurant so I decided to try for myself. Disappointing is an understatement. The food did not have much flavor and it was lukewarm. The staff did offer to reheat it, but I declined as it hardly had any flavor anyhow. The picture I posted was the Pad Thai I ordered after I took a few bites and was done with my disappointment of a meal, that was quite the waste of money, unfortunately.

The owner works the floor herself and is very kind. The food was excellent. I think I died and went to heaven after having the food here.

Go to for Thai take out.
Good portions and delicious food.

Parking lot can be a little awkward but there is generally open spaces.

Best Thai in Tucson. A bit out of the way for me since I'm downtown, but I come here at least once a week anyway. Also great for vegetarians.

A true hidden gem—hands down the best Thai food in Tucson (and that includes my time in food cities like SF and Portland!). Every dish is bursting with fresh, authentic flavor and clearly made with care. Some of my go-to favorites are the Tom Yum (Gai or Koong), Panang Curry with broccoli, Larb Neua, and the papaya salad—but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The staff are warm, welcoming, and make you feel like family. Dining here is like being transported straight to Thailand. This place deserves all the love and support!

Was so happy to finally find really good Thai food by us. The larb beau beef lettuce wrap appetizer was so flavorful. We also had the yum yai salad. All the ingredients were incredibly fresh. For curry we had the massaman and it was delicious. The service was outstanding. Went there for much with some friends and really enjoyed the atmosphere.

My mother and I came in for the first time & right away the staff was friendly & very informative. We were given recommendations & even a heads up on the not so favorite dishes, which I completely appreciated. We ordered the Drunken noodles with chicken and Pad King Sod... and they were BOTH AMAZING! The flavor was INSANE and absolutely delicious. For my first time eating Thai food I was beyond Impressed. Not that I had any doubt I would like it, especially because it smelt Delicious from outside! Straight homemade and cooked with LOVE you could literally taste the LOVE.
