Best Thai I've ever had!

Kristal Denis

Absolutely horrible food, water of time and money. A pile of greasy rubbish with no flavour, no spice. When you ask for hot sauce it’s cheap red pepper flakes, or cheap red pepper flakes in canola oil. The table beside us was also asking for the complaint department for their gross greasy flavourless unspicy Thai food. Server was lovely, but food was inedible.

Very friendly service! The food was very clearly authentic and really tasty food. The server was running the whole place herself, and clearly it caused a small lag in service but not a big deal at all. If you want some delicious Asian cuisine in an area that is sorely lacking in it, you should definitely check this restaurant out!

The best peanut sauce I've ever had in my life.

Some of the best Thai I've eaten ever, and I'm from Ontario.

While I personally found the food be quite good, it lacked the intensity (and heat) that I have had at other Thai restaurants - perhaps that's just length of time since I last had Thai food, or a slightly different range of dishes we ordered.
The atmosphere here is wonderful. The various ornaments and detail on the furniture very intriguing.
While the food did arrive much quicker than anticipated, we found the service to be merely adequate (but not great)
The people who own and run the business are wonderful.

Very nice little restaurant, lovely decor. Food is amazing, very flavorful, beautiful vibrant color. The people there are always nice, very happy. Some of the best spicy food I have had in a while. Portions are ok, not big but not tiny either. I say it's worth the visit to enjoy some great food and people.

A gem in the center of Keremeos.
All around great service and food was very flavourful.
Also tried a couple of Thai beer.
The atmosphere and decor was well done. My only suggestion would be to lower the ceiling lighting 20%

Been to Thailand many times. Honestly, best Thai food in BC. Always worth a stop on the way to the Kootenays. Hidden Gem.

Tiny portions, mainly white rice, skimpy ingredients otherwise. Rather flavourless. Do not recommend. Quite awful ? in fact.

The quality of the food left quite a bit to be desired. The fried rice was a mush, the chef making the curry appeared to not have been able to choose between a soup or a paste. The portions were disastrously small (I went with 2 petite ladies who don't eat a lot...).

Paid $73 after tax and tips and we were all still quite hungry. Unfortunately, we came to the conclusion that we ought to have just driven to a nearby McDonald's or Timmies. Would not recommend.
