Decent Thai food. I had the Tom Yum and Green Curry Chicken which were both tasty and a moderate level of spiciness. Maybe 3 chillies. Also had a Thai iced Tea which was delicious. Bit of an odd vibe for a Thai restaurant as it also serves as a coffee shop and not much Thai decoration

Good Thai authentic food with cozy atmosphere. Just recommend, basically the food here It’s isnt spicy for foreigner, I’m Thai so i request an extra spicy! My recommended dish is the fried fish one (i dont remember the name) which is the crispy fried fish with sweet and sour sauce and a little bit spicy was great! And wings with basil are also good

I love coming here! They have affordable and good drinks, specials throughout the week, good thai food for dinner. It’s a vibe! I would say maybe they could improve upon their food options at the coffee counter, because they clearly can make some good stuff, so show it off in the baking too! Otherwise, it’s a great local place and I’m glad it’s here, cuz I need coffee.
