This is my family's new favorite Thai/Lao restaurant in Alameda. Flavors are excellent and I especially appreciate the attention to details on the Pad Kee Mao/See Ew noodles. Most places will not take the time to separate the flat noodles so that they are not served in clumps. This place does. Now, if only Thai restaurants, in general, would start tenderizing their meats, I'd eat it way more often. I know this is a tangent, but honest question, why don't Southeast Asian restaurants tenderize their meats?
Update: Cant speak about other meats, but the beef is now tenderized! Thank you!

Looking for a quiet place to eat and enjoy some hearty Thai food or even tasty pork porridge? Here’s the place to go.
We usually go for late brunch, just before lunch hours and it tends to be quiet - both for our sake and also for other diners since we have two rambunctious toddlers.
Their Khao Thom, pork porridge, is delicious. Our toddlers like this every time we go. Heart warming, tasty, and good amount of protein - minced pork and hard boiled eggs (which we would smash up). Only thing lacking is vegetables for it to be a well rounded meal.
Tried yellow curry with chicken today. It was good though could improve as the potato was a little on the hard side. Maybe since it was early, it was still cooking? Hopefully better next time.

Prices went up by a lot in the past few months on some dishes. Khao piek for $22. Are you crazy!

BEWARE, they will overcharge you and you wouldn’t know. I had to ask for a detailed receipt, wait 5 min while they figure out how their system works in order to find that I was charged extra without that info being on the menu. When I told them that it wasn’t on the menu, that I shouldn’t be charged this, she got mad and started acting all mad that it was beef and it is extra. I would have left it as ‘tip’ if she was apologetic and actually owned up to their mistakes and tried hard to fix it.
Food: Ok, very salty and sauce is overdone on pad thai. Not tasty
Charge: Price on the menu was 15.95$ for pad thai and pad see ew. No additional price ANYWHERE on the page or menu. I was charged 18.95$ for ‘beef’.
Never again

We enjoyed our brunch at this cute and friendly mom & pop style Lao and Thai place! Great savory/spicy breakfast alternative to western sweet breakfast places! Loved the old school chinatown-style decor and the karaoke style covers of pop songs playing ??
Maya the owner took our orders and was super sweet with our toddler ?
We ordered and really loved the Khao Thom (rice porridge with ground chicken/bone broth and egg), Pad Grapow Chicken (Krapow Gai) and our kid got two pancakes (syrup and jelly at the table- wish it came with butter though!).
Also at the table were 4 types of homemade chili oil / spicy vinegars!
They’re in the process of finding what hours work best, so currently they’re open from 10a-6pm M-Th, 9am to 8pm Fri-Sat, closed Sunday. They also will occasionally close from 4 to 5pm for dinner prep!
