The lemongrass chicken was so good I found myself going back the next night for it again. Good folks, uptempo service and great Thai food. I am used to great Thai food being spoiled for options in the SF Bay Area, but this place goes toe to toe with them. Very impressive.

Many items on the menu can be made vegan, with no eggs, no fish sauce, and using tofu, mixed vegetables or a combination of the two. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable. Cucumber-lemon water was good too!

We ordered custom vegan drunken noodles and asked for extra veg. The spice level was perfect. The noodles were tender, and the sauce was delicious! The fresh rolls list that they come with herbs, but we barely got one tiny leaf of cilantro and mint in our rolls. The accompanying peanut sauce was watery. The service was excellent, quick and pleasant. Nice looking restaurant but small and noisy when full. We give it an A minus rating due to the spring rolls lacking herbs

All of the other positive reviews can’t be wrong. Very pleasant staff and a good chef. They got the “mild spice” request just right, and the savory sauce was so good.

I've been here a few times, and the food is always very good. Pork laab, green chicken curry, garlic fried rice, and vampire pork are my favorite dishes. It can get busy, so Id recommend reservations. The service can get a little iffy because it gets busy. I have had to practice patience waiting for an iced tea.

Absolutely a let down. Ordered food to have for a nice Friday night dinner and ordered in the restaurant for to go. We were told 25 minutes so left and came back at 25-30 minutes from the time of ordering in case it was a few minutes late since they were entirely full in house…… the food we received was not only sub par but had to be reheated since it was cold even though we live minutes from the restaurant. The portions were laughable for the price charged and spring rolls were not even put together. They fell apart as soon as you tried to pull them from the box.
Absolutely a let down to a night I looked forward to.

This place is absolutely wonderful! Not only could they accommodate a big group, they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Reservations are recommended. Food was fresh, fast and with a variety of spice levels. Our group that took over half the restaurant ate almost at the same time, which is impressive in a small space. The service is beyond exceptional. Very attentive and kind.
Honestly, I can’t say enough. Try it, you won’t regret it. . . Make a reservation!!

2 of my friends got food here with me. One friend who does not eat seafood ordered the Pad Thai with beef, and my other Indian friend who does not eat beef due to religious reasons order the Pad See Ew. Half way through eating my friend found a shrimp tail in her beef Pad Thai, and when we inquired and sent back her dish we were informed that all of the meats are cooked together in the same boiler. Meaning the chicken from the Pad See Ew also touched the beef. This is completely unacceptable to make us aware of this After we had ordered and started eating. This has the potential to seriously hurt and kill someone, and it’s also an extremely standard restaurant practice to inform due to allergies, religious reasons, and other things that are none of your business.

the server was rude to me when I came in at 830. They let me sat, and I wasnt taking long to order ad my plan was to be out by 9. But he made sure to tell me that everyone was itching to leave which was awkward and I felt super uncomortable after that. I work as a server, have for years and I would never say that especailly 30 minutes before closing. It was awkward and he kind of had an attitude. Also the food came, and the portions were tiny and somehow there was no flavor. Ive never experienced a place with just no flavor at all. Ive ate a lot of thai food, im part asian and from the city, and this was the worst I had. I think the people giving good reviews honestly dont eat much asian food or out that much or into much seasoning or flavor. Check the other reviews about it being overpriced, smal portions and zero flavor. I was super bummed it was really expensive, the dinner was awkward because the server was kind of rude and the food wasnt good. If you want amazing Thai go to Siam Orchid.
