Really really good Thai food. Even the mild is slightly spicy.... They also have some Chinese food which we had orange chicken one of the best around.

Solid Thai spot in Cypress! The food was very good and their chili powder is super spicy. If you get the lunch special, it is $2 cheaper and comes with ice cream and salad, but the portion is slightly smaller. The pad see ew was very flavorful, and even though tofu isn't on the menu it is an option for protein.

The food is enjoyable, yet the service leaves room for improvement. On every visit, the waiter's demeanor has been off-putting, initially seeming like a one-time occurrence, but the consistent rudeness has become quite discouraging. Unfortunately, the unsatisfactory service outweighs the positive dining experience, making it unlikely for me to return.

The food was excellent, along with the service. We sat down and within 15 minutes we had all of our food. The ambiance gives off small, mom and pop type restaurant but those are lowkey one of the best spots to visit.

The food was decent. I got pad Thai, it had good flavor 3.5/5. I also got fried wontons. They were stuffed with chicken 3/5. The prices were fair.The service was just okay, a bit slow. When we walked in we had to go to the counter to let them know we wanted a table, no one to greet us at the door or ask how many were dinning. They sat us in the middle and the AC was on full blast(all other tables around were for 4 people and we were 5 so this was the only choice). After a while we asked if they could turn it off. They did for a bit but then turned it back on. I understand why they turn it on since it seemed it was the only vent in the whole place so I'm sure it got hot in the hallways near the restrooms and other areas. Unfortunately we were sat right under it so it was extremely cold. We were shaking and my friend got a runny nose during the hour we were there. We ate quickly because it was too cold and asked for boxes to take the food home since we didn't want to stay any longer. I heard another table complaining to each other that it was cold, even though they had sweaters and weren't directly under it! Also, fyi they charged an automatic 18% tip to our bill. We were a party of 5. I wouldn't recommend as the food was average and the service wasn't very good, just okay.

Ordered the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew as take-out. Both were tasty as far as Thai food goes, and the prices were decent.One down is the amount of time it takes to get the food. For those two dishes I had to wait a little over 30 minutes. I sat it out in my car. Next time I'll pre-order over the phone.?

This is a great lunch spot; their lunch specials are quite generous in portion and so affordable. For $10.95 each, my buddy and I got a panang curry and red curry special. I'm glad I went with medium spice because his full spice was ultimately too hot for him. Comes with salad and a heart-shaped serving of white rice. I also ordered a papaya salad because I almost always order papaya salad when eating Thai food--ever try making papaya salad? It's hard work and I was quite happy with their large serving of it.Service initially was slow; to be fair, we came in after the lunch rush was mostly over, but it took a while for them to take our order. It's not a fancy spot but the air conditioning felt great on a warm fall day. It was clean and the presentation was appetizing.

Yum!- Second visit in less than a week - that's how good it is!- This place is all about family, and they're working hard.- The two brothers are the kitchen wizards, ensuring your food is top-notch. Just be a bit patient; they'll get to you in no time!Now, onto the mouthwatering dishes:- Pad kee mao, I couldn't resist ordering it again. - Tried it spicy this time; it leaned towards mild, but still oh-so-delicious.- Shrimp fried rice, oh boy, it was bussin'! - Loaded with just the right amount of grilled onions, a definite favorite.And let's not forget:- Reasonable prices that beat most places.- We arrived around 4 PM; it got busy after 5 PM with five parties joining the fun.- Drinks aren't your typical fountain style, but they've got canned sodas and other options.This spot is a winner if you want great food, a family-friendly atmosphere, and prices that won't empty your wallet!

Quality, taste, portion size, menu choices, prices service, parking...all good! The Lunch Special is offered only Tues-Fri now. It used to include weekends. You choose from a long list of entrees & it comes with a mound of rice shaped like a heart & a crisp green salad with delicious peanut dressing. It's a cool deal & a great way to experiment. Some of the meals we've had through the years:- Yellow Curry -- A bowl abundant with a protein choice (we love the shrimp), chunks of potato, carrots & onion in a comforting broth spiked with coconut milk that can Blow Your Head Off if you choose a certain level of spice beyond mild. Medium may be too spicy for some. We can barely handle it. It's delicious & sinus issues may be eradicated. - Wonton Soup -- A lovely presentation of a savory broth brimming with tender wontons, Al dente vegetables, shrimp & chicken.- Pad Thai - the flavor of this classic dish is addicting! There's lots of table seating for a cozy spot & they do a brisk take-out business as well. Thai at its best! Update: They're closed on Monday's. An older menu photo doesn't reflect that.

We went on a Tuesday evening, there were enough seats for a group of 4. The food was served hot and the food was amazing! So much flavor in each dish. We got the pad see ew, drunken noodles, tom kha soup, and panang curry. We did family style and we still had a bit left over to take home.Good service. The employees are nice and accommodating.It's inside a plaza so parking wasn't too difficult to find. But it's a small plaza so I'd recommend carpooling.
