Every dish was excellent, perfectly cooked, seasoned, and delicious. The crispy tofu was light and fluffy, the soup tangy and filled with fresh seafood, pad Thai (my fav) was perfect, and I could keep going (we ordered a lot of dishes!). Easily the best Thai restaurant around.

We have eaten here many times, and the sister restaurant in Northridge. Used to be good, but our last visit was horrible. We were celebrating a birthday and ordered chicken satay. It was literally raw and disgusting. In fact, all of the chicken dishes that we had, including Pad Thai, the chicken was just having a bad night... In other words, toxic chicken! There were four of us and three out of four got sick for a good 24 hours. I'm talking stomach and digestive issues that you don't want to hear about. Very disappointed in this place. When I called them the next day, they were willing to give me back half of my check, but if you think about it, that means I paid half for them to get me sick. Unfair. Uncool. Untenable. I just don't understand how restaurant owners just don't make things, right For their patrons. Besides the chicken being bad that night, the tempura was burnt and tasted disgusting, and the shrimp were quite questionable. Sorry I don't have anything good to say. Too bad the owner just didn't work it out right for me. If they're not providing a quality restaurant experience, you should probably avoid this place. I will...

The food is really good but like a lot of places in LA, their posted hours are different from their actual hours. What's the point of saying you close at 10 when you stop serving food at 930?

With the catchy outdoor lights and better reviews for Thai food on Ventura Blvd, I was really looking forward to trying this Thai spot. So I finally went for lunch with a friend, and... was pretty disappointed, unfortunately. I've eaten a lot of Thai food in my life and have a pretty good understanding of what makes popular Thai dishes good vs GREAT vs okay vs meh... Maybe it was just the lunch time cook that day, but never have I had such a bad pad see ew that I didn't really want to eat it. It made my face go... "wth??" Lol... But my favorite, yellow curry, should make up for it, yeah? Wrong. No flavor at all... and no potatoes! First time ever wishing there was salt on the table at a Thai restaurant. Anyway... I really wanted to like this spot, but unfortunately I won't be going back.

I picked up my order last night and I was so disappointed. The orange chicken so dry and the chicken pad Thai gave my friend food poisoning. The Northridge site is so much better. Do not come to this location!

This is one of the best thai restaurants that we have been to. We got the pad see ew, the beef noodle soup the crispy tofu and the chicken skewers. Everything was delicious and filling. The soup was tasty with a slightly sweet flavor. The chicken skewers were almost like candy with the honey dipping sauce. The pad see ew was good but it is very hard to mess this dish up.

We had a WONDERFUL Christmas Eve dinner here last night. Service and food were impeccable. They changed their Pad Thai... for the better! Everything was so good! Highly recommend!

The best Thai food in the city! Food is amazing, their takeout operation is always flawless and their prices are reasonable. I dream about their Spicy Seafood soup!
