I was staying at a hotel close by this restaurant and accidentally found this place. It was at a walkable distance and walked into it. The place is old and I didn't have a good feeling but after stepping in and started talking to the lady to take my order, I changed my opinion.

They were very precise in making sure my requirement are met, as I am a vegetarian and food was top notch to exactly what I asked. I had veggie rolls (fresh) with no meat and curry rice and they both are fantastic. The rice could take a bit more salt but that's to my liking. They checked in me a few times to make sure I was doing ok, which is very rare these days. I will go back and try more. Please encourage restaurants like this.

I cannot even begin to explain how amazing this place is! They have incredible customer service, beyond reasonable prices and the portions are extremely large. There is very little wait on food arriving and there is always someone to check on you.

Please come support them! They are delightful!

Their food takes my stress away during finals week when I don’t have time to cook. Efficient, tasty, kind, and reasonably priced, even a college student can get dinner there a few times during midterms or finals week.

Nice, clean place. Food was DELICIOUS. I had the pad Thai, while others at my table had the pumpkin curry. Very good flavors, we'll be back again for all of our Thai cravings. I've heard good things about the Tom Kha soup...

We didn’t go for the atmosphere. And Nevermind the atmosphere, the food makes up for it. Very casual dining. Loved the Pad Thai, Yellow Curry (mild), brown and white rice. The Tempura Shrimp was good, but different than Japanese tempura (didn’t realize it is a Thai dish too)…darker more heavy tempura, but good. Thai tea was good, but not the best we’ve had. Overall, and most importantly, it ā€œhit the spot!ā€ More than satisfied. California not only knows how to party, but knows how to Thai Food. (Wah-wah…stupid joke.)

I had Pad See Ew(beef) and it was delicious. Not too oily and the sauce was good. Beef was tender and good quality. Price was slightly cheaper than the others.

Great food and service! You could taste the quality in the ingredients and cooking 100%. Felt like they did a great job keeping oil usage light too

Food is average tasting, take it from someone who has been to many Thai restaurants. I regretted to spend around $40 eating here.

The service is the worst, they didn't ask for your permission to take (grab) the dirty dish right after you finished eating and hand you the bill right away, rushing you to pay and get out pronto. They also gossip to each other saying things about the customers (I happened to understand Thai).

Definitely not coming back here anymore, BYE !

My server, Ms. Noi, was very pleasant and quickly served my green papaya salad, green curry with pork and eggplant, and rice. It was more than I could eat, so later she kindly made me to-go containers. Then, I treated myself to their delectable fresh mango with sticky rice. I reheated the leftovers in my hotel micro the next day for a very yummy lunch.

Had a craving for thai food and decided to give this spot a try after seeing glowing reviews. I was disappointed. The food was flavorless and didn't seem very fresh. I ordered pad thai, pad kee mao, Massaman curry, side of white rice, and vegetable egg rolls.

The egg rolls were ok. Oddly enough, they seemed a bit stale.

The pad thai was not good. The noodles were dry and seemed old.

Pad kee mao had no spice and flavor. Lettuce and cucumber that accompanied the dish tasted rancid.

Massaman curry was just ok. Again, lacking in flavor and there were clumps of what looks like sauce powder throughout the curry broth.

Definitely won't go back and will find another thai place.

I ordered from here for delivery. Heard from a friend that this is the best authentic Thai food restaurant. It was very good. The food tasted like the food I had when I visited Thailand a few years ago! Delicious.
