I was so looking forward to their Pad Thai. I asked for spicy and just got crushed red pepper on the top. It sadly tasted more like pasta then Pad Thai sweet with a sweet tomato or pepper base but not the depth of flavors I am accustomed to a Pad Thai. Next time I will try White Elephant when I this area.

Very authentic Thai food, everything was super delicious. I will come back!
Great food!
As a huge Thai food lover, I make it a point to try local Thai spots wherever I go — and this place definitely stands out! We ordered the Pad Kee Mao and Pad See Ew, and both were extremely delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, and I really appreciated the depth of flavor from the Thai spices they use. The Pad See Ew had a nice touch with sliced garlic mixed in — such a great detail that elevated the dish.
What really impressed me was how flavorful everything was compared to other Thai spots in town. You can tell they take pride in their recipes and use authentic ingredients.
The only downside for me was the portion size for the price — it felt a little on the small side. For the cost, I don’t think one dish is quite enough to leave you full. That said, the quality is high, and I’d still come back for the flavors alone!
Omgggggg was so good very authentic Thai food. Plenty of free street parking. After 6pm no $ meter

Extremely disappointing experience
I ordered food through Uber Eats, and this was honestly one of the worst delivery experiences I’ve ever had. The packaging arrived completely soaked and falling apart — the container was crushed, everything leaked out, and the food was absolutely inedible. I couldn’t eat any of it.
It’s clear that no care was taken in packing the food properly. It was a total waste of money, and I was left hungry and frustrated. I had to go through Uber Eats support to report the issue — no response from the restaurant itself.
I do not recommend this place to anyone. What should have been a nice meal turned into a ruined evening.
The food is good with nice spicy flavors. However this food hall leaves much to be desired. It’s cold and dark and dirty. Women’s restroom has a code, but there was still feces on the wall. Male restroom requires asking security to let you in, but they don’t even have hand soap.

In a weird little food court, casual street vendor vibes, the food is delicious
