2.5⭐️(not 3). Been here literally a couple of times, even recently for a birthday. I walked in and was the only customer present. I kindly asked if they can turn the music down a little as it felt like a concert. The waiter said no. I guess what the employees were playing was their jam?

I always would come here the weekend staff is super nice and accommodating the weekdays aren’t the best they kept telling me that the order would take long as if they didn’t want me to even eat there. I usually come the weekends and is familiar with the staff I love them but tonight wasn’t the greatest experience at the Thai thing.

I ordered a take out dinner, checking the 1) no spice option and 2) wrote explicitly in the instructions “zero spice please. They made my take out so damn spicy. Some people have problem with spicy food and this restaurant did the complete opposite of what explicitly requested and asked for :-( Won’t order from here again.

We ordered the Chicken Larb and the Beef Pad Thai which was delicious. The food is very tasty. This is a nice neighborhood place with outdoor seating. The service was great on this Thursday evening, and would come back again to explore the menu which invites patrons to be creative. I ordered a nice Thai Iced coffee that was served in a Mason jar.

Parking: A small lot that fits maybe 3 or 4 cars and one ADA spot.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to the entrance.

Yellow curry was the most watery curry I've ever had in my life. And the chicken isn't good -- tastes as if it was frozen and no seasoning whatsoever (including salt). Zero spice (and they don't ask you how much spice you want) so this place seems very Americanized (which the music selection supports).

The rice is some of the worst rice I've had at a restaurant -- super mushy as if I attempted to make rice at home in a rice cooker (which I'm not skilled at).

Egg rolls are pretty solid -- dripping with too much oil though.

Thai tea was solid.

Food came out too hot; had to wait a few minutes to eat.

Nice interior and good service. Fair prices ($32 for the above).

To be fair, went about 20-25 minutes before they closed so. But honestly the food was pretty gross and could not wait to get it out my system the next morning.

Ordered with a few friends:

wings: fatty and not good
noodles / pad thai and sew : beef gross and not that flavorful
fried rice: not bad / spicy

Dining in here and ordering to go are two different experiences. Our driver got here as quickly as one can and yet the food was cold due to the packaging. It may be in an attempt to keep the food from steaming, but Cheap to-go cardboard containers with the tops mostly open isn't cutting it. Also, ordered (medium-spicy) Tom Kha and it was literally flavorless, like an ingredient(s) was missing. I Added MSG and some spicy chili crisp and it only started to resemble what it was supposed to taste like. The entire meal (one small soup, one stir-fried chicken, one pad Thai and a side of sticky rice) was like a bad experience at an all-you-can-eat buffet, not a $90 dinner.

I ordered shrimp Pad Thai and egg rolls. The rolls were very good but the Pad Thai was unrecognizable. It may have been an “off night” for the chef but whatever happened in kitchen, for starters the shrimp were burned, and it just got worse from there. Instead of having that Palm sugar background with it was bitter from being burned and the dish was basically a disaster and inedible

Most authentic Thai I've had on the mainland. Excellent food and wonderful service! My husband got the Thai fried rice--also delicious.

Vegetarian options: Organic spring rolls and panang curry w/tofu and veggies were both divine.

The Pad Thai was really really tasty, although I asked for it medium spicy and it was really really spicy, but it was still very tasty!

Authentic delicious, not expensive, I think the food here is totally satisfying, much better than many upscale Thai restaurants. It also has quick friendly and efficient staff. I will be back for more.
