I love the atmosphere and the service.

However when you look at the menu you think the prices look reasonable ($13 for pad see ewe) is maybe $3-$5 less than the next Thai restaurant, but when you get the meal you see why its cheaper - theyre like half orders. I had to get 2 noodles dishes ($26 together) before I felt satisfied with the portion.. but that makes it cost more than any other place - really.

So id suggest, coming here for a light...
Best tofu pad Thai I’ve ever had, sauce is so rich and complex and comforting and just the right texture. It isn’t excessively sweet like some Thai places trying to appeal to white people, I’m sensitive to sugar and no problems here. Chose no egg (eating vegan/plant-based) and they cooked plants so well that it fit the traditional style and the sauce powers everything. Outdoor dining smoking allowed in a nice garden area, requires 3 steps. $14

Vegetarian...
Almost missed this little cafe, just happened to search for Pad Thai while driving up the 880. Friendly service, tasty food. Ordered the Pad Thai and the Kao Kra Proa (with chicken), looking forward to trying this place again and other items on the menu!
