The red curry was pretty bland, I asked for it very very spicy and it was mild at best. Service didn't ask if it was spicy enough. Prices keep going up and serving size keeps getting smaller. I received a very small scoop of rice which was gone before I was 1/3 done.

I really liked the food here! Came out quick and our waiter was awesome.
We came our labor day and there was one guy running the entire floor. He was doing an amazing job. We got the Pad Ki Mow and the chicken skewers. Our food was very fresh and very tasty!
