After many trips to Thailand for both business and holiday and after years of eating Thai food in the DC area and NYC, I can say unequivocally the worst green chicken curry I’ve ever had. The chicken was like wood chips. We left it. The drunken noodles were ok. The sever was brusque. We picked this place b/c our other top choices were packed and we love Thai food. My fav Asian cuisine. Big letdown here.

This place is SO GOOD!!! Best Thai food around. If you want a great service experience, great atmosphere, and AMAZING food— this is the place. They are so much and the food is so authentic, affordable, and delicious. YUM!!!

Husband and I was driving cross country and we slept close to this restaurant about 11 mins of walk and the food is pretty good. We ordered it for takeout. They didn’t give us any utensils and napkins at all which they should for take out but it’s ok. Good thing we pack our own utensils. All the food that we ordered was good and spicy.
