This place has some of the best curry! I love when I’m in the area and can dine in. Small, quaint, and humble atmosphere.

The food was delicious! I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai lunch special, with extra peanuts, and they truly delivered in favor, texture and a boat load of peanuts! The salad dressing was also light and creamy and tasty. My server, Liberty, was helpful, friendly, and prompt. 10/10

I had the cashew chicken and my wife had fried tofu and fried banana. It was ok, but the chicken was a bit dry and bland compared to other Thai restaurants.

Our visit to this place was a complete letdown. From the moment we arrived, there was no warm welcome—just a bland offer of a table. Then came the waitress, an older Asian lady, who wordlessly plopped down two glasses of ice water. When I politely asked for one without ice, she shot us a look so cold it could’ve frozen the drink solid. Her attitude was downright uninviting, and we weren’t about to tolerate it. So, before even ordering, we walked out—loud and clear, the message was received: we wouldn’t be coming back.

So before we could order anything, we got up and left. The message was clear: We wouldn’t be coming back.

Food is great when delivered by any service. However, if you choose to go there, the younger woman is rude and arrogant. This is my third and final time visiting.

We’ve been coming here for years for sometimes very good, but mostly decent to sometimes mediocre thai food. The service has never been anything exceptional and phone ordering feels like someone put a gun to your head type of thing, but I guess we’ve just been writing that part off.

Unfortunately, what I had originally written was deleted so I’m going to summarize by asking you for the sake of food integrity and your own dignity, do not support this establishment’s unsafe and gross food practices and especially their very inconsiderate, rude and just lame attitude they have no problem giving a lifelong regular customer. Or, go ahead and support them if you want to always wonder if they made a mistake and gave your order to someone else who searched through your order for their order, opening the boxes up to see it was all wrong…. but then… this restaurant calls them a couple of times telling them they needed to hurry up because you’re standing there waiting asking where your lunch is? I’ll tell you where… it’s down the road in a stranger’s kitchen getting packed back up and driven back to this rude place who just told a person who was now late for work that they needed to bring your lunch back! Ope! your lunch just got back and let me tell you those egg rolls were tempting! BON APETITE! I’m sure anyone reading this would be cool with that right?! yeah, neither were we.

On top of that bizarre (with the possibility of disgusting ) and unsafe food handling policy they have….not only that…. they asked my now late to his customer bf of mine to pay the difference of the orders and loudly argued that this was somehow his problem and still needed to pay the total for our order. I get that we ordered what we did and we were fully prepared to pay for it (which he did cuz he’s a nice guy) but wouldn’t you of thought to idk not berate the guy and instead comp the meal, offer a free appetizer next time, give him a free tea or something… perhaps APOLOGIZE for your error that’s making him late and inconveniencing his customer??? I mean anything but make a customer pay more money after driving back and forth with someone else’s food that you gave him and he trusted it to be right!

The staff and management here suck and we will not be back, no matter how good the pineapple curry w shrimp is!

it's a very long time to wait for food, why does the person who takes the order go to the kitchen and put food on with his bare hands.

Pad thai with chicken - funny color and chicken was rubbery. Spicy basil also a funny color but was at least palatable. Unfriendly service, treated like I was trying to steal their food!

New in town and visited based on reviews. Food is amazing! I thought I had good Thai food in my old neighborhood, but this is better. The Pad Kee Mow was perfection, service friendly, warm and prompt. Setting isn’t fancy, more like eating in someone’s home. But it adds to the charm of the place. I’ll be a regular for sure!
