This place is eh the appetizers were a NO for me the salad was drenched in sauce that tasted salty and same with the sausage also salty. The entrees were okay but I feel like another Thai place could do it much better.
The place is cute and the service was nice.

Always hits the spot! We usually get their Tom Kha with steamed tofu, Pad See Ew with mock duck, & the Panang curry with fried tofu or mock chicken. Their cocktails are pretty good too. All reasonable prices with large portions, & so easy to make everything vegan. Service is great & they're open late every night. What a gem!

Food was great but service was terrible. We never got our cutlery even after our food had arrived. We actually had to take it from the table next to us. We ordered dessert, and they took away the plates but not the cutlery. So we ate the desserts with the new cutlery that they put it with, next to the dirty cutlery from before. At the start menu was tossed on our table and finally when we asked for receipts, it was like they didn’t hear it. The servers clearly doesn’t want...
