Came here on a whim. Truly amazing thai food.

We got papaya salad, roti with curry, mussels for appetizers. Papaya salad was on point. I would say that the mussels are the best I ever had. Love the roti as well. We in fact got another serving of them both.

Grilled beef and curry for mains. The beef was tasty, note that the portions are a little smaller than you might expect (not a big deal, tasted good still)

If you are...

Phenomenal restaurant which is shockingly not busy. Every dish I've had has been great, but the coconut beef, the curries, the sweet roti dessert were highlights. They have a great wine selection and also do corkage.

Food was excellent so was the service. One of the pictures on the wall stunned me, having a two year old. What do you think of the baby smoking a cigarette in that picture on the wall.
