Order was stated to pickup at 4:50pm. Place was closed. Went around back and person doing some preparation after 15-20 minutes said owner was supposed to be there at 4:30. Place opened at close to 4:25, and received my order at near 5:30. Owner made “delayed in traffic” excuse. The food was very good, but the restaurant both inside and out was dirty and shabby!

Who puts onions in PAD SEE EW?!?!? Apparently this place.... AND THESE WERE BIG CUTS OF ONION! I was shocked and confused that they possibly gave me Pad Kee Mao instead?The noodles were soft, but the dish was overall bland and just tasted like onions. I didn't taste any sweetness or soy sauce. It was also swimming in a puddle of oil at the bottom. The chicken was very tender though. They give lots of broccoli too.

We decided to try out this place on a whim and I'm so happy we did!We called in ahead of time and the entire order took less 15min. It was a Tuesday night, an hour before closing, and wasn't busy when we arrived. In fact, we were the only patrons. TAKE OUT ONLY - There are no tables inside the establishment, so don't expect a dine-in date night unless you intend to hang out in their back parking lot and eat in your car. One interesting benefit to this restaurant is that they offer you the choice to pick your vegetables! PORTIONS & PRICING - Portions are super generous! Pricing based on quality + quantity is very reasonable compared to other places across the Bay Area.SERVICE - Based on the interactions over the phone and upon pick-up, service was pretty standard. HOUSE PAD THAI ($14) - This was absolutely *chef's kiss* delicious! It was soooo flavorful, and the noodles were just perfect. Ingredients consisted of chicken (which were abundant in quantity and size), carrots, zucchini, bean sprouts, green onions, eggs, and tofu. For an additional fee you can choose other proteins. They even packed the chopped peanuts in a separate container which I really appreciated. TOM KHA SOUP ($16) - We ordered a large and the 32oz container was filled to the brim. This was also amazing! It was still piping hot when we got home and opened it. I almost burnt my lips because it was so hot. It came mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, zucchini, and onions. The flavors were very well balanced. PAD SEE EW ($14) - He ordered it with chicken and shrimp (+$2). I tried a little bit of it and I thought it was just ok. Nothing to write home about. He felt the same. Their standard ingredients consisted of eggs, onions, and carrots. The menu says it comes with broccoli too, but I don't recall seeing any in there.THAI MILK TEA ($5) - It was pretty good. It was sweet though. Like REALLY sweet, if you like that. I'm not sure if the sweetness level can be customized or if boba is offered for an additional fee as I didn't ask. If you're looking for a nice little hole-in-the-wall restaurant, this might be your spot! I'll definitely be coming back to try their other dishes.Don't forget to check-in for 20% off your order! :)

Stopped by tonight to grab a quick dinner. We ordered two noodle dishes. The first was the garlic noodles with basil, medium spice with chicken and they added bean sprouts. The second pad see-ew. Both of the dishes were flavorful, veggies felt fresh and portions were generous. They also had plenty of chicken. I was also impressed that the pad see ew noodles were not stuck together. The young woman at the counter was polite, patient and had good customer service. I asked which dish of the garlic noodles was most popular she told me and then informed me of the difference between the dishes. I only took a picture of the already started Pad See-Ew for reference on the noodles having a good texture. Hope you all enjoy!

Glad we found this place. We love Thai food and have been to many Thai restaurants in the Bay Area. One can always nitpick any place whether their food is authentic, this place does a great job at a reasonable price. We ordered panang curry with chicken, pad kee mao with chicken and basil eggplant with extra veggies and tofu. Everything was delicious with fresh and quality ingredients. We asked for mild spicy and the spice level was just right. My son who normally doesn't eat Thai curry actually liked the panang curry. We will try their green curry next time. We also love that you can select the veggies that go in each dish, sure saves the trouble of asking "no this or that" or "please add this or that". Fast, friendly service, generous portions. Everything a no frills, high quality takeout should be.

Delicious yellow curry chicken with lots of onions and potatoes. I order it once a week! I ask for just a little spice and they are always accommodating. This restaurant is take out only-- there is no seating.

OMG, so good. I had vegetable pad Thai, rice, chicken curry, BBQ chicken and crispy shrimp. It was all so fresh, vegetables were perfectly cooked - not like they'd been sitting there stewing all day. Very happy with my experience. My husband ordered and he was extremely happy as well.

It's a hole in the wall kinda place and it's take out only but the food is amazing! We've ordered there multiple times and they have always been consistent. The prices are good and portions are huge so it's very good value. The Tommy's garlic noodles were so yummy and the shrimps are huge! The yellow curry and massamun curry are very flavorful. Don't let the exterior of the building deter you you also, order take out and you won't regret it.

Their pad thai... SO delicious. I order it at least once a week. It's a staple in my household and the portions are really generous. Great leftovers too! Recently tried the Thai beef salad and wow. Super flavorful and the perfect amount of heat. One of my favorite places to eat in the bay

Really good Pad Thai. The bonus, is the size of their portion, so worth it.

So authentic and good took me back to Bangkok

The food was delicious! We ordered the pad Thai and pad kee mow. The noddles were fresh and soft. The spice level was the perfect amount and the food was done when requested. The portions were big and let let you pick two vegetables to add to your plate. Would definitely recommend.
