It’s surprisingly not as crowded as other Asian places in the area and prices are slightly higher but the quality more than makes up for it.

They have many specials and it’s authentic. Highly recommended.. the best Thai food I’ve tried in San Rafael.
January 2025
My first time here and thought the food -- and portion -- was excellent. I had the Garlic Ginger with Chicken and Shrimp. Lots of mushroom, onion and red pepper too. Super fresh shrimp. It was very, very good.

Great, low-key service and an attractive space. This will be my go-to Thai spot downtown from now on.
December 2024
Food was some of the best Thai food I've had outside Thailand.
Service was quick and the server/owner was very friendly
It was very quiet on a Friday night(we were only ones in there) so it had no atmosphere which is a shame as the food is well worth going for
Would definitely recommend if you're in the area
