Wonderful meal! My favorite is the Yellow Curry. We tried a few firsts for us, Spicy Eggplant with ground pork, very good. Khao Soi Noodle soup, they hit that out of the park.
Pictured is the Khao Soi.

It’s okay. Green curry is very watery. Pad See Ew is a bit naked without much sauce and lacking flavor. They could be a bit more heavy handed with spices, but this might be on purpose or for their clientele.

We decided to have dinner here and loved it! We had the Pad Kee Mao, Mango Curry (a special for the day) and Mango Sticky Rice. Everything was very tasty and the portions were plenty. It’s been a while since I’ve had such good Pad Kee Mao, and the Mango Curry and Mango Sticky Rice were on point. The service was great and the atmosphere was laid back. We enjoyed the food and the service very much, we will be back!
