Food is okay, parking is nonexistent, prices are high. Not sure why anyone would want to visit. Absolutely nothing to write home about.

Nice atmosphere. Food was basic and nothing special. Not the flavorful Thai experience I crave.

A great little spot with a fantastic ambiance and huge menu of unique and interesting dishes not served at most Thai restaurants. The Roti appetizer was simple but delicious with pan fried puff pastry triangles and a peanut sauce side. The Spicy Basil Fried Rice was excellent with a big scoop of tasty fried rice sprinkled througout with bits of red pepper, tender green beans, basil, and white chicken. Crispy basil was also sprinkled around the top of the plate. Order it medium-hot, and ask for a side of red chile sauce to adjust the heat upward and add more flavor. My vegetarian friend had a great looking salad with fried tofu, a feta-like cheese, sundried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and I think walnuts.

The setting and atmosphere is kinda neat because it feels like Thai royalty. The service was good. The food itself is mediocre and the taste was alright but not great. With the trifecta of quality, quality, and price it didn’t work. The quality and quantity weren’t good enough to justify the price.

Unfortunately, this place didn’t live up to expectations and I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for a good dining experience. Despite the restaurant not being very busy, the server was inattentive and seemed disengaged throughout the meal.

We ordered the potstickers, which were clearly not freshly made—they had the texture and taste of something reheated in an oven rather than cooked to order. The biggest disappointment, however, was the way the curry was served. Serving curry on a flat plate instead of a bowl made it messy and difficult to enjoy. On top of that, the portion size was extremely small for the price being charged, which made it feel like poor value.

To be fair, the Panang curry itself was quite flavorful, and that’s the one thing they got right. But the poor presentation and small quantity of rice made it impossible to fully enjoy the dish.

Overall, unless you’re really hungry and just happen to be in the area looking for Thai food, I’d suggest trying a different place. There’s potential here, but the execution and service fall far short of what makes a satisfying dining experience.

We ordered soups, papaya salad, veg rolls and Thai veg curry and rice… each one a delight and quite filling too…

A small place with too many tables, so it felt very cramped. Food was okay and service was fast.

We both love Thai food and have traveled there. One dish was very good the other so so. I wish we had tried the other Thai restaurant in town. Other dishes might be great but it could have been better. Also no alcohol is available.

Delicious. Healthy. You can ask them to use low oil or no oil.

Food, service and ambiance are good. Comfort is good too unless you have a baby and you need to change them. There is no changing table in the restrooms. Baby would have to be changed on the floor of the bathroom and dad or mom will have to kneel on the bathroom floor to get the job done.
