What amazing food. We are vegetarians and they were conscious of our needs. The spring rolls are to die for. The curry and noodles was also really good. They definitely have some secret sauce that I will be coming back for. I am told that they run about 40 rolls in a day so you can imagine their popularity. Highly highly recommend. Dessert was really good as well

Che was our waiter I wish somebody had noted that this place can make anything vegan. The food is very good not too much oil full of flavor and very fresh.
The customer service is exceptional and what a friendly crew. I would love to come here more if I was closer.
I must try and they had also 1 awards from the Santa Cruz Sentinel for best Thai Resturant !!!

The menu clearly states that they can make things vegan so that's great right off the bat!
I had a tofu and vegetable noodle soup and it was super good. They seem to have a lot of the standard options that other Thai places have but it was cool to see that their menu listed that you can get a Thai tea with coconut milk - usually I have to ask to see if they'll do that.
Overall decent, flavorful Thai food, cozy restaurant, and friendly staff!
