I am really sorry that I am gonna say. Honestly, the food was not really delicious. Lobster pancakes have a bad fishy smell. the cost of food was expensive. Vibes are fancy. Service was so nice. It was a weird experience. In the nice fancy restaurant, why is the food so bad? I recommend you guys are serving chilies with food. Because food has no favor. You guys need to get a credit card for the customer's convenience. You should test the foods by yourself. I found this restaurant with a good rate, but I don't know why your restaurant has good rates. Btw, diverce tea choices are nice. After candy was adorable. I assume you lost a good chef.

We were crazing Thai so decided to stop by this spot since it’s close to where we live. It was a week day and we got here before 8:30 since their Yelp page says they close at 9:00.We’re immediately greeted in a very rudely manner with a no we’re closed with the hand waiving under the chin gesture aka The Chin Flick. Now I know some people are ignorant to hand gestures or just how to treat a potential paying customer. But this gesture is the equivalent of throwing someone the middle finger!!We passed by this place all the time and it always looks empty so we wanted to give a local restaurant some business and good vibes, guess not!So as an Elite Yelper, I posted a review expressing my concerns in hopes that the Business Owner would recognize their shortcomings and apologize. I would have gladly taken down my review and given them business. But that wasn’t the case, the Business Owner continued with more insults saying that my option didn’t matter and that no one would care about my post!Look Business Owner, maybe you’re not from this country or just don’t know how to treat potential paying customers! So take heed, you need to enroll yourself in some Customer Service courses and educate yourself. A polite and friendly response goes long way, which we never got!!

If I could give this place 100 stars I would. This little hole in the wall is AMAZING!The food was so delicious. Everything was fresh and very flavorful. Very very clean. The service was beyond amazing. Steve and his wife provided the best service. Everything felt so personal, they took the time to make us feel at home. I will forever rave about this place.Kid-friendliness: Steve was so kind with the kids. He gave them toys to entertain them. He offered them a tasty dessert.

One word - AMAZING! This isn't your typical Thai restaurant; they use fresh ingredients in nearly all their dishes. We ordered the Kabocha (winter squash) Curry with chicken - a first for me - and it was bursting with flavor. The presentation also impressed us. Another standout was the Tom Kha, served in a hot pot and featuring fresh mushrooms, a change from canned ones.I chose the Mango Sticky Rice and Pandan Crème Brûlée for dessert. Their use of black sticky rice elevated the mango sticky rice, making it even more delightful, complemented by the sweet and ripe mangoes. The crème brûlée was wonderfully light and perfectly sweet. The presentation of both desserts was exceptional.Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine at a reasonable price. Plus, parking is convenient, with a small lot and ample street parking available.

Yelp said this was a local favorite; they were right! We were a little surprised when we walked in and didn't see anybody else except the host and server. They were both very friendly and gave some great recommendations of the menu. We started the meal with some sautéed green beans....mmm mm good! They were cooked to perfection and still had a great crunch. Our entrees were the Panang curry with shrimp and pork belly pad Thai. We are new fans of both! The curry could have been a bit heartier, I'm used to it having a thicker consistency. All of the flavors were amazing. The inside seating area is a little outdated, but the feel is cozy!

This place lives up to the raves of the other reviews. My waitress was wonderful. Best service I’ve had in quite a few years. It was quiet during lunch maybe due to the area. Yellow curry and small egg roll was delicious. Sweet waitress was helpful and attentive. This is an elegant and family friendly place!! I will definitely keep it as a place to come back to. I eat out a lot during lunch. This would be a place I could recommend to my friends. Also had hot ginger tea which was also delicious. all for under $20. Cash only today
