I hate to leave a bad review. The yellow curry had good flavor but it had all these unnecessary vegetables. Some of which I didn’t even know what they were. These vegetable should have been listed in the description on the menu. I wish it were a true curry with potatoes, carrots, onions, and chicken (or choice of protein).

I’m genuinely disappointed. This place has a great atmosphere and the food is pretty good (for Denver). However on this past visit to pick up two guys we’re treated and assisted before I was even greeted. This is the day after international women’s day. And considering there were two female front of house working I didn’t think I had to stand up for myself to get attention, but this time I did. Wouldn’t want to label this company as sexist but man it sure felt that way!

I’ve eaten here many times and the staff is amazing. The food isn’t bad it’s just that I like things really spicy and every time that I ask for Thai hot it comes out mild at best. The first time that I had their Singapore noodles they were so full of curry flavor and spiciness. Every time since then they have been so bland, even after I request extra curry and Thai hot. I’m not sure what happened but hopefully it’ll shift back to the way it was when I first went there.

I use to love it this place it has gone down hill! Ordered a noodle combination No where on the description said it came with shredded lettuce. Ordered takeout when I got home opened the food container, filled with shredded lettuce… mind you I paid 25 bucks for it. Idk what I got meat was rubbery. It was just disgusting

If you’re looking for pad Thai, look elsewhere. By far the worst pad Thai I’ve ever had. Sauce is disgusting, way too many scrambled eggs in it, no garnishment, shrimp was clearly the cheapest quality you could find.Seriously, avoid this place, idk how they have any good reviews

I was really hoping to like this place and was excited with gluten free options. I called to place an order for pick up, and asked if it was possible to have pad se ew made gluten free. The woman on the phone said yes. When I got home, my pad se ew was just plain noodles with no seasoning or sauce. I wish they would have told me the dish would come with no sauce, I would have ordered something else.I called back to explain what I ordered and what I received, and the woman on the phone told me that there is sauce on my noodles and that the gluten free one is just not as “strong.” I was told I could bring my dish back to them (which I feel like is not appropriate food safety practices) and then purchase something else.I’m really disappointed with the food and service, it seemed like nobody cared to resolve the issue. $15 for plain noodles and chicken is absurd. :( I feel like this could have been handled much differently.

Stopped in for a quick lunch and sat at the bar. Very fast attentive service. The Penang curry was perfect. Windows on two walls made it bright and refreshing. Haven’t been here for a while but will be back. Love!

This place isn't bad at all! I give it 3 stars because for Denver standards its really good. If your from a diverse city then id give it a solid B-. I dont mean this to be rude or pretentious, but from an authentic Thai standard thats simply the grade. Their Tom Kha is called Chicken Coconut Soup which should totally explain the rating. I am happy with what I payed for and the job was done right, but theres DEFINITELY better Thai out there. Will i order here again? Maybe, but I want to try other places. For now I live super close to here so it may be a convenient order for me, but if your trying to find the best i would look elsewhere. Also the Medium spicy should be spicier in my opinion? I want to say again. Im happy with what I bought, I would buy again and I don't think the food is bad… it just could be A LOT better.Vegetarian options: Tom Kha and Yellow curry were both vegan/vegetarian according to the server/hostessDietary restrictions: They leave the fish oil out of their tom kha and yellow curry which is nice since i don't eat animal products, but it could be a deal breaker for others.Parking: Parking used to be free and plentiful, but they changed it recently. If you want to eat there id call and ask if they still have a parking lit.

Ordered outback curry with rice- looks nothing like pictures online. Honestly would call this a soup more than curry

Avery Grant

Great service but their drunken noodles are consistently overcooked every time I order them. Sad day.
