This place was so delicious! First of all, I love how quaint it is. It was such a cute place. We ordered the pads see ew and woon sen. Both were so delicious and fresh! We also ordered some fresh Thai rolls. You could tell that everything was made to order and it was super crispy and fresh! The waitress was super sweet and we just really felt cozy and well fed. The Thai tea was top-notch. Highly recommend a visit here if you vacation down! It’s a must!

Almost ashamed of how often I eat here. If you like Thai food, or noodles for that matter, you must come here at least once. Go see Josh at the bar outside. He’s always working up fresh cocktails.
