Thai food at a sports bar? Yes, in deedy. The best Thai food with 4 levels of hear. Chef's hot makes the food not as enjoyable. Mexican hot is my sweet spot, but my wife prefers medium heat. They only serve beer and wine, but that is all you will want eating the Thai food. The place has that great sports bar vibe with several tvs for the various games available that day.

Johan Johan Johan! Best bartender/server I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. This man is an absolute machine and beyond respectful. Always a pleasure to sit with him, my wife and I will actually walk out if he is not working. Nothing to do with the rest of the staff hes just that awesome to be around!

Been there multiple times and always order off the Thai menu. The food I've been served has been exceptional each time. It's a bit pricey, but I personally would rather pay a little more and get a top shelf meal. This restaurant is so much better than any restaurant I've eaten at, probably since COVID.

After donating platelets at ONEBLOOD on Sunday, I walked a few doors down to a nice bar that I had never been to before. The place had all the 1:00 games on around the bar. The bartender Johan was discussing the fate of a draft pick that a fan's NFL team had on IR. I stayed for the first half of Miami vs Carolina. I had the Club House sandwich with frys. I highly recommend. They have an eclectic menu. 1-6-24 Johan behind the bar once again. I love this place I tried a couple of Tai food options. I loved the shrimp lemongrass soup/wirh mushrooms. I tried the boneless terriaki chicken nuggets. Didn't care for them. Dry and too much breading. I also tried the onion rings they were good

I came to eat lunch here a few weeks ago with a friend of mine.I really enjoyed my experience. It was a very friendly environment. The set up of the restaurant looked nice. There was a big selection between American food and Thai food.We chose Crab Rangoon for an appetizer which was really good. For my lunch, I chose the volcano. It was chicken and rice with a spicy sauce. Not too spicy, though. I enjoyed my meal. My friend chose the Pad Thai dish. She said she enjoyed her lunch, as well.My friend suggested we go to this restaurant because she has frequently gone for lunch here throughout the years. She and her late husband were regulars.This was my first time trying it. I can see why she loves it so much.It was a great experience and I will be coming back to support this small independent business.Vegetarian options: They have tofu dishes and several vegetarian options.Dietary restrictions: They will modify dishes to help with any dietary restrictions.Parking: No difficulty in parking. There's plenty of spaces near the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: It is a friendly, family environment. Kids are welcome and there's plenty for them to eat.Wheelchair accessibility: There is handicap parking and it seems very wheelchair accessible.

Pretty good spot with a choice of menu...either Thai or American. I had the Asian dumplings...yummy and my husband had chopped sirloin steak which he gobbled up and said it was delicious.

Other than my wife's pad thai being a bit cooler than my wife expected, all was great. We had a curry dish and two vegan dishes to finish our our 4 meals.
