Pretty decent bahn mi, but was charged more than the listed price, and then the kiosk added in an automatic tip! $20 for a bahn mi is ridiculous. Dont recommend
Everyone was so friendly and kind and the food is amazing! 😻 You won’t be sorry!
Food was delicious! We had pad Thai and it was so good. We didn’t know they closed so early but the owner was so kind and cooked for us anyway.
Just amazing Thai food! Would have been an easy five stars if it wasn't for the automatically added 10% gratuity before asking for another 15-22% tip (at a food truck with no sitting area and ordering on a display).
Burnt smell in rice and tofu. Tofu even looked overdone. Dissapointed ☹️
Absolutely excellent - we had a large party of 16 and they served us quickly. Food was fabulous. We did Medium spice and it was perfect. Little heat, not overwhelming.
Maybe the best Thai I’ve ever had. The vegan larb was so incredible; get it!! Juicy and spicy and herby. Sweet service too.
The Ganesha Pad Thai was delish! The Thai Iced Tea wasn’t great - made with coconut milk :( Service was fantastic though!
Very good Thai. The massaman curry was delicious and the basil fried rice was excellent. Big line when we went, but they were very fast. Will go back for sure.
Been coming here for years until today. The main dude running the food cussed out my wife and my 2 year old daughter cause he was having a bad day. Everyone has bad days. I get it. The polite younger dude told us he’s having some maintenance issues right as we were paying for our food. So we were about to leave until the extremely angry and grumpy owner or guy behind the grill came out and just lost it. There’s a base level of customer service skills you need to have to work at a food shack. If you are capable of calmly telling a customer “we’re having some technical difficulty, can you hang out here for 10?” you’re in the wrong line of work brother. To blow up and bad mouth my wife and daughter is wild. REALLY good food here I’ve been going for 7 years. Someone gotta retrain this guy or find a new chef.

The food was really good. Ordered pad thai and kapow and both had decent portions and pretty good taste!
Only thing is it has 10% auto added tips at checkout.

Best pad thai ever
Ate here for the first time two years ago and it was literally my first time ever having pad Thai and it changed me. We ate the food at sunset beach across the street and it was a core memory. Coming back two years later made me nervous it wouldn’t live up to the hype we had set but alas, it was even better than we remembered. Absolutely worth getting, but let Thai food at sunset beach be your new core memory!
Pad Thai and Pad Se Ew were delicious! Grateful for gluten free options.
