We went there for dinner on a Monday. It's in an old shopping plaza close to the airport with lots of parking. It's a clean table and chair setup with a Thai ambiance. Service was fast and attentive.

We ordered the Massaman and Red Curry. The Massaman curry consisted of mostly potato chunks, slices of carrot and onion, a few really thin slices of beef and no peanuts. It had little flavor. The Red curry was a little better.

The quality of food was not good and I can't recommend. No Repeat.

Went on Sat. 6/28/25😋Hailee, the young lady asked if I wanted reservations, and I was impressed with her telephone etiquette! The Thai dishes were delicious! Hubby had Country Curry w/jasmine rice, and I had Duck Curry w/sticky rice. Prices are great! The menu is extensive, so we'll be back to try other dishes. The restaurant is clean, and uncluttered. Nice mural painting on wall! Definitely returning.

My wife and I enjoyed our dinner here. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We both had stir fry plates, and both were very good. I would certainly return.

We came here for dinner as thai places typically have a lot of vegan options but that was not the case here. Unfortunately, all their curries have shrimp paste in them and I'm very allergic to shrimp. I ended up getting a tofu salad with medium spicy level and it was so beyond spicy that I couldn't even finish it. My husband got a curry with tofu and ended up with no tofu in the curry at all plus his had no spice at all...maybe they accidentally added his spice into mine? LOL. I ended up leaving still hungry and would not return.

This was the best Thai food I have had outside of Thailand. We had the pad Thai and red curry. Both were absolutely amazing. If you do not come to this restaurant while visiting Hilo, you are missing out!
