“I've dinner in and ordered the Seafood Red Curry w Rice was a nice in house portion I even had to ask for containers that got full! Today we decided to order carry out, low and be hold never again I thought it would have changed from a year ago same thing happened. My husband's portion had no shrimp, mine had 2 and the containers weren't even full. For $25 dishes I'm disappointed in the carryout presentation and portion. Not worth the carryout price”
