I was hopeful but the food wasn’t flavorful. Shrimp in spring roll smelt fishy. I wish the old lady best of luck after this restaurant inevitably fails. I also concur that prices were raised from menu.

This place is way over priced, I eat at Thai food places all across the country and this place is double the price for a small fraction of the portion, the portion size was the smallest I’ve ever seen from any Thai food places out of 100s I’ve eaten at the curry was very salty. I seen the appetizer prices and I was shocked they’re triple everyone else so I skipped them. $16.50 for some rice and vegetables? I will never come back here. The only good thing I can say about this place is the service was good. Even with inflation these prices are astronomical. I don’t recommend this place.

By far the worst microwave food we've ever eaten. You could hear the microwave door opening and closing. The appetizer was still cold in the center. Pho soup was not pho and the meat had an ammonia taste, no basil, wrong noodles, medium bowl $18.99. Shrimp Jungle Curry was not curry, came with 4 small shrimp, overcooked, clear broth, small bowl for $24. Nothing fresh. We could smell the carpet.

Highly recommend! We are visiting Effingham Illinois for the next two weeks and so happy we found this amazing spot with authentic Thai food. We were greeted at the door by a friendly woman who seated us immediately. After bottles of water were brought to our table, we soon-after ordered the spring rolls with tofu, as well as the Lad Na (vegetarian brown sauce with flat noodles and vegetables), and the pad tai; both with tofu. I didn’t get pictures this time but will when we return! The spring rolls were freshly made to order, as well as the peanut sauce. Our entrees were fantastic. Every component, the noodles, vegetables, sauces, tofu; all fresh and flavorful. Next time I think we’ll try them spicy ? very clean restaurant. Thank you for great service and conversation!

When we come here it is on our way south from Kankakee. I speak Thai and lived in Thailand for several years so it always enjoyable to stop in, say hi, and get some seriously authentic home style Thai food. The owner is quick to accommodate my requests for things not necessarily on the menu. I love this place

I arrived at 1:45 PM on a Thursday. The neon open sign is lit and the hours indicate it should be open, but the door is locked. If you're going to close early, at least turn the sign off.

NO. NO. NO. NO. NOThe owner was so sick and phlegmy I was getting ill just listening to her talk. Nose running and almost choking on herself. Think of the spa alien from Rick and Morty.The place smells and is dirty. It's empty for a reason. I was going to give them a chance and ordered a red curry with shrimp. I could hear hacking cough and snorting snot from the kitchen. The dish came out in less than 5 minutes. I heard nothing being cooked. Only a microwave door and beeps a couple times. I was about to walk out but the food came out so fast. I'm not even taking the chance on it. No way in hell.The worst part is I asked her if she was sick and she LIED saying she'd just eaten some spicy noodles. There's no hint of food being cooked in that restaurant any time recently.

Lovely little place. We had dinner and there were only 2 other people dining in. The owner mentioned we were the first customers of the day! The food tasted like a home cooked meal. The owner was happy to explain dishes to us and offer suggestions. Everything was cooked to order and came to the table as it was ready. Truly felt like a home.

There were ups and downs. The woman running the place was incredibly kind. She made our food and was also our server. We were the only ones inside. The prices on the menu seemed reasonable. I will say, I got a smaller portion size than I am used to with Thai restaurants but I looked past it. The food was good. As it was being cooked, I heard a microwave beeping for the majority of the time she was back there. I will say, many restaurants use microwaves here and there, but it seemed to be getting a lot of use. However I did hear something cooking and sizzling so I know something was cooked fresh, and everything was hot and tasted good. Then we got the bill. Kind of. There was no actual bill and we forgot to get the receipt. But instead of the $30 or so we had estimated for an order of beef fried rice, an order of pad thai, two egg rolls and two thai iced teas, we received a $61.95 bill. She made up the prices. They were not the same as on the menu, and it was not just a few dollars difference. You are also given a water bottle that seems complimentary, but is not. Even if you don’t drink the water, you are charged for it. The pricing isn’t honest, and it seems like she just charges what she feels like. We enjoyed our food quite a bit, but the pricing brought things down by a lot.
The lady was really sweet . Food was great. Food was amazing. Crab Ragoon was great.

I was the only one in the place at the time of pickup and had to have been one of the few orders of the night based on how delighted lady behind the counter was to see me. She thanked me several times for ordering from her. I could tell she cooked my order fresh!Cashew chicken and potstickers are excellent!It’s a little pricey for the amount of food I received. $25 total when listed at $11 and $5 online, unless prices have changed.

Authentic Thai food deliciously prepared. The owner was very helpful in making suggestions and selecting the spiciness of our meal. Had crab dumplings as appetizer and my husband and I shared the drunken noodles and ginger chicken on rice. All was perfectly seasoned with lots of fresh vegetables. Highly recommend!

I used to love this place. The prices are very high and we ran into a very disappointing meal here. They attempted to take care of the issue but not to my satisfaction. I don’t want to go to deeply into the issue but they could use more visits from pest control and a health inspector.
