We’ve always loved this place. It’s our special occasion place as it’s a bit more expensive than everyday fair. Love the Tom Kha soup, creamy coconut milk with galangal. It’s a must. Pad Thai is also the best in the area. We used to go to a place in Evanston that had wonderful Pad Thai but it closed. This is a close second. Panang Curry is also quite good.

Torn between 4 & 5 stars
All 4 of us enjoyed our meals, and our server was very attentive (almost a little too much, but it was 4PM on a Saturday, so they weren't crowded).
Only reason for 4 stars is the price - average price per person, no drinks, was over $20. Different class of establishment, but Asian take-out is closer to $8-$10 per person.
