Best multi course meal ever. Best kept secret in Michiana
I love this place. Hope they open back up soon.
Not very authentic Thai or Loation food for the very limited dishes. Most dishes are Chinese.
Love love live this place. If you haven't been here you're missing out!
Oddest but very best experience. Six courses, no options and you pay what you think is fair. Ask for seconds and they bring them, all leftovers are yours to take and all with wonderful heartwarming service. Vegetarian options for most courses.
Great food. Fun experience
One of the most unique restaurant experience in St. Joseph County. Only open on Fridays but the staff is so warm and welcoming and the food is always different. BYOB
Very quaint, beautiful decor,I was quit surprised when it was time to pay... you pay what you feel the meal was worth.. that threw me off, but i'm in the food and hospitality field, so of course, they were satisfied, food was interesting, I'll give another try.
Such a unique place!! Only open on Fridays this dainty restaurant is run mainly by 3 women. Exquisite decor!! Whoever did the interior decor, take a bow!! This place is impeccably clean. A mirror wall gives the appearance of a large open space. Sofas and curio cabinets give the place a homey feel. The ladies are wonderful hostesses, mingling with customers. Even more unique is that this place does not have a menu. If you are the kind that has food allergies, or specific levels of spice etc, you must mention to them beforehand. If you don't say anything, the food courses will just keep coming. Huge sized appetizer followed by hot spicy fish soup, fried rice, noodles, white rice and curry and dessert. The food is unabashedly authentic and flavorful. And finally, the ultimate surprise... They leave the final payment amount for you to decide. What a pleasant and unique experience!! Highly recommend!!
Stumbled across this place on accident and what a gem! It's a unique set up so before you go, it's helpful for you to know a few things.

Not the best atmosphere but good food and a pay what you want fee structure
Best place ever. Run by the two sweetest ladies you'd ever meet.
Today was my first time going & i LOVED it. The food was soooo good & the place is so cute, the chef was the sweetest lady ever!
Although the experience is not perfection itself, there are some very good points that merit five stars. The food is prepared by a couple older Thai ladies, who use the seasonings and flavor combinations of their homeland. The proprietor has been in the US for many decades, immigrating when she was young. Since it is prepared with fresh, local vegetables of the Midwest, the flavors are of course a little different than they would be if prepared with vegetables grown locally in Thailand. That said, the dishes of rice noodles with peanut sauce, sweet roast chicken, spicy ginger soup, coconut laced salad and fresh fruit for dessert are as authentic as one could ask for. Of course fluffy white rice was on hand to serve as a base, along with spring rolls and a few unnamed appetizer finger foods.
