They seem to have been going down the last couple of times we had them.
They used to be one of our favorite restaurant.

November 2025 Panang Chicken. Dry. Lacked spice to make it a hot curry. Extremely short of broth. Was more like a stir fry. Will not be buying my Panang from this location again. They once had a cook that knew how to make Panang. This is a favorite dish at our home. Worst I have ever tasted.

Delicious kung pao chicken, and that lunch special is unbeatable. The lunch special I got was the Kung Pao chicken and steamed rice came with an egg roll which is an appetizer of your choice, and tempura vegetables and soup all that for $10 I couldn't believe it. I was absolutely delighted and can't wait to go back again. The people were very professional and courteous, kind and informative of the menu and options.

Very good food and plenty to fill your belly! Cost for 2 was $23. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Absolutely nothing bad from what I experienced for lunch today 😁

I'm a truck driver staying at a hotel. I NEVER go out to eat. However, i wanted to treat myself. I ordered PAD THAI, EGG ROLLS, CRAB RANGOON, AND SUSHI. I planned on having plenty of leftovers as I'll be here a few days.
I took a bite of the BEEF PAD THAI (WITH EXTRA VEGGIES). IT'S DISGUSTING! Doesn't even taste anything like pad thai... A TON of some RED CHILI OIL, no taste at all of green onions or the TAMARIND paste that is used to make the sauce. There was NO option on the app to choose MILD. Usually, PAD THAI has that option and/or theyll put the red pepper flakes on the side. This was DRENCHED IN OIL. MY HOMEMADE pad thai is better than this garbage. No extra veggies either. Noodles over cooked.
My CRAB RANGOONS and EGG ROLLS were cold. No flavor. SUSHI IS SUBPAR.
This place has mostly rave reviews, and pics look great! However, not my experience at all. I've got a whole order of PAD thai I can't eat. Through away one egg roll. I'm pissed.
NOTE***I ORDERED ON UBER EATS. PAID EXTRA $2 FOR RUSH. MY DRIVER CAME STRAIGHT HERE AND MY ODERE WAS READY UNUSUALLY FAST. NOT AN UBER EATS ISSUE.
