Take out but without knifes and napkins. How to eat?

Genuinely amazed by how poorly they treat their customers. At this point, it felt like the servers just needed a place to dump all their problems and unfortunately, it was the diner. I tried to be polite throughout the meal, but I figured I should leave a warning for others.

Food is amazing but the service is horrible. It says closes at 10pm but they keep rushing you since 9:15pm and they literally started sweeping at 9:45 while we were still eating.

We had a really weird experience here a few Sundays ago, when we stopped in for a late lunch for the first time at this Thai restaurant. First, we were not seated or acknowledged for a while, which was odd because there were 2 open tables. Next, we had to ask for menus and water, which was also a bit odd. The food took a while to come out and when it finally arrived, the green curry was really just semi-raw vegetables with very little curry sauce. The Pad Thai was also really fishy tasting and very oily, which was not like Pad Thai we've had at other places in New England or Europe. Lastly, the atmosphere is pretty cramped and hot, so that's another consideration to think about before dining here.

Had an amazing lunch here and we ordered chicken drunken noodles, veg drunken noodles with tofu, pad thai, spring rolls, and mango sticky rice — everything was flavorful, fresh, and generously portioned. The noodles were perfectly cooked, the veggies crisp, and the mango sticky rice was a sweet finish. Always consistent and satisfying. Highly recommend!

Food is good. I got the taste of little extra sugar from almost all items except Chicken Satay. But otherwise all good. We had Chicken Satay, Veg crispy spring rolls, udon noodles and Tom Yun noodles.
I had a salmon choo chee and it tasted delicious.
4 stars because, fried salmon is not really flavorful and though it is tasty, but it doesn’t really go along with dish. And after certain point, you don’t want to eat it also since throat just becomes too greasy.

LOVE ROD D! Their Indonesian fried rice is my favorite!

My friend was sick and she requested the pineapple fried rice. When i ordered the driver got the address wrong, they gave me credit for the order right away. Great customer service and even better food :)

They denied us a table at 9.18pm. apparently takeout only after 9.15pm even though people were eating till 10pm and we promised to be very quick. Staff was curt and rude multiple times. Food is good but make sure you come early.

Food was very flavorful but found not one but TWO metal slivers in my rice... That is a huge hazard.

Solid Thai spot in Brookline.

Saw this place listed in a few “Top 10 Thai in Boston” roundups, so I swung by for a quick fix. Brookline’s not exactly overflowing with Thai options (outside of the two modern spots in Harvard Square), so expectations were modest.

Starters were fine. Scallion pancake was on the blander side but nailed the crispiness. Fried chive dumplings were better—crisped edges, chewy interior, savory filling. Hard to mess that one up, and they didn’t.

My favorite dish was Indonesian fried rice with chicken. Juicy, extra-crispy chicken pieces piled on top of a sweet-savory fried rice. Humble, but really satisfying. Then came the Bangkok duck. Definitely pre-frozen, but the portion size kind of made up for it. Bigger than what I usually get from some of my go-tos in Back Bay. Meat was on the dry side, but the sweet BBQ-style sauce at the bottom helped it along. If you’re craving duck and want value, it’s not a bad pick.

For no-frills, satisfying Thai-American classics, I recommend giving them a try.
