My dish was filled with excess oil! The chicken satay could have been cooked/grilled a little longer to avoid the rubbery taste.

The food is delicious, the staff are polite, and the atmosphere has a very familial, homely feel that just keeps bringing me back. I've brought friends and colleagues here and it's always a hit and becomes a new favorite dining spot of theirs in the area! Highly recommend!

This place seemed highly underrated but the food was good. The only thing was that there was only one server so the service was a tad bit slow but still friendly. I would recommend!Vegetarian options: There are plenty of tofu options.Parking: It is right near the parking garage.

Friendly enough. But the food fail tremendously. If I had time I would return all. Spring rolls over cooked externally (burnt) and internal (mushy); Pad Thai noodles mushy and lackluster taste. Two bites- decided it wasn't worth the calories.

Pad Thai was not great. It was good, and it hit the spot, but the noodles were incredibly soggy and it felt like they were throwing in random ingredients to overcompensate. The beef was overcooked and tough, and the cocktails we ordered were not made well - very hard, like there's a difference between a "strong" drink and a glass with nothing but tequila with a small dash of the other ingredients.Service got 4 stars because the waitress gave us attitude for asking to sit outside, which was odd. When another table came to sit outside as well, they asked to sit in the second gazebo and she told them "no, because I'm the only waitress here" - on one hand, that's understandable in most situations. On the other hand, it was no more than 20ft from the door which is immediately next to the kitchen, and there was a total of 3 tables dining in at the time, including us. Not like the waitress would have had to walk across the parking lot to get to them? So not sure why she made such a big deal out of it.

Tara thai is my favorite. The food we order is always delicious, Pad Pok with Beef, pad Thai with Shrimp, and spring rolls are always yummy. Their won ton soup is another favorite. Clean place and great customer service.

Food was just OK. Good eggplant, mediocre pad Thai. Where were the peanuts? We like spicy, and none of the dishes rose to the 3 pepper indication. Shrimp dish was particularly bland. But the curious thing was that we had to practically insist on eating outside. The one server repeatedly said she wanted us to eat inside, even though there was just one occupied table inside and only one occupied table outside. She intimated that she didn't want to walk the short distance from the kitchen to outside. We ultimately prevailed.
Very nice staff! Food was delicious as well! Their bathroom is nice and clean too! I love their pad Thai. Honestly, I'd prefer to come here than the one in Rockville lol...

I ordered the vegetarian pad thai for delivery, which is a specific menu item. The restaurant instead sent me a shrimp pad thai. There is no way to have mistaken the shrimp for the fried tofu that comes in the vegetarian pad thai. Sending shellfish to customers who don't order it is potentially deadly. The restaurant nevertheless refused to refund my money or send me a corrected order. I would advise others to beware.

Food was great! Menu stated that for a part of 5 or more they add 18% gratuity. I took my family of 7 so I was not surprised to see it added but it was 20% instead of 18%.

On Saturday evening, I met up with John over cocktails. He enjoyed a Mojito, which consisted of rum, lime juice, lime mix, muddled mint, and topped with a splash of soda. I enjoyed my Tahitian Mai Tai, which consisted of a blend of Bacardi White and Gold rums, mai tai mix, orange juice, and a splash of lime mix. Both drinks were light, sweet, and refreshing.
