My favorite Thai restaurant every time I go to PAX for work. Better than most Thai restaurants in Orange County. The owner is a one man army. Awesome food and awesome service.

I'm sure the food's better if you want it like it's supposed to be eaten - spicy hot. And I really loved that the gentleman made the food mild for us - which most Thai restaurants can't or won't do. But my coconut curry with beef was devoid of any vegetable but peas(!), and tasted no better than my attempt to make Thai food at home. Rice and curry were served separate, which they should have been, but was out of rice beforebeingout of curry. Mother really enjoyed her Sawatdee pad shrimp, which, like my food was very conscientiously made not spicy at all as she asked. The flavor was nicely garlicky and shallot-ful and was in a brown sauce. I don't like shrimp much, however, so I didn't taste the whole to see how I liked it. Mango and sticky rice was unavailable due to mangoes being out of season - which is generally a good sign of authenticity. Thai iced tea was in a can and didn't taste too much better than a protein shake, albeit a Thai iced tea flavored one. Fresh spring rolls were good, but served with Mae Ploy - which is good, but quite spicy. Really would have preferred a nice peanut sauce. Menu prices are quite a bit higher than on Zmenu - so with 15% tip, Bill was around $45! On top of this, order at the counter - although food is brought to you at the table. Oh - and no glass of water.

Best Thai food in St Mary's! The spice level is real, def be wary of 5+ unless you like heat!

I’ve enjoyed coming to the restaurant for a few years. My absolute favorite is the Tom yum soup spicy level 3 or 4. I’ve had TomYum soup at other restaurants and they don’t compare to this one.

Atmosphere:small strip mall restaurant; bar and kitchen fill the middle of room with most dine-in seating in the rear. Nicely decorated.Service:when eating in or taking out, servers are always friendly and helpful.I'm taking the stars off here, since the food is good and it's more of a service/management problem. The problems are order accuracy and ingredient availability. In two recent visits, I have ordered pad king. The menu describes this item as how pad **prik** king is almost always prepared: green beans (sometimes red bell peppers), protein, spicy red sauce; this is the desired preparation and what I would expect to receive if the menu says it. Twice, this has been prepared as pad king, with no green beans and a mixture of vegetables (celery, mushrooms, scallions, lemongrass, peppers) that isn't in the menu description. Additionally, upon ordering this on a visit a few years back, we were told they did not have green beans available (which I prefer being told instead of getting the dish incorrect, but why don't you have green beans when they are on the menu?). This is a pretty common dish I get at most thai places; I am too often (50%?) disappointed at how it is prepared.Food:All that said, the food you do get is pretty good. Veggies cooked to just crunchy, right level of spice, good balance of veg and protein. On one recent visit we had what felt like too much soupy curry and not enough rice in the two to-go containers (each was like 75% full), but that's not a big deal; the food was still good.Overall: wish the pad king was prepared how the menu says. Otherwise, enjoy!

I had to come on here and write a review. This isn’t just the best Thai around. This is the best restaurant in southern Maryland. I’ve been coming here multiple times a week and I’ve never been disappointed. Everything is good. Today I got the soup and it was perfect for a cold winter day. The chicken is fantastic! The crispy pork is to die for. I love this place. The owner and his wife are the nicest people in the world and make you feel so welcome. A really hard working couple and an amazing atmosphere. I’ll continue to be a regular!

If you wanna sweat your holes off, ask for extra Thai spicy/no hangover and they’ll dish you they best curry in southern maryland

Stopped here after a college tour with family. The food was nicely spiced and very fresh. We enjoyed the unique selection of sodas and juices in the fridge, purchased some to go. The owner was very friendly, the food was very good, would go again. We have the spring rolls ( very fresh) chicken pad Thai, red curry shrimp and crispy pork.Parking: Plenty space for parking.

Maybe the quality has taken a slight dent, but otherwise still one of the heartiest and cheapest seafood places in the county. Food has some good authenticity and is very well known for its genuine spiciness. My advice is to start with a level 3 spice then work your way up or down when you go again.
