Food was not authentic Thai but good enough. Asking for hot sauce gets you tiny portion in a to go plastic instead a proper assortment of spice like other places. However, the thing that irked us the most was the server’s desire to kick us out even though the place was not busy and many hours left to closing time. Bill was brought before even one from the four of us has finished eating. Clean up of the non finished shared dishes started before some us are done. Tell your servers to please give people time to enjoy their food or convert it to a fast food place and then we know.

Food was good, not amazing but just good. Which is fine, I only had one dish which was the drunken noodles and it was yummy, I probably should’ve gotten it spicy. The Thai milk teas was disappointing tho, the first Thai tea I had was at PHO NOM NOM, and it was sooo bomb! But this place served a small $5 glass that tasted that was half sugar, half ice. The restaurant was pretty and the staff were nice. Probably won’t be back any time soon tho

The food is incredible! The flavors are unique and extra good! I say unique bc we have tried over 20 Thai restaurants in the area and the flavors were different and amazing! We got the Massaman Curry A+, the Ka Prao A-, and we tried the Southern Comfort A++! So the first two are our basics we try at every Thai restaurant. They were very good, BUT the Southern Comfort was almost just like Ka Prao but multiplied by 10!!! It was AMAZING…lots of lemongrass made the whole dish pop!!!

It’s kind of clubby/circusy inside, but we got ours to go.

I gave this place two chances but it disappointed me both times. Some appetizers are good but the noodles ( Pad Thai ) and the rice are always dry and flavorless. Drinks way too expensive, considering it's just sugar.
There are many other places that offer better Thai food. I guess the only thing that attire people in this place is the Instagrammer location .

The food was excellent, as were the mixed drinks, and the service. The only reason I gave a 4 star review is because THEY CHARGED A 20% SERVICE FEE FOR SITTING OUTSIDE. We would have sat inside if we'd been told, it was a significant addition to our bill. No one mentioned it when we were asked if we wanted to sit inside or out; when we asked the manager about the fee, he said it was mentioned in the menu. Of course, we never saw that note, and anyhow by the time you have a menu you're generally already seated somewhere in the restaurant. So, a very disappointing ending to an otherwise lovely meal.

We enjoyed our anniversary there and we're blown away by the wonderful flavors. An outstanding quality of a Thai food. Much better than our Hometown will definitely come back again.

This restaurant has it all—delicious food, outstanding service, and a fantastic atmosphere for dining. Sadly, I’m heading back to Michigan, where I’ve yet to find a Thai restaurant that compares to this one.

Came in for Dinner with my Son, and Husband. Everything was Absolutely Delicious. I couldn’t stop eating. I even got some to go. We had the Dumplings, Wontons, Fried Rice, and the Clay pot noodles (which I never had before, but I’m now obsessed with). I got a Lychee Martini it was tiny , but it was potent. The food was very comfort food, and I liked that it was family style. You can order multiple plates, and share as a family. Would definitely recommend, and I know I will be back. Service was very attentive.

Nice looking restaurant. In terms of Thai food, it's akin to what Panda Express is to Chinese, except in sit down from.

Server took orders and had a few noted to be extra spicy. Dishes came out with no spice. Instead of offering to fire up again, they follow up with some red chili flakes in a little to-go container after repeatedly trying to get the waitress's attention After taking the orders and getting the chili flakes, we never saw the server again until it was time for the check. No water, no drink refills... Nothing. She could be seen off to the side on her cell throughout...

I guess that's what can be expected when they auto charge the 20% gratuity. Won't be back unless I need to duck in for the restroom. Subpar food, poor service.... Nothing redeeming.
