Pad thai had better flavor than the previous owners. Portions are kinda light for a thai place.

We recently ordered takeout from Penn’s Thai Cafe under its new ownership, and WOW, what a treat!
We’ve been fans of the chef owner’s cooking for a long time, so when they opened their own restaurant, we couldn’t wait to try it. You can truly taste the passion and authenticity in every dish.
The pad prick nor mai made with fresh bamboo, was a standout and something rarely found at this level outside of Thailand. We also had the kra pow moo grob (crispy pork basil stir fry) which was perfectly balanced - crispy, savory, and packed with flavor. Their pad Thai was excellent as well, with a rich depth of flavor and tanginess that sets it apart from the usual.
For appetizers, the minced pork bun with egg and the crab rangoon were a delightful surprise. They were comforting, flavorful, and a great way to start the meal. We didn’t get a chance to try their newest dessert, i-Tim Kati (coconut ice cream), but it is definitely on our list for next time!
Highly recommend!

Bad food. $16 total, $1 of overcooked chicken, $1 of noodles, so that leaves $14 dollars for the QUART of sauce, which was thin like a soup. Didn't taste good either.

I would absolutely recommend Penn’s Thai If you’re looking for delicious authentic Thai food this place is a must-try. The food tastes authentic and you can tell it’s made with care every single dish. I ordered so many things and the crispy pork basil stir-fry was my most favorite it’s very crunchy and amazing flavor, I ordered it extra hot and they didn’t disappoint! I’m Thai I love it spicy! The portions were huge and the prices were very reasonable, great value for the quality and amount of food. And I’d recommend you try the lemon iced tea, very flavorful and not too sweet.
Overall, everything was super delicious!

This was my first time visiting the restaurant, and the food was extremely tasty. The prices are very reasonable, and the service was super friendly and welcoming. The portions were justified for the price, and I highly recommend the basil fried rice and pad Thai. I came here with my friends, and we had an overall positive experience and will come back in the future!

I’ve been to this spot twice and I already know I’ll be back again. The owner and the cook are Thai, and you can really taste the authenticity in every bite 🇹🇭✨
I ordered the Crispy Pork Basil – it’s one of the most iconic Thai street food dishes, and this version totally hits the spot. Highly recommend if you haven’t tried it! 🐷🌶️
The place has a chill and simple vibe, with clean decor that feels nice and relaxed. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the mood for real Thai comfort food. 🙌

I had the most amazing Yen Ta Fo at this Thai restaurant it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were authentic and brought me right back to Thailand. The broth was rich and perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of tang and spice. Every bite tasted just like the street food back home. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Thai flavors!
