03/2026 Update: Used to come here regularly over the past 4 years.
The last 3 times came here, it was awful. The seasonings are off and do not mesh well together. Tried a different dish thinking it was just a bad batch. Pad Lawn (one of our favs) - The simple stir fried vegetables were soggy and shrunken, like they were frozen and the sauce out of a bottle. So sad. Please bring in a chef= We want to come back.
2021 Just moved to West St. Paul. This is our new go-to Thai!
Love the Pumpkin Salmon Curry!

went here with my grandma and my dad!! we got the chicken satay, fresh spring rolls, chicken pad thai, and the pumpkin curry. my dad ordered the pumpkin curry—pretty different from our usual thai order—and it was phenomenal!! the salmon with it was lovely, and the entire curry was delicious! probably my favorite dish we got :) i’m a huge chicken satay, pad thai, and thai tea person and all were to my liking 👌 very well done. the spring rolls were great, i loved the sauce! staff was very sweet :)

I've eaten here a few times over the past year and enjoyed it. But now under new ownership, the food is not so good. Very disappointing.
Amazingly quick service with even better food. 👌

Ordered mango sticky rice and the mango was dark and clearly rotten. My family used to love coming here but I've heard they changed ownership, and so did the food.

Got beef laab. Was literally just cooked beef with Thai peppers and mint. No other seasoning and was incredibly disappointing. We also got such a small portion of lettuce.
Nice people; good Thai food.

Wonderful Thai fried rice, avocado rolls, and several kinds of Curry. Seven in our group and we loved it all. Service a little slow but we were just assertive.
Restaurant is under new ownership. I placed my order for Pork Eggrolls (the same as I’ve done for years) they told me they only have veggie and Chicken now but they are the same quality). I asked how many came per order they said 3. I should have pushed harder because they were selling 3 to an order now and said nothing had changed… the wrap for the eggroll and ingredients are entirely different now. Game changer for my family unfortunately. Previous owners supposedly left them this inventory so they thought it was the same item.. totally disappointed. They were apologetic at least and planned to investigate..

Delicious. I ordered Khan Soi Noodle (Coconut Curry Noodle) soup with pork; requested very mild. Wonderful, rich flavor.

Ate here for dinner last night and spent the whole night getting sick with food poisoning. Not only never going back but never looking in this restaurant’s general direction again.
Have eaten here multiple times now, and it’s been great each time. Delicious flavors.

Delicious food and pretty good service. Flavors were decent and the spice level i requested was spot on. I ordered my meal and it was served in less than 5 minutes.

Got the salmon pumpkin curry. Spicy, but not so much that my low spice tolerance couldn't handle it in small doses diluted with rice. The flavor was excellent and the portions so large I have enough left for 1-2 more meals depending upon how hungry I am.
The restaurant itself is fairly large for where it is and has a great ambience to it. There was hardly anyone there while I was eating but the waiter stopped by multiple times to check that everything was ok and and the staff were all very nice.
