Not too pricey but the right amount to enjoy the food, decor, service, and atmosphere. The tall booths gave privacy to customers dining in while being clean and comfortable. Wide variety of options on the menu and it was organized so you could find things easily if they caught your eye. If you're ever in Wilmington and are looking for some tasty Thai food, I highly recommend this place, because it deserves five stars. Flooded around the restaurant were cultural artifacts and statues. Right away I could tell the place was very welcoming and relaxing. Our party of four was greeted in a friendly manner and quickly seated in a booth. Pop music played in the background and looking around, I could see statues of Buddha, carved elephants, and all the classic symbols of Thailand. The waiter came to take out orders and was very knowledgeable about the menu, specials, and drinks. The appetizers came first and we shared a plate of vegetable spring rolls and chicken satay. The spring rolls were delightfully crispy while dipped in a sweet, fiery sauce. The chicken satay was perfectly tender and cooked just enough to create the right flavors. Soon after, the main courses arrived and I ordered pad Thai with chicken. The dish had a generous portion of noodles mixed in with bits of juicy chicken and sprouts with crushed peanuts. This is one of my favorite foods so I had high expectations and it was above and beyond. My dining companions ordered different types of curry and everyone agreed that their dishes were delicious. The waiter came back a couple of times and was very attentive to everyone's questions or needs. The atmosphere felt casual but still elegant and the tables around us were being filled by the minute. The waiter returned and recommended one of the desserts that would be perfect to end our dining experience. We took his advice and even though we were full, we decided to split the dessert. He came back with a slice of coconut cake drizzled with chocolate. The first bite was moist and buttery, softened with the whipped cream. As we prepared to leave we were gifted with to-go boxes for the food that could still last us lunch for tomorrow.

Was double billed for our meals on my debit card, called and was told to come in and a refund check would be issued. Arrived and was told no it would come off debt card in three days. Called my bank and was told it would not, I would have to file a dispute. We won't ever go there again.

Absolutely love this place! Drunken noodles with beef is my go to with their tai fried rice and crispy spring rolls. They used to have chicken wings (which I thought were the BEST in town), but sadly took them off the menu. Overall, my wife and I love this place! (And secretly hope they bring back the crispy chicken wings!).

This is BY FAR, our favorite restaurant!!!!!! We live super close and this is our go to for take out. Their food is consistently amazing, absolutely delicious and cannot stop coming back! We have lived in the area since 2016 and have been coming here ever since! I am recently allergic to chicken so my go to is their crispy spring rolls, cashew nut with tofu and my husband regularly orders drunken noodles with beef. Whether we go there and score some seats at the bar, order to go, 10/10 the best

Thank you Jasmine!! My husband is diabetic and we needed Coke asap and you were so kind to give us some. We were not even customers but we’re at T-Mobile next door. He was at 55. He is type 1. We appreciate you more than you know and will come back to see you.

Another Porters Neck FAVORITE! We dine here regularly & absolutely LOVE the staff (owner is delightful!) and the food is always amazing. Sushi is SO fresh & everything tastes WONDERFUL here (seriously, pick anything on the menu & it's great! Surprise yourself with the Mango-Blue-Rice Dessert, unique & fabulous!)! Great lunch stop or even a date-night or just everyday good-eats for a fair price!
