I’ve been here about 4 times now and it’s time to give it a review… this food here is outstanding, it’s truly the Thai flavor of how those dishes should be prepared. The staff is always pleasant and courteous each time I’ve been ! Definitely recommend to my friends and family anytime I take someone new especially to Thai food I take them here.. they have the best pad Thai and wonton soup I’ve ever had

We both really loved the food. Coming from Europe I am having a bit of a hard time with American food. Many dishes just tastes fatty and salty. But not here. Fresh ingredients, real spices and real flavor. Will come back!

I got take out from DoorDash, the pork bun was good. But the paper they used to separate it is terrible. It stick to the bottom completely and in order to not eat paper, most of the bottom bun has to be removed.

The pineapple fried rice with chicken lacks flavor and has odd ingredients. The chicken is dry. No mention of raisins in it online, and there’s huge pieces of broccoli… which also wasn’t directly mentioned. I really wanted to like the food but it’s definitely not the best by a long shot.

Ordered won ton soup via Uber Eats. $11.50 I was expecting at least a quart but received a cup. Just expensive, soup was excellent, however.

First time dinning here and the experience was great! Amazing hospitality and food. Plus we ordered appetizers, main dishes, drinks and desserts at a reasonable price. Will be dinning with you again. Thank you.

We’ve been coming to this restaurant for years, so it’s overdue for a review after a delicious lunch with too many amazing menu items to choose from for just one sitting. We have followed this family-owned and operated establishment since the days when they were a food truck, then they moved to a small place on a side street in Verona and now at the current bigger location. This is authentic Thai food of the highest quality, and it has never declined over all these years.

The pad thai has true flavor, not excessively sweet. If you want something sweet, the sticky rice is perfect. Pad see ew noodles are fantastic, as are the curries. Amazing veggie dumplings and spring rolls, and saving the best for last…the shrimp buns- lightly breaded and fried whole shrimp on a fluffy open bun with a lightly spicy mayo based sauce…you have to go just for these alone!

Also the ambience is great - big rounded windows let in plenty of light to contrast with the exposed brick. Plus the service is friendly. We really love this place.

My husband and I love Thai food and I wish I could give it a better rating. In my humble opinion they should stay within the status of a food truck provider. The food was less than mediocre, one could taste MSG additives in every dish we ordered and it was simply not to par with the Thai cuisine. The venue was not clean nor cozy as some of the customers claimed. This was a truly inferior experience. We would never come back.

Ordered online years ago and the options were no spice dare or even hotter. Ordered dare and threw it out. Told them as I was quite confused why the mildest option was not able to be eaten.

Had a craving a month or so ago and ordered no spice as the app was still not giving other option. told them that the app was still like this years later. He said he’d look at it and gave me some spices and said order mild. It was terrible spice to add it helped.

Tried one more tonight and asked for mild. Spice level is way off. Threw it out. Chicken is also very dry.

Also not good parking.

Moved from nyc. Trying to find decent Thai food in the area. Gave this place a try. The basil fried rice tasted like Uncle Ben’s Cajun rice. The rice was overcooked and had ingredients not in the dish. This 100% was an end of night reheated dish with basil added to it. Unfortunate since the curry was the more flavorful that we have had in the area. The drunken noodles were dry. Very disappointing.

Be careful with the spicy level!!! We came back for the dream place after moving. As usual, We ordered drunken nooodle for mild and Pad Pak. However, the noodle is much spicy than before and Pad Pak is too salty. A bit disappointed since we travel back particular for this place. Not sure if they charge the chef, just be careful if you are not tolerant with spicy
