**I have a receipt to prove to the owner that I dined in her restaurant. The woman seated in front of me got her check the same way. We took our checks to the register to pay. So, maybe she owes me an apology. Or, I could call my credit card company and tell them that charge on my card should be removed since the owner claims I was never there...** I get the one star reviews. The Pad thai was a funky brown, odd tasting dish. The side of peanut sauce didn't taste like peanuts at all. She got my drink order wrong and told me I was wrong.. then, she dropped the check without a thank you or asking if I wanted anything else. Disaster!

Authentic and delicious, highly recommend. You will not be disappointed in trying this place. Based on the location we thought we had lost it and almost turned around. I’m glad we found this little Thai food gem!!!
WOW! My kids and I are overwhelmed with delight! We've finally found the best pad thai in all of Albuquerque. The flavors are layered perfectly, the portions are plentiful, the service is very friendly and quick, the atmosphere is zen like, and very clean. One word... AMAZING!

Read the lower star reviews, but I think they have the wrong restaurant…lol. Four of us from out of town read about it and decided to try it. All of us thought the food was excellent and would eat here again on another visit. Service staff was also very nice. Some of the best Pad Thai that I’ve had.

You have to look for the entrance, which is just past the Talin Market store exit. Small restaurant with tasty fare and gracious service.

I brought some friends here because it use to be good. They said their food was bland. Mine was overcooked dried out pork with a cup of rice. Another place that has gone (way)down in their quality of food.

Took some friends there today for lunch 7/30/25.
The food was fantastic! ordered the stir fried eggplant, curry chicken and pad thai.
Problem was we were seated at the large table. My friends had finished but I was still eating as I still had food on my plate when a large group of eight people came in. The waitress kept trying to rush me so that she could seat these people at the table she sat us at. She even started sitting the people down at the other side of the table, saying we were finished. Even motioning me to get up to leave. She even took my plate away - I was not finished, I still had food on my plate. Thought it was totally RUDE! She sat us there when we came in. Then when this group came in she practically pushed us to finish quickly and to leave. She should have sat us at a smaller table to begin with. That was totally uncalled for and bad business. Did not appreciate being rushed and my plate taken away when I was still eating, just so she could sit these people there. My friends were not impressed with that waitresses attitude.

Enjoyed our experience and food at this smaller restaurant. Service was quick and the restaurant was not crowded on the evening that we went. Staff was courteous and the food was good and hot. Great overall experience.

My husband and I recently dined at this gem of a Thai restaurant we first discovered when moving to ABQ. Again, it was nothing short of fantastic.
We ordered the Pad Thai and the Tom Kha soup, and both dishes exceeded expectations. All thought it had been months since we last dined here, the server remembered the soup i last ordereed as well as the level of heat and which protein choices we preferred.The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced—sweet, tangy, and just the right amount of spice, with fresh, springy noodles. The portion was generous, and every bite had a satisfying depth of flavor that only comes from a well-practiced recipe.
The Kha soup is what keeps me coming back! Creamy, fragrant coconut broth infused with lemongrass, galangal, and a subtle heat that warms you from the inside out. The tender tofu and mushrooms were a perfect match for the silky texture of the soup. It was both comforting and complex—a real showcase of traditional Thai flavors.
If you're craving authentic Thai cuisine, especially a well-executed Pad Thai and a soul-soothing Tom Kha , this place is a must-visit. I should be exploring the deep menu but I hate to not order my favorite soup.
