A++++ the food was very fresh and everything was very delicious! It’s my new favorite Thai restaurant. Can’t wait to try brunch! Service was great. Going back Tuesday!

To make our story short.. We used to eat at this same location for over 20 years when it was called The King & I and we were very sad when they closed thinking we would never find another one like it😞 so today based on the good reviews we gave it a try still with some skepticism and little hopes but to our surprise we were happily delighted with everything we ate (beef cashew nuts pad, sweet & sour chicken and vegetables thai fried rice) it was as good as the place...

This family-owned Thai restaurant is truly a blessing. The owner is such a humble, kind woman, and her daughter helps her with so much grace. The food is always fresh, homemade, and full of flavor.
The restaurant is clean, peaceful, and welcoming. You can tell this isn’t just a business — it’s her heart. I pray this place continues to flourish because they absolutely deserve it.
