What a gem !!!
Truly !!
One of the most underrated Thai restaurant
The Star Dish: Scallion Pancakes (Fried Chive Cakes)

The Scallion Pancakes were truly 100/10! They were absolutely spectacular—crisp on the outside, bursting with chive flavor inside, and perfectly seasoned. If you go, this appetizer is non-negotiable; it's a crispy, flavorful sensation I’ve never tasted before.

This is one of my favorite places! I visit them literally once a week. The food is incredible and the staff is very very kind!

The food feels like a home cooked meal. Always super fast if you eating in or doing takeout. Great price and comfortable option. Worth visiting if you are not a local, and a must if you live in the area this restaurant will become one of your favorite. ❤️
October 2025
First time here! We were presented with a warm welcome, and seated swiftly. Husband and I arrived during lunch time and got ourselves a dish and an appetizer; crab Rangoon, laab GAI, Thai fried rice (veggie), spicy noodle soup (chicken, thin rice noodle), and Thai tea with lime (forgot to take a picture 😩).

Tastes quite good and authentic. Even at an medium/mild spice level flavours are still there.
