Arunee is a very spacious and modern looking Thai place. Supposedly, they have moved a couple times, but I have only been to this current location. The food is extremely authentic and very affordable too. I recommend coming for one of their lunch specials, which are all around only $9. Their bento box is especially filling with an entree and some soup, salad, rice and an appetizer. I thought their pad see ew was excellent too, with the perfect texture and flavor.

Had my favorite thai appetizers; spring rolls and chicken dumplings. I also drank a glass or three of Sangria de Maracuyá ( white sangria ). And as always, I ordered a grilled salmon; amazing food

Vegetarian options: I eat Whole Food Plant Based =1/2 starch 1/2 non-starch veggies - I found restaurant very accommodating ?They graciously steamed instead of sautéed/fried and substituted Tofu for the meat/Seafood part! Under Mamma Ya’s Entree’s: Tamarind sauce with broccoli and bok choy was delicious with the Tofu! Perfect lunch out for me.

Food is good, Cash only and it gets busy. They have a nice garden outside. I want to go back to try more dishes

Food looked AMAZING and portions were just right for lunch. Also (not pictured) we had a dessert with whipped cream and fruit loops on top that was aesthetic and especially perfect for my grandmother since it was "not too sweet". Great service (our water cups were constantly filled) and the restaurant was long with sleek, authentic Thai wall art that was super appealing!

I asked for Pad Kra Prao with a bit less spice and this is what they gave me. 13 dollars for bland chicken on rice with soy sauce with onions and pepper. I'm surprised, because friends of mine have had good experience there.Genuinly annoyed and kind of upset. I ordered take out, I wish I looked at it first. There must have been a mistake, there is no way they purposefully gave me this.The salad was good.EDIT: I spoke to them and there was no mistake. They don't serve Pad Kra Prao the way it is for lunch, and they still say it is Pad Kra Prao on the menu without telling you. So now I feel less bad for my review.

Love this place so much! The ambience is so comforting and pretty and elegant yet chill. Food was amazing ! You don't have to wait too long at all. Also the water is also refilled immediately which is a huge plus again for me. It wasn't loud so you can hear your partner talking. And the food was just so light and fresh, where after eating I didn't have to go to the potty lol it was so great !!! Love it and so coming back here again. Def must go !!omg forgot to mention affordable !!!!

The service and food was phenomenal! beautiful ambience as well.They have a fair a selection of food. Drinks are also top notch,We enjoyed the satay, chive dumplings and chiken pad Thai(not pictured).
The restaurant space is very modern and hip. They have beautiful plants up in the front with a beautiful painting to compliment the front area. Music was great and in combination with the food and drinks, it was an amazing vibe! Thank you for the awesome service, will be back soon!

This place has great food. We ordered the Hoy Taud appetizer, Mango Salad, pineapple fried rice with chicken, panang curry with chicken, Pad sew eiw with tofu and shared everything family style. There was 4 of us and we were stuffed. Every dish was amazing and highly recommend all these dishes. The mango salad was so refreshing. We had a few folks in the group that did not like spicy food, so we ordered everything mild and it was very very tasty (as someone who loves spicy food, I didn't miss the heat at all). Highly recommend!Paramita

I simply can’t find anything bad to say about this amazing establishment. From appetizers, to entrees, to desserts, everything is made fresh and from the heart. I am obsessed with the Suki Soup and my partner will always get the Kao Moo Dang or the Duck Curry! The fried ice cream is to die for as well as their Thai Iced Teas! Cocktails are always on point too. Customer service and attentiveness is better than a lot of restaurants nowadays in the metropolitan area and the staff is always more than happy to answer questions and/or accommodate any food allergies/changes to a dish if it’s possible! Overall, I wish this restaurant will always be around as it brings me so much comfort and a full belly!Kid-friendliness: Plenty of options for kids to eat as well it is a nice atmosphere!Parking: Pretty easy parking nearby especially near the end of the nightWheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible from the street/sidewalk

I used to order here often for lunch but I stopped ordering due to lack of flavor. I have been back here before for happy hour which is great. Their lychee martinis are absolutely delicious. I decided to give this place another shot for lunch so I ordered their lunch chicken pad Thai. I can honestly say I was super disappointed; the chicken had no flavor, the noodles has even less flavor and it was just not good. I called them and requested a new dish which they were very polite about and didn't hesitate. They asked me what was wrong with my dish and I told them it lacked flavor. Their response was that they don't add too much flavor or seasoning to their food which honestly baffled me. They gave me the pork pad see eiw. I thought this one would be better but it wasn't. The whole dish was greasy and lacked flavor all around. Will not be ordering lunch from here again.

I enjoyed lunch special with my friend and my baby. The owner, Azuma was very friendly and very nice to my 7 months baby. We enjoyed the lunch time with the Christmas tree decorations. Thank you. ?Kid-friendliness: High Chair is prepared for babies, the staffs and the owner were very friendly to children.
