Best Thom Kha Soup, made how it’s supposed to be made. Super creamy/tangy/ and perfect spice. Most other places they make it way too watered down and leave in the aromatics that you can’t eat.

The food is great, the servers are kind. There's definitely a bit of language barrier. I love the family history and why they choose to share their grandfather's recipes. Very clean and accommodating.

The restaurant was clean, and the food was good, but service matters most when people come out to eat—after all, good food can be made at home too. We arrived about 30–40 minutes before closing (9:00 PM), which may explain why the staff seemed rushed and didn’t check if we needed anything.
However, I found their actions disrespectful. Two staff members were involved: one sprayed tables near us with strong-smelling cleaning spray while we were still seated, and another came to take back our sauce platter, telling us to take whatever we needed immediately because they were closing. Having cleaning done around us while removing items we were using felt both uncomfortable and disrespectful.

Excellent food with great flavors. Tried signature and traditional food. The traditional food (drunken noodles) was very good. Std service and generic ambience. Will repeat.

This is the first time for me, as a test I always try the Phad Thai, if it’s seasoned right, usually the rest of the menu is good. This restaurant passed my initial test. Keep up the quality and I shall be back to try other dishes.

Beware when you order!!! Read the bottom part of the review. Authentic is the key word.
The service was excellent with added value because of genuine understanding that you were here for an experience, and they want spell that experience almost humble opinion. Curious, clean, friendly.

I don't know how to spell what I got, but, I grade ingredients! Wonderfully blended and put together to make more than a meal into a delightful experience. I think it was was.. Udon han soi?

In my vast experience with ordering spicy food, this is authentic. I told them when I ordered I hear your authentic with your spice chart for choices, and I like it hot! Yet, I did not want to overdo it so I made the medium choice and asked for hot sauce on the side. I picked medium for three out of five depending on how you look at it, and it was perfect! It was equal to a five or high heat level at some places or a four at others. It was enough to light the fire, but not enough to make it explode.

I am an occasional traveler to the area, I highly recommend giving this place a try either with your favorite Thai dish, or to try something new. I usually judge if I'm coming back to a restaurant based on their Tom Kha.
I will be trying that next time probably

A really delicious Thai food meal. The service was very polite and good. The food came fast. I will say this is probably one of the most delicious Thai food meals that we’ve ever had. They have some great combination plates for two people. My wife and I split something. We don’t remember what we ordered and it was just the right amount of medium spice and absolutely delicious. We will be coming back to eat here again.

Fantastic taste, detailed service, and comfortable atmosphere. It feels like I’m eating at someone’s family table. I usually get chicken pad Thai, and it’s level of spice and blend of flavors is well done; some of the best pad Thai I’ve had. The food looks like what they show on the menu, so it feels very honest and genuine from their part. We also got a hot-pot soup, and the presentation was fun with the way it’s served in a metal hotpot. I really like this place :)

Phenomenal taste. I was looking up for some good thai place close by as I was in no mood to drive all the way to Paadee in portland. Found this place in Pdx eater list. I loved every bite of all the dishes. Highly highly recommend.

Main dishes taste great. Their Pad See Ew is a must try. It's literally the best Pad See Ew I've had. However, we have not had excellent experient service here. Wait staff is cold and unresponsive; mainly one of the woman waitress. Comes with your food just sets it on the table and walks away. No smile. No explanation of which dish they have brought. I know they are capable of warmth and smile because we see it when they interact with Caucasian customers. Just very cold in general. They don't seem happy to see customers. Really a small simple improvement to their wait staff will do wonders for this restaurant.
