This is the best Thai food I’ve had in a very long time. I’ve tried the Pad Thai, the Pad Noodle with Peanut Sauce and the spring rolls. The peanut sauce is superb. We have dined in and gotten takeout.

What a delicious find. We stopped by on our road trip to California and stopped by for lunch. The food came out quick! Portions are generous, which helps with my 4 teens. Ordered 3 dishes to share. The stir fry each came with a bowl of rice. Ordered cashew chicken, pepper beef, and pad thai. All were delicious. We liked it so much that we ordered take out for dinner to eat once we reach our hotel. Stop by, you won't regret it.

** Just wanted to add that the take out portions were got were very generous too! ***

Who knew? Good thai food in Jefferson. Small family owned with great service and flavorful food. We were in the area for Thanksgiving with family and ate here the night before. Everyone was happy, great curries, pad Thai, and more. We had a great evening, I am pretty sure one of the owners was our server and she was fun and helped make our evening a bit better. Nice surprise!

The owners are SO kind and the food is SO good. The $10 lunch specials can't be beat! Food is also always ready really quickly, which is great when I need a meal fast!

Food was delicious and serving size was very generous. I ordered the shrimp pad thai, it was a mound of well seasoned noodles and about 7 jumbo shrimp tossed in. When I couldn't decide on an appetizer the waitress without hesitation suggested serving me a half of each plate.
There was a very slight communication difficulty but the hostility and desire to accommodate was welcoming.
I would discourage from sitting next to the door like I did, the breeze when it was open can be quite cold in November.

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Four generations of our family are absolutely obsessed with this place. We’re moving across the county, and honestly, leaving this gem behind feels like leaving family.

Let me tell you, the Pad Thai here? Perfection. Best I’ve ever had. And the Tom Yum soup? It’s our go-to comfort in a bowl—always delicious!

Special shoutout to Nora, the sweetest server around. Her smile lights up the room, and her sunny attitude could brighten even the cloudiest Oregon day. We’ll miss her like crazy, but we know she’ll keep spreading the joy to everyone lucky enough to eat here.

We’ll be back every time we’re in town—worth the drive, even if it’s just for one last slurp of that amazing soup. And a heads-up: they’re closed on Mondays, so prepare for a one-day-a-week Thai-food fast.

This was perhaps the best Thai I’ve ever had. Incredibly friendly staff and owners. Clean, spacious, and very prompt. The kind of food you just keep digging into. Had significant leftovers after a long day of exploring (big portions!). Recommend driving out of the way for this place!

Vegetarian options: Pretty much everything is available with tofu!

Dietary restrictions: Most dishes are gluten free! Also vegan options. Nothing is spicy unless you ask — we asked for 3 out of 5 and it was a perfect medium.

Parking: Probably 20 lot spots, plus street parking, all free!

Wheelchair accessibility: Front ramp, no step, accessible bathroom, not tightly packed with tables!

I recently visited a very hole-in-the-wall spot in the small town of Jefferson, recommended by a friend. I would have never visited otherwise, but I’m glad I did. The hostess provided such friendly service, making the experience even better.

The food was great value for the price. I really enjoyed the drunken noodles, which were very savory and had lots of veggies so was filling. The crab rangoons came with a nice savory-sweet sauce and had plenty of meat in the filling. The pad Thai was excellent, and the chicken was perfectly cooked very soft.

I do wish they served chili oil, though. They have chili sauce and dry chili flakes to accompany the dishes, but chili oil would be a great addition.

I’ll definitely make another trip!
