Great food and great service. Be careful how you order the portions are huge, no need for 2 separate meals 1 meal will feed 3.

Did some research on where to eat while heading back home from a vacation at Gatlinburg. Checked online reviews and food/menu pictures reviewers posted for many restaurants and decided on this one. So glad we did. We all loved what we got. 6 year old got fried tofu, dad got his favorite crab rangoons (and liked them) and ping siin moo, and I got red curry with tofu. We also got 2 of their desserts to go (haven’t eaten them yet but assuming they’re going to be great, too). Such a pleasant stop for our lunch. Wish we had this restaurant in our home town, too. Oh, the guava candy they gave us with the check was amazing as well - going to order some from Amazon! Also, the restaurant is next to bunch of businesses with plenty of parking.

Lots of options for people craving Asian food! If you’re vegetarian, they have many accommodations to their menu that they can make. I ordered spring rolls with tofu and the Pad Kee Mow and both were so flavorful. You get a lot for what you pay for too. Hope to try more one day!

Went for lunch by myself. First time there. Small place probably seats 25 one server running the place did a fantastic job. Got the Pho And it was great!

Got the crab fried rice with seafood and the fried egg rolls… they gave a sampling of their sauce rack with multiple sauces and peppers. It was seriously good. $30 tab but in my opinion it was worth it cause the seafood was perfectly cooked and not small pieces at all. It was a huge portion. Take my money any time! I was just visiting town but I hope I can make it back sooner or later. Oh also you can choose your spice level 1-5. I did 3 and it was perfect for me. But did have the nose running a little bit but it was so worth it. ?

I haven't written a restaurant review in quite some time, but this place has enticed me to do so. They food is amazing, we had two different dishes and both were wonderful. Careful how you order if you don't like spicy. The waitress was pleasant, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions. It's in a small restaurant suite but still welcoming.

Excellent food and great service! The waitress was kind, caring, and personable. The food did not disappoint, and I am rarely satisfied with the quality and flavor of restaurant food, therefore, we rarely eat out. We will return next time we are in the area.

Best crab rangoon I've ever had! My husband and I both enjoyed our noodle dishes. We had plenty to take home as well! Very generous portion sizes. It's a small place with a great atmosphere. Very clean and bathrooms are also clean! Great service!

Absolutely incredible! The BEST spot for pho. We drive a half hour just to eat at this place. It is LEGIT and AUTHENTIC. Some of the best chicken pho I’ve ever had in my life. Staff is friendly and remembers my fiancé’s order because he goes so often. We love supporting this place because they do such a great job and the chefs really know what they are doing. If you are thinking of going here- just go!

Best pho in the tricities. It tastes like a warm hug! Everything is delicious. The fried dumplings and egg rolls are my favorite. The curry fried rice and Thai fried rice are excellent. This is my favorite restaurant hands down in the region.
