This place is not the same as before. Seems changed ownership and sank. The chicken is processed, McDonald's is better and I got sick a few hours after eating. The service is like a fast food joint, you order and pay at the counter. Just terrible experience all around not worth spending any money to eat here. I'll make the 40 min drive to Roanoke for good Thai Food instead of eating here.

Spicy noodle soup and Basil fried rice was really great. I had all Tai hot level, and It was pretty spicy. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I’ve eaten here before and the food is good but I came in this evening with a group of 12 which was really 10 with two babies and the waitress was extremely rude. She said there was nowhere to seat us so a group of men saw that we didn’t have anywhere to eat. They stood and told us to sit there. She refused to give us the seating stating all of a sudden it was a 45 minute wait. She also claimed the bathroom was unavailable. My family came from Connecticut and was appalled by the utter disdain on the face of the waitress. My father was shocked at the treatment and questioned if this was 21st century Virginia or Alabama in the 1930’s.

Excellent food. Perfectly cooked fried rice. “Thai heat” level was actually hot in the green curry, which tasted exquisite.Portions might be a little on the smaller side, but then again, so are the portions in “fine dining” restaurants. Bottom line, this restaurant truly has high quality Thai flavors.

This is one of the best restaurants in the area, I say! I'm addicted to their curries, stir fries, and noodle dishes. There is limited seating, but they have wonderful takeout options as well to make up for it. I highly recommend if one enjoys Thai.

We went in for lunch on a visit to VT with the family. We are all vegetarians and there was, as expected a lot of choice for vegetarians. The panang curry was served hot and delicious! The order took some time to come out. Wish it was faster but the food was great and I would love to visit again

Portions are ridiculously small! I went here 3 months ago and portions were twice the size. Food is good but it isn't worth the price.

While the food is pretty good, the owner always has her kid there. She’s the definition of an iPad kid. What bothers me was in the open restaurant, she has her iPad on FULL volume. No one wants to be in a restaurant listening to the sound of coco melon on full volume. I kindly asked her to have her daughter turn it down and the was visibly upset that I asked her that. She stared at me and just walked away. It left me so confused it was probably the rudest thing I’ve experienced. Social awareness.

Giving 2 stars just because of the food. The food is amazing and so good. But the problem I have is with the waitress. She is so rude. It’s the Asian girl who always wears black.I feel so bad to even mention but me and my fiancé were treated badly because of of our color and just because of how we look. She only seems to enjoy serving white people. I wish owner will take some steps about it. I feel hurt and upset. Such a racist.

I'm a picky eater if there every was one, but y'all, I would eat here every day.The food is always fresh and delicious. Some things I've had that you've got to try:Appetizers:-Chicken Satay (SO tender and delicious)-Spicy Chicken Wings (I don't do spicy, but these make my mouth water in the best way)Main Course:-Panang Curry (or any curry really. The literal best. Chef Kai never disappoints)-Crispy Pad Thai (GET THIS. Seriously. Thank me later.)Drinks:-Any of the buckets. Perfect for 2 people to share, or to enjoy by yourself.But seriously. If you have the opportunity to go here, please go. It's perfect for everything from just having some chill drinks, to having a nice sit down meal with friends/family.

The food is actually really good and the price is very reasonable. The staff is very rude and slow. She didn’t offer chopstick to my friend just because he was not asian. I was just disappointed with the service because the food was actually good. The soup is really refreshing and pad thai is very delicious.

It’s a nice little family owned restaurant. The portions and prices are reasonable. The waitress was very nice and quick to get the food out. The food hit all the right places and the service was superb even though they were busy.

The hostess/server was very rude and did not allow us to be seated with a service dog. She said no dogs and we would have to sit outside (in January). We explained about the dog but she still refused. A man from the kitchen came out and tried to explain to her it was illegal not to allow us but she apparently is afraid of dogs. He told her he would serve us. She continued to refuse and went into the back to talk to someone else. We chose to leave as I would not want to pay for horrible treatment or trust someone so angry to make/serve my food. I appreciate the man who tried to educate the other person.

I love the food. It is always great however service and speed are not very good. The older lady who works there is rather unpleasant. Makes it seem like it's a chore to serve you. Even as far as purposely ignoring us when we were anything but demanding, just asking if we could eventually get a refill on water. The food came out one dish at a time with at least 5 minutes between each, even on appetizers. which makes no sense because you should be able to make two identical appetizers come out at the same time by making them both at once. I think I may order take out but I won't sit in anymore.
