From the outside the place is inviting with even a sign by the entrance. The decor was very eclectic.
I was immediately greeted and seated. While waiting for my friend I was served water.
It was lunch hour (until 3pm) so all dishes offered on the lunch menu is $12.99.
I ordered the Massamun curry.
First, the portion size served wasn’t as pictured in the menu. The curry visually had disproportionate protein/veggies ratio to curry broth where it seemed like they served the last serving of the pot with only a few veggies, 3 cubes of potatoes. The peanuts should have been slightly blanched as they were too hard/raw. The beef slices were dry and tough. The rice was very dry, not fluffy and tasted like it was a day old.
Must have been an off day but considering the drive from VA Beach plus my friend and I were eyeing and wanting to try this place for some time now, it was subpar to our expectations and what other reviews reflected.

This establishment is recognized as a premier Thai dining destination in the vicinity. The restaurant's ambiance reflects a charming, family-operated style, and the culinary offerings are exceptionally flavorful. I anticipate returning to this establishment frequently.

Horrible place, ordered food on website, it was stale and bad tasting. It was so bad I Vomited.
And they don’t care, when I called the person who picked up was rude, said call website and she doesn’t know if I am saying the truth. Horrible people. Said does not care about bad review either. Asked for Manager and she said manager is in hospital. Never go here.

I ordered this food via Uber Eats, so I cannot attest to the service or atmosphere. The food, however, was abysmal. Not only was it terrible as a Thai place, it was just terrible in general. The flavors were not at all like what I've come to expect from Thai cuisine, based on the countless restaurants I've tried from numbers different states and cities- the flavors were just not good in general. Even if I tried to imagine it was just some cuisine I've never tried before, it was still wildly unappealing. I simply cannot fathom what went so horribly wrong, but I have zero desire to ever get this place's food again. My stomach became rather upset after eating what little of my dish I forced myself to eat (I hate wasting food), but I have no way of knowing if that was because of the food, or just coincidence. Either way, there was nothing appealing about the food to make it worth the risk. Do not recommend.

Hmm, haven’t been here but a lot of people are saying “authentic”! That’s a sign it’s not and more then likely there all fake reviews or they have no clue what they are talking about.
Authentic? Why is “Thai Boat Noodles”, “Kapoon”, and such not on the menu?
Enough said.
