It smells like Thailand when you walk in. I lived in Thailand for a year and have never found a Thai spot in Washington that brought be back like this one. We ordered the green curry, papaya salad, and fish cakes. Amazing! The service is fast, the vibe is fantastic, and of course the food is incredible. I can handle heat but that medium spice papaya salad was no joke! HIGHLY recommend, I wish I could give it more than 5 stars. Aroy mak 😍

I always come to this place for their pad see ew. Wrote a review once on them bc they overcooked and burnt my food. Decided to get the same dish a couple more times and today they did the same thing again. U can taste the nasty burnt flavor.. they need to start caring for peoples take out order not just dine in.

Hands down the best Thai food in the area. Both the Pad Ke Mao and Panang Curry with fried tofu are outstanding.

My husband and I make a point to come here at least once a month! The food is fresh, flavorful, and I’ve never had a bad experience.

Went to this place back to back 2 nights because the first night was great. I enjoyed it so much I wanted to take other members of my family the second night. Night #2 was the complete opposite of night #1. Night #2 they were busier, my wife and daughter got their food in about 35 minutes from ordering. They brought my rice, but the yellow curry dish never arrived, either did the tea my daughter ordered. 3 times my wife tried to get their attention as they walked by, no dice. At the 50-minute mark we finally got their attention, reminded them of the curry dish, tea, and if they could bring us the table chili sauces we were provided the night before. 20 more minutes goes by, food never arrives. Additionally, they don’t refill water glasses. You better make it last, I even intentionally set my empty glass on the edge of the table and they never refilled (Table Service 101 - never let a drink go empty). My water glass was empty at the 30-minute mark, we were there for an hour and 20. At the end I just told them to skip the curry dish and I was ready to leave. She barely walks into the kitchen and comes right out (like within 2 seconds) with a yellow curry dish all wrapped up in a to-go bag. I’m suspecting I may have gotten someone else’s to-go order to appease me. Additionally, I specifically ordered the yellow curry because it described potatoes in the dish instead of tofu. I got tofu and not potatoes. So disappointing, just another average (at best) Thai place in Tacoma. There’s some potential here, but the horrible service took all the flavor out of the experience.

It was fine.

Middle of the road overpriced Thai food.

I wouldn't recommend it, but if you just need to check a box and have some Thai food in your mouth, go ahead and go here.

Must try the Lemon grass chicken and pad kee Mao, they were absolutely delicious. The mango sticky was one of my favorites as well. The only issue is finding parking on a busy day.

I initially went to this restaurant based on a friends word of mouth review. When i walked in there were about 4 other tables occupied so they seemed fairly slow. The man who greeted us seemed to be irritated for whatever reason but came off a little rude. We sat ourselves and waited almost 15 minutes before someone came to our table to greet us.
We ordered our food at that time and took nearly another 30 minutes to get our food. Mind you, of the other tables that were occupied when i arrived a couple other tables had left, so it shouldn't take this long right? Maybe it's just me who thinks it took too long? Not sure, but when we finally received our food it wasn't that great.
We ordered the pad see ew, pad kee mao and the crab fried rice. All were pretty bland and the pad see ew had an almost burnt taste to it. We never had anyone come by to ask how our experience or food was. The only other interaction we had with anyone there was when we got our bill and pulled out a hundred dollar bill to pay our our check then the women started a little small talk, tried joking around and boxed our food for us.
I almost forgot to add that the mens restroom was disgusting.
Overall a poor experience. Needless to say we will not return.
