Very best spring rolls, peanut sauce, Tom Kah & service! (Yummy crispy shrimp & Tom Kah in pic)

Easy parking in the back. The restaurant is very nice, with lots of wood and greenery. The servers are friendly and attentive. The food was great (the phad see ewe, curries, pho & vermicelli noodles were all really good)!

We have been dining at Birdseye for over six years. During the pandemic our favorite meals were Birdseye take-out. We’ve never had a bad dish there. The appetizers are creative and delicious. We always share a wild mushroom salad. Though we don’t always order the same entrees my wife especially enjoys the Pad Thai and I often order the vermicelli noodles with crispy pork collar. They have a nice selection of IPAs along with Kombuchas, Mexican Coca-Cola and other non-potable beverages. The service is friendly and prompt and the atmosphere is always jovial. The mango sticky rice is a nice finish to a great, affordable meal.

I get their wok chicken noodles which is really quick to prepare and quite good. I really like how authentic it is and how their food has varying levels of spice

I feel bad marketing 2 star because the food has been generally good. But time we got carry out and when got home the veggies were burnt. Why would they give a customer burnt food, wasn’t worth taking it back. The noodles has soaked in the smell. Had to throw it in the trash.

I’ve come here a few times before and loved it. The last time I was there however I had bad service from a guy. The presentation wasn’t as good as usual, but the food is still really good. I had the drunken noodles and my wife had the curry noodles. I’m very happy with the consistency of the dishes.

We ate at this marvelous place for the first time tonight and I wanted to go back to the kitchen and kiss the cook!!!! The food and service were both outstanding! We ordered the following dishes: spring rolls, Tom Ka soup, pineapple fried rice. The freshness and flavors were incredible! Every. Single. Bite. You know when the food is so good you’re humming throughout the meal?!?!! We were both doing this the entire time. Just super good! Very attentive servers but not overbearing. We can’t wait to come back!

I'd say barely 4 stars only because our take out order of 4 entrees and an appetizer was over $100 and took 1.5 hours. We were told our would be ready in an hour. Ultimately, this was our mistake.The place was jam packed with patrons. The staff was hustling. They were friendly but heads down to keep up with all the in house customers and take out orders.The food was worth the wait. It was delicious Thai food. We got garlic chicken, cashew chicken, yellow curry noodles with shrimp and yellow curry noodles with tofu. We also got the egg rolls. We got ~8 which seems like it might have been an error, or they double charged us, or they felt bad about taking so long? Not sure but the important take away is the food was really good.So, just have a heads up for the cost and wait but otherwise, know you can't go wrong with this food.

Definitely an underrated restaurant. Spring rolls are incredible. Curry chicken noodle is wonderful and ginger stir fry is fantastic complement. Thai iced coffee is delicious. Room is airy and comfortable. Top choice!

If I could give no stars, I would. Wrong order, rude service, 3 hours late. The family that runs this restaurant has someone who knows how to make food. Unfortunately, they have not figured out how to run a business. Clearly there is significant dysfunction. Recommend to stay away.
