I go here frequently and love to get my regular favorites: potstickers and salad rolls with tofu. The peanut sauce is really good! The workers are friendly and will remember you if you go often enough. ;) Online ordering is easy.

This restaurant is too spicy - even when you ask for mild it comes eye watering and lip burning hot. They also never listen when you say no rice please and give you rice on every order. They need to be more attentive to customer requests.

Worst Thai food I have ever ordered. I asked for very spicy and everything I received was bland. I had to add lime, fish sauce, and pepper to my food, at which point I felt like I might as well have just made my own dinner. In a city with a ton of Thai options, I am making it a point to remember this place so I never order here again. Thai food is supposed to be flavorful and pack a punch, but I've had chicken nuggets with more kick than the food they prepared for me. One star is the lowest I can give and feels generous.

Nice people making some pretty good food. So far I've found it's either hit or miss on the items. The Oh My Good is delicious. The bbq chicken is not as good as others I've tried, but it's reliable and cooked correctly. Sadly, I don't recommend the Pad Thai, the flavor is ok, but the texture is a little mushy... Although when I've fried up the leftovers at home, that works well. I've heard good things about the curries.

Have had takeout here 2x. Today tried the mango+sticky rice. Pretty good.

Amazing food. The best thai food ive ever eaten. The squid chili jam is the best thing on the menu for sure i would definitely recommend it!

Oh wow, this place is really good. I probably haven't had Thai food in a while, the green curry was amazing. It was spicy, but nothing I couldn't handle. I most definitely will be back, absolutely loved it! (Oh I was too hungry to take a photo of the dish and thought of it when I was like halfway through...)

Such yummy food - we ordered many dishes and loved all of them! Service was great and the owner was very nice. Will be coming back soon!!

Great atmosphere and wonderful food. Service was friendly but sparse which is why I rated 4 stars. I had the Kao Soy and my wife tried the Tom Kha soup. Both were very good. We had the lobster balls as a appetizer and it wouldn't recommend those as they were a bit mushy and cold. I'm writing this review cuz I wait for mango sticky rice which I suspect will be wonderful based on our main dishes.

Quick, friendly service, with an inexpensive, varied menu. Easy to navigate menu, customizable in terms of spice level or to make vegetarian & vegan accomodations; portions are fair (we ordered for a family style meal & had plenty). Easy parking is a bonus.
