Went here when they first opened and just recently now as well, and I gotta say the food has leveled up even more! Which I didn't think was possible. All their noodles dishes are delicious and the waitress was incredibly nice and welcoming. Don't skip any of their seasonal items as the Mango Blossom dessert was delicious!! Always my goto Thai restaurant!
Very good Thai food all around; probably some of the best Thai in Pittsburgh and one of the top restaurants in the area. Tonight, I tried their pad see ew with vegetables and the volcano roti. Both were excellent.The pad see ew was saucy...finally! A place that is liberal with the sauce almost always satisfies me. Here, this sauce is flavorful and has the right balance of sweet to saltiness. It's got just a hint of spice, even when you order a 0 on the spice scale. These noodles are thick and chewy, as they should be. The dish isn't too oily and has a nice portion for the price. Keep in mind when they say they make Thai street food, the portions are still going to be plentiful.My only qualm with their pad see ew (and most of their entrees, for that matter) is that they up-charge you for every protein. Not just shrimp, mixed meat, seafood, beef, pork, but also for chicken and even tofu. So, the price can quickly add up, but it's still fairly reasonable. They are definitely liberal with the vegetables, too, and they give a nice variety. There's Chinese broccoli (gailan), corn, green beans, and other vegetables. To me, they were a bit undercooked. I also personally prefer more noodles than protein or vegetables so the ratio was a bit skewed in my opinion, but for most people, this should be a plus.The volcano roti definitely blew me away. Easily a five star dessert which would be even better a la mode. The crispy roti with the delicious chocolate roti on top is alone incredible, and not overly sweet. The texture is perfect too. But then you add the condensed milk on top, and it knocks your socks off.All in all, this is a great little Thai spot with what seems to be a charming atmosphere. The food is cheap for the portion, but you do have to pay extra for any protein. The volcano roti is insanely good though!
Everything was amazing. We got dumplings, tofu, curry, and fried rice at our table. The desert, Mango blossom, was delicious. We will for sure be back
No matter how bad you want to finish the delicious entrees, save room for desert! This cute spot on Murray Avenue has such a sweet homey feel. Our server was excellent, very attentive and friendly. I ordered a Thai iced coffee and to my surprise she brought over a huge tankard filled to the brim ? I am not complaining by any means, I was on cloud 98 (see what I did there? ?)We started our meal off with the Golden Tofu. It was very hot which is essential for good fried tofu. The nuggets could have used a little more salt but only to add to the wonderful flavor of the sweet chili peanut sauce. It kind of made me feel like a kid again eating sweet and sour chicken when my family ordered Chinese food.For our entrees we got the Tom Yum Fried rice with shrimp and the Shrimp Spaghetti Kee Mao. Both incredible and complex with flavors I personally don’t come across everyday. The shrimp spaghetti was a tiny bit too salty in my opinion but not enough to fuss about, I’m more just trying to think of what they could work on.To finish off our amazing meal we got the mango sticky rice! I had somehow never tried this dish until today. I am usually too full by the end but this time I planned ahead!! The warm, gooey rice went so perfectly with the cold, perfectly ripe mango. And then dipping it in the coconut milk sauce was just a dream?We will definitely be coming back as we have dubbed this the new best Thai place that we have been to. Thank you for having us!- wellfedartist.net
I want to preface this review with the fact that I am Thai and grew up eating homemade Thai food. The papaya salad had okay flavor, but way too many carrots in relation to papaya and no fresh herbs. The salad rolls I was expecting to be like summer rolls, but they were very bland. Zero herbs, no cilantro, no mint, no cabbage; only lettuce, mango, and cucumber. The tom yum soup was good and very spicy. Overall, disappointed.
Was looking for a quiet nice place to enjoy some Pad Thai - this definitely fit the bill. Their menu has much, much more than just the basics though, and I'm definitely eager to come back and try more of it. Never had a Thai Iced Tea in a mug that big before - big enough for two to split. What I really want to try next time is some stuff on their brunch menu.
Excellent food at this small unassuming and casual restaurant. The dishes are prepared and served in a way that reminds you of your grandmothers cooking. It's no frills and excellent. We were traveling through town and someone recommended this place. We were a group of 6 and ordered many different dishes to try. Each dish was great! I really hope we have the opportunity to go back.
We go here regularly, great Thai food (and Roti) that has a mix of authentic and "Americanized" food. It's a small restaurant but always busy, and for good reason.The spicy foods have varying levels of spiciness, and range from Gapow Spicy Fried Rice to many different curries and Tom Yum.I would say the authenticity is quite good for Pennsylvania, and is on par with many dishes I had in Thailand.For beverages, they offer Milo and Thai Iced Tea, along with others.Overall a great place that my wife and I come to often.
How good the food is depends on what you order. The curry, pad thai, soup noodles, and pad see ew were very good. However, the pineapple fried rice was the worst fried rice I've ever had in my life and worst pineapple fried rice also. It's strange for it to be THAT bad. It tasted like someone who had no idea how to make fried rice made it. Way worse than at a mall's food court, Panda Express, or even my own cooking (which is not that great). The salad rolls were okay. I really didn't care for the sauce, which was very sweet and thick like mayonnaise. They are as advertised (literally "salad rolls"), but I don't think they are better than the typical fresh rolls from any other Thai restaurant. The portions were generous. I recommend trying it, but avoid the fried rice
This quaint little Thai eatery just crashed onto my Top 10 places to eat!! We started with the Thai Tea and Salad Rolls. We finished with the Pumpkin Red Curry with Vegetables, heat level 1 and the Winter "Special" Noodle Bowl with Tofu, heat level 3. Both were very, very, very good.. you literally tasted every ingredient in every bite. Price to portion ratio was very good also. Service was attentive and excellent. Only con is that the rest rooms are down stairs. Thanks for having us!
