Has really declined in quality! Used to love this place.Ordered curry fish cakes appetizers. Rubbery, inedible. Friend had to run to the bathroom to spit it out. And we still got charged! Called later to speak with manager— same excuse as server, “It says on front of menu that because of Covid food cannot be sent back.” They lost a longtime customer!

Mediocre at best. Stopped for lunch. The portion was small. The green curry seemed watered down. The waitress was sweet and attentive, otherwise it would have been two stars.I'd rather try the other places in town than return here next time.

The lunch specials are phenomenal! Fantastic price and great food. Their fried Duck is the best in town! Try the lotus cups too. Pictured is the peanut sauce chicken. Very good

I had Thai Peanut Sauce with stir fry chicken. Absolutely delicious! Never ate Thai food before so this was a treat. Service was fast and friendly. Will return again.

Good food, but make sure you order your food extra spicy. I ordered at a level 3 spiciness and could barely taste it.

Noodles were spongy and lacking flavor. Also very basic/simple as far as Thai food goes. Even the fried rice came without any extra vegetables - only rice. Our 6 yr old asked where the carrots and peas were. Not bad, but left a lot to be desired.

The cost is relative to what I'm used to paying for Thai food, but the experience wasn't stellar. The portion sizes are about a third of what you'd get ordering the same type of entree from (for example) Chinatown Cafe, and this is a bit more expensive. On top of that, the sauces felt very thin and scarce. The ingredients felt like they were tossed together just before going out (EX: The chicken arrived on top of the other ingredients, and was mostly unsauced). They bill their cashew chicken as famous, but it was pretty underwhelming; cashews were whole, and you could heavily taste the oil in which the chicken had been cooked. The spring rolls felt mostly like air, due to the heavy amount of iceberg lettuce in them; with the only real pop there being the basil. The rice was also rather plain, even by sticky rice standards. The sauces were quite good, and everything we ordered was there. Not terrible food. I just don't plan on trying this again anytime soon.

We get Thai food a lot and almost always order the same items. Relative to other Thai restaurants, this restaurant’s portion sizes were REALLY small while actually more expensive than other restaurants. The food tasted fine but took a really long time (it initially said it would arrive at 6:45 but then kept getting pushed back and didn’t arrive until 7:15).

I ordered sweet basil ginger with tofu which cost $11+. The dish that was served you can count the tofu cubes, if I’m not mistaken 6-7 small cubes and the rest are small pieces of mushrooms, carrots and a bunch of onions. It isI not worth the money.
