I first discovered this place over ten years ago and have been going out of my way to come eat here any time I travel to the DC area. The fried chicken and steak plates are amazing! Best thing ever! Taste and flavor has been consistent throughout the years. The spice adds just the right amount of umph to the plate. I also recommend the fried pork belly and pork fried rice.

We were in the area and decided between the two Thai restaurants in the plaza, this was clearly the one to visit as even with the small quarters people we heading inside in packs. Blown away by the simplicity yet bold flavor of the Drunken Stir Fried Shanghai Noodles! The Massaman curry didn’t disappoint and we’ve already vowed to run it back for the star of the show.. rockfish! S/o to Tu the owner who showed us nothing but genuine hospitality 💯👌🏾

It was really quiet on a Saturday for lunch, but had a good time here. I went with the chicken Pad Thai, which was presented very nicely and tasted good. It's not the largest portion nor the cheapest restaurant you go to, but overall you're getting good Thai food.

Hands down to one of best Thai restaurant in NOVA, the owner is very friendly and the staff are very welcoming. You can’t miss out their well-known seasonal dishes . Fresh and delicious 🤤

Very special Northern Thai cuisine. Been there several times and it never disappointed. The Cornish Chicken is a must try! Came again and tried their deep fried rock fish and special grilled soft shell crab and both are very delicious.
