★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jamillah Burchett · Aug 2025

I placed a mobile order for pickup and ended up waiting over 10 minutes past the ready time. Every time I asked, I was told it would be “five minutes,” but it felt like dine-in customers were being prioritized over takeout. The cashier was as polite and helpful as he could be, so I don’t blame him.. seemed like the kitchen was the real hold-up. The waiting area also needs improvement. It’s uncomfortable sitting right next to people who are trying to enjoy their meals while you’re just stuck waiting. By the time I finally got my food (after about 15 minutes), I still had a 25-minute drive home, which made the whole experience not really worth it compared to closer and faster options. As for the food, the noodles were decent quality but lacked much flavor. The pork belly however, was amazing

This place was amazing. It looks smaller than what it is, the inside was nice and warm. The staff was very nice, they greeted us right as we walked in and we had water and menus within seconds. Our waiter was very knowledgeable about their food as far as allergens go. I got the tom yum soup and the green curry. My husband go the fresh shrimp spring roll and the fried basil fish house special. Everything was very flavorful, I honestly couldn't believe it. I've had so many tom yum's, even while we were in Thailand, and this one, was one of the best I've ever had. The curry was just as flavorful and delicious. I wish I had a bigger stomach, so I could've eaten it all then, but I'm glad I don't, because I had enough for left overs! My husband loved his spring roll, he said it had plenty of shr

★★★★★ 5.0 Petra LaMotte · Jun 2025

This is our favorite sushi restaurant in Buffalo. The rice is always so delicious and the fish is so fresh. Ramen and their Thai dishes are also so good. Highly recommend!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Bill Lolo · Oct 2024

We visited close to closing time and were the only customers. We ordered drunken noodles, pineapple fried rice and a deep fried sushi type of thing. The food was very good! The tastes were all amazing. All the food was super hot when we got it at the table. I tried a Tai green cold tea for the first time and it was very good. The resturant was clean and well kept. The staff was attentive and did a good job. The bathrooms are single toilet rooms with a locking door. They were clean and well stocked with all the nessities. They could use an update but nothing was out of place or anything bad.

★★★★★ 5.0 Alexis Dee · Nov 2024

I’ve been here twice and all together I’ve ordered Thai iced tea (the best around here), chicken pad see ew (really good), samosas (also good). My friend also got a Thai iced tea and she ordered the beef pad Thai and said it was really good. Last time I ordered eel nigiri, Thai iced tea, chicken satay which comes with peanut sauce and cucumber sauce and it is SOOO good 100% recommend and I also got the vanilla mochi and it was such a good dessert. The employees are also very kind and helpful.
