★★★☆☆ 3.0 Taylor-Leigh Adams · Jan 2026

Can only speak to our to-go order but dang the food was SPICY. Purposefully ordered “mild” so I can share with my toddler but I have a feeling there’s not much difference between the spice levels. And my family can handle pretty spicy food. The perfect balance to me is a kick of spice but just enough to taste the flavor and enjoy the meal. *if* we go back we will try no spice which sounds lame but I’d like to taste my food.

★★★★★ 5.0 Will K · Mar 2025

TLDR - Great food, service, and vibes. My wife says the portions are just right. It's not too much and not too little. Drunken Noodles dish was chewy and delicious. Just the right amount of spice. Pad Khing Sod was delicious. Good counter to the spicy dish. Food came out quick during an early lunch time. The parking is rough but doesn't take away from the experience. Should find public parking which is 1 hour max on ParkMobile

I’m not the biggest fan of Thai food but this place (kind of) changed my mind. The environment was great and so was the service. Recommend the soft shell crab pad thai.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jason Strachman Miller · Feb 2026

Food is terrific. Authentic flavors and the prices are very reasonable. We've tried too many dishes to list, everything tasted great!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Wendy C · Sep 2022

Fast service and good food but not amazing. Drunken noodles were pretty good but a bit salty. I wish it had been more spicy than salty. Pad see eaw was very saucy when normally it's pretty dry. Overall it's good but would not come again.
