★★★★★ 5.0 Jen H · Dec 2025

This has my new favorite Thai restaurant in the bay! Their dishes are absolutely phenomenal and they do use real Thai basil in a few of their dishes! Notable dishes are their kow soi duck, anything with the pork belly, and their wings of kapow for me. I have truly enjoyed every dish here and nothing has disappointed me so far. The Kow Soi though I think is special. I haven't had the opportunity to enjoy Kow Soi often and most of the time, I feel like it's too soupy for my preference. I love that they separate the curry from the noodles so you can choose how much you want! Their dishes are well priced and portions are good. Between two people, I normally get two entrees and an appetizer to share and there's leftovers. The restaurant itself is not too big with a few tables that can sit 4

Wonderful addition to the area, there was a wait on the weekend but despite being busy service remained very friendly. Every thing we had was delicious & very fresh. The wings were super tasty in particular & noodle dishes.

This place is easily my favorite restaurant in the Tri-City East Bay. All the things we ordered were so flavorful and we enjoyed every dish. I already am planning to come back. Definitely check this place out

I went with my family, which included my mom, brother, and our kids. The 6 of us spent almost $240, which includes double tips. I think they charge us an automatic tip when there are 5 or more people in a group. But I accidentally and additionally tip 7% more. Therefore, you can conclude that this is a rather expensive and high-end restaurant in Union City. See the price per plate listed below. With that being said the food was great. My brother and I, both 50+ years old, gave it a rating between 7/10 and 9/10, with 5 being okay. By the way, we are Thai. The following is what we ordered, ordered by the best to the least favorite, but still good.. yes 7/10 is good. 1. The CREAMY SALTED EGG SQUID $26 2. PAD KEE MAO $18 6. KA-POW 'SIRLOIN' BASIL FRIED RICE $34 4. WING OF KAPOW $15 3. GUI C

We got to try this this week for lunch and we really enjoyed it. I saw it on Instagram and the instagrammer made such a great video highlighting their various dishes and we bookmarked it! We had the pad Thai and red curry. The flavors were delicious, were served by the owners and they were a pleasure to chat with. We look forward to coming back and trying other dishes there!
