Customer Reviews
The portions were big and service was very fast so that’s a big plus! I eat Thai food a lot and this green curry was like a 4/10. The tofu was good and there was a lot of it but the curry n veggies were just ok. The veggies were soft to the point of falling apart and the tiny cubed carrots and wrinkly greyish peas make me suspect both came from the freezer. Bummer. The spring rolls tasted fresh but I swear there’s a carrot shortage happening because the rolls were mostly bean sprouts and rice noodles. I hadn’t eaten all day and I was pretty hungry so that bummed me out. I’m sure they have other good stuff on the menu but I certainly wouldn’t come back for this order.
The food was okay, good amount, good taste but the server wasn't friendly at all with anybody, I mean I get it. She was overworked by her self she probably walked back and forth at least 35 times in 30 minutes I spent there. Ignores my questions just cause she was too busy but its okay, I'm not mad
This is our go to place but saw this thing happening to two families plus us. Waitress ran out of restaurant to tell 2 families that they didn’t tip. She was shouting at them. She told us that 10% tip is not enough in front of other guests and said change it to 25%. The service was nothing but bringing the food to table. No hi, hello or how’s the food. Not even a water refill. No smile. We had to go get the water. This waitress needs to be fired otherwise she will take down this beautiful homely restaurant to ground.
Tried the Pad Thai noodles and did not like it at all. Had this peculiar smell which wasn’t good and when asked about it they mentioned it was the standard Thai curry paste. Had Chicken satay and Veggie potstickers and were decent. We had to leave the Pad Thai after one bite as we couldn’t even take the smell of it.
Pad Kee Mao was too oily and not well seasoned. The veggies seemed not fresh or overcooked. In general food wasn’t up there, service was nice and fast.
