My wife and I went here for lunch on a weekday. We were the only customers inside. That should have been a warning. The only staff member visible was a young woman who was consumed by her smartphone. She told us to sit anywhere we wanted, but was too busy to come over to give us menus or ask right away if we wanted drinks. We had to get menus off of other tables ourselves. We ordered thai ice tea, fresh shrimp spring rolls, pad see-iew, and sweet and sour Thai style. Both entrees came with a small salad with peanut sauce. The salads, spring rolls, and Thai tea were quite good. This place has a nice tasting, thick peanut sauce. However, the entrees and service were horrible. The pad see-iew was served boiling hot as lots of steam rose from it. There was no sweet sauce taste to it. It wa

Very unique curries that were different and delicious. I had the sweet curry with chicken and loved it. The Thai lemonade is also a must-try: lemonade and Thai tea together. The prices were a little high for the portion size but overall enjoyed the food. Service was also great.

I was really excited to try the mango sticky rice here, but it was honestly one of the worst I’ve had. The rice was hard and clearly undercooked—definitely not the soft, sticky texture it’s supposed to have. The mango pieces were huge, frozen, and flavorless, like they were just chopped straight out of a bag. On top of that, the entire dish was ice cold and looked nothing like the appealing photo they advertised online. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this was a total letdown. Definitely not worth the price.

Food was amazing and customer service was amazing as well! Can’t wait to come back here again! Highly recommend their Pad Thai, Classic Curry, and Thai Iced Tea!

★★★★★ 5.0 Victoria Stippick · Oct 2025

The food here is consistently great, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Customer service is excellent, and I’ve visited several times with a consistently positive experience. The place also offers a nice sense of privacy and calm, which makes dining there relaxing. While the decor feels a little dated, it doesn’t take away from what really matters — good food, great service, and a peaceful atmosphere. Definitely worth returning to.
