★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1This is a cute Thai place. Pretty good food. We got yellow curry, veggie spring rolls, pad Thai and drunken noodles. The taste was pretty good, not like amazing, but good for filling a craving. Not bad prices either. The seating area is tiny though. Most people get their food to go so just keep that in mind if you ever visit. Solid 7/10.
March 30 · Jade GonzalezFast, delicious, affordable. Great hole-in-the-wall. We got the lemongrass chicken and basil pork. Both excellent.
May 02 · Justin ElbertGreat neighborhood spot for a delicious and quick meal. Came upon it on a walk around the neighborhood and decided to pick up dinner. The food was ready quickly. The menu is fairly extensive and has something for everyone. The food is very delicious - the crab fried rice was succulent and light. The drunk man noodles was just perfect - well seasoned, balanced while not being overly spicy. This is now my new go to spot for Thai food in the neighborhood! Can't wait to try the rest of their menu!
June 11 · Sunshine BytheshoreLOVE THIS PLACE. First of all, such nice staff & fast service, perfect for if ur in the go, but also a cute and quaint spot if you want to sit for a quick meal. Second, delicious food. I got the chicken pad Thai, which was delicious and filling and not that expensive compared to other restaurants in the area. Also highly recommended their Thai iced coffee, so delicious and refreshing, just what I needed. Definitely visiting again. 😍
