we found this place randomly walking around and happen to come in right when they opened. i’m a really picky eater and i loved everything we got so much. it tasted so fresh and the food came really hot. the pork gyoza is said to be their most popular item and.. makes sense because it was delicious wow. the service was so lovely and they made sure to ask us about allergies and if we liked the food and drink. would definitely recommend coming in.

Decent food. Requested my drunken noodles to be spicy, but was instead given a non-spicy dish with a side of chili flakes and sambal - not really what I expect. Also, I found the rule card they provide at each table, along with the rules themselves, to be amusing and unnecessary.

If I ever go back, I will deliver them my own rule card. “Diner expects dishes to be seasoned to their specifications.”

This was a lovely place to eat with good appetizers and mains and great service. I only give it a 4 stars because some of the mains lacked the flavors I wished to see.

I like that the thai tea isnt too milky, they were delicious. The shumai and gyoza were very good. We tried a number of the mains- the spicy fried rice, the “fat kid at heart”, drunken noodles, etc. I wish my noodle dish was a bit more flavorful and the drunken noodles were not spicy, which is unusual as its a spicy dish. I think they should at least offer the option to make it spicier. However, everything tasted fresh and I appreciated some of the authenticity.

The staff were accommodating and the guy serving us (wish i caught his name) was cheerful and helpful. We sat outside and its perfect on a nice day.

During a recent business trip to Boston, my wife and I were in search of a restaurant offering Asian cuisine for dinner. Although our reservation was for 7:30 PM, we arrived early at 6:15 PM and were pleasantly surprised when the staff graciously accommodated us with a table for two ahead of schedule. The atmosphere was inviting, and the staff were exceptionally friendly, making for a comfortable dining experience.

For our meal, we started with the Crab Rangoon appetizer, followed by Bun Thom Thit and A Fat Kid At Heart as our main courses. The Crab Rangoon was quite rich, making it an ideal sharing dish for a group of 3 or 4. For smaller parties, the appetizer might be a bit too indulgent. While the main courses were not extraordinary, they offered a delightful fusion of Asian flavors adapted to Western tastes. This makes the restaurant an excellent choice for those looking to experience Asian cuisine with an American twist.

Although I am not a local and may not have the opportunity to return, I was impressed by both the food and the hospitality. The restaurant appears to be gaining popularity, as evidenced by the crowd waiting outside during our meal. I would highly recommend making a reservation in advance.

I wish i had a photo to post to show how amazing my meal looked but the food was too good to be able to have the chance to. This was first time at this place and I went with friends. Not only was the food absolutely phenomenal, the staff was really nice and attentive. The food genuinely tasted so well made and fresh that we all couldn’t go a couple bites without saying how delicious it was. I just moved to the area and I’m already planning on bringing family members and friends to this spot so they can experience what I did while dining here. I genuinely applaud the front of house staff and kitchen staff for the meal i enjoyed and the experience that I had. Very well done, cannot wait to go again in the future.

Decent food, but it felt quite pricey. Some of the portions were much, much larger than others. If you want the mango sticky rice, make sure to reserve it in advance because they make a limited number each day!

Reviewing based on lunch offerings (since dinner menu is very different and has more variety but I haven't tried them yet)

Aesthetics is nice, the staff is helpful, and food comes out quick. However I think the food itself is average. It probably doesn't help that the expectations that was set by the menu (not many choices and you must pick a dish and appetizer or get charged $10) and the hype surrounding the place sets a bar that this place is special or "fancier" than the normal southeast Asian restaurant.

It advertises itself as a fusion between Thai, Vietnamese, and Chinese, but it feels like a compromise of all three. The ingredients of the dishes are comprised of things that you can find in the US normally (for ex. Thai green curry could have had the thai round eggplants instead of Chinese eggplant, etc.) And on the subject of the number of ingredients, the chive fried dough barely had any chives (like countable on one hand for each triangle piece).

The taste of the food isn't bad, but the one main thing that stands out is how sweet everything is, without much spice. I'm not here to judge things based on "authenticity" only; it just feels like the dish didn't come together well in general for what it is.

Overall, I just don't think that there's anything that sets the food itself apart from other restaurants at least for how the lunch menu is structured.

We recently had dinner at this restaurant, and it was a very disappointing experience. My wife had just had surgery and didn’t have much of an appetite, so we decided to share a dish (Drunken Noodles, ~$20) to avoid wasting food. The server, however, told us that everyone has to order their own dish. This rule wasn’t mentioned anywhere and felt very abnormal. We even tried to explain my wife’s situation and offered to leave a larger tip, but the server refused and insisted on the policy without any flexibility.

In an effort to avoid further conflict, my wife reluctantly ordered a soup. Then, before we even finished eating, the server came over and took our plates, rushing us out. Their rude attitude made the whole experience even worse.

What made it more frustrating was that several nearby tables were only sharing a small snack, which left us feeling singled out.

We reserve the right to pursue legal action, as this situation felt like outright fraud. We’ve retained the necessary evidence, including recordings, photos, and the receipt. We won’t be returning and would advise others to be cautious when dining here.

位於Cambridge Main Street 上的亞洲餐廳，有麵有飯，有泰式咖喱、越南河粉等。這次點了雞肉河粉（Pho Ga)，可以選擇米線或是雞蛋麵，湯頭清甜，雞肉比較硬，整體餐點，但餐點份量較少，價格較貴。
中午二訪點了牛肉泰式炒河粉（Beef Pad Thai)，河粉有彈性，味道甜味較多，甜中帶鹹，牛肉搭配炒河粉，鹹甜好吃。
中午時段三訪點了印尼炒飯，大火快炒的炒飯鹹香好吃，搭配炸雞和彈牙的鮮蝦，非常好吃
An Asian restaurant located on Cambridge Main Street, offering noodles, rice, Thai curry, Vietnamese Pho, etc. This time I ordered chicken Pho Ga. You can choose rice noodles or egg noodles. The soup is sweet and the chicken is hard. The overall meal is small, but the price is relatively expensive.

I ordered Beef Pad Thai for lunch. The rice noodles are elastic and have a sweet taste, with a hint of salty sweetness. The beef is paired with the fried rice noodles, which is salty and sweet.

At noon, we ordered Indonesian fried rice for the third time. The fried rice was fried quickly and was salty and delicious. It was paired with fried chicken and springy shrimps. It was very delicious.

Great pork noodle soup, gluten free marked and entire meal was delicious

Best Pad Khee Mao (drunken noodles) I've had, and the crispy chicken is a must

Not variety of options for vegetarian people, but my non veg friends loved their foods! The fried rice is just average.

Editing after been here tens of times, this is my favorite Thai place around. Their thai tea- oh wow, super. Khao soi and drunken noodles are my favorite. Fried rice is my go-to option for Thai cuisine, and theirs isn't just as good as their other items mentioned above.

They make you wait until the full group has arrived, so prep if you don't want to wait in the cold.

Decent food. Requested my drunken noodles to be spicy, but was instead given a non-spicy dish with a side of chili flakes and sambal - not really what I expect. Also, I found the rule card they provide at each table, along with the rules themselves, to be amusing and unnecessary.

Great little spot with fantastic food. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Was relatively quick which I consider a plus. Got in and out in 30 minutes.

If you're ever in Cambridge, you must stop by this place. The food is phenomenal and the service is even better. The standout dish for me is crab rangoon, the best I've ever had.

I wish i had a photo to post to show how amazing my meal looked but the food was too good to be able to have the chance to. This was first time at this place and I went with friends.

Used to be good, but the food has gone downhill in past months

Food was okay, but the water tasted like soap, and I did not feel good afterwards

Pricey

food is below average and overpriced

The management wouldn’t allow me and a colleague to get separate checks for a company meal reimbursement. To be helpful I suggested to do a to go order separately. I was then told I couldn’t eat onsite so we wouldn’t be able to have lunch together. This isn’t a reasonable policy and horrible customer service. Don’t done with them!

Recommend at the highest level. Very friendly employees, consistently fantastic food, decent prices…. give them a try!

One of my favorite restaurants in all of Boston/Cambridge. The short rib khao soi MIGHT be the best dish in the entire state, it is absolutely perfect. Great beer selection with affordable prices. The staff is always friendly, and the owners are so incredibly sweet. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

The desk and seats weren’t clean and there were curry on them. Pad Thai was too sweet also. Service was ok but not very good, but they require a mandatory 20% tip.

Wonderful casual Asian fusion, service was excellent and good was tasty and fresh

So top notch in every way. A true community staple that is managed with so much intentionality.

Solid small Thai menu.

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, but the Orange Chicken did not have ANY flavor and was a soggy mess. I would not recommend this place based on its food. (I got takeout but I ate it within 4 minutes of my order exiting the kitchen)

Decent food, but it felt quite pricey. Some of the portions were much, much larger than others. If you want the mango sticky rice, make sure to reserve it in advance because they make a limited number each day!

Original street noodle is a must try

The food is extremely sweet...I should have paid attention to other reviews calling this out.

Tom kha gai soup was way too sweet - tasted like a sweet tea and didn't have the other subtle flavors (or were masked by the sugar) - I couldn't take more than a few sips :( . I did takeout otherwise if I was dining in, I would have returned it.

The fried chicken dish (Pad Krapow) was better... It is supposed to be medium spicy, but it was sweet and medium spicy but otherwise flavors were good.

Super welcoming staff that we're very accommodating. The food was great and for the price had a large serving. Would recommend!

The food is very good, plenty of parking, good location

Incredible food in a low key unpretentious restaurant. Kind and helpful staff. Great drink specials with solid beer and wine selection. 10/10 will be back.

So delicious! Amazing food and great service.

the waiters were so kind and service was amazing! food was good, would recommend and make sure to get a reservation

Very East South Asian Food!
We can taste Shoyu, soy sautéed taste.
This is good for Japanese.

Feel like something's changed in the past year or so. The food doesn't seem as cared for and has lost some of it's charm. not sure if just a bad day or if the chef has changed but other way feeling a little sad. still tasty but not the WOW it was before

Great lunch spot. Indonesian Fried Rice was great - tasted almost like they do it in Indonesia. Their website says they charge a 50 dollar fee for any reservation where the customer doesn't show up - which just feels like the management's frustration spilling out into public unnecessarily.

We had Indonesian Fried Rice and Pad Khee Mao. Both were really good! I’ll come back to try other foods in the menu and have Indonesian Fried Rice again!

The menu will bring back memories. Of Asian night markets .with an eclectic atmosphere.. or a road side cafe !!
Which if you have been to Asia some will blow your palate to another world of flavor !
I was lucky to stumble upon this gem!
Service was some of the best I have seen in years .
With informative staff .
I was lost in memory with the drucken noddle with chicken .. with a fried egg .
I did take out but I highly recommend afternoon tea and snacks or Cocktails with your evening meal!

If I worked this area more frequently I would become a regular!

Thank you for feeding my soul today !

And as person who’s First trade was culinary.
I am pretty picky .cause food is to nourish ,share and experience. With other beings !

Food is delicious, wait staff is incredibly welcoming, and the experience was super homey and comfortable at all times!

Great food, spicy on demand!!!

Mae Asian Eatery is my favorite restaurant in the Boston area. It is one of the only restaurants that I continue to come back to over and over again. The staff is incredibly friendly and cool, and the food is so flavorful, delicious and authentically Thai. So grateful for this restaurant and the warm environment and great food that it provides! I have had most of the menu items and I recommend literally every single one of them. I have not had a meal that I don’t like from Mae Asian Eatery!

Excelente comida. Excelente atención.
Hay unas muy buenas opciones de comida asiática.
Hay mesas al aire libre y la sazón de la comida super deliciosa.

American style Asian food but executed soooo well!

Great neighborhood place, tasty food and great service. Now they take reservations on Resy!

Service was excellent, got the Indonesian fried rice which was also excellent.

Good service. Great food. Nice staff.

Best Krapow I have had.

Best drunken noodle with fried chicken! Friendly staff and fast service!

I’m sharing the experience I’ve had just making the reservation and being unable to cancel it despite calling in multiple times and they charged me $40. I had to give my credit card details so I was planning to actually show up. Had to cancel last minute due to unforeseen circumstances and there was no way to cancel!!! No one answered my calls and no online method either. I’ll never ever plan to come eat here nor will I recommend this place to anyone I know given the poor quality of customer service.

It’s not a “eatery” as google coined it. Presented like a small cosy restaurant, it brings on the image of a family diner in SEA but the pricey menu definitely does not reflect that. More like a restaurant with upsell of every entree.

It’ll could be an intimate lovely dinner spot or good you are on business per diem but not for your typical family dinner with kids.
I was not expecting take out Panda Express prices but I also didn’t expect to have to order rice separately with every main course. By the time you add the rice (unless you are keto, who would eat a stir fry or curry without rice/ bread?) and the protein, you are paying more than $20 per entree.

Indonesia fried rice (nasi goreng) has the wok hei and is flavorful. But I can get the same for less $ in the Asian restaurant right across the street with tasteful decor and larger serving.

Mango curry was alright. Feels like they just added mango pieces to a curry dish . Our friends had some gyoza 🥟 which is tasty but nothing special and they didn’t think their dishes were anything extraordinary either.

The cheapest main course we had in the group was a “street noodle” dish but the portion also corresponded to the price.

Beer was $6? and up.

Then, they slapped a 20% mandatory gratuity on our bill (group of 6).

Hospitality is good staff were nice.
Although because half our group arrived 15 min later, they wouldn’t offer seating to the ones who arrived first (probably because they are small and couldn’t afford the capacity). So it’s not a place you want to relax and be seated and hang out with drinks…

Food was also extremely slow. We sat down around 7.30pm. All our 6 orders finally trickled in at 8.35/8.40pm. Our friend’s dish which arrived first was all cold by the time the last person’s food was was the table.

We won’t go back because it’s way overpriced and overrated.

Just had original street noodles. They’re bad. Threw out half way thru

Really cute Thai restaurant. The servers and manager were great. Really friendly and knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. Beware their spice is real SPICE. Take it from a Caribbean. Food is very tasty.

During a recent business trip to Boston, my wife and I were in search of a restaurant offering Asian cuisine for dinner.

Good food with very hospitable staff

Lovely out of the box menu. The spicy items are legitimately spicy - I really enjoyed it.

Food was fantastic! I had Panang Curry with chicken, and despite the generous portion, I was happy right through the last bite.
My wife had Cashew Gai Krob, and thought it was very good (that is her form of high praise) but did think it a bit salty. She also liked the sticky rice.
Service was great. Very welcoming and attentive. Restaurant is a pleasant, casual vibe, bright with upbeat music. Lively, happy crowd. Recommended.

Amazing place, delicious food and great service. So reasonably priced too, I couldn’t believe it! Crab Rangoon was out of this world, as well as the pineapple rice. I’ll be back!

Incredible food from a bunch of Asian countries and in different styles. Attentive service and a nice, clean environment. And the food was amazing. The food was so good.

Amazing food, nice variety and very flavorful! Great service as well 😊

The food was incredible and the staff was so nice. They went above and beyond to find us after we had left and had accidentally left a take out container and then returned to find us on the street when he discovered a phone was left too. So thoughtful and we were all so greatful!

Got the house fried rice and noodles. Didn't like either of them...

Delicious food and some of the nicest servers ive ever met!

Ordered takeout but was pleasantly surprised by the interior, would love to come again for sit down dinner. Chinese sausage fried rice may be one of the best fried rice dishes I've ever had, pork belly with broccoli (fat kid at heart is the name) was spicy and garlicky, and appetizers were all great! I'm sure this place will become a mainstay; the staff were super polite when I came in, the order was timely and even slightly ahead of schedule. Loved it all!

Edit: Finally got to try in person, staff and the owner were so welcoming and friendly, it's a small and intimate space but the food is delicious - siu mai, spicy calamari, pork belly with bamboo shoots, and Chinese sausage fried rice were huge hits (again)

I got the ma po tofu (mild spice). It tasted pretty good and the portion size was reasonable, but even the mild spice was a bit too spicy for me. There wasn't a lower spice option.

I love this place. this is my favorite asian restaurant in all of Cambridge. The people are so nice and you cannot go wrong with any of the dishes.

Relaxed, cozy environment, great service, solid food

If you have not been here yet, don’t wait! The food is excellent, quite authentic and such a delight. The restaurant is run by a wonderful couple, she’s the chef, and he runs the front of the house. Every single dish here I’ve gotten was tasty. Can’t recommend it enough. It’s great for dining, and they have outdoor seating as well.

Always crowded at lunch in the small dining area, but for good reason! All the lunch items are tasty and filling portions.

The thing I will say about this place is that they care about the food and about the customer experience. Food menu is well thought out and they take pride in their delivery. Great service, friendly people. Decent wine and beer selection.

Kind service, authentic food and epic taste
A must have Asian food when in Cambridge

Good place for lunch--tasty

Great eclectic Asian food and quick service. Highly recommend!

The tomyum soup was kinda plain, I ordered take out and was taken aback by how stingy they were on the ingredients.

The food is delicious. It's a cozy little place, warm and inviting with great service.

Delicious Thai. Great service. Really enjoyed it. Better than mostThai places in New York City.

Good Thai food! One of the best Tom Yum Soups in Cambridge, great drunken noodles and Khao Soi

D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S! 👌🏻 Highly recommend the Duck Noodle Soup.

アジア料理のレストランです。物価高のは避けられませんが、その点をすれば安定して美味しい料理を食べることができます。

Nice authentic Asian food. Tried thai pad noodles and drunken noodles both taste yum. Visited multiple times there and the restaurant never disappoints.

We got delivery from here last night and it was incredible. Everything is what you expect but elevated - you can tell the dishes are cooked with care and good ingredients. They also followed my request I added (to remove an ingredient) and they did and noted it on the container itself! Everything was above and beyond. My only complaint is that we didn't find this place sooner.

Still one of my favorite restaurants in Cambridge. Food is spectacular and consistent. The owners are so friendly and accommodating. Even though we don't live nearby anymore, we still make an effort to bring our out-of-town friends and family to this local joint. They also sell alcohol now too!

Good food

Very cozy, friendly. The Pineapple Fried Rice was amazing. The Banana Spring roll for dessert is a must look try. 10/10.

Great small restaurant. Quick to ask about and make substitutions for food preferences or allergies. The owner took our order, his wife is the chef. Try the Kah Moo small plate. The fried coconut fritters in it are amazing and like nothing I’ve ever tried before and they are from the chef’s hometown.

Phenomenal food, great service and ambient. They really put a lot of love into this place. Family owned.

Small portions of basic taste for an exorbitant price. That includes the drunken noodle everyone seems to be raving about. We did take-out though. I mean, maybe it's so mind-blowing inside that anything will start tasting good? I wouldn't know because the one time we actually decided to dine in, it was a Sunday and they were closed. What is this, Chick-fil-A?

Nomal..

Just moved to the area so wanted to try a local spot. Food was ready in 15 minutes, and absolutely fantastic. Got the pork gyoza and pad thai with crispy chicken. Spicy, hot and delicious!!

The Cashew Gai Krob was excellent. Crispy chicken is fairly heavily breaded so keep that in mind. But done well. Crispy Pad Thai Noodles was mild with tons of bean sprouts. Tasty but if you like spicy look elsewhere on the menu.

Food is good and service even better!

Best Crab Rangoons you’ll ever have 🤤

I come here all the time for their consistently delicious food and warm hospitality. My favorite restaurant in the area!

The service was friendly and fast. The menu had interesting foods that I hadn't tried before, such as a coconut fritter that was very good. Note that they have a table time limit of 60 minutes for 1-3 people and 90 minutes for 4+ people since it is a small restaurant with limited seating. We didn't stay longer than those ranges though, so I'm not sure if they're enforced.

Amazing Thai food. Owner is lovely. A must try for lunch. Value and taste spot on.

What a great place! The chef creates Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai dishes based on her mother's recipes (Mae means "mother" in Thai). The interior is lovely, as were the staff, and the food was delicious. I got A Fat Kid at Heart, a pork belly dish, and highly recommend.

SO the food is delicious and the people are VERY nice but the portions are a little small I paid 16 bucks for this plate with a handsome amount of broccoli and literally like 9/10 small pieces of chicken im sad i got home and opened it to see this. Again delicious but not too happy about the portion for the money BUT i would return NO DOUBT.

Ok place

Highly recommend this place. The service is quick, the food is fresh and the staff is very friendly. The restaurant can accommodate their plates to certain allergies if requested.

I ordered lunch at 12:07 and maybe they’ll deliver at 12:55 maybe. I think the problem was I ordered iced coffee and that took like an extra 25 minutes to make or something. I hope it’s good better not be in a hurry if you need this place.

Loved their noodles. I was craving on Asian food because I had only western cuisine for a few days. Found this spot by walking around MIT. I didn't expect much but the food was great and the customer service was super good.
Try this spot out!

The hallmark of good Chinese food to me, is food that isn't too greasy, with light, well-balanced flavors. This restaurant hits all the marks for me. I ordered the Chinese fried rice with sausage and my two friends shamelessly stole maybe a third of it from my plate. They also have a wonderful way of frying an egg over easy so that the outsides are crispy and the whole thing puffs up.

Excellent food, more MIT students should come here. Service was great as well! Very clean and great vibes inside too. Support small businesses like this!

Delicious. Had the Kua Kling Gai and it was fantastic. The service and cocktails were great as well.

Delicious food, friendly staff, inviting atmosphere! I ordered the Spicy Calamari as an appetizer (spicy mayo was incredible) and the Duck Noodle Soup as my entree. The noodle soup was so flavorful. Wow it really hit the spot. Can't wait to come here again!

Kind owner and great value food!! Food is prepared quickly. Many is diverse. Prime location!!

Best Thai food I’ve ever had! My husband and I went to the Mae’s for dinner for our babymoon over the weekend. We were so impressed with the husband wife team of owners and their attention to detail from the over the top service to the obvious care they put into selecting the ingredients to their dishes.
I had the GRASS FED beef, drunken noodles and my husband had the 12 HOUR BRAISED SHORT RIB Khao Soi. Both were amazing.
We highly recommend Mae’s and will definitely be back!

We have been coming to Mae for several years. To be honest, the quality of the food is really good! However, for some reason, the portions of several dishes we tried recently ended up being very small. Specifically, I ordered their singaporean noodles special with pork and shrimp. It came with 2 small pieces of pork and 2 shrimps. It was ridiculous. Same with my wife's dish. We left Mae hungry after dinner. Will not be returning unless the portion sizes and quality are both worth it. This is not what you expect for a thai restaurant which is on the expensive side ($16 a dish).

My wife and I visited once and enjoyed it so much that we’ve gone three weeks in a row.

Food is so good. The owners are really caring. We love there food so much they even catered for our gender reveal party. They are awesome and always good is good. Thank you.

Horrible, sick , bad food & mice

Have come here multiple times and have never been disappointed. Everything on the menu is great!

Food very tasty and service is fabulous.
We ordered the drunken noodles with beef. They source grass fed beef from New Zealand and you can tell the difference in quality in the first bite.
We also ordered the pad krapow Gai, a ground chicken dish with bell peppers and onions that’s in a sweet and spicy sauce.
Both lunch entrees came with a side; we chose the chicken Tom yum soup and the fried chive dough pancakes. Both were amazing.

Everything we ordered was amazing.
The ambiance of the restaurant is great and we are excited to come back and try the dinner menu.

Would definitely recommend Mae Asian Eatery to everyone!

God, this place is good! Try anything and you wont be disappointed. Khao Soi is real special. More of a curry than a soup, but it WORKS!

Some of the best and thoughtfully made Asian food I’ve ever had. Mae is a gem and have never gone wrong with any of the dishes I’ve ordered from here. Esp the Khao Suey and Nasi Goreng are to die for!

Great pad thai. A little overpriced, or maybe that's just inflation.

I judge all Thai restaurants based on their pad Thai... now I'm no expert, but Mae's pad Thai is the most different and delicious I've ever had. It's much more savory than what you'd expect, and mildly spicy at baseline! Also i picked it up at least 15-20min late and it was still warm enough for me to enjoy it. Will definitely return again!

Update: I ordered the pad thai for takeout again, but this time i picked tofu... it was lacking flavor. I think the crispy chicken sauce was the hidden special flavor in my review above!

I highly recommend this restaurant. You should especially try drunken noodles.

Always great food and friendly staff. Lunch special portion is a little big, but so good you finish it all anyways

Great food, muy authentico

An unassuming gem, Mae Asian Eatery is our new go-to for Thai food in Central. You'll be greeted by the owners with smiles on their faces and they'll care for you like you're eating at their own home.

Very delicious!! The crispy pork and short ribs were to die for! Will go again 😁

I Prefer Italian BagelS and German Sausage together with sunny side up eggs over ez

Super tasty and cute little spot with many gluten free options for those who need it!

Fantastic restaurant in Cambridge, great food, even better service. Highly recommended!

Pretty surprised it was getting such good reviews. Went with a few friends who wanted to try it and the food was in general very mediocre. Service was good, if not slightly overbearing. The Pad Thai was very bland and dry, and for some reason the peanuts were off to the side and the green onion we not chopped up. Friends thought it was pretty mediocre as well although my friend’s green curry was actually pretty good.
