I was honestly skeptical, but the food was amazing, the restaurant was clean and friendly staff! Would absolutely recommend.

Diner Review №5

There was mold in my sticky rice order!! So dangerous and disgusting.

Diner Review №6

Diner Review №7

Needed a self love meal and this hit the spot. The Drunken noodles are the best I've ever had! The restaurant is little cozy but amazing cuisine!

Diner Review №8

The food is fantastic and the service is prompt!

Diner Review №9

We do love this place, but today they shorted our delivery a side of rice and made my wife's food spicy when she wanted no spice.

Diner Review №10

The rice was not rice. It was more like mash potatoes.

Diner Review №11

Diner Review №12

Diner Review №13

Poor experience, really long wait time they forgot my order multiple times and did not apologize

Diner Review №14

Diner Review №15

Food was delicious, service was fast and friendly. Very small place, seating is limited but seems very popular. We came for lunch at opening time, thankfully we were the first people there, the tables filled up quickly.

Diner Review №16

I ordered pad Thai. The noodles were undercooked. My partner ordered something else, can't remember what. She said vegetables were not cooked enough. It was like eating raw vegetables. The beef was tasteless and rubbery

Diner Review №17

Having spent some years in the PNW where great Asian food is plenty (especially Thai and Vietnamese), always a bit skeptical about some of the choices in ABQ…This place is DELICIOUS! Had the green curry with chicken, and it was absolutely spot on. Great balance of flavor, wonderful spice and heat, along with great portion sizes. So happy to have this place around the corner from me! If you want great curries, get here as fast as you can.

Diner Review №18

Great food!!!! Will go again!

Diner Review №19

This is an awful, dirty restaurant. I’ve tried it twice now, about a year apart, in hopes that the first time was just a bad night for them. It was not.

The restaurant is open seating, but there are no signs telling patrons this, so people will come in and stand around, like we did, until the single server notices them and tells them they can grab a seat anywhere.

There are six tables that seat four people and one table that seats two. There are also four barstools along the bar for a total of thirty seats. There are no stairs into the venue so patrons in wheelchairs or with mobility issues will be fine accessibility-wise.

The menus were sticky, the tables were sticky, our glasses were dirty with lipstick that hadn’t been fully washed off, and the place had an overall grimy feel.

I had the yellow curry fried rice, which was somehow both sour and extremely bland. The curry spice was what tasted sour; I haven’t had any like it before and was thinking perhaps the spice went bad. The entree as a whole was very unappetizing. My companion ordered the pineapple fried rice and said he’d give his 1 star because it was extremely bland as well. The sodas we ordered were passed to us in a can with a cup of ice.

The restaurant had one server for the dining room who was also in charge of busing the tables and coordinating to-go orders. He was friendly, but the owners had done a disservice by only having one staff up front, as he couldn’t keep the place clean.

Having tried this place twice, I’m confident in saying I wouldn’t go back.

Diner Review №20

great food at great prices!

Diner Review №21

Really rude staff.

Diner Review №22

Got pad see ew medium, and it was flavorful and the noodles had great texture. Not overloaded with sauce. The veggies were perfectly cooked, crisp and not soggy. The spice level was perfect for medium, but I think I would do spicy next time.

Diner Review №23

My waitress, who has worked here for the past 7 years or so, is the most efficient waitress I've ever met! I ordered massaman Curry and Thai tea. The sauce in the curry was really good, although it was not as hot temperature wise as I would like, and the tofu was reheated and not freshly made. But other than that, good food!

Diner Review №24

Excellent food and so many options.

Diner Review №25

Stands out as the best Thai restaurant in Albuquerque. The food is authentic and bursting with flavor.

Diner Review №26

This has been my favorite Thai spot in town since I moved here in 2013. The food has always been delicious and the service was quick and to the point. I would highly recommend!

Diner Review №27

The food is good and all, but the waiting time is a disaster. I called in at 7:35pm and arrived at 8:20pm which they said it would take at most 20 minutes from my call......... I left the building at 8:49pm. I ask for my food at minute 39 of waiting in a polite way but being the third time this happens( not to this extent but at least 45 minutes) makes me feel diff about this place.

Ooh my food was cold btw.

Diner Review №28

One of the more premier quality Thai restaurants in a city brimming with Southwestern charm, this unassuming gem stands out for its authenticity and dedication to tradition. Tucked away along historic Route 66 in Albuquerque, this restaurant exudes an intimate, almost familial warmth, where every dish feels personal, crafted with care and a deep respect for heritage.

The space is cozy, offering an atmosphere that feels more like stepping into someone’s home than a typical eatery. Each dish is a reflection of the chef’s unwavering pride, from the intricate layering of flavors to the careful presentation. Every bite tells a story—of time-honored techniques and ingredients that have been lovingly perfected over decades.

During one visit, we had the pleasure of speaking with the head chef, a man whose passion for his craft is palpable. When we inquired about his Pad Thai recipe and how long it took to refine, he humbly smiled and said, “My whole life.” It was a response that resonated deeply, encapsulating not just the dish but the very spirit of the restaurant itself.

It’s no wonder we keep returning—this place is a rare find in a city known for its vibrant culinary scene. Every meal feels like a journey, and while the space is intimate, the flavors are anything but small. Simply put, it’s one of Albuquerque’s finest, and we’re grateful to have it in our regular rotation.

Absolutely stupendous every time

Diner Review №30

Visiting ABQ..this place was clean. Friendly staff.. and the food was on point. I had the drunk noodles.. it was made perfect. Mubwife had Pad Me. And she said was awesome.. deff. Worth visiting!

Diner Review №31

Diner Review №32

I've been eating here for years, and it's time to leave a review. My go-to Thai food spot in Abq. Food is always amazing here. They are more popular and busy now, but the service is still great.

Diner Review №33

Diner Review №34

The food is still affordable and very delicious! We love the food here!

Diner Review №35

Consistently excellent, best green papaya salad I’ve ever had, everything else is always delicious

Diner Review №36

Diner Review №37

We like to dine here or get take-out. It’s a traditional Thai menu, with options for vegans or vegetarians such as tofu instead of meat or shellfish. They do make a vegetable based broth that can be ordered for soup dishes. They also modify according to how spicy you want your food. As a vegan I found several excellent choices that were also low or no oil. One of my current favorites are the vegetable spring rolls and salads with papaya.

Diner Review №38

Diner Review №39

Excellent waiter and food at a decent price.

Diner Review №40

Diner Review №41

Can’t comment on the food, just the service. I walked in with my wife and 5 kids on a Tuesday afternoon, lots of empty tables and the waitress was not happy about it, we heard her complain to the kitchen staff about 5 kids. We told her we could go somewhere else if that was a problem and she rudely said “thank you.” Sounds like if you’re a college student you’ll be fine, but I’d avoid this place if you want to take kids or want friendly service.

Diner Review №42

Diner Review №43

Excellent! This is the best Thai food in Albuquerque. They have great lunch specials which include a soup, egg rolls, your meal, and a dessert a tapioca with coconut milk and fruit. They always have excellent service and refill drinks promptly. Good thing for those who order spicy plates. You can order food to go as well. I highly recommend this spot. Go early at lunch though if you want to grab a table as it does get fairly busy.

Update: still one of my favorites. Super consistent and tasty!

Diner Review №44

Everything made perfectly to order. Ready at Time given for the order to be ready very friendly. Good price and you can't walk away hungry but for your own fault, be prepared for big doggy bag
Probably the best Thai I've had anywhere.

Diner Review №45

We love this place and visit way too often. The food is good and the service is always great.

Excellent service , delicious food *****

Diner Review №48

Diner Review №49

Food was great!! I actually ordered for catering for UNM students and everyone that came to the event loved the food and wanted seconds. The worker on the phone was really sweet and provided solutions to random questions I had. 10/10 customer service.

Diner Review №50

Great little hole in the wall place. Food was great. I had take-out so only was able to gauge the guy helping me. I Tipped him because he was nice. The standard for customer service is super low these days when you find someone that is happy and smiles at you it makes your day nicer. Anyways if you're in town and need a go to Thai place this great.

Diner Review №51

Great food ! One of my favorite tiny gems of Albuquerque

Diner Review №52

Food is delicious but no mild curry options. Probably avoid if you have heartburn.

Diner Review №53

My only favorite Thai restaurant in Albuquerque. I love the restaurant vibes and have taken my friends out to eat here numerous times. I also get take out a lot and always satisfied with my order. Pineapple fried rice and tapioca dessert is great.

Diner Review №54

They have some very tasty Thai curries and if you like spicy they have it. The prices are decent considering with all the inflation happening everywhere else. Servers are friendly and it's a very casual atmosphere.

Diner Review №55

Used to get a lot of takeout here got takeout the other day we received the wrong order the parts of our order that we’re good we’re fantastic, but would not recommend takeout due to the low staffing at this time. Definitely recommend in.

Diner Review №56

This place is awesome! They have excellent food and the service is amazing. Noah is absolutely the best!

Diner Review №57

It's hard to find a really good Thai restaurant. Service was not at all very good. My server was a younger fellow who seemed to be more preoccupied on his phone rather than my service. I had to ask for water several times, condiments etc. not to mention my rice was gooey and overcooked. I had ordered the #97 with chicken and the veggies were super hard and hadn't been cooked thoroughly. This place sucked

Diner Review №58

One of my Favorite Restaurants for YEARS! Lots of Vegan options and incredible quality food. Only thing that's kinda weird, is they ask, "What Kind of Protein would you Like?" Referring to the Meat of an Animal. I'm educated and I've watched "What the Health," Documentary, so I Know that All Protein Actually Comes from Plants.

Freshly Rolls and Thai Tea are The BEST IN TOWN!!! I Highly Recommend this Diamond of a Place!!!

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

Great gluten free options. Woohoo!

Diner Review №61

The server was great. I ask her what was good and she recommended the Curry. The Curry was great.

My wife and I walked out of this place. We sat at the table and waited about ten minutes. There were only two other tables that were occupied so we can’t figure out why we didn’t get attended right away.

Two women arrived and they were serviced first. That was it. We walked out.

Diner Review №73

Started out alright, second set of people inside for lunch, rather empty and my colleague and I sat at a four top table to work about and eat before placing a to go order. We got our food and it got busier but placed an order to go for about an additional 8 people. While waiting for the to go food, the female server asked if we could get up and wait in the lobby so others could have our spot. We said, “sure” and tipped $30 on our $150 dollar tab (with most of it go to). Eventually the entire to go order was ready and absolutely no silverware, etc. I asked the server/host and she says, “I don’t know, maybe it’s in there”. Like seriously. We unbundle and look and nothing at all. Wait another 5 minutes before saying not there and she proceeds to point and say it’s over there, to get them! Keep in mind she just got a $30 dollar tip with most the order being to go. In shock I finally asked the guy cook/runner which eventually gets me a package of silverware in a bag to go. Sadly her tip should have been altered to $6 dollars. Nevertheless, I let the account know who suggested getting food from this restaurant about this correspondence, they were shocked and said they wouldn’t be going back or recommended anytime soon.

Diner Review №78

This place is great. I needed comfort food. They have the best comfort food. I especially love their pad se ew!

Diner Review №81

I had the pumpkin curry, very good mildly spicy. Our waiter was great! A little disappointed they didn't have coffee but other than that, it was a good experience

Diner Review №82

Best pad Thai in the city

Diner Review №83

First off, NOAH IS THE GREATEST!

I have been HORRIBLY remiss in leaving a review for this restaurant, which is our favorite in Albuquerque. The food is great and fresh, but what really makes the place is Noah, who is truly delightful.

Great beer selection, too!

We come here every time we are in ABQ, which is about 4 times a year, and we recommend it to any of our friends who are visiting the city.

The building is quaint and cozy and it's always clean. There is a small but convenient parking lot right around back and we've always been lucky to get a space. Lots of street parking, too.

Wish I could give it more stars!

Diner Review №84

Best Thai that I've had in town so far! They make their own noodles! Yummy!

Diner Review №92

Not bad

Diner Review №93

Diner Review №94

In my opinion it's one of the best places to get Thai in town. Their pad Thai with chicken and tofu is on point.

Diner Review №95

Diner Review №96

Delicious place for Thai food at a good price. Location is at a corner, parking is behind building. You can grab a menu and seat yourself, service was responsive and kind.

Diner Review №97

Great vegetarian options. Love the coconut soup.

Diner Review №98

Diner Review №99

Nice food.

Diner Review №100

Great panang curry, reasonable prices and fast friendly service.

Diner Review №101

Diner Review №102

My wife spotted this place because she is vegan and the waiter said they can make any dish vegan. She had the Pineapple Fried Rice that she she got without egg and light oil, she really liked it. I got the Teriyaki Fried Rice plus shrimp and it was very good with a large portion.
You can tell they have it in a bowl because it has that upside bowl shape (see my picture).
The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable!
I can easily recommend this place!
And they have take out and I am sure we will be using that service in the future!!

Diner Review №103

Diner Review №104

Seafood Tom Yum came with bunch of cabbage and tomatoes 1 shrimp, asked for lemons and dried chili and it was not in the pick up order, the girl in the front refuse to give me her name and hanged the phone on me. Never going to this place poor quality of food, poor service

Diner Review №105

Love the food here. Always tastes great and lots of it

Diner Review №106

Lovely food. Delicious peanut sauce.

Diner Review №107

Gave a cash tip with our card payment for service. Was brought back the card/receipt to sign where we were then informed of an automatic gratuity that couldn't be removed. An automatic gratuity should have been mentioned from the moment we sat down, and at the very least been mentioned when we tried to offer the cash. Terribly disappointing for a place with quality food.

Diner Review №108

Delicious 😋! I love it!

Diner Review №109

Diner Review №110

One of the worst restaurant I’ve experienced. Specially the bald waiter who have very cheap attitude. Highly NOT RECOMMENDABLE to go.

Diner Review №111

I had pad Thai here twice, first time was perfect second time it was incredibly sweet and watery. Not consistent enough.

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

This is one of my favorite places to eat when I am in Albuquerque. They have great Gluten free food and their service is wonderful! Whenever I get a chance I stop in! I highly recommend it!

Diner Review №114

Used to be my favorite Thai restaurant by far but things have changed lately. Service has been poor and often rude for a while, and it was okay with me because the food was so damn good. Now the food had taken a turn for the worst and it’s hard to stomach. the past 4 or 5 times I’ve had it just haven’t been the same. Still decent food but not worth putting up with the poor service.

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

So glad we stumbled upon this place. The curry was insanely good, as were the drunken noodles. And the lunch special made it such a great deal!

Diner Review №117

Diner Review №118

Excellent service from the staff great very delicious food is the first i went i give 10 stars definitely i will return thank you for a very profesional service.

Diner Review №119

Not only I had a lot of DIARRHEA after eating here, the OWNER of the store was very rude, and his excuse for being rude was due to being very busy. If you are that busy every single day, maybe conside getting more employees or simply don't take any more orders over the phone while your restaurant is full and you only have ONE college kid doing everything. Being too busy is not an excuse to abuse everyone.

Also, charging extra here and there for things that you offer, as if they were an option, without a warning, is a bit petty. For example, asking the spicy level of your order but charging for hot sauce when asked to be on the side.

The owner had a strange demeanor, not of a busy successful businessman, but someone with some psych issues.

I saw a customer complain (I was next to the owner) and I clearly heard him say "That's because YOU ARE SO B1TC#Y," right at her face. I was shocked. Later the owner claimed that he said that they were "busy," of course he lied. How can you claim that "you" sounds like "we?" I was next to him, I heard him very clearly.

The owner is not one of those newcomers, hard working immigrants, he is fluent in English and even has the audacity to talk trash about Albuquerque and Central Ave (when it was his choice to be there). He even knows how to manipulate and twist people's words to try to win arguments, arguments with customers that are GIVING HIM MONEY. I couldn't believe my eyes and how CUNNING he was to customers.

To the owner: you try to pull a KEN on the customers that give you money. I mean, we give you a chance to conduct a business here, and you talk and treat people that give you MONEY this way? Also your food is not all that, I had better in Abq!

There are tons of other great restaurants out there that truly deserve our business. You, no thanks!

Diner Review №122

Nasty food with inconsistent spice levels

Diner Review №123

This was extremely disappointing, given the reviews and reputation of this restaurant. The curry was incredibly watered down, and had basically no spice despite ordering it hot. The crab fried rice was overly fishy (even for someone who loves seafood - they described it as "what fish food smells like"), and despite ordering with the lowest spice level, there was a surprise pile of crushed red pepper in a corner. We got the mango sticky rice as well, and it was underwhelming if I'm being generous. The thai iced tea was the best thing I had, and even then, I almost wish they just gave me a can. Also, everything was packaged in containers that leaked all over the place. I only gave 2 stars because it was, objectively, edible.

I hope it was just an off night, but I don't think I'll be back.

Diner Review №124

This place is great for a quick and delicious meal w plenty of flavor! The lunch special is awesome for $10.78!!

Diner Review №125

Fantastic!!! I Enjoyed it for my first visit. I will return to try all the menu items , in time.
I will keep everyone posted.

Diner Review №126

One of our favorites for takeout. Ordered online this time which worked out great! #14 soup is fresh and delicious. The Chicken Green Curry is subtly sweet and spicy at the same time. Yum!. Don't dine in unless you're ok with a tiny space. Sometimes there's a wait for takeout but it's worth it.

Diner Review №127

Small restaurant with great food and service.

Diner Review №128

took me about 30 minutes of being on and off hold to get a pickup order in. when i picked my order up 30 minutes later, it was the wrong type of curry, and very mediocre. they simply did not answer the phone after that.

Diner Review №129

We stopped at this small restaurant on our way back from Vegas on a Saturday evening. This cozy restaurant left the best impressions. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. A large menu that can be altered to fit your tastes. The service was fantastic. The delicious dishes were not only beautiful in presentation but tasted amazing. We had the Pineapple Fried Rice with Chicken and Pad Thai. I wish I had more room to try other dishes. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you received. This was by far the best meal we ate on our trip. I would 100% recommend this place and would come here often if I lived in the area.

Diner Review №130

Diner Review №131

Horrible service. Waited 15 minutes to receive a water and be greeted. Once we got the water, I said we were ready to order and the server said, “I’ll be right back to take it.” And then 10 minutes flew by and he went to another table (that came in AFTER us) and took their order.

We decided to order it online and do take out, so we waited in the car and it took 30 minutes beyond the time it stated. He proceeded to give attitude and question why we ordered online instead of waiting all evening for him. This was our first and last experience here.

Diner Review №132

Diner Review №133

Was delicious, highly recommend. Lunch portion was perfect size and well priced.

Diner Review №134

Been coming here for years and the food is always solid.Always get the yum nua and it’s always delicious. Albuquerque staple for sure.

Diner Review №135

We love Thai Food. First time trying This place and was very disappointed. The food was very dry and not tasteful, actually had a unpleasant taste as well. Very poor customer service to top it off when we went in to pick up and pay. I hope it was just an off night for them but we won’t be back unfortunately.

Diner Review №136

Delicious!

Diner Review №137

Unfortunately- I sat and waited for the ability to place an order… but was basically ignored … told I would be waited on eventually…

I usually love this place but I don’t think I’ll be coming back until the wait staff changes.

I did not wait around to place an order after 15 minutes. Maybe they need to hire another waiter?

Diner Review №138

Diner Review №139

Great food for the price, very generous portions and the service was both interactive and kind. Laid back atmosphere great for a quick bite to eat or a date.

Diner Review №140

Great place!

Diner Review №141

Good food for a good price. One star lost for rude server/front desk person (guy with the gauged ears, possibly the same person as the "little kid at the front" referred to below).

Details: I ordered on Selflane and arrived exactly at the estimated time that the food would be ready. The food was not quite ready when I arrived -understandable as they were busy. The server said "let me check back in the kitchen to see how much longer it would be". Perfect. I took a seat and waited for >10 min. The server walked by me multiple times, never providing that update. Finally I asked "Do you have any further update on the progress". His reply "I don't know 5 maybe 10 minutes. I don't work in the kitchen and that's not my responsibility". Then he walked away. I didn't understand the reason for the attitude and the snark. Anyway, the food came out about 30 seconds later and was great!

Diner Review №142

OMG 😳. I haven’t had chicken pad Thai in 30 years and this is close to my house. It was fabulous.

Diner Review №143

Diner Review №144

great food and nice out of the way location up Central

Diner Review №145

Great food at a good price.

Diner Review №146

Red Panang curry here is excellent.

Diner Review №147

Really great Thai.

Diner Review №148

Food was pretty blah & underwhelming, which was especially disappointing since we traveled from our little town so far away, very much missing tasty, textured Thai cuisine. Oh well, better luck next year.

Diner Review №149

So so food. My curry didn't have much flavor

Diner Review №150

Just walked out of this dump. Walked in, the little kid at the front told us to sit at any table. We sit down and browse the items on their menu. We wait….and wait….and wait…..and wait some more. Other patrons walked in after us and did the same thing. Mind you, there’s like 7 tables total in this place, so it’s super tiny. Anyways, we wait some more then decide to walk out as no one waited on us while we sat there. The little kid at the front had the audacity to say, “have a good night!”. Uhhhhh, the owners need to understand they’re losing customers. Unless this little kid is their son…..won’t be returning to this place.

Diner Review №151

Great tasting food with great service!

Diner Review №152

Great food at reasonable prices. Try the pot stickers!

Diner Review №153

Diner Review №154

We absolutely love this restaurant! The food is delicious! Deserves a 5 star every time! BUT...tonight our complaint is the young man serving! He gets 0 stars...maybe even negative stars. .He was utterly rude! We placed a pick up order. We live outside albuquerque and came into town to find out our rv didn't have power and asked if we could go ahead and eat in the restaurant. The server didn't offer utensils, plates or even something to drink! When I asked for utensils he didn't even make eye contact and rudely handed them to me. We didn't dare ask for drinks... like we wouldn't pay for them! He ignored us the whole time walking past us like we weren't even there!
The pick up order has an automatic tip and had we been offered drinks we would have had a bill to leave more for tip....but he was simply a "jerk"! We eat there frequently and honestly if he is ever our server again...well the automatic tip he got tonight will just have to suffice!!!

Diner Review №155

Had some of the best Pad See Ew I've ever had! Very delicious, fair pricing, prompt service - - I'm definitely coming back to this place again!

Diner Review №156

Top 3 Thai places I've been to! Prices were honest!

Diner Review №161

This is a delicious Thai place. The chilies have a nice earthy flavor. Everything was cooked really well and presented beautifully. I tried the pad Thai, and my partner tried the kao pad ga prow. Both were delicious. We found our new favorite Thai.

Diner Review №162

Food was good, the Pad Ped Ga Prow was better than the Pad Kee Mow. Spice levels were a little underwhelming.

Diner Review №163

You wouldn't expect a Thai place in an A-Frame to be so good, but it is. I've also never had to wait long for food here, which is an added bonus.

Diner Review №164

Not sure what happened here but decided to try this place since the Thai across the street was closed. Less than two hours after eating here i was violently ill. Would not recommend!

Diner Review №165

For the past 20 years I only ate Thai food from Siam Cafe, they have closed, I've tried different Thai food around albuq that just didn't do it for me until I found you. This food puts warm in my heart ❤️ and a smile on my face.

Diner Review №166

It's a great place, service is a little slow. Yet it gives the cook time to prepare each meal hot and fresh. A must try, you can order by doordash too!

Diner Review №167

Awesome Thai food!

Diner Review №168

This place is delicious. Unfortunately our favorite Thai restaurant closed down about a year ago, so we have been on the hunt for good traditional Pad Thai and some amazing Massaman curry. Well we found it! The only bad part, is it is just a little addicting... lol if you are looking for a good Thai place definitely check it out! Just be careful with the spice level when ordering, it can get a little hot 🔥🔥

Curry is excellent. Vegetables are fresh. Sauces are fantastic. They have a variety is "spicyness" to choose from, so everyone at the table is happy. Our server is always attentive and personable. A really nice neighborhood restaurant with terrific Asian food. Parking in the back.

Update: there is no longer the option to order online directly from them.
There's a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan options, and options for meat eaters too. The food is awesome!!! My favorite part about ordering from here is the convenience of ordering and paying online!

Service was very good, food was excellent. Quaint little place, not much to look at, but that's where you usually find the best food for your money. Will definitely go back.

The best Thai food I have in Albuquerque. The pad thai is delicious and plenty spicy. 10/10

Don't order "to go" from here.
It just becomes a pile of mush.
I ordered a fried rice Combination Plate, and saw only rice.. (see attached picture).

I've tried a variety of their foods and I've ordered to go there at least a handful of times. I've been eating more frequently lately also. The food is always fresh and taste delicious. Today was my first interaction with a cashier named Noah. He is a very charismatic, charming, pleasant person. Has an amazing energy! Highly recommended this place. The other girl that's usually a cashier is also very nice just kind of quiet.

Better for takeout. Ask a friend what they got before you dive into the deap end.

Still a great place but mild is rather weak for thai.

Diner Review №189

By far my favorite restaurant in town. Been coming here for years and I can never get enough of it. Glad to see they're staying busy.

The green curry was half eaten. I was just so hungry. It was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend.

Diner Review №192

The variety of options available is great compared to the usual thai restaurant. If you are a spice lover, this is the second best thai restaurant in town to try the "thai hot."

Solid Thai food. The dining space is small, but the staff is friendly. They offer a decent variety of Thai dishes to choose from. My party had Mussaman curry, Pineapple curry, and Pad Kee Mow. All were tasty. If you like the heat, make sure to choose Thai hot as your spice level. I would go here again, given the opportunity.

My all time favorite Thai restaurant! The food has flavor, just the right amount of Thai kick, and the serving is plentiful.

Diner Review №197

They get crazy busy usually but worth the wait , out of all the years going here we got overfried burnt wontons recently . However considering the staffing shortages and how busy they get they can get a pass for the other 99% of the time everything is perfect .
