This restaurant is a local Thai restaurant. I came in for some to go food a couple weeks ago. And then my visitor came in for some soup. And my husband wanted to try the restaurant on date night last week.Are used to go to my favorite restaurant in Pearl city, so I was kind of skeptical, but the food is really good.

Discovered this restaurant at the weekly Night Market in Wai Kai and I've heard really good things about the actual restaurant. Their food stand did not disappoint!!Got their house special plate, which comes with pad Thai, lemongrass fried chicken and a choice of curry. This will get you full and satisfied ASAP.

I was craving some Thai food but wanted to try a new restaurant. Food here was flavorful. We ordered the following: spring roll, papaya salad, drunken noodles, mussaman curry, and larb. All of them were prepared as expected except the mussaman curry. I'm used to a reddish curry color but it wasn't. It was so good. All the dishes we ordered were seasoned well. Service was good. We came on a Sunday for lunch and it was not busy at all. Decor was simple and place was clean. I would come here again and try their other dishes.

People kept talking about this place and I finally got to go here. I ordered my usual which is green curry with tofu. It was a lot more "home made" in terms of the vegetables that came with the curry. I like bamboo shoots and there were none in this. It's almost like they put in the leftover vegetables from some other dish. I thought it was ok, but I am not a Thai food expert so take what I say with a grain of salt. I liked the green curry from Bangkok chef, Siam Garden Cafe and Phuket Thai a lot better.

We were on our way back from Waianae Coast to Honolulu, but were hungry. We stopped in Kapolei area. This restaurant is across Safeway, Longs, McDonalds's strip mall. Actually, I was looking for Starbucks which was no longer there for lighter snack...but Thai Lao! I love Thai food! So my friend and parked in front...woo hoo!!!Inside, it was nice...lots of tables for a small place, one long table down the middle for a big party if need be. We took a side table for four people. Their menu was extensive, but I noticed right away...stuffed chicken wings! Last time I had that was 23 years ago at Chai's Keo when it was at Ward Centre. We ordered Panang Curry, Pad Thai noodles, Green Papaya Salad, rice, and Stuff Chicken Wings.Panang Curry - peanut nutty, coconut, medium spicy flavors....heavenly!Pad Thai noodles - tasty, nutty, with white fish (mahi mahi), got to have some rice noodles, red bell peppers, beans sprouts, sliver carrots, and peanuts. It has many textures!Papaya salad - tangy, salty fish sauce ( but not fishy), slight crunch when chewing the green papaya.Stuff Chicken wings - crunchy outside, warm stuffing had chicken, mushrooms, long rice, carrots wrapped around the bone. It came out piping hot with a hoisin sauce? Nonetheless, it's to die for...Come on down! Ciao!

I used to hit this place up all the time back in high school, so when I was in Kapolei recently and was craving Thai food- I knew exactly the spot! We checked out their menu online and called in our order of seafood green curry, stuffed chicken wings, and a order of sticky rice. The total was around $45 after tip and our order was ready within 15 minutes. The parking lot was a bit crazy, ( I think because the tattoo shop nearby was offering $50 flash tattoos for Halloween), so I circled the lot as my friend jumped out and grabbed our food. My favorite is their stuffed chicken wings. Total game-changer. Imagine the love child of a chicken wing and a spring roll. That's what you get--deboned chicken wings packed with ground chicken and herbs, etc. Crunch factor? 10/10. Don't forget to dip it in that sweet chili sauce. The green curry was flavorful, with some shrimp, mussels, and white fish. But let me tell you, the unsung hero here was the eggplant. Super flavorful and just soaked up that curry goodness like a sponge.The reason why I would come here a lot in High School was because my brother and his girlfriend were always on some diet (Paleo, GF, and whatnot) and this spot was able to accommodate.
