Authentic, powerfully-Thai dishes, fair prices and incredibly-polite wait staff make this a terrific lunch or dinner experience. The Tom kha gai, Tom yum... true to their coconut milk bases. The noodles are excellent and the curries are very flavorful.A great lunch spot on veterans.

Came in for dinner with some friends. Small space but enough room for a table of 6. Service was quick and friendly. Salted egg calamari - honestly, couldn't really tell there was salted egg on it. Flavor was really light. But overall a good fried calamari dish. Also came with battered jalapeños and a sweet dipping sauce. Tom yum soup w shrimp - flavorful. Came with 3 shrimp to a bowl. Isaan papaya salad w level 4 spice - I love papaya salad and I always feel the stinkier the better. This was good, but lacking that funk I was expecting from Isaan style. Papaya salad was good. Not too sweet. Came with lots of protein.

First time visiting. The restaurant is small with maybe a dozen tables. The food is delicious and it comes out fast! I got the drunken noodles with chicken, spice level 2. The spice level was just perfect, but the temperature of the restaurant itself was a bit warm. That could make for a hot combo!Good service. We also had the option to scan the receipt and pay from our phone. I suspect that I will be visiting again someday!

Wow this is a gem of an authentic Thai restaurant located in a small strip center. Very few tables so there was a lot of to go orders that were picked up constantly while we dined. The food was fantastic! We ordered a few apps to split at the table. We got the pork rolls, shu mai, and roti. The roti came with a delicious curry dip. The pork rolls were crunchy but the shu mai and their dip were the star for me. For my main dish I got the pad ped. I asked for it pretty spicy with chicken and they delivered! I liked that it had a good bit of veggies in there too.

Really tasty Thai food. It was different than a lot of places I've tried. They had a hot sour soup that was "oddly" flavored. It took some getting used to but in the end I enjoyed it. I asked the waitress if it had tamarind in it but she was clueless. The pad Thai was different, as well. Their heat level (1-5) was spot on. I ordered 4 and it made my nose run. All Thai chilis, too. Very nice. Friend ordered their BKK wings and they were the lone loser. The food was 4* but the rest was 3*. I'd like to see their location change with more space and better seating.

So the food is ok and nothing really gave a good Thai food. Not only that the place is boocoo tight. Do yourself a favor and order to go if you crave Thai. The service is horrible. One server for like 20 small tables. She couldn't get to us for nothing. Def won't come back.
