Loved this place! We came in for an early dinner and had no trouble finding a seat. The atmosphere was relaxed and easy for conversation. It’s definitely a great spot for a quick bite or takeout. We ordered the Country Pad Thai and the Green Curry. The Pad Thai was fantastic with perfect tandoori flavor and a great mix of tofu, chicken, and shrimp. I ordered it at a hot spice level, which was very manageable, and I could easily go up one or two notches next time. The Green Curry was outstanding with a rich depth of flavor and delicious zucchini. The curry-to-rice ratio was spot on, so you didn’t have to ration it out bit by bit. Definitely love this local spot and can’t wait to come back!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

My husband and I ordered a little more regular in this place since the food Omg is delicious, the first time we looked at it it was something charming because in none of the places nearby there is papaya salad with this type of flavor to what to our liking we like more with the flavor of strong garlic, but that doesn't matter it has a lot of flavor, then we ordered Tom yum soup, and seriously that lemon grass flavor is unique my opinion is that it is delicious, we are both allergic to shrimp and they did a good job replacing it For any other chicken / tofu meat, It is worth mentioning that we like Thai food and this place has a very good flavor, I ordered the Country Phat Thai and also very rich a tamarind flavor, This place is very close to me, so for me it is very nice to have to go eat there! Whether it's breakfast or dinner or takeaway. Everything is very tasty

Large Disappointment. We need a good Thai place close for sit down and take out... this is not it unless they fix a bunch of stuff. We ordered 5 different dishes. Flavors were good on most (Pineapple rice had no flavor) and they were all lacking vegies and/or meat. For example see the photo I posted of Pad Ga Praw. I've eaten this dish ~100 times at ~30 different Thai restaurants around the USA. This version is the only one that didnt have a ton of Green Beans, which is supposed to be half the darn entrée! This is a take out place since the ambiance is a solid "We dont want you to eat here so we did nothing to make it comfortable or enjoyable." vibe. - Pad Ga Praw, great flavor, no veg! - Pineapple Fried rice was 98% rice, not much flavor and hardly any meat or cashews, no raisins that I could see, etc - Khao Soi had almost very little meat, and no veg at all other than the bean sprouts they give you on the side - Thai Curry, great flavor, good amt of veg, ok on the meat but could use more. - Larb Salad, good flavor, lacked onions and had only 1 tiny lettuce leaf.
