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.

Excerpts

I came here after seeing the good reviews because I had to grab dinner between work and another engagement. I had the summer rolls with shrimp, pad Thai with beef, and some kind of Laotian lager. The pad Thai was great, maybe a little wet but still very delicious. The summer rolls with the accompanying peanut sauce stole the show, though. Next time I may just get 3 or 4 orders of those because they were dynamite. The service was prompt and friendly, and the food was ready quickly but not so quickly that you’d think they had it just sitting back there waiting on someone to order it. The location and decor are Rivergate, I’ll leave it at that but does that really matter with good food? I definitely plan on going back.

Food was horrible. Yellow noddles with pork came out with tofu instead of pork, and it was gross. Bean sprouts, onion and beef... had hardly any beef in it. A #2 spice level os most places #4. Very disappointed. We are from out of town and was staying on the opposite side of town, or I would have taken it all back.

Everything is good. The staff is very friendly. And the prices are decent. Rates are going up. They have a sign on the door that their prices will increase, which is no problem. What I don’t like is the 15% service charge, aka -Tip, that they charge you without your consent. I will give a tip for pick up orders, but I don’t like that they force you. I’m sure some might say, that is because others won’t tip. It just doesn’t feel right. And I don’t like that. So if you are thinking I’ll take it to go and it will be a little cheaper- no. So just know that staying in or taking out they are already charging for the tip- so no need to do more tip. It feels like stealing. It might be best to raise your menu prices more and just not make this additional charge.
