    This was our first visit, but our kids both recommended it. I just wish we had tried it sooner! It's a lovely little space, clean and cozy. I loved the quiet music that was playing, very soothing after a long hard day. Service was quick and friendly. My husband did have to wait for a little bit for his main dish after they brought mine with the appetizer. Minor issue, but I do wish they'd held mine until his was ready. I had the chicken Pad Thai and it was really good! It's not spicy, if that's what you're looking for. I like it either way. Great flavor and beautifully plated. My husband got the sweet and sour chicken. It was not the bright red sauce we're used to seeing! It was a lovely, rich tangy sauce just slightly sweet. Nice sized chunks of deep fried chicken with peppers and white rice on the side. The egg rolls were good as well, hot and crispy with a flaky crust. We will for sure be back!

    We stopped for dinner at 5:30pm on a Friday night in November with some friends. We had no trouble getting a table and were greeted by a friendly server who quickly brought us water and drinks. She was helpful with the menu and took our orders. We ordered the spring rolls and our friends ordered the egg rolls. The spring rolls came out almost 10 minutes before the egg rolls, creating an awkward situation. Since the spring rolls were chilled wraps, there was no reason they couldn't have timed them together. The entrées arrived together. Unfortunately, that was the last time we saw the wait staff until the check arrived. They never came to ask about our food (it was excellent) and never offered drink or water refills (I wanted both). It was not busy, so I'm not certain why they ignored us. I even attempted to make eye contact while holding my water glass several times to no avail. I will likely return for the food, but hope to be treated with more attentive service in the future.

    This was my first Thai restaurant experience in America and it felt Authentic. The food was delicious. Even the appetizer was carefully cooked to perfection. The prices were absolutely fair and I will happily return.

    One of the restaurants my family frequents. We always enjoy our food, but the spice levels are not consistent. I like a mild spice and the last two times I ordered pad Thai with a "1" spice, it was too hot for me to fully enjoy. My son who orders a 3 tried my food and agreed it was hotter than his. (We ordered different dishes so it wasn't an accidental switch) I ordered tofu pad Thai and my tofu was very overcooked.

    Went there with my son and daughter in law because it is one of their favorite Thai restaurants and I absolutely understand why. YUMMY EVERYTHING! Appetizers: Crabmeat rangoon, fried pork eggrolls, fresh shrimp rolls, quail, fried calamari papaya salad- got #3 spicy- hold on to your water pitcher!! Delicious! Soup for the 5 of us: Tom Yum Main Course: Volcano Chicken, Beef Pad See Ew , Nam Kow, Crispy Pork Belly My favorite main course was Crispy Pork Belly. Loved the crunch. Dessert: Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango. It was a great end to a delicious meal. We will be back to do karaoke!! Service was super! Sorry, folks. We were so hungry I forgot to take pics.

    Food was good, not the best in town but decent. Service was great. We had the Nam Kow, basically fried rice with some sausage with peanuts on top. Huge lime flavor. Place was covered in garnish so I left still hungry. I ordered a 4/5 spice and the base red curry came out spicier. Red curry was decent though, large bowl, lots of veggies, little bit of meat.
