AJ and the other person working behind the counter (I didn’t get her name) we’re SUPER nice and offered suggestions. I love a menu that has pictures and their menu (both online and physical) has lots of pictures and good descriptions of the items.
I ordered Pad See Ew, Crispy Rolls, and Thai iced tea. AJ was so confident in his cooking abilities that he brought the food over so that I could smell it before he bagged it. I like your confidence, AJ. The crispy rolls were hot and delicious and the iced tea was good.
If I lived in the area I’d definitely return. I spent more money than I’d planned on spending but it feels good to support local businesses, especially when traveling.
I ordered once through google maps on my laptop and saw that they had a great 2 for 1 deal on potstickers. When I got the potstickers I was so impressed! They are so crispy and addictive, no sauce needed to be delicious. Best potstickers I’ve ever had! We also had the tom kha gai soup and yellow curry which were both delicious, and surprisingly spicy for mild. But we enjoyed that. Just a warning if you have a really low spicy tolerance.
The next time I ordered, I thought they had the 2-for-1 deal, but apparently that is only if you order through Uber Eats, which is the way it orders if you order through google maps on a laptop. So if you want the deal, order through Uber Eats! I was ordering over the phone and they said that deal is paid for through Uber Eats, not by the restaurant. But they were so friendly and considerate that they felt bad for us not knowing this and gave us an extra order of potstickers on them!
This consideration of the customer isn’t just limited to that one interaction. They’re the only restaurant I’ve seen that cuts holes in the tops of all their to go boxes for crispy items like spring rolls and potstickers so that they don’t get condensation build up and stay crispy throughout the ride home! You can tell they cut the holes by hand too. That’s so smart and so considerate of the customer.
Definitely check this place out, so delicious and great service!
The pad kee mao was good, not too sweet and had good amount flavors. It had good amount of chicken and veggies, and thick noodles. One thing I did not like was the green peppercorn – it came with two stems and some peppercorns were loose. I did not like the taste of it biting into them and it ruined the pad kee mao for me. I typically do not use this when I cook pad kee mao, so I was a bit disappointed and had to pick them out one by one. I would request them to remove this from my dish next time. The pad thai was really good, not too sugary and sweet like most places do. It also had good amounts of chicken. Love the flavors of this one! Both noodles were perfectly spicy for me, medium does have a good kick that even I felt the spice (I eat tons of spicy food). My husband thought it was a bit too spicy but it wasn’t unbearable for him; the pad thai as leftovers weren’t that spicy. I’d love to try their hot spicy level next time. Overall we will definitely order from here again and try other items on the menu and soon we’ll visit the restaurant in person!
Pad Thai with Shrimp – $19
Very bland and the noodles were over cooked.
Mango Sticky Rice – $13
The mango was good, but not enough mango. Some of the rice was under cooked
Pad See Ew with Pork -$17
Way too much pepper, could only taste the pepper, and pork was overcooked and grainy. Noodles were over cooked and falling apart.
Crispy Rolls – $11
Felt like freezer rolls, inside was really soggy and the filling was bland.
Thai Tea -$6
Run of the mill thai tea
Very disappointing experience considering this was Farmhouse Thai’s old location. At these price points, it’s better to just travel to SF or Oakland to get better thai food.
