Reviews
I arrived solo for dinner at 630p on a Wednesday evening. I was pleasantly greeted and seated immediately. The restaurant is located in a strip mall, but it’s very cozy, warm, and inviting. The soft lighting and comfy booths lends itself to lingering conversation over a meal.
My server brought out complimentary edamame. The edamame was cold and bland. Had the edamame been fried and crispy hot, this would have been a welcome treat. Also, I have a sneaky suspicion the edamame is recycled from one patron to the next.
My order of veggie spring rolls was hot and crispy, but tasted pre-made. Like the grocery store, frozen type. The doughyness of the interior crust was a dead giveaway that these spring rolls are processed.
My entree was the Kob Kun fried chicken pieces with white rice and veggies. It arrived to my table lukewarm, which is odd because the place wasn’t very busy.
The fried chicken pieces were the pre-battered, machine shaped, pieces of chicken. Clearly, they weren’t hand battered. The sauce was a bit sweet for my taste buds. The dish included a nice variety of mixed veggies.
This is Thai food for an American palate. I’d prefer a more authentic experience.
For me, my “drunken fried rice” wasn’t flavorful. The spice level was good. And the ingredients seemed fresh. But it was bland for me. I think missing more garlic and oyster sauce. I also don’t think they used Thai peppers. There was a lot of black pepper, which I’ve never seen for a Thai dish. Should use white pepper instead.
My friend has the jungle curry was delicious and flavorful.
The shrimp cakes were good as well. But not great and would’ve preferred Thai fish cakes.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was super nice, the decor was so pretty and the staff was super kind and friendly.
The food was great as well! The pad Thai with soft tofu was delicious, not too sweet and savory. The drunken noodles were good as well, next time I’ll ask for them to be spicier.
Overall I would 10/10 recommend this place
For starters, we got the only chicken tom kha and the yum caramelized dried fish salad. Both were out of this world. The tom kha was packed with chicken and vegetables, but the soup itself was good enough to eat on its own. This was the first time we tried a caramelized dried fish salad but it’s probably our favorite now.
For entrees, we got the fish prik glua and crispy duck with basil. Both were wonderful. Each came with a good amount of fish/duck and vegetables. We were too full to get desert but will definitely try next time.
