The drinks were delicious and the service was very friendly and attentive. The food was good, but it leaned on the sweeter side for my taste—it felt a bit too sweet. Overall, still a nice dining experience!

Good and interesting Thai food. However, the prices are absurdly high. Another negative is that their graprow (literally means basil in Thai) has no basil in it. Instead it has a basil sauce. And then on top of their high prices they charge a 3.99% convenience fee for credit cards, and suggest you pay 20, 25, 30, or 35% as a tip.

This might be my new favorite Burlington restaurant. It’s been open for several years but had managed to fly under my radar, maybe because there are other great Thai places in the area (Tiny Thai), or maybe because it is literally tucked away in an alley. The cocktails here are among the best in the area, plus they also have unique, large drinks for sharing. I can’t think of another place in the state that serves “sake towers”. They even have hookahs! That’s very much Not My Thing, but I appreciate the uniqueness (don’t worry, there’s no smoking inside the restaurant). My favorite dishes so far are the creative pad Thai gyoza and the crispy chicken (with curry sauce) bao buns, but I have yet to have a “bad” dish here. I recommend either getting reservations, or showing up when they open, because it does get busy. The atmosphere is kind of funky, with neon lights in a dim space and eclectic music (one night we visited, the music was all rap…very rare to hear in VT). It’s a nice break from the standard asian restaurant decor around here.

This place REALLY threw me for a loop… walking there I was expecting a quickie bite.. not an amazing dinner meal that even my picky husband enjoyed!
The vibe definitely did not match the level of culinary skills in the food. We got chive pancakes, they were chewy crispy and savory – perfect appetizer!
Two Asahi’s to complement our entrees:
crying tiger fried rice, the sirloin was marinated to PERFECTION! Best I’ve EVER had.
Duck Penang was an entire duck leg in a creamy delicious curry sauce with pineapples and tomatoes. So mouthwatering thinking about it now..
Staff was soooo young but SUPER hospitable and lovely! Luckily we’re not locals otherwise it’d be a weekly meal here for us!

When Church Street is flooded with people and every restaurant has a long line, I go here. The people are incredibly friendly, the atmosphere is warm and the food is outstanding. Meals will run you around $20 per person with drinks and it’s well worth it. The Chicken Penang is some of the best I’ve had and I recommend this place for anyone at any occasion.

We loved the place, every restaurant in Burlington was booked but they were able to slot our family of four in. Food is delicious, so are the drinks. Cozy atmosphere, small space, and super friendly staff. One review complains that the food wasn’t at all authentic Thai food. I have only been to Thailand once and wouldn’t consider myself a specialist in this cuisine. But I do care about delicious food and this certainly tasted great- and pretty “Thai” to me.

My coworker and I went in last night and had a fantastic dinner and amazing drinks. The attention to detail on their cocktails is impeccable; Jenny and crew are creating drinks behind the bar that will blow you away. If you sit at the bar and are feeling adventurous, ask to “roll the dice”….they have flavor descriptors on dice behind the bar. Roll them and they will create a custom cocktail based on what you rolled. Very fun idea!
I got a scallop and shrimp noodle dish that was so flavorful. We can’t wait to go back and try more of the dishes on the new menu.

Tasty food, delicious drinks and attentive service.
Had a wonderful dinner here with Mateo as our server. The food and drinks were out quickly and everything tasted so good.
The pad thai served in the banana leaf was especially scrumptious.
We’ll be back when we’re in the area
