Reviews
For the first trip we ordered the chicken satay, chicken pad thai, and chicken mango curry. The chicken satay was amazing, especially for the price ($10) and I would go back just for that. Both sweet and peanut sauces paired well with the chicken satay. It comes with a little grill to add some grill marks to the tender and juicy chicken, super fun. The chicken is also seasoned well, with a strong lemongrass flavor.
The pad thai was a little dry for me, and not super flavorful, but very worth the price as I had plenty of leftovers.
The mango curry was amazing, slightly spicy with a flavorful base.
The second time we ordered the chicken satay once again (10/10 dish) and a red curry with chicken and the beef pho. I asked for the curry to not have bell peppers, and they were very accommodating.
The pho was large and yummy, I am no pho expert but it was a very nice pho. The soup base was not a clear broth but tasted very light and flavorful.
We also ordered the mango sticky rice from the separate dessert menu (I believe it’s from an adjacent restaurant). The sticky rice was delicious but the mango was not ripe enough. The coconut sauce it was cooked in seemed a little thin, which I have no issues with but I am used to a thicker coconut sauce. I might not get it again because of the size, but still a good try if you’ve never had mango sticky!
Overall I would recommend the curries and the chicken satay! The hosts were wonderful and service was timely. The interior of the restaurant is clean and spacious, with plenty of parking outside.
We ordered the curry puff as a starter. The puff pastry and cucumber chutney were very good but the filing was underwhelming. Not much curry flavor.
I got the lunch size eggplant pad with beef. I liked the portion for the price but honestly it was very bland. Bad bland. Not seasoned, sitting in a brothy soup that was unappealing. My eggplant was mush. I can see why there are mixed reviews on this place. A woman sitting in the booth behind us ordered the Pad Thai. Once her waitress left I heard her comment to her lunch companion that it smelled like wet dog. Sure, fish sauce has a funk to it but I’ve never thought Pad Thai smelled like wet dog. That’ll be a permanent pass for me from here.
My coworker ordered the amazing sauce lunch with duck. He said he enjoyed it.
The star of our lunch was surprisingly the sushi. We shared the green dragon roll which was huge and very delicious. It really made up for the rest. Overall I’d eat the Japanese side of the menu if I came here again. I’ll pass on the Thai.
DO NOT RECOMMEND!
Don’t let the pictures fool you. I’m just a good photographer!
There were 6 of us. Out of six dishes only two were good – Ramen Kee Pow and Shrimp Fried Rice.
Coconut Soup with Tofu had a good taste but the mushrooms were rubber. I thought it was chicken fat at first and then realized it was a mushroom.
The Teriyaki Chicken was so SALTY! We couldn’t finish eating it once the rice was gone. And the rice portions are small! Wasted a lot of food here.
The Crispy Pork was way past crispy. It was like chewing rocks.
The Volcano Shrimp was so chewy. Like chewing “ABC” gum (Already Been Chewed)from under the bleachers at school.
We ordered another dish of chicken fried rice just so we wouldn’t starve.
We told our server our concerns and she did nothing. Received a bill of $157 for inedible food. We were so ready to get out of there and get some real food!
Big waste of money and food!
