Excellent food! Pad See Ewe, and Pork Fried rice were both very tasty. The Thai iced tea and coffee were also refreshing and perfectly made. It definitely is a family owned business, and the food reflects that style. 5 stars.

This was an interesting restaurant. It seems to be dedicated to to-go orders. But they’re really slow. The restaurant only has five tables. And the food is very bland compared to most Thai places I’ve been to. The place is very clean, but all the dishes come out in to-go plates. The food itself is cooked to perfection, even the rice is perfect, but it just doesn’t have any flavor.

Delicious family owned restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by how great the food is! I ordered the beef khao soi and chicken drunken noodles. The green tea latte was so yummy too. Give this place a try, it’s a great place, especially if you want authentic Thai food!

First, an important note: this is a soft opening, and the family who runs this place is clearly still working out the kinks. With that in mind, consider this a preliminary review meant to help both potential customers and the owners as they continue developing their restaurant.
Atmosphere:
We were a bit surprised when we walked in, we expected a sit-down restaurant, not an order-at-the-counter setup. That said, we were immediately greeted with genuine excitement. It was clear they were delighted to have us, and being among their first visitors felt special.
Service:
Because this is an order-at-the-counter spot, you shouldn’t expect full table service. Still, the owners’ warmth more than made up for that. The young man who took our order was enthusiastic and kind, and our food came out quickly.
Food:
This was the highlight. Everything we tried was delicious, the noodles especially were flavorful and satisfying. The menu is small at the moment, but I imagine it will grow as they settle in and refine their offerings.
Overall:
A great little place with tons of potential. I’ll likely return for takeout or a casual lunch, though probably not for a sit-down dinner. I encourage others to give it a try, your support will help this family-run restaurant continue to establish itself and grow.

I drove by the other day and noticed a new sign for a Thai restaurant! We checked it out for dinner and the food was great. We tried the yellow curry, pad see ew, and drunken noodles. The yellow curry had good flavor, though the potato was slightly undercooked for my taste. It wasn’t too spicy. The pad see ew and drunken noodles both had the wok hei we were wanting, and they were both very flavorful. The staff was very friendly to our toddler and brought out some homemade tofu soup for her after they realized we ordered the yellow curry for her but thought it would be too spicy for her. The only ding is that their food is served on paper and plastic plates/bowls. I think they do more business with online/pick up orders, so it makes sense, but environmentally kind of wasteful and cheapens the dine in experience a bit

What a delightful experience! The Penang curry was a delicious and spicy treat. This is a family business with outstanding customer service and really good food. My only issue is I believe they should raise their prices-the food is a great value for the quality.
