You MUST try the Pad Thai Popcorn Chicken! It’s one of the most delicious foods I’ve ever tried. I’ve ordered this multiple times and it’s always at a great temperature (I order delivery) it pairs excellently with their brown rice too.

So delicious and flavourful. Khao Soi and lemongrass mango salad were incredible. Medium spicy is well enough heat in these two dishes in our opinion and we typically like spicy. The mango sticky rice was also super tasty!

After years of enjoying their lunch specials, we finally visited for dinner. At dinner, the chicken satay skewers and yellow curry were both fantastic. For a lunch special, the chicken & broccoli stir fry is great as well. Definitely recommend for a casual Thai spot.

The ingredients used in the food and the fruits seemed fresh. We ordered medium and spicy dishes but even the spicy version wasn’t as spicy as other Thai restaurants. The service was good with friendly servers. If you’re looking for proper ambience then you’ll be disappointed but if you don’t mind the small Asian restaurant ambience then it’ll be all good. On the whole, I was pleasantly impressed with the joint and would come back to the place.

Taking to-go and trying a new place. We got the fresh rolls, crispy rolls, roti, spicy fried rice, panang curry with side of white rice.

Very solid Thai place. I like the green curry with chicken more than the kang pa curry, which had a tad too much peppercorn for me. To go orders were packed well.

Oh dear, let me tell you about this restaurant experience I had! So, I went to this place expecting some tasty Thai flavors that would make my taste buds dance with joy. But alas, my hopes were dashed! The food lacked that distinct Thai essence, and the beef and chicken dishes were overwhelmed by chilli. Can you believe it? Chilli is great, but not when it’s the only thing you can taste! To make matters worse, we tossed more than half of our meal. It was just not up to par, my friend. The only saving grace was the rice, which we managed to salvage. But let me tell you, it was far from the best Thai meal I’ve ever had, and I definitely won’t be ordering from there again. No way, no how! But wait, there’s more. The server brought me a Thai pad dish with shrimp instead of chicken. Can you imagine the disappointment? I politely let them know about the mix-up, expecting a replacement dish to be offered. But, alas, all I got was a measly $1 discount. Talk about underwhelming! Although the noodles didn’t quite hit the spot, I appreciated the server’s effort to rectify the situation. At least they tried, right? And here’s another kicker: the yellow curry chicken lacked the necessary saltiness for my liking. I also brought this to their attention, hoping they would offer a replacement. But no, nada, zilch! They didn’t even bat an eye. Sigh. It’s like they didn’t care about my taste buds at all. Overall, my experience at this restaurant fell far short of my expectations.

Looks like I missed with my order. Tried the Pad Khee Mao which they called flat spicy noodles. It was bland and tasteless and quite disappointing. The fish cakes were nice.

Ordered the fried tofu pad Thai and was very impressed that their prices on DoorDash are the exact same as the regular menu. I do wish they were on Uber eats though. The pad Thai itself had a good portion and was impressed that they included some carrots and lettuce as vegetable garnish alongside the standard bean sprouts. Wish they offered fried bean sprouts as a garnish option instead. The fried tofu was nice and crispy and creamy on the inside. Portion sizes are pretty good and the spicy option was perfect for my taste buds. Did wish there were some bolder traditional Thai flavors of sweet and sour.
