Reviews
Good
– Really solid Thai food!
– I liked the cat decor, it was super cute!
– The staff were super nice to us and very patient
– The tom kha soup was very refreshing and tasty!
– I really liked the pad thai special dish but it was also a bit small
– Food came out quickly!
Bad
– Portion sizes are on the smaller side
Overall enjoyed the experience and the ambiance was great for friends!
A nice restaurant with lots of live plants – some are expensive tropical plants if you know them – that means the owner takes pride in the plants and does well to take care of them.
Pad see eew was alright. Tasty is flavorful but I like it when there’s some “wok hei” / smokiness when noodles are fried from a well seasoned wok.
Beef fat fried rice was delicious with a good piece of beef. We had it mild medium spicy and even then it was spicy for us. Not sure if they could do it mild. But it was a stellar entree that I would recommend especially with the tender flavorful beef and the sauce that goes with it.
Roast duck lychee curry was delicious! The winner of the night. The lychee imparts natural sweetness and a floral flavor to the curry that was just outstanding. I could eat this and be totally satisfied for a meal instead of all the other dishes.
Hat yai fried chicken was ok. Chicken was tender and crispy, going well with the sauce but the sticky rice was too dry and hard that it didn’t add well to the overall entree.
Would definitely return for the roast duck lychee curry and perhaps try their version of khao soi next time
The mango in the mango sticky rice was quite sour — not sure if it was out of season. Overall, the experience was okay. I’d probably come back to try their pad see ew next time.
The hangover noodles were SPICY but delicious. They had mild options and you could ask for dishes to be made less spicy. The pumpkin curry was really good especially with chicken, and tofu in the vegetarian dishes had a really nice texture. The eggplant skin was a bit tough but the dish itself was great.
Overall I recommend this place to satisfy a craving for Thai.
Their pad krapow is spicy but it’s a type of spice that keeps u wanting more. We always order at least 2 or 3 mains to share as a family and we leave full to the brim by the time we finish.
Very cute vibes, not too overly spacious but a good spot for Thai food!
Get the lava toast! It’s basically a dessert sampler platter.
Also: bidet 5/5
I ordered the shrimp curry. While it came with plenty of shrimp, the curry sauce had a chalky texture. It looked smooth but left an odd, chalky sensation in my mouth.
My brother ordered the fried chicken, which he said only tasted good once he added hot sauce.
My sister and her husband shared the calamari appetizer and Thai basil chicken. The calamari was unseasoned and overly chewy. They sent it back, and while the restaurant did try again, the preparation still missed the mark. We eventually asked for simple salt and pepper to help it. The Thai basil chicken had good flavor, but the portion was noticeably small—especially compared to other Thai restaurants we’ve tried at a similar price point.
Another surprise: rice is not included with entrées. I was shocked that my shrimp curry and the Thai basil chicken came without rice. We ended up paying $6 for a small bowl of rice to share.
Service began well but fell flat by the end. After we paid (and tipped generously), we were rushed out because the restaurant closed at 2:30—even though three other tables were still dining.
Overall: 1 star for service and 2 stars for food. Sadly, we won’t be returning.
