Environment: The restaurant needs a better ventilation system. You come in for food and get out as a smoky bbq. And there is little to no Thai vibe.
Service: service is fine around average level. I do not have a complaint.
Food: Tom Kha soup is good. The stir fried glass good is recommended. the basil fried rice is average. The Pad kee maw is too soggy and lacks of aroma from cooking in high temperature, very disappointing.
I think it is a okay Thai food stop but do not give too high expectation.

The flavors at this Thai restaurant were a bit overwhelming for me. The spices were quite strong and sharp, and a few dishes had noticeable salt that hadn’t fully dissolved, which affected the overall taste.
The service was average, though the staff were generally courteous, so I appreciated that.
Overall, the experience wasn’t terrible, but the food didn’t quite meet my expectations.

Thai Bistro has the best Pad See Eww in town! I love Pad See Eww. I always get the same order: beef and with no Bean Sprouts at every Thai restaurant I go to. This was my first time there today and by far they have the best one I’ve ever had. The noodles are super thick. I hate when I order Pad See Eww and the noodles are all broken. Not here, the noodles are perfectly cooked!

I ordered Tom Yum soup and paid an extra $4 for shrimp protein, making it $18 total. The soup came with only 5 small shrimp, a few pieces of white mushrooms, and a little scallion. The portion was very small and absolutely not worth the price.
I also ordered beef with broccoli and rice. The beef was extremely dry and tough, almost impossible to chew, and the rice was overcooked and mushy.
Because the food quality was disappointing, I left a 10% tip. The owner immediately showed an unhappy attitude and walked away, which made the whole experience very uncomfortable.
Overall, the food is overpriced with small portions, poor quality, and unfriendly service. I won’t be coming back.

Thought we’d give it a try and we’re glad we did! Ordered the cucumber salad which was fresh and not too sweet. We also ordered the steamed dumplings which were tender and flavorful. Our entrees we’re the yellow curry and mixed vegetables. The. curry was light with white meat chicken. Full of flavors and not oily at all. The mixed vegetables were fresh in a light garlic sauce. Our server was the only one in the restaurant, and she managed to serve everyone with a smile and still do take out orders and bus tables. Everything we ate was fresh and light. Definitely adding it to the list!

This was the best Thai food I’ve had. The duck curry was perfectly tender and not too sweet or oily. The Tom Kha soup with mushrooms was creamy but light and with just the right amount of tang to it. The mango sticky rice took it over the top. I’ll be back often. The server and cook were very gracious as well. You won’t be disappointed.
