I really liked this restaurant when I first moved into the area. Unfortunately, hospitality and food quality has since declined. Upon arriving at the restaurant, I was met at the front by the man who would later take my order. I asked if they were open as it appeared as though he was locking the door. After a curt response of “yes”, he proceeded to open the door for himself and it swiftly shut behind him. I should mention I’m 8 months pregnant. I ordered the Thai Basil Noodle, a noodle dish with wide noodles, broccoli, bamboo shoots and chicken, requested it be at the highest spice level. When I came back to collect my order, I was told my meal would be “medium” and when I asked for this to be corrected, they put a vinegar-based condiment into my bag. When I opened my order, I was disappointed to see my noodles were super-short, my broccoli looked and tasted as though previously frozen. While there was a decent amount of chicken, it seemed rubbery and some pieces were burned. The vinegar- based hot sauce included threw the dish off for me, personally. There also seemed to be a hair in my food. Overall, was very disappointed with the meal.

Take out only, but this is my go-to Thai place!! Love their curries and the Tom Kha veg soup. We always get “Thai spicy” spice level, and the flavor is amazing!

Update 8/15/23 Still very good food at very reasonable price. After COVID, they decided to not open up the dining hall anymore especially since their son is now in college. Only to-go service offered now. If you haven't already, check out this place. You will not be disappointed, guaranteed 👍 --- A hidden gem. A small family run restaurant where the mom and dad cook in the back and the son is always in the front doing homework or playing video games and taking care of customers. Very nice people. Great tasty food and reasonable prices.

Loved the food! perfect balance of spices. I ordered Panaag curry, Thai fried rice, Pad Thai, Tom Kha Soup were delicious and I felt it's made from scratch. If you are Thai food enthusiast, this place is worth a try. I believe, its open for dinner only.

The peanut sauce here is stupidly good. Don't know what it is about it, but I love getting the 'healthy salad' and smothering it with it. it's soooo yummy. I like their panang curry a lot, too, but I don't really care for the noodles they come with very much. I still order it if I'm in the mood for a good Thai curry. I also really like their Crab Rangoon, comes with sweet chili sauce which not every place does. I honestly didn't care for their pad Thai, but the servings was VERY reasonable for the price and I'm thinking it wasn't bad, just not to my taste. I look forward to trying more stuff here in the future.
