LOVE THIS PLACE. First of all, such nice staff & fast service, perfect for if ur in the go, but also a cute and quaint spot if you want to sit for a quick meal. Second, delicious food. I got the chicken pad Thai, which was delicious and filling and not that expensive compared to other restaurants in the area. Also highly recommended their Thai iced coffee, so delicious and refreshing, just what I needed. Definitely visiting again.
We went here because it was the only affordable place on the street, and we're so glad we did. Food was very yummy and came out really fast. The inside is kind of a hole in the wall, not fancy at all, but that was fine with us. I had the pad see ew with chicken and a Thai iced tea -- delicious.
This is a cute Thai place. Pretty good food. We got yellow curry, veggie spring rolls, pad Thai and drunken noodles. The taste was pretty good, not like amazing, but good for filling a craving. Not bad prices either. The seating area is tiny though. Most people get their food to go so just keep that in mind if you ever visit. Solid 7/10.
Went here for a quick lunch without any prior knowledge or expectations about the place. Surprisingly, the food turned out to be quite good! Atmosphere is lower end and plates are plastic, but, overall, tasted well.
The pad Thai was some of the best I've ever had! The chicken satay roti was a bit dry and i don't prefer the bigger chunks of chicken. Service was fast and efficient.
Fast, delicious, affordable. Great hole-in-the-wall. We got the lemongrass chicken and basil pork. Both excellent.
I went here to have their Chicken Thai fried rice and Chicken Pad See Ew with Noodles. It came out in a quick timely manner and it tasted delicious. I would definitely come here again.
I got some mango sticky rice here at a friend’s recommendation. It was a little price but so good! There isn’t much seating inside but it seems that there was a lot of to-go traffic so it never felt too crowded.
