Extremely Concerning Experience — Please Be Careful I’ve been a regular customer at this Thai restaurant and usually love their food, so today’s experience was extremely disturbing. I ordered my usual shrimp Pad Thai and shrimp spring rolls. I immediately noticed that the food tasted very different—and not good. I told my waitress, Mercedes, several times. She checked with the chef and came back saying the issue was the lemongrass. I packed the remaining food to take home. There was also a strange issue with my bill: the items were listed as $13 + $17, yet the total was $31. When I questioned it, the manager simply told me that was how it rang up. About five minutes after leaving, I had an urgent gastrointestinal reaction and had to make an emergency bathroom stop. I became convinced that something was wrong with the food. I contacted the restaurant and spoke with Manager Michelle. She took all of my information and said she would get back to me. She never did. I called again today and left a message with another manager asking Michelle to contact me. Again, no response. Then things became even more alarming. When I went to dispose of the leftovers, I discovered what appeared

This place is outstanding! The dishes are a little different from our typical Thai food (likely from the Vietnamese influence), but they’re also willing to customize them to your specific liking. My wife and I went with something a little different than our norm, and we’re so glad we did. The food was outstanding, and the entire staff was willing to have real conversations with us, which truly helped us choose the right dishes. We especially wanted to call out both Jyzeth and Mario for making our experience so enjoyable. The kitchen staff also deserves a heartfelt nod. Keep up the great work! We will be back!

My first visit was last night, and it was an amazing experience! My partner and I received exceptional service from our waitress, who truly made us feel welcome. She even brought us a complimentary sticky rice and eggplant sampler, and it was absolutely delicious. We ordered the $19 sampler, which included a great variety of items, and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. I also had a glass of rosé that paired perfectly with the meal and made the evening even more enjoyable. After looking through the menu, we both decided on the lemongrass chicken with rice for our entrées. The food was flavorful, well-prepared, and exceeded our expectations. Overall, we had a wonderful dining experience and enjoyed spending the evening together. A special thank you to our waitress for her outstanding hospitality and for making our first visit so memorable. We will definitely be back!

Very good service. Very good food. It did not take us long to get seated. The server was there quickly to take our order. They brew their beers in house and they are very good. I would try the Dopplebock. They have good Thai tea and other drinks that are so good. The sticky rice amuse bûche is actually quite tasty. The pineapple fried rice is really good. You can tell they use fresh pineapple versus canned pineapples. The drunken noodles were absolutely amazing, it will probably be the thing I get next time I’m there. A friend of mine got the Seabass noodle dish, but didn’t love it. They offered to give her drunken noodles to take home and didn’t charge us for the Seabass, which was kind. The restaurant and servers in general are just very accommodating and made sure that everyone was taken care of. And if you have room for dessert, please get the mango sticky rice. Theirs is so fresh and delicious and you should save room!
