“Very very good Thai restaurant in New Orleans! Some of the best service I’ve ever had at a restaurant in NOLA, servers were so helpful and checked on us many times making sure we were satisfied. The green curry with tofu was AMAZING! My roommate had the Penang curry with tofu and it was also really delicious! Good prices too in my opinion. I will definitely be back here!!!”
“Good place to get Thai food around New Orleans. Good service, good looking menu. The food came out hot and fresh, the noodles were pretty good, could be a tiny bit more flavorful, overall I recommend and will come back.”
“Servers were friendly and good recommendations. The space is warm and inviting. Love the mural behind the tables. Food was delicious. I ordered drunken noodles with shrimp and crab racoon. I usually only eat half my meals to save for later, but it was so good I forgot to stop. Thus the picture of the empty bowl.”
“I love Thai food, so I keep trying new places around NOLA. I order stir fried vegetable, but found the vegetable s floating in too much broth. The restaurant doesn’t offer a lunch menu, and it’s over priced, which is probably why there were no patrons. I’m spoiled from great Thai in my hometown. I’m just not returning to any of these overpriced and under delivered places. $31 for lunch.”
“Went to this restaurant last night on 5/28/2026 at around 6:00 p.m. I’ve visited this establishment a few times before and enjoyed my experiences; however, last night was absolutely horrible. I ordered the chicken pad Thai and there were several egg shells inside of it. I notified my waitress and told her I didn’t want a new plate of it (since I was nervous about receiving a new plate of pad Thai with more egg shells). The Chef came out from the kitchen and as opposed to apologizing for giving me food unsafe for consumption, she said to me “you have a problem with the food?” I pointed to the eggshells and told her they were in my meal. I then told her I’d like the basil fried rice instead and she told me that she wouldn’t do that. She gave me an option of either taking the dish off my ticket or remaking it. Her demeanor was rude and she was very unapologetic about the fact that there were egg shells in my food. Very disappointed and disgusted.”
