“Absolutely premium comfort food. It’s got a quiet ambience. Tasty food and the tea healed my running nose.”
“The hostess was so welcoming. The servers were likewise great with kids, even on a Friday night. They had real water cups for them with lids and straws, and high chairs. No kids menu. As for food, I was a little bummed when the pad ka pao didn't have ground chicken, just thin slices, and no egg on top, but it was still tasty and sufficiently spicy.”
“The chicken satay, crispy tilapia and the chicken Ka pao was absolutely spot on. But the spicy seafood fried rice could have been better. As the mango sticky rice was out of stock :( we ordered the coconut ice cream and did not at all like the experiment with ice cream on top of a hot dog bun! Would not recommend this dessert. All in all it was a good experience! And I will definitely be back for the crispy tilapia!”
“Quality, tasty Thai food served by a friendly team. Great options for vegetarians. Two of us ate on a weekday for lunch, and there wasn’t much rush. Conveniently located in Mount Pleasant, the outside dining was comfortable, and the street not too busy. I had the drunken noodles, which was served in more than ample portions and quite tasty. Would go again when in the area.”
“A good, reliable, local spot for Thai food. I enjoyed all the dishes I ordered and thought they were good value, with some areas for improvement. The shrimp cakes were freshly fried but a bit bland, the Penang curry was extremely flavorful but I would have liked some more vegetables, and the drunken noodles had nice fresh wide rice noodles and a good spice level, but the beef was overcooked and tough. Service was great and attentive. It seems like their reservation system is broken - they showed as having no tables available until 9pm, but I arrived earlier and the restaurant was nearly empty. Don’t be dissuaded if the online system says there’s no tables.”
