“ I have been coming here for close to 10 years now. This place never disappoints. I usually go with the Thai classics like pad see ew, pad Thai, etc but I've experienced with different menu items and I can safely say everything is pretty delicious here. For the first time ever I tried Tom Yum soup and it is now something I crave from this place. Cool spot for a date and staff is always hospitable. If I can give future customers a word of advice it would be to bring cash. ”

“ Never disappoints, one of my favorite places in all of LA. Squash Curry (sub) Coconut Rice is insanely good. ”

“ Excellent food, hospitality, service and ambience: I enjoy both the dining in and the takeout options Child friendly. Incredibly welcoming. So impressed. ”
“ I was in the area and stumbled across this place. It didn't stand out and just blended in with the area. Once inside, it looked like many other similarly themed restaurants. It was quaint and it had a type of charm you get from a small business. What makes this place great is the food and service. As you can see from the photos, especially the Pad Thai, the presentation is way above what you normally get at a restaurant in this price point. And if you can believe it, the food tastes better than it looks. My son even claimed that the chicken he got was one of the best he ever had, which is high praise coming from a guy who never has anything good to say. As with many of my reviews, I recommend trying this place because I had a great experience. I do have to mention that this place does not accept credit card, but it wasn't a big deal since there are many alternative methods to pay, but it is a surprise. ”
“ I stopped by on Fri, 12/22/2023 for a lunch with my former coworkers at around 11:20 AM. Parking: The restaurant has its own parking lot out front and I was fortunately able to get a spot. The interior is pretty spacious. Since we arranged for an earlier lunch, it was no problem getting seated. The menu was a little overwhelming since there were quite a few pages, but I opted for the Lunch Special Pad Thai - Med Spicy with White Rice - $13.95. the food was plated beautifully and also came with a small salad, which was crispy and had a tang to it. The Pad Thai was also delicious. It does come with some blackened tofu (which has this distinct taste) so next time I think I'd ask them to take that out. However, the portions were decent for the cost and I quite enjoyed every bite. Customer Service: The ladies were so nice! They asked us if we were ready, graciously answered any of our questions, provided us the check and boxes almost immediately. They had a smile and a great attitude. Also, when we asked one of them to help us take a photo, she offered to take a few pics and even arranged us around for the best shot. She was so kind and I so appreciated that! Restroom: clean with two individual restrooms Payment: Unfortunately, they were only taking Venmo, Zelle or cash. However, payment was super simple. My coworker paid the bill and I just venmked her back. The waitress just asked to see the proof of payment and we were on our way. All in all, great restaurant. I don't mind coming back and trying out the different dishes! Very warm and welcoming place. ”
“ One word - AMAZING! This isn't your typical Thai restaurant; they use fresh ingredients in nearly all their dishes. We ordered the Kabocha (winter squash) Curry with chicken - a first for me - and it was bursting with flavor. The presentation also impressed us. Another standout was the Tom Kha, served in a hot pot and featuring fresh mushrooms, a change from canned ones. I chose the Mango Sticky Rice and Pandan Crème Brûlée for dessert. Their use of black sticky rice elevated the mango sticky rice, making it even more delightful, complemented by the sweet and ripe mangoes. The crème brûlée was wonderfully light and perfectly sweet. The presentation of both desserts was exceptional. Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine at a reasonable price. Plus, parking is convenient, with a small lot and ample street parking available. ”
