    Half full rice noodle boxes
    Joshua O.

    We called several times and no answer, but our kids really wanted Thai food so we decided to go order in person, as it was still 45 minutes from close and across the street from our hotel. When we arrived there was a sign that said "Pick up only. No dine in" The woman at the desk said, "We are too busy, I didn't have time to answer the phone." Looking around the restaurant, there were only 3 tables and 8 total people. She told us that we could place an order to go as they were a little backed up it would be about 20 minutes to get our food. 30 minutes in, she came and told us they had a "mishap" and the button on the rice cooker didn't work so they didn't have rice for our curry or mango dishes. She asked if they could substitute rice noodles in place of the rice, and we agreed. 55 minutes later, we finally got our food. After a quick, "Sorry for the mishap," we were offered no discount, no additional food, nothing. Sadly, the insult didn't end there! Once we returned to the hotel to eat, we found that the noodle boxes were half full at best (see pic). The green curry and fried rice were tasty, the drunken noodles were just ok, the mango chicken was underwhelming, and the mango sticky rice was "ok" per the kids. Was expecting a lot more based off prior reviews

    Losers. Arrived at 7:56 with a closing time of 8:30. Turned away a party of eight very hungry locals. Never again. Was told "my lobby closed at 8pm and look at the picture attached. Pathetic. The worst part was the waitress- you could tell she didn't care one iota at all- we didn't even argue- this establishment didn't deserve a dollar from us.

    Pad Thai to go

    This is mid-June of 2021. The restaurant still isn't open for dine in yet as they are understaffed, so we had our food to go. The pineapple fried rice and Pad Thai we tried were very good. I've had a lot of Pad Thai, and this is among the best that i have tried. Who would have thought that this was possible in a small-town Thai restaurant! Don't be put off by the slightly higher prices. You get a generous portion for your money. Each order could have easily fed two. Service was great, and the restaurant staff were very friendly.

    This place is pretty legit! Passing through on a road trip and needed some Asian food. I can only go so long on burgers and fries before I go crazy. They are only doing to-go orders because of covid. The phone number took me straight to voicemail three times, so we decided to drive over and put an order in. It took them 35 minutes and came out piping hot and yummy. The pad kee mao with pork was ok... not enough spice at a medium level maybe. Had fresh ingredients and good medium width noodles... not super wide. The winner of the meal was the pad garlic with chicken. I loved the blend of spices and the Thai basil really stood out. Highly recommend this dish.

    Green curry with pork

    Seeing all the 5 star reviews here, I was excited about getting some authentic Thai food here. When we walked in, there were a decent number of tables occupied. The wait staff were extremely friendly and nice, but perhaps they need more staff, because it took a while for them to get our order, and then it took about an hour for the entrees to come. The appetizer - potstickers - came out quickly. These aren't the traditional potstickers I'm used to that are made with flour and steamed/pan-fried. Rather, they stuffed thinner wonton wrappers and then deep fried the whole thing. They actually tasted pretty good, though, and weren't too greasy. My mom and I both ordered the pad see ew (wide rice noodles stir fried in a sweet and savory brown sauce). Unfortunately, it was so salty that we couldn't even enjoy it. It's very rare for me to send stuff back. When I asked if we could get some plain noodles to mix in and dilute it, the chef came out, apologized, and said she would recook our dishes with plain noodles. When it came back, it tasted so much better. My brother ordered the green curry, which was amazing. The broth was rich and flavorful, but not too salty. It's definitely one of the best curries I've tried. My dad got pad cashew with shrimp. It was seasoned well and everything was fresh. I wavered between 3 and 4 stars here, due to the long wait and the initial saltiness of the pad see ew. However, based on the curry, the fixed pad see ew, and the friendliness/helpfulness of the waitresses and chef, I chose to give 4 stars.

    Place was packed but they found a spot for me. I had heard the Lamb dumplings were great and they…read moredid not disappoint. I actually was standing at the front waiting to speak with someone. I was talking to the kitchen staff and told them that AI told me about the dumplings and to please hold an order in case I had to take it to go. Front of house Staff were great, the kitchen were guys amazing, and the place was clean The ppl I sat around were all very happy with their food. One couple lived in Bozeman and the other couple were from New Orleans. They both spoke highly of the place. Go try it. Call ahead. I tend to wing it and that's not the best way to go. I got lucky :) David

    We were visiting Bozeman as part of our Bachelorette Party and found Shan as an option for a dinner…read morespot. They had set menus for larger parties and we figured it would be easier on everyone to not have to pick their own entrees and also get a taste of everything. - PARKING - Large lot in the back that leads to the entrance door! - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - We checked in and got seated promptly as we had a reservation. It's dimly lit but the tables are brightened by small lamps. Since we had the set menu, we didn't need to order anything outside of drinks. They kept the dishes coming, until about the last entree and dessert courses. For some reason everything came to a standstill, so we sat there waiting a bit. Then when we were trying to check out, their system died so we had to wait longer for that to get rebooted. - FOOD - We had a HUGE list of food, and wow we were stuffed by the end! I did have a pretty big gripe with the fact almost all the appetizers and a few of the entrees had the same exact topping of cilantro, scallions, peanuts and sesame seeds - it got old after 3 in a row had the same garnish. Some favorites: - Sichuanese Beef Salad - Lazi-Ji Chicken Wings - Green Curry - Coconut and Pandan Tres Leches Cake - Kelly's Coffee Jelly - OVERALL - Besides the repetitive garnish, the food was overall enjoyable and definitely worth the price considering the portions were big, even with the set menu.

    I came here while on a Christmas Trip to Big Sky. I still think about this place. I don't know what…read moreall the bad reviews are about so I'd like to address my experience. People say their service is slow: However I experienced the complete opposite. We were using the bus system and let the staff know that we only had about 30 minutes to dine before the bus left. They were extremely accommodating. Within 5 minutes our food came out. Food: The food is amazing. Don't know whether or not it is "authentic" but it is great. We got the fried dumplings and it was super good. I also HIGHLY recommend the Pad Woon Sen. My boyfriend got another dish but we both loved the Pad Woon Sen by far. I will say I added chicken to my dish and wish they added a bit more as it was pretty scarce. Anyway, I have tried to find other Thai places that compare, but have been out of luck. Also, this place had HUGE portions. I eat a lot (like a pound of meat in one sitting) and this was insanely filling. One dish is good enough for two people. Price: *I am from Los Angeles so this may be skewed*. People are saying this place is expensive. I couldn't disagree more. I believe our check was around 50 dollars for 2 dishes, an appetizer, and beer. Not only that but the dishes were huge. This place has great value. I totally recommend this place. Not sure if something changed since December but I am excited to come back.

    Totally messed up our pick up order. I mean, half the order is not what matches the receipt…read more Especially the Thai eggplant basil..... if they got it right, there was only 1 piece of eggplant. Which makes me think they didn't. Instead it was full of beef and onions. Green curry was super salty... almost inedible. Everything else was good though. But speaking of salty, I'm salty we didn't get our eggplant....
