    Shrimp & Chicken Fresh Spring Rolls
    Helaine R.

    This was our first time at this restaurant. It was a Friday lunch and business was brisk. We were seated immediately and staff was welcoming and friendly. Libby was our server and she was did a fantastic job. The food was very good. It was a huge portion of Lemon Grass Chicken. Chicken was cooked perfectly. The Fresh spring rolls seemed pretty meager. I would have liked more filling. The staff seemed to know a lot of their customers and that speaks volumes to their service.

    I have to say that I was really impressed with the ambience of this restaurant. Having been the first time here did not know what to expect but walking in the decor made you feel comfortable at ease and as if you're in a fancy establishment. The wait team was excellent; we were seated immediately next to Bamboo trees to give us a little privacy, which I thought was nice. Our server whose name I wished I had gotten was excellent. She was so friendly, bubbly, and very knowledgeable of the menu. The drunken noodle was very good! However, I will say that their level of heat too really was more of a 3+! I am so glad that my aunt and I both said no jalapeños because I don't know how difficult that would've been been. It was very good with flavor. The spice took me to my limit and the chicken was great. My uncle had a pad Thai, which she said was good but after sampling, my aunt's drunken noodle wished he had gotten that instead. Overall, this was very much worth the price for what we got in the service we received. Next time in the area, I will definitely be back.

    Delicious food! Had both The Amazing and Red Curry with chicken as the protein. Nice clean atmosphere and spacious seating. Great presentation. Spice level 1-5. I had level 3 and it was pretty mild. Highly recommend for tasty Thai.

    Crispy Blue Crab Rangoons
    Didi N.

    One of my cousin's favorite Thai places and she wanted to come here for dinner while visiting! The place is very clean, nice modern feel, and staff was so friendly and welcoming! Our server had great customer service and always checked up on us! We shared all the following: Crispy Blue Crab Rangoon's: 6/10: really good but it was pretty much all cheese and no crab meat. A little disappointed but nonetheless, it was fried to a nice golden color and crispy. The flavor was delicious and the cream cheese was infused with curry flavor. It came with a sweet and spicy sauce. Drunken noodles: 6/10- we asked for level 3 spice and could not taste any spice at all. I asked for some chili oil to spice it up. Their Drunken noodles entree consisted of rice noodles, garlic, eggs, bell peppers, jalapeno, fresh mushrooms, cashews, scallions, sriracha, and Thai sweet basil. My cousin said it's good but not enough basil flavor. And I agree, there's no punch of flavor in this dish and it's missing the basil flavor for sure. Crispy duckling specialty: 7/10 - while it is crispy, after it sits in the brown sauce for a while, it gets soggy. It's still really good in my opinion and has a lovely flavor. It wasn't as crispy as most ducks I've tried but I enjoyed the savory brown sauce. The duck came with sautéed assorted vegetables in the same sauce and steamed rice. For $32, I wouldn't pay for this again. It's not super amazing for me to buy again at that portion and price. Panang Curry with beef: 6.5/10 - We asked for level 3 spicy level and got no spice all. The curry came with peas, corn, carrots, potatoes, bell peppers, and onions, Thai sweet basil, steamed rice, and crushed peanuts. The curry was just okay but the consistency of it was good. However, there were only two small potatoes in the bowl. Charging $19.50 for this entree is pretty steep. I don't think it's worth getting it again. Our server was quick and made sure we had everything we needed! I really also like how open the restaurant is! I love spacious restaurants and here it was a good size. The portion sizes were meh for the prices. I wouldn't go out of my way to dine here but if I'm in the area, then definitely!

    Chicken Pad Thai
    Trang V.

    We came here for our early Valentine lunch date. Got here right when they open and it was pretty empty for a good hour. The servers are great and attentive. We got our order on time. I had the typical spicy chicken with added veggie pad Thai. The chicken is very dry, overcooked and hard to swallow. The veggies are great, plentiful and flavorful, the tamarind sauce is good but could use a little more salt. Overall, I like my husband's Drunken noodles dish more because it has more flavor and the chicken is more edible than my dish. Compare to my previous experience, I would say I left a bit disappointed. Although the service is great, I would like my food to taste as good as what I'm paying for. Also, the portion has gotten a lot smaller, $14 for lunch per plate.

    Visited again to try their crispy duck. Large portion and very tasty. Also shared the appetizer combo and sticky rice with mango with a friend. Service was also very attentive and friendly.

I can honestly say with all the times I have been there and it's more than I can count, never have. I had a bad meal! The food is always the freshest and it's always served piping hot. Their vegetables are just crunchy enough to know they're fresh but still have their flavor. Their portions are ginormous. You definitely get your moneys worth with the highest quality dinner or lunch you could ever ask. The service beyond stellar! Because I go there so much and they know me so well I don't even have to tell them what I want to drink they bring it automatically. They truly treat their customers like family and that's a rarity these days! They truly care about their customers and they remember who they are. I listened to them with other tables and they take just as an active interest in them as they do Me. That's the sign of quality. I love the ambience because they always have fresh flowers and they're always dust free. So many times you'll go into places in the plants have dust on them not here. Someone truly takes care of the greenery and it is green! It's also very interesting to watch the TV screens as they do demonstrations of various Thai food preparation. I've been to numerous Thai places in Jacksonville. None can hold a candle to this one. Moreover, when I lived on the West Coast in California and I went to some fantastic Thai restaurants, they don't compare to this one! You can never go wrong here.

Prior reservations were made so we were quickly seated. The aesthetics of this place is so nice and the service is on the same level. The food came out quickly and I loved the portion sizes on everything. Everything we ordered was 10/10. The curry with the roti was a little spicy but still so flavorful. I ordered the veggie fried basil rice and spring rolls which were all amazing. My friend loved her ragoons and the sushi seemed to impress everyone who ordered.

We were bringing the whole family and hoping for a fun night, but unfortunately the experience didn't match the ratings. From the start, the tone felt off. When I called to make the reservation, the host immediately said, "We don't seat incomplete parties. We only wait 5 minutes or we give the table away." The policy itself is understandable, but the delivery came across harsh and unwelcoming. A more thoughtful approach like, "We kindly ask that your full party arrives within 5 minutes, otherwise we may need to seat other guests," would have felt very different. When we arrived early and asked if we could be seated sooner (with the rest of our party just minutes away), we were met with the same response again, which felt unnecessary given that there were several empty tables. Unfortunately, the service inside didn't improve. Our initial waiter was inattentive and at times dismissive. We had to ask for basic things like utensils and plates for shared appetizers, and the responses often came with an unwelcoming tone. At one point, when I asked for a plate and knife to share, the interaction became uncomfortable, and I ended up asking to speak with someone. The situation was handled poorly, and the waiter did not return. On the food side, I ordered the Massaman chicken curry at the lowest spice level, and it was still too spicy to enjoy. That said, most of my family did enjoy their meals, which I appreciated. Thankfully, a different waitress stepped in later and was kind and attentive--if the service had been like that from the beginning, the experience likely would have been very different. I also spoke with the manager, Jorge, who was receptive to the feedback and said he would address the issues, which I did appreciate. Overall, I was really disappointed given the strong reviews and the lively atmosphere happening around us. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I wouldn't return.

It looked like people came here with their families for special occasions. There was only one person working to cover everything from seating, take out, serving, etc., and he did an amazing job of staying on top of everything. He even took the time to explain to me that they recently decided to make their entire menu (save for the fried items) gluten free due to many requests they'd received from their customers. It was so nice to eat at a place that was so considerate! Their menu is definitely more fusion than authentic. I asked the server for a recommendation and he told me his favorite is the Curry Fried Rice, but it was a big portion, so I opted for his second favorite, the Drunken Noodles. I asked about the spice levels and asked for mine to be more spicy. It wasn't as spicy as I hoped, so I asked for a spice tray and added several spoonfuls of various chili flakes and peppers. My colleagues got the yellow curry and said it was basically flavorless, but they liked their Drunken Noodles. I'm thankful to have the gluten free option, but I was missing the essence of the classic/authentic flavor. Overall, the décor, ambience, and service was great, but the food was just okay.
