Review 75/365 Day Challenge review Came here on a Friday afternoon for lunch w my hubs & our babygirl. Celebrating my Birthday/along w our 15th Wedding Anniversary. 07.03.26 Was were seated right away when we got here. What we ordered ~ Lucky Gai is seared crying Tiger w a specialty sauce they have to dip the sliced up steak in. The marination for the meat was really yummy and tasty. ~ Beef Fried Rice tastes like every good thai fried rice should taste like. ~ Kow Mun Gai Duo with both Fried & Poached chicken in Mighty size. Came here specifically for this and boy i just say. It's pretty scrumptious. Definitely recommended. I crave for this thai dish every now and then. It's a thai staple dish to enjoy even everyday. Comes w a small chicken soup broth that's in a cute teacup size. Accompanied by 4 style if dipping sauces to your liking. The chicken Either it's the poached or fried was tender. LOVE LOVE how the dipping sauce for the Kow Mun Gai bottles was labeled which helped tremendously. ~ Thai iced tea tasted a bit off. Like it taste a bit plastic. Their thai tea seems to be in a dispenser behind the counter. I wonder if that had a role into the taste a bit. It's not as bad as where it's not drinkable but definitely leaves somewhat of a plastic taste after each time you Gulp the drink down. I was gonna tell Ryan but the restaurant was a tad bit busy during lunch. Along Ryan went in the back because another associated came and end up assisting with servicing the other guests along close out our tab to pay. Owner Ryan was really Social and awesome at greeting us along checking in occasionally if everything was fine and if we needed anything. He seems to be the only associate tending to all of the guests. Which was pretty good for about 6/7 other tables with a couple or a group dining in. They have a great amount of wooden table set up right outside the restaurant. Their restaurant is a Fox mascot which i thought was pretty cute. You see Foxes around the entire restaurant including in the restroom even Ryan had a cute button up shirt w the fox character on it. Lots of parking right outside the restaurant. They have a lot of daily deals/promos. Including student gets 10% off and Especially on your birthday/1 day b4 or 1 day afterwards, free entree up to $ 16 is free for the Birthday Celebrant. ONLY THING I didn't like with the atmosphere was there were a lot of flies in the restaurant. The entrance door to the restaurant was open and we were one of the tables near the entrance. It even bothered another guests and his kids. With flies flying around inside the restaurant was unpleasant and hard to enjoy your meals dining in because we were busy Choo~ ing the flies away. I even saw it on the kids and their parents face w the fly flying constantly around their table. If i could've deducted a half star on yelp. This would really be my concern and issue w our dining in experience.
The location is a little bit tucked away but definitely worth the find! Just a Mom and Pop shop with the nicest staff. Authentic flavors and great portions. The Thai tea is sweet and strong. Highly recommend if you go during lunch. Lol Pad see ew had great wok hei & fresh ingredients. The wings were crispy and delicious. Looking forward to coming back soon! Chang beer from Thailand is refreshing with the meal. I will have to look for this in the supermarkets!
Took me a while, but I finally found my new go-to Thai spot in oc (plus Hainan chicken!). I ordered the crispy Hainan chicken, edamame, dumplings, and mango sticky rice, everything was super fresh and well-seasoned. The sauces that come with the chicken are a standout (pro tip: mix them all together... you won't regret it). The tamarind sauce was also great on its own. Service was amazing; warm, welcoming, and it honestly felt like eating at someone's home with their family. The location is a little hard to find, but that just makes it feel like a hidden gem
I'm a big fan of this place!! It's located in an odd spot right under the bridge. When you turn into it, you'll be a bit confused, but it's perfect! Quiet location without a lot of foot traffic unless it's restaurant patrons. We always park right in front. There is limited seating and it's best to call for big parties a head of time. The chairs are cute and the interior is captivating; it feels just like home. Whenever I come, I order the Hainan chicken combo. It has the crispy chicken and the poached chicken with a bed of garlic rice or garlic noodles. You can also make your own combinations of sauces right next to that table. To compliment my meal, I usually order their beer or get the lychee martini. It's super cute and refreshing! The workers here are always polite and upbeat. They don't bother you and are very mindful of remind you your needs. Again, I love coming here. Can't wait to make the trip back!
Great location with lots of parking in front. There are plenty of seatings both indoors and outdoors. Good for big group. We came around 9pm and there are plenty of seatings. The service was fast and courteous. We got the yellow curry and the duo kow mun gai. Both were very delicious. The chicken is fried to perfection, not too greasy, but super flavorful. We also got 2 drinks, Thai tea and Lemonade Thai tea, tho they're alright in my opinion.
Coming in atmosphere was good aroma of spices fill the room as i make my order. Server came with water first and greeted me as i order the tom yum soup with rice food came out around 20min but came steamy hot. Restaurant was a little busy around 12. For sure can understand why, food came out great.
An absolute must!!! 100% authentic and 200% delicious. It's owned by a husband and wife, she runs the back of the house as head chef and he runs the front of the house. The wife is originally from Thailand and they seem to visit often, so not only is the food out of this world but he can tell you everything you want to know about it, from the protein that pairs best with a dish to how it differs from similar dishes in Asia. The ambiance is inviting, authentic, and a tad quirky, just like the service, but in the best possible way. They have patio seating also. 8 of us went so we got to try a little bit of almost everything. Every bite of every dish was outstanding. I couldn't stop eating my friend's yellow curry. I'm definitely getting that next time. I got the Foxy Kiss with chicken which was served with rice and a fried egg. Amazing! I honestly can't wait to go back. Our friends are regulars there, and now we will be too.
I did a cookie decorating class next door a few weeks ago with my wife and sister-in-law and I snuck in here to order food before the class started and the food was bomb. I can't remember what I ordered but my sister also ordered dumplings and I got a milk tea and it was so good! The restaurant offered a mini discount for the class next door and they even delivered it to us! Lol I call that excellent customer service. The restaurant itself was clean and nice-they had tables outside or inside to eat!
I feel like every family has their cozy go-to Thai restaurant that they absolutely swear by because it's what they grew up with. For my family, it's Jumpa Thai in Garden Grove, CA. While I love, love, love all the amazing memories we've made there, I recognize that you can have love in your heart for more than one Thai restaurant. I encourage everyone to get out of their comfort zone and continue to explore new spots. You never know -- you might find your new fave!!!! And if not, that's okay because you're still supporting small biz :^) So now onto why I sought out Luck Gai Cafe specifically -- one of my best friends has been complaining about his stomach hurting, and I suggested we get hainan chicken for dinner. It's like when your dog is sick and you have to feed them a "clean" meal like steamed chicken and rice, LMAO..... and naturally, it's what I thought my dawg needed. **Hainan chicken** We got a large poached chicken, and I personally feel like it was portioned for one person instead of two. I think I would order just white meat without chicken skin next time since that's my preference, but my friend really liked the dish and he's been here multiple times. It was my first time at Luck Gai and it made realize that I'm more into Chinese/Vietnamese Hainan chicken. I was bummed that I didn't get pickled cabbage or the usual sauces (chili-ginger sauce and ginger-scallion oil) with my meal. To make things clear: the sauces they offered weren't bad by any means. I was just looking for something different and this is my trivial take. I would probably still order the dish again in the future because the rice and soup were delicious. **Pad Thai** I think it's easier to order bad pad thai than it is to find good. It's just a fact of life. On our end, w ise got lucky with the Luck Gai's pad thai being absolutely scrumptious. The noodles were cooked au dente, sauce ratio was perfect, and shrimps were juicy. What more can you ask for? I would order this dish again, and probably also try other recommended items on their menu such as their pad see ew.
Was curious to try this place since it's very highly rated, but let's see how it compares to other hainan chicken restaurants from the 626... First walking in, it's a very small quaint shop. I was unsure what type of service this restaurant had, there wasn't a "please wait to be seated" sign or anything, so I assume you just order at the cashier and pick it up to your table or something. I was greeted by the cashier and was told I could sit anywhere since there wasn't really anyone in the restaurant. She handed me the menu and then... it was a long period of time whether I was suppose to wait for her to come and I order, or am I supposed to just go up there myself.... So I just went ahead and ordered at the cashier and everything, no big deal. It didn't take too long for my order to be prepared. She actually handed me utensils and my meal to the table, and handed my food as well. So I guess it probably was a sit-down service...? lol I got the mighty combo, which I wanted to try both the poach chicken and the fried chicken. I like how they offered a variety of sauces and listed which tasted better with what. I also liked how they added a small side salad and soup, which is a pretty nice set. Now onto the chicken, the rice was pretty enjoyable, I wish it was softer though. The poached chicken was kinda mid, nothing really too special. It also had cartilage in every piece so not sure if that was normal... The fried chicken tasted better, has more unique textures to eating it, but the batter itself gets boring the more you eat it, or at least it just tastes cheap. I ended up enjoying the fried chicken one more, but honestly for the quality compared to other places I had in the 626, it's not that comparable. It's probably just highly rated around this area, but the meal was just okay. In the end, service was pretty slow. I saw others waiting for their order and they feel like they were just dreading to be there waiting for their food. I ended up just going up to the counter and get my own to-go box and packed it. Service was pretty slow and questionable, but it's only one worker on the floor. They really should have another person helping her if this was a sit down restaurant.
A hole in the wall type place! Their restaurant in tucked in a narrow business plaza near the big street. They have outdoor seating that allows dogs which is really nice. My server was really friendly and was a jokester! I didn't catch his name but he was very friendly. Portions were decent and I liked that they give you a whole tray of sauce per person so you can have as much sauce as you want. The chicken itself was very clean tasting but I wish they had a skin-less option!
I had no expectations of this restaurant when I walked in and I was pleasantly surprised! The chicken dish was pretty good and it is a pretty big portion. The egg rolls were light and crispy! The tom kha was actually very sour (so depends on your preference of how sour you like it! Just to note, it wasn't spicy at all, even though we got level 2. The workers are kind and it's a nice and clean seating area!

Went on a Sunday , around past 7 pm. It was my first time there. I was craving for some chicken and I saw this place on google and yelp. The place is in a small strip of stores that is best reached by using gps (as one of the reviewers said) It's not that big, probably a good 20-30 persons inside and a few more tables outside. When I arrived, the place was probably 70 % filled. Almost all the tables were occupied. I noticed that there were 2 wait staff going around taking orders and cleaning tables. I waited to get a seat outside. Looking at the menu, the best go to would be their chicken combo. Honestly, the small or light version could be split for 2-3 persons and then, they could probably add a couple more dishes to try. But if hungry, just get the bigger one. When dining in, they would serve the chicken either style or both, with soup, rice, and their sauces. Dark soy, garlic and ginger, sweet and sour, and tamarind sauce. When having hainanese chicken, the meat should be moist and the sauce would elevate it. Their chicken was spot on. Flavor was there and it wasn't dry..... Unfortunately, i found the sauces ... specifically...garlic and ginger a bit too tamed for me. I would have preferred the traditional ... dark soy sauce with garlic chili and ginger... (Singaporean/ Malaysian) way.... but probably to each their own. The fried version was also moist and crunchy. Probably the sweet and sour would be the best bet for this.... The chicken rice was somewhat just okay. I don't know if it's the texture but I just didn't like it. The free broth though was pretty light and good. Overall, this dish is still a win. Another dish i tried was the Panang curry. Once you order, you're given the option for meat... i went for the shrimp.... The dish came in a bowl and a side of white rice... the sauce was thick and the flavor spot on. I couldn't handle the heat because of my condition, but I was happy to say that this was really flavorful... I realize that I should have ordered this dish with the optional add-on of fried chicken. Just because, the added medium sized shrimps in the dish were probably around just 5-6 pieces. In anycase, since I did went on a busy hour... the serving time was within range. I think i waited probably 20 mins for the first dish to be served (curry) then another 10-15 for the chicken. Price wise, i paid around 34 dollars plus tip. It was an okay meal. Will i go back? Probably but i wont be craving for it. I left at around 2030 and it seems that they close the kitchen at this time. Best bet, be there before 8 ,if dining in. Parking wasn't a problem Price wise, it wasn't that bad ... pretty normal read more
I've been here a couple of times. What I like the most is that they let you choose levels of spicy and that they leave a pitcher of water on your table so you can refill your cup. I ordered pad see ew, foxy kiss, and papaya salad. This time the foxy kiss wasn't as well done as the previous times. The egg was overcooked and the meat was more runny. The papaya salad and pad see ew was good. I wanted to try one of the desserts on their menu and they said they didn't have any desserts. read more

If you are looking for some big portion Thai food, then you have found the spot to eat at! The portions here are huge, and if definitely get you full. My friends and I did a family style here and got 4 dishes to spilt amongst each other, and I definitely recommend doing a family style over just one dish for everyone. The service too was really nice to us, and are very welcoming. In terms of food I definitely think their Panang curry was the star of the show here. The fried chicken is just so good, with the tender meat and extremely crispy breading along with a nice and savory curry was just yum. The chilies here too are fucking insane, it is actually insanely spicy and does not disappoint in that department. So if you need a bit of spice BE WARNED, since it gives you the kick you want.The foxy kiss and pineapple fried rice definitely tasted good, but I wouldn't say anything too special about it. The pad see ew imo was just too sweet for me, and had a very oily texture to it, and was definitely on the lower side of taste for me. I would say anything definitely say the main thing that brought it down for me was the flies and the bee flying around in the restaurant. I am fine with messy or dirty Asian restaurants since that's how you know it's good, but the constant nuisance of the flies since the door was open made it a bit more annoying. read more

Flavorful hainan chicken with lots of sauce option as well which i really liked.. Refreshing Thai iced tea is a must try . Amazing customer service. Overall good dining experience. read more
Service was impeccable. There was only one person working, but he was extremely attentive and friendly. We ordered the coconut shrimp, the small combo chicken light, and two different spice levels of Panang curry (my friends really wanted curry). We also had Thai tea and lemonade. The coconut shrimp were solid. As a fried chicken fan, I thought I'd love the chicken combo, but I didn't. The fried chicken was just okay--the batter kept falling off, so it felt like I was eating chicken and fried bits separately. The poached chicken was dry and bland; I wouldn't recommend it. That said, the ginger rice was delicious. The Panang curry was a bit runnier than I prefer and didn't really stand out flavor-wise, but the portions were generous. The drinks were a bit too sweet for my taste, but if you enjoy sweet drinks, they'll probably hit the spot. read more

Consider yourself fortunate if you dine at Luck Gai Cafe! Setting: Cute fox-themed decorations with cool wood furniture. Though the inside is not huge (maybe 8 to 10 small tables), there is additional outdoor seating. Note: The restaurant is not visible from the street. It's tucked away at the end of a weird-shaped strip mall beside some train tracks. GPS will be your friend. Food: We ordered the Hainan chicken combo and the khao soi. My wife got the latter dish, a yellow curry coconut noodle soup. It's not too common in most Thai restaurants in the USA, so we haven't had it a ton. But the Luck Gai Cafe version was fantastic. It was not quite a soup but not really a dry noodle -- a sort of wet, creamy in-between -- and totally worth it. I was hesitant to get the Hainan chicken because my grandfather was from Hainan and I grew up eating his amazing Hainanese chicken and rice dish (hard to beat homemade!). But since this was a signature dish, I had to try it to compare. So glad I did! Obviously this is the Thai interpretation, so it didn't quite taste the same, but it was still yummy in its own right. I got the combo, which has both the fried chicken (nice crispy Asian batter) and the poached chicken (tender and juicy). The only knock against it was that the rice was a little bland -- authentic Hainanese rice packs a punch of garlic, ginger, and chicken broth. Still, I enjoyed the whole combo. Service: This is probably the best part of Luck Gai Cafe. The staff here is so attentive and efficient. Plus they're so kind and friendly -- as an Asian growing up eating at Asian restaurants, I know that's a rarity. Overall: Aside from some minor quibbles, I thoroughly enjoyed my time and food at Luck Gai Cafe. While my true rating is 4.5 out of 5, since I can't give half stars, I'm happy to round up to 5 out of 5. I'm looking forward to returning. read more
Good "luck" "gai-ting" (getting) anything bad at this joint. Super cute place. Nice servers. Delicious food. We got the large hainan chicken with rice. It came with fried and poached chicken. So delicious. I love the sauces that came with it. My favorite was the foxy tamarind sauce with the fried chicken. Yum! The second dish we got was the Khao soi with chicken. Yum! The noodles came out just the way I like it and the flavors were out of this world delicious. The egg rolls could've been crispier, but it could be because I'm bias. I'm Vietnamese. So, the best egg rolls are the Vietnamese kind. I also ordered the lychee martini and the coconut juice. Oh my! So good! I would absolutely return for the same dishes and drinks. read more

I had a very disappointing experience at Luk Gai. I ordered the boat noodles specifically with no bean sprouts, but when the dish came out, the noodles were soggy and still had bean sprouts in them. When I pointed this out, instead of allowing me to switch to another menu item, I was told that they couldn't do that and was only offered 15% off. That felt dismissive, especially since the mistake was not on my end. also noticed after the fact that the prices on the receipt did not match the menu prices. I was charged $21.45 for Boat Noodles and $16.95 for the Duo Mighty Chicken, which is not what was listed on the menu. That is extremely concerning and misleading to customers. Between the incorrect order, exchange the dish and now questionable pricing, this experience was unacceptable. As someone who is Thai, I was really looking forward to authentic flavors and better attention to detail, but this experience fell far short. Poor food quality and lack of customer service made this a place I would not return to or recommend. read more

Good pricing and portions. Service was nice. Inside is small but they have AC so it's comfortable. Enjoyed our pad kee mao, dumplings and combo chicken platter. I will say the dumpling portion was a bit smaller than expected. I wasn't personally a fan of the rice here, the top portion was super dry while the under portion was mushy. The rice also had a weird taste to it that tasted like bamboo shoots were cooked in with the rice. Would've loved a ginger scallion oil to dip the chicken. The soup was very good, more sour than you'd expect. This place is a bit far from us but would be willing to come back and try again! read more

Got the large chicken rice (fried) and everything was delicious. Except the chicken was just covered with too much batter to compensate for a large chicken rice. read more
Meal aside, the garlic ginger sauce that does not come with the pad thai, but can be stolen from a family member with the gai fan is crack! Next, chefs in the back yelling at each other in Thai...check. And they are listening to Disney soundtracks...magical. Ok the food, couple orders of the lite Hainan gai fan, pad thai, and combo pad thai. E eryone was too hungry to eat family style, and chowed down. Official Chinese reaction: Good. Missing the garlic/oil/salt, but the different dipping sauces and Thai twist...GOOD! Pad Thai was a little sweet to our taste buds, but if it's authentic, then what do we know!!?? Egg rolls tasty and super fresh (read ...lava hot) i prefer the garlic ginger to dip vs the chili fish sauce. read more
I've been here twice now. Their speciality is their Thai style Hainan chicken, which I got my first time here. Objectively it was fine, but just not to my taste because I'm too used to regular Hainan chicken. I also didn't like the cream cheese rangoons - I think the flour was undercooked or something because it has a strange texture and kept getting stuck in the crevices of my teeth (not like between my teeth, but like the indent part on top). I did like the Thai tea though. Anyways, I decided to withhold judgment and give them another visit since maybe they were just having a bad day. This time, I decided to get Pad Thai instead since I didn't like the chicken rice last time. It started off better - the chicken satay was very good. The egg rolls were ok, but they did come out piping hot. I just wasn't too big of a fan of the filling. My entree did take longer to come out than it should've. I thought service was slow on my first visit as well. Maybe it's because the restaurant is a bit small - it definitely does lean on the cozier side. Our server (who I also think is the general manager) took full responsibility and gave us a generous discount for our troubles - which I appreciated. I could've maybe done with maybe like 75% less dad jokes since I was already getting kinda irritated that my food was taking long. Like 1 dad joke I can awkwardly chuckle and fake smile at, but it just gets to a point where it's too much. When the Pad Thai finally did come out, it was pretty good though. A little on the sweet side, which might turn some people off, but I liked it. All in all, my experience here has been kinda iffy so far. But the prices are very fair and they have weekday specials. Mondays in particular have pretty good deals. I personally wouldn't come back by choice, but my coworker likes it here so I feel like I'm going to keep getting dragged back. read more
Our Yelp search took us here on a Fridate. Started off with mild papaya salad that prepared our palate for more Thai goodness. Loved the creamy seafood tom kha and it went so well with the huge serving of house chicken fried rice. We specifically ordered mild on all the dishes and everything came out delicious!!! My husband thoroughly enjoyed their popular "mighty fried chicken" which is a chicken katsu spin: so tasty he didn't need to add any sauce to it. Wrapped up this fantastic dinner with butterfly pea sticky rice with mango, lychee martini and Thai tea. Service is fast and friendly. Mindy is such a nice host, making the rounds to ensure the customers are having a nice meal. We will certainly return to try their noodles and panang curry as it seems so popular in other tables. The resto got very busy around 6pm so come early. We noticed too that there was quite a lot of take out/pick up activity. We're happy to add another glowing review for this Thai restaurant! read more
So the pad se ew tasted fine, although the container was slightly smaller than I was expecting. Now I did get veggie pad se ew, and ive never had it with shiitake mushrooms in it and those were good. However, I didn't love the butt of the cabbage. Just not something I like in a dish. The restaurant is cute. The location is a little hidden but what can you do. read more

Chicken, Chicken, Chicken, Chicken, and some more Chicken. Luck Gai's crispy chicken is so good! It has great texture, juicy chicken and perfect to eat with their Thai Curry, and by itself with the Ginger Rice. Then they offer you 4 delicious sauces to eat with the chicken, and each one has their own yummy flavor profile. Right now, my favorite is the any of the three curries (Green, Yellow, or Panang) with their crispy chicken. Service is excellent. Food is great. Hidden gem at the end of a shopping plaza. Thank you Luck Gai Cafe! read more
Lunch Had lunch with the boys, since we were all around the area. We ordered a bunch of food on the menu with the intent to eat them like tapas. Ordered the mighty combo, half fried and half boiled/ steamed with fried rice. Add an egg on top to make it more mighty 5/5. We ordered the beef larb, it was probably least favorite 2/5. Flavors was there, but the problem with beef is that when cooked, it leaves dried oil. Also I like larb with either chicken or pork more. Next we should have gotten the fried chicken larb. We ordered this crab curry dish 5/5, definitely the highlight of the dishes. It came out looking like fried chicken thighs, but you when you bite into it you can taste the crab and curry sauce. We also ordered the spicy fried rice with beef and egg 4/5. Service was good, we sat outside as we had my friends dog. Definitely a gem in that area with limited Thai food! read more

Good food and good value. They're known for the hainan chicken but the other foods we had were also good, especially the fried soft shell crab is probably my favorite in any Thai restaurants. There was 4 of us and we had the fish panang curry, mighty combo, pad see ew, and soft shell crab. read more

All the food came out really fast and flavor was pretty good for all. My favorites were the pineapple fried rice and the larb! I think the drunken noodles were a bit too heavily sauced than usual standards. We also got green curry which was pretty good flavorwise. I think most things were a hit and flavor was good except for the drunken noodle. The staff energy was a little too much for me but I appreciated the intentions! Also we came in thinking it was going to be an Asian run establishment (from the looks of it, it was not) but we were still surprised by the good flavors of the dishes! So don't let that defer you. read more

The service and ambiance were pleasant. It's a small, kid-friendly spot, so if you're planning to go with a large group, I recommend making a reservation. As for the food--it was just okay for me, nothing particularly memorable. The papaya salad and chicken were quite sweet, and the combination plate didn't stand out. The steamed chicken was average, though the fried chicken was tasty. The Pad Thai was also on the sweet side. I really appreciated the friendly and attentive service, which was the highlight of the visit. The 3-star rating is mainly due to the food. read more

I like that you can choose half fried half poach chicken. They give you an array of sauces to choose from. The pad Thai is good too and they also have pickle chili if you like it spicy. Service is fast and attentive. The place is nice, quiet and pretty cozy for a brunch date. read more
First impression this little hidden gem is a small Thai business in a small little corner of a plaza. We order takeout but the owner and employee were super friendly and welcoming upon arrival and even started warming up to us while we waited for our meal. I thought that added a really nice touch to the first time experience. The pricing here is fairly reasonable and probably come back to try the other selections, but for today we ordered the mighty large combo, Tom Kha soup, and going green. Wow was it a pack of flavor. I really loved it and the Tom kha was spot on. The mighty large came with the hainan chicken and fried chicken with sauce on the side. The Tom Kha came with a side of rice. I can't believe I'm only finding this hidden gem now and planning to come back and support this small business as well! read more

The mango sticky rice was good but could use more coconut cream. I like it with a lot of coconut cream and this one didn't seem like it had any at all. I love the blue rice though. read more
What a hidden gem we found in Orange County! The restaurant is small but cute and clean, with lots of fresh plants making the room feel cozy. Everything was served hot and fresh from the kitchen! We ordered egg rolls, the Kow Mun Gai mighty combo, the Mama Tom yum noodles, and the Khao soi noodle soup. Everything was delicious but I think my favorite dish was the soup. It's a curry soup and it had so much flavor! read more

Can always count on an amazing food, service and atmosphere. My favorite dish is the Kissy Fox aka Pad Ka Prow (beef). The only place that doesn't make it too wet with just the right flavor and seasoning. Thank you , Ryan for always being so gracious. Even when we roll with a clan of 8+. read more

I discovered this gem on TikTok, and it did not disappoint! My friend and I tried the Pad Thai, Penang Curry, and Tom Yum Soup, all of which were delicious and reasonably priced. To top it off, since it was their anniversary, the owners were offering a free small side for customers to try. The restaurant itself is small and cozy, creating a really intimate atmosphere, but with all the right vibes! read more

Is there an all white meat option?
Is there plenty of parking available?
Yes for the most part. Every now and then another business has a big event but even there there are still spaces available
Do they take reservations?
Not sure, probably not. They have a inside and outdoor tables. it's a walk-up counter to order food. The food is Good and Tasty. Worth going to, plus staff is very friendly ( couple owned ).
This place is listed today as having outdoor seating. Is it still available? If it is, is it covered or heated? How many people can sit there? / April 25, 2023
