    While in Jacksonville , I was invited to this restaurant during a Yelp elite event . Exclusive party pass elite received a complimentary Thai iced coffee or tea and one appetizer so while they enjoyed the freebies , I soaked in the ambiance. We ordered the panko shrimp to try as well and it was really good. Lightly breaded and crunchy and served with a side sauce. Because we had eaten earlier , we chose not to order dinner as well. I am not a fan of the Thai tea at all, a hard pass for me but I'd come back for lunch or dinner to try other menu items and desserts. As a Yelp elite I would say this was the least favorite of all the events I have attended based of the pairings and offering.

    Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodle)
    Kate C.

    There is a new contender for my favorite drunken noodles! I am always on the hunt for good drunken noodles and this is definitely one of my new favorite spots. They also have a great selection of Thai street food, much of which I haven't seen locally here on menus. I definitely want to go back and try more of that! The drunken noodles were just my taste test and they passed. Also the Thai coffee is amazing. The service is also spectacular. They were helpful in guiding thru some of the street food options and more than happy to share knowledge. It's also such a cute place! It's small and cozy, and the day we were there the music selections was spectacular. A lot of like beach boys and similar.

    Red Curry
    Keshia K.

    I love an authentic Mom & Pop shop. This place is located in the Deerwood area it's a hidden gem. The vibe inside is it's a local favorite as it serves the area. The Thai food here is made to order served hot. I ordered the Yelp specials first Spring Rolls & Thai Tea. Both delightful. The spring rolls were the best I've taste in a long time. I also ordered the red curry to give the menu a try. It is nicely flavored with a spicy kick for mild spice order. This is sure add to my list of Thai places I'm Jacksonville.

    Thai iced tea
    Briana N.

    Such a cute restaurant, and looks like it would be a great date night spot! Not only that, but the workers are so friendly and the food comes out so quickly. The thai tea was so delicious, I wish my cup was at least two times bigger, especially because it felt like most of the cup was just ice. It had the signature thai tea flavor that came through pretty well, but I loved that it wasn't too sweet. The gyoza were really crispy on the outside, and super juicy on the inside. I also really loved the sauce that it came with. And the pad se-ew was really good too. I love that the spice is customizable! Although I've never really had spicy pad se-ew before, I got the level 3 and it was the perfect amount. The chicken was kind of dry though, I'd probably go with another meat next time. My only complaint is that the serving sizes are definitely on the smaller side.

    Came here for lunch and it was absolutely delicious!! We got the pork gyoza to start and then I had the drunken noodles. I'm not a big big fan of spice but can deal with a little so I got it mild. It was the PERFECT amount of spice!! My husband got the Panang Curry and he really enjoyed it. The Thai Tea was really tasty, I would get it again! The gyoza was perfectly crispy. We really loved this spot and how intimate and cozy it felt! Our server was super helpful and attentive.

    Penang Curry
    Jennifer B.

    Came for a Yelp Event, stayed for lunch! Inside is beautifully decorated. There are also 2 tables outside. Server was very attentive. Food came out in a timely manner. We ordered lunch and my son ordered dessert. I had the Penang Curry. So delicious! All spices were perfectly balanced. My husband ordered the drunken noodles. He also loved it. The sauce was so good and the beef was perfectly cooked. My son really wanted the cocoanut jellies. They were absolutely beautiful! I didn't want anyone to eat them! They were a really nice texture, more firm than Jello. They were cocoanutty and not too sweet. We will definitely be back!

    GUAY TIEW RUA NEAU [ THAI BEEF BOAT NOODLE SOUP ]
    Kia R.

    Absolutely love this place. Was my first visit, but I intend on coming back every time I visit. I've always wanted a place like this in Tampa. It has such a better menu of classics that we know here but also classic from Thailand. The Guay tiew rua neau was sooo good! The broth was rich but also balanced with the spice. It got busy during lunch so definitely keep that in mind. You also cant go wrong with the Thai tea. Loved it all.

    Came here for a Yelp experience and had to get a meal. Thai is one of my favorite cuisines and this place does great with the flavor and service. The food came out fast and hot. They are also so friendly and accommodating. The decor inside is so comfortable and pretty. Its a small to medium space with about 6 tables but comfortable enough! The pad se ew is a 5/5 for me. The portion is good, the taste is good and it came out fast. A great spot for Thai food. Will be back

    Located in nice shopping plaza- good parking. Well decorated with tables for eat in. Greeted warmly and seated - ordered the chicken / mixed vegetables and green curry chicken(ordered on low spicy side) and had a nice little kick to it. Fresh and hot. Good service and easy to box up leftovers. Will be back.

    Thai Fries
    Allison C.

    We dined in on a Friday evening. The service was exceptional and speedy. We split the chive cakes and the Thai fries which were both good. The fries were very crispy and were served with a delicious peanut sauce. The chive cakes were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. For entrees we opted for drunken noodles with tofu and chicken pad Thai. Both were good and had plenty of sauce/veggies. We got 2/5 spice which we felt was pretty mild but had good flavor. We would dine here again.

    Thai Tea
    Bethany R.

    This some of the best Thai food I have ever had. I got the panang curry with beef and the depth of flavor in this dish was something else. The beef was a little over cooked but didnt detract from the over all taste. I also got the wings which were nice and crispy. The sauce also had a nice balance of savory and sweet. The workers were so nice and our food came out quickly. This place is on the smaller side you could only comfortably fit about 4 people to a table. Overall a great experience and I would definitely come back.

    I cannot say enough positive things about the ambience of this restaurant. It feels like your dining with relatives when you're there and it's just so quaint and inviting. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We came for a Yelp event but stayed for the delicious entrées. After lots of deliberating, I ordered the Krapao Moo Krob + Kai Dao. It was delicious, but the pork was a little on the salty side, which is often the nature of ordering crispy pork in a dish. Because I went with two other people I also had the pleasure of trying their entrées, which were both so good. I would absolutely recommend coming here and I know I'll be back for sure!

    I've wanted to try this thai food place out, and I finally went here for dinner with my yelps friends :) I ordered the pad sea ew with beef and it was freaking delicious! The noodles were bouncy and chewy and the flavors were packed with the beef and a little bit of the veggies. I love pad sea ew and this place is it! I think I've found my place for this dish! I also ordered their zap wings and it was good! Juicy, crunchy, and moist. The chicken was not dry, it was perfect! Their thai tea was good too. I also got to try the chive cake and it was yummy! Overall, everything was on point! Definitely will come back here again for thai food. Delicious! Hughly recommend.

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.
