    We had been eating seafood for a couple of days and stopped at this Thai restaurant for a change. Initially, we were a little skeptical but then we asked a local who was regular here and wanted to try it based on her recommendation. My actual rating is 4/5 but gave it 1 less because they charge extra for any veggies and the staff behavior was disappointing. Here is the summary of our experience there: 1. Ambiance 4/5: The place has a Thai-inspired decor and feels like you are transported to the South Asian country. Although the esthetic is a little dark, you feel refreshed, especially in this seafood town. 2. Service 2/5: This is where I was deeply disappointed. Our server Shannon was rude and anything we asked for, she made faces and gave us looks. This made our experience subpar. On top of this, they charged us $2 for adding onion and $2 for adding Broccoli 3. Food 3.5/5: The food was good in taste and the quantity was great. The portion was so big that I even took it home and had it the next day. One caution though, there are not a lot of vegetarian options on the menu. The only one I saw was Rama Garden Noodle so keep your hopes low if you are looking for veg options. a) Panyang curry was good in taste 4. Value for Money 4/5: I initially thought the place was on the higher side but looking at the quantity, I feel it is reasonably priced In summary: The Good: 1) Ambiance 2) Great reviews from locals 3) Panyang curry 4) Great portion sizes Not So good: 1) Staff behavior 2) Anything changed was charged extra for any changes

    Food from Heaven. Tom Kha soup, delectable. Chicken Pra Ram, delish. I got takeout but the restaurant is adorable. Walked right past my order which was stored in the foyer. Was redirected by a friendly, smiling hostess. Great experience. Will become a regular. My only complaint? For $7 soup, fill my cup, please. (It was so good)

    Great food! I am still dreaming about the Thai green curry - it was sooooo good. And vegan - no fish sauce. I miss it! Drunken noodles were very good. Decor was casual and clean. Service was great. Would definitely return.

    I am not a big Thai food fan, but the rest of the family loves it..but I was so happy with my sesame chicken. I had the rice berry rice, which was a fun alternative to white or brown rice. Such a friendly place. Happy Thai!!

    Fried tofu

    The tofu is great appetizer- maybe consider the cucumber sweet and sour sauce - better than the peanut dipping sauce. The basil chicken - is ok- maybe more flavorful can be better- less watery juice. The berries rice is excellent

    I was in the mood for Asian food so I thought I'd give this simple and unassuming little restaurant a try after seeing favorable reviews online. We dined inside, the restaurant was clean and several tables had customers that were enjoying a meal. What a great find!!! The food we had here was some of the best food I've ever eaten! We started with something called "golden bags", it was an appetizer that I had never heard of before, but I thought I'd give it a try - a mixture of corn and diced chicken wrapped and fried in a spring roll wrapped. it was served with a cucumber sauce which was very tasty. But the real stars of the show were the two fried rice meals that we ordered - Drunken fried rice and Mekong fried rice!! Great flavors, large portions of food, a good amount of meat in each dish, and some of the freshest and best vegetables I've had! We couldn't have been happier their food! I wish I could give this business a hundred stars! Give them a try if you're in the area. I know I'll be stopping here again the next time I'm in the area!

    General Thai chicken

    In a vacation town know for its seafood it was nice to find some good Thai food. Service was fast. The crab rangoon was yummy. For my entree I decided to try something I hadn't seen before at a Thai restaurant. The General Thai chicken was pretty much what I expected. Basically a more elevated version of General Tso's chicken. The chicken was crispy and the sauce was flavorful. I would have liked if there was a little less sauce better but not a big deal. Give them a try if you want a break from all the seafare in the area.

    Awesome place! Stopped here on our way to Boston, and we were so happy we did. Ordered the chicken wings, Mekong fried rice, shrimp pad thai, beef khao soi, pad see ew and panang curry. We thought everything was fantastic, except for the pad thai - I found it too sweet. But maybe it's just my taste, because my sister liked it. Place was clean, server was very kind. GO!!!

    (Chicken) Pad Thai
    Crystal C.

    I have one "go to" Thai place in the Portland area that I frequent specifically for their unmatched Pad Thai... until now. Mekhong's pad thai was fried just enough so the noodles were almost caramelized. Extra sauce graced the bottom of the tray so every bite of noodle could be rolled around and equally doused. The appetizer tray was fantastic! I loved being able to enjoy a little bit of everything without paying an arm and a leg. They included all of the right condiments/ dipping sauces without me even asking. Having those really makes the dish! I could drink the peanut sauce for the satay out of a cup. It's so darn good! Parking was easy. Pickup was hands-free. Payment was all done over the phone (COVID times). I will 100% return here if I find myself in the area again.

Perfectly cooked noodles and chicken, flavorful, simply delicious, Decor and ambience are beautiful. Friendly attentive service. Lots of off street parking.

We all gos our drinks and placed our orders in and my daughter and mother in law got their food. Papaya salad and chicken skin. The chicken skin was amazing especially with the sauce. Really enjoyed the sticky rice which looks hard but isn't. I ordered the Pad Kra Pao with pork but Pho came in and I told them we didn't ordered that. Then an order of crab Rangoons came which we didn't order and we list let it sit on our table and about 10 min went by and we decided to eat it since I was getting hungry. I sat there for about an hour waiting for my food then the owner came out to show me what she wrote down and we crossed everything off that came then she said it would be coming out. Another 20 min pass and they deliver my food which was wrong again lol... I laughed it off because I know they're trying but I didn't send it back since I was getting hangry. All the food was great, they just need to get a better system from taking orders and getting those orders to the chef and brining the items to the correct table. To top it off, she gave us our recipe and that was all wrong as well. Like I said the food is amazing just getting what you ordered was the hard part. I hope to give this place a try but not sure yet.

For an app we always end up getting the spicy cashews. Simple yet delicious, the perfect little bite to wet your palate and start off your meal. Boyfriend's go to dish here is the red curry soup with tofu. Definitely spicy from the red curry yet a little bit sweet and creamy from the coconut and chock full of veggies. Always a great option especially on a cold day. I've found that my favorite thing to get here is the beef khao soi curry noodles. I've had this dish a handful of times now and it has been consistently good every single time I've had it. The coconut curry sauce is delightfully spicy, the pickled mustard greens add a nice tangy touch and the braised beef is ample and perfectly fall apart tender each time with hardly an ounce of fat on any given morsel of meat. This is really just a great spot for modern Thai cuisine that the Seacoast is fortunate to have.

It's not authentic Japanese, it's an interpretation of Japanese by Chinese workers and Cooks. Also, Chinese service isn't great and the waiter here isn't attentive and a bit too casual for my taste. The food itself is just acceptable, and for the price not great. The atmosphere also still is pretty weak, and the restaurant is small. It's sort of almost like a hole on the wall. On the West Coast, I've eaten at over 30 authentic Japanese restaurants, and for those of you who aren't Japanese restaurant or sushi aficionados... This food is probably fine. If you know we're good, Japanese food is, don't come here and frankly you may need to drive to Boston to get it.
