She brought out a few different teas for us to smell and was really helpful and informative. We drank our tea there and she offered a second steep, milk, honey. It was a really nice experience and I wish they had a shop closer to home, but I've already ordered more of the tea that I had, Jasmine green tea, which was high quality and quite fragrant! Will be back!

I am a big tea person, but also don't know a lot about different varieties and want to try new things. I figured it would be OK to ask questions in a tea shop. I just wish that staff was a little bit friendlier to people like me who don't know what they're coming into order right away and need a little bit more time to ask questions and figure it out.

While living here, i always shopped here just for the meats. I found them to have the freshest…read moremeats in town, and always great prices. Most often i would bbq my meats on my grill, but at times i would try something different and they were always so helpful in telling me how best to prepare something.

I am speaking for the meat market. I have purchased meat here and they have great deal on their…read moremeat. The meat is seasoned well asada beef, asada chicken,and pork. This last time I was going to purchase 3lbs of seasoned beef and 3 of seasoned chicken. These were posed with a sign saying 10lbs for 50$ taking 3lbs i figured cost was 15$ for Asada and 15 for chicken. when I went the register it showed 29.99 I asked why they said if you dont get the special then you pay full price. I left them with their meat I am glad as I stood waiting for that total watching 3 larg flys in the meat case. Sadly I won't be shopping for my meats there anymore.

Effective results in a short amount of time!!…read more I am so grateful to finally be pain free and have the freedom to not only resume my active lifestyle, but to also be able to go about my normal daily routine. For the past 8 months, I struggled to heal from lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) and a neck joint that was out of place creating immense neck and upper back pain. Prior to being treated by Melanie, I was beginning to fear that I may never return to my prior level of functioning. I couldn't remember what it was like to turn my head without severe pain. I had resigned to the fact that simple tasks like running the vacuum or preparing a meal would always equate to pain. I had sought relief through physical therapy, massage therapy and chiropractic care- trying each healing modality independently and consistently, allowing time for my body to respond to the intended care plans. My pain level would decrease for a few days, but never for more than a week at a time which was so frustrating. My massage therapist recommended acupuncture to identify and address the root causes. Within the first 2-3 treatments, I had significant improvement: Pain had decreased and range of motion increased! Melanie utilized a variety of techniques that allowed for consistent and lasting relief, week after week. I completed a total of 6 sessions and never regressed during or after the treatment plan (this review comes two weeks after completing the care plan and am still feeling great!). I am once again able to workout and enjoy activities I had been avoiding for months because of pain. I am so grateful for the gift of Melanie's expertise and compassionate care! I loved that she has the dual experience as a specialized nurse and acupuncturist; I feel it lended to a comprehensive approach to treatment and a deep understanding of the human body.

I will never go anywhere else for Thai in this area , not willingly anyways. Be careful of spice level. The chef here truly hits the Thai level spices. I ask for medium but am always dying half way in. If you can't handle the heat, ask for zero. Don't mess around. We have yet to try the whole menu but it's hard to stray from our favorites: - green curry - panang curry - pad thai - pad kee mao (drunken noodles) - beef salad (loooooove this with some extra rice on the side - super saucy and can get really spicy. Highly rec if you like that funk from the fish sauce) The ambiance is definitely take out vibes. Lighting is very bright and fluorescent but clean. I can't praise this place enough!!!

The gentleman told me he had a full menu for me to review, and I was able to look through it. The entire restaurant was very clean, and well maintained with beautiful decorative art, and clean floors, windows, and doors. The gentleman working the front gave me so many options to choose from, explained the entirety of the menu, and even gave advice on which dishes to choose from based on my flavor pallet. He was very informative, patient, and so helpful in choosing my first tai experience. The fried appetizers, wonton and dumplings were so crispy and fresh. The filling inside both was fair, and the sauces given had a wonderful flavor. The pad Thai was perfectly spiced and very filling. I do wish the pork itself was seasoned prior to the sauce, and maybe it is, but it seemed a tad bland with the sauce on top! Great prices and great portions. I do highly recommend you come try this place! They had so many great options including drinks!
