    Entrance of Pad Thai
    Kelly L.

    This has been my favorite Thai spot in the Albany area for a long time and I am so excited for it to be back and just as delicious after having to basically start over. I find the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful and they are very responsive to any dietary changes needed. My only critique would be that I find sometimes the spice level to be inconsistent. I can order the same dish at the same spice level on two separate occasions and have significantly different experiences with the spice level. However, I will say the staff are even very accommodating with this and have given me the spice blend on the side to adjust to my level of preference. I have only gotten takeout from here and have not experienced dining in the space but it is always very clean and I love the first impression you get with the greenery on the wall right when you walk in! Excellent food, great people.

    Spring rolls

    I have missed this place so much. It just reopened after a devastating fire completely destroyed the building into rubble a little over a year ago. They rebuilt and the restaurant is so much bigger than it once was. Instead of take out or delivery, we went for dinner to check out the new digs. It's so bright and new. I was so happy to order my favorite apps and dishes. I even tried one of their specialty teas, Tea Lover. It was amazing! Oh how I've missed the spring rolls and chicken satay. Absolutely delicious. I order medium spice, which is pretty spicy! So good. I also ordered my favorite dish, shrimp pad Thai. I tried it with crispy shrimp this time. Very good but I prefer regular shrimp. Plenty for lunch tomorrow too! My dinner mate got the Tom Kha soup and a summer roll and she also got a specialty tea, Taro Thai Tea. I had a little taste of the tea and it was also amazing. This is a family run business and they are the nicest people. Super friendly and they love what they do. They are masters of their craft. Congrats for coming back stronger than ever!

    Extremely friendly service, very clean. I'm super happy this place is finally open again! Great food if a little pricey for takeout. Worth every penny though! Support local businesses like this!

    lots of appetizers

    Delicious authentic Thai restaurant. Many choices to choose from. The service is great and the food comes out quickly and hot! I ordered the medium heat and it's spicy but not too spicy. My nose ran a little, lol Small indoor seating. I highly recommend!

    Amazing

    Authentic Thai with fast service. The Som Tom or Papaya Salad was over the top good. Nested in a real Thai feeling setting.

    Large Pad See You Noodle
    Nette B.

    Yumminess! I was craving for Thai food. Me and my friend went here for my birthday. I ordered the Pad See Ewe. It is soo good! I cant stop eating It looks pale and the noodles are thin (im used to seeing the thick noodles) but it has the right flavor and sweetness. Also they can adjust the spiciness. Tom Yum is the best! I could eat it everyday. Love the spiciness and the sourness which are not too overpowering! It's a small place but clean. And they have very good service. Parking is small it can accommodate only abt 4 cars.

    Parang curry.lunch special, a bit skimpy on the protein.
    Otis M.

    Hadn't been here in 3 years and things have changed. What I remember as a simple but pleasant dining room is now 1/3 filled with crates of coconut milk and I was the only dine-in though there was a lot of takeout business. I ordered the now-$11 lunch special panang curry, and asked for it extra spicy with chicken and a spring roll vs dumplings. It was delivered with dumplings, not spring roll, no fork and no napkin. Also no inquiry as to whether I would like a beverage other than water. The server was pleasant but not into seeing if my meal was ok. I think they have changed to a takeout model and are not really promoting dine in any more. The curry was ok (and definitely spicy) but skimpy on the protein. See my photo.

    5 Piece Chicken Wings
    Kassandra L.

    One of the best Pad Thai noodles in the area! Lunch specials come with salad and either dumplings or a spring roll and are decent portions. The wings have the perfect crisp to them. Service is quick if dining in, there are only a few tables though. There is additional parking in the back if the front lot is full. Inside, there are some wall decor of Thailand and a Thai snack station by the register. We love going here!

    Chicken Large Pad Thai Noodle
    Erika V.

    The. Best. Thai food. Seriously the best we've found on the east coast between New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York, and Vermont! So far, we've tried and loved the masuman curry with tofu, chicken pad Thai, pad se ew with chicken, chicken satay, and spring rolls.

    Fried Calamari and Onion
    Jem B.

    At first we did not like this spot but we ordered wrong! The Tom Yum spices soup has a nice sour spice authentic flavours. The Larb Gai is drenched with lime, basil, kafir strips and lots of spice. I see why This is Daniel B.'s fave spot =P. As far as fried calamari and drunken noodle is not good-grease under flavoured (my other Thai spot where I'm a duchess is top around here). Anyways, we go here when we need specific dishes so give it a try!

    We liked the Spicy basil Gra Pow

    The food was excellent - far exceeded our expectations. It was flavorful and fresh…read more However our server's behavior is bringing the establishment down. He was curt and rude to us and we even heard him speaking rudely to other staff (possibly the chef). He even suggested that another party go elsewhere for dessert, because he didn't think what they offer is good (!)... When he came to our table to take our order he just stood there and said okay - not what can I get for you, or anything remotely polite. He also seemed to be in a hurry the entire time, despite it not being busy. It was easy to hear him questioning other staff in the back about their scheduling for the rest of the day, as if he was too important to be there. This restaurant would be nothing without the women preparing the food, and they should be respected by everyone working there.

    I went on Columbus Day. What a joke. I don't normally leave…read morebad reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I felt it was necessary. When we arrived, there was only one person a white man working -- hosting, serving, and handling everything. It took a long time just to get seated, and even longer to place our order. I had the Khao Soi Gai. When the food finally came, my chicken was cold and the noodles were hard and undercooked. I asked for it to be fixed, and while the dish came back warmer, the noodles were still hard. The server says i'm not mad at you i'm mad at the people who work in the back. He asked have you had these type of noodles before? Of course I did but not at this restaurant . His excuse was egg noodles tend to be firmer . At that point, I gave up on the meal. The server did remove it from the bill. Despite everything, when I paid, the server made a smart remark that came off as rude and unprofessional, the server made a sarcastic remark about the tip -- as if 20% wasn't enough. If I knew he was going to get snarky about it, I would've left zero tip ! I won't be coming back !

    Ate solo on a rainy Monday after shopping at Trader Joes across the street…read more Large menu with a few photos and a hand written board helped when deciding what to order. I would like to return to try other dishes. I ordered Jasmine Green Tea, a cup of Hot and Sour Soup, and Singapore Noodles. A pot of tea arrived quickly which pleased me. I often judge a Chinese restaurant by the quality and taste of its Hot and Sour Soup. This soup was excellent in comparison. The broth was a good balance of flavors. It was just spicy enough. It had fresh mushrooms and tofu. Five Stars for the soup. When I saw the check later, I realized it was included free with my lunch. The Singapore Noodles was a large portion, but disappointing in that I could barely detect the yellow curry. The rice noodles needed more sauce or spice! The chicken strips were tender. There were onion pieces as well as scallions in it. Three Stars. But I will return. There are many booths in the restaurant as well as a long row of connected tables in the center for large groups. The restaurant was clean. One booth had four men who spoke only Chinese to the server. That is a sign that the food is good here. Server was efficient and helpful. Parking is right outside of restaurant in a strip of businesses that incudes Saigon Spring, a favorite.

The server brought over a large dry-erase board listing their specials, which aren't on the regular menu--a nice touch. The decor gave classic Chinese diner vibes--not fancy, but comfortable. I ordered quite a bit, planning to have leftovers: a pot of jasmine tea, scallion pancake, soup dumplings, cucumber salad, and sautéed green beans. The jasmine tea was fragrant and exactly what I was hoping for. The dishes came out staggered, which I appreciated. The cucumber salad was a great start--refreshing and well-seasoned. The scallion pancake, though, was a bit of a miss for me. It was very thin and came out so crispy it was tough to eat. The green beans were crisp and full of flavor, and the soup dumplings were a delicious, satisfying protein option. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try more dishes!

The…read morespace is simple, with small tables and picture menus covering the walls, but that just adds to its charm. Everything is made fresh to order from the thick, hand-pulled noodles, dumplings, and scallion pancakes. Ordering is quick and casual. You place your order at the back right counter when you walk in (for dine-in or takeout), and the cashier also acts as your server. If you order a noodle soup, they'll ask if you want green onions and/or cilantro. After that, just grab any open table and relax. We ordered a variety of dishes. Appetizers: Scallion pancakes: (3/5) nice crispy pancakes with scallions. Dumplings with pork and leeks: (3/5) tender dumplings filled with pork and some leeks Spicy stewed beef noodle soup: (4/5) thick hand pulled noodles in a savory broth topped with vegetables like bok choy and mushroom and some tender beef Hot and sour vermicelli soup: (4/5) very tangy savory broth with tender vermicelli noodle and ground pork. Medium spicy level Biang Biang noodles with pork: (4/5) their signature hand-pulled noodles are sautéed in a medium spicy sauce with pork. Overall this place hits the spot for an authentic Chinese meal without the glitz and glamour.
