Waiter immediately comes over to get our drinks order. When he returned, asked for egg rolls as appetizer. Then we ordered Pad see ew and Beef Kao pad. Egg rolls were so good! Four were perfect as an appetizer. The beef pad see ew was so good too. Had so much, enough for dinner later on. Hubby enjoyed his Kao pad. Almost finished it! Really enjoyed the food. During this time, two more couples arrived. And although we were done, they didn't come by to find out how we were doing. It seemed a little odd, but we patiently waited. Overall, would definitely return because the food was really good. The service, could be better.

It's small, probably 8 tables inside. The service is great & I was impressed with how clean it was. My cousin Cindy & I went in here for lunch. It was pretty empty, so I thought maybe the food would be only mediocre, I was wrong! From the start, our Tom Kar Gai was heaven! I also enjoyed my Thai iced tea. Next we ordered Massaman curry with chicken & I ordered Pad See Ew with Beef. It was delicious! I was a used to it being a little sweeter, perhaps a regional thing though. We had to take so much home! The portions were pretty good & enough to enjoy for another meal!

Crepe? An amalgamation of textures that likely shouldn't exist? Soggy mushy texturally just unappetizing and wet, the bottom of the container had a solid coat of water on it so everything inside was just mushy. Green curry, curry flavor good but that's where it ended for me. The tofu was totally mushy. Lychee juice, I love lychee but this tasted artificial and very watered down.

Our visit was a mixed bag of some highs and major lows. I'm not sure there was anything that wowed…read moreus to entice a return visit any time soon but if you find yourself here, I can at least recommend the massaman curry and pad woon sen noodles. The massaman curry here is insanely creamy and tasty, with a hearty helping of vegetables. We ordered it with tofu, which came in cubes of the soft, unfried variety. Paired with rice, this was a winning dish. The pad woon sen - a savory glass noodle dish - can also be ordered with one's choice of protein. We liked it well enough with the chicken, and found it to be well-seasoned. Our server brought us some hot chili sauce on the side, and the spice lover in me was only too happy to heap spoonfuls of it over everything. Our interactions with servers were...interesting. One of our servers seemed rather terse and cold, while the other hovered a little more than I would've liked. When he saw me taking out my camera, he reached in to take my fork. He used it and his bare hands to rearrange our appetizers, seemingly for the pictures. It was a raised brow moment for us, as was finding that our coconut shrimp neither tasted remotely close to coconut and that it was still frozen in the middle. We pointed this out to our server, who apologized and took it back. But instead of bringing out a fresh plate, it turned out they'd just refried our original pieces, even the ones we'd half eaten. Much as I'd hate to raise alarms for such a small and homely business, we couldn't help but wonder about whether it was sanitary to recook eaten food in their deep fryer. This restaurant has been described in lots of other reviews as a hole-in-the-wall, which feels true. While it's more spacious on the inside than it seems on the outside, there's a smallness and intimacy to the restaurant. The menu is also fairly short and streamlined to a few categories. There's no dedicated parking lot, but we were able to find free street parking without too much trouble.

I ordered takeout, and the food was ready within 20 minutes. The woman who handed me the food was really nice and welcoming. Great service all around. Here's what we ordered: crab rangoons, vegetable summer rolls, chicken satay, beef drunken noodles, duck pad Thai, duck lion city noodles, and a Thai tea. The crab rangoons were definitely the highlight of the meal. These were genuinely great -- crispy, creamy, flavorful, and just really satisfying. My family loved them, and I would go back just for these alone. I'm guessing they're even better fresh out of the kitchen. The vegetable summer rolls were okay. Fresh and decent, but I wish they came with more dipping sauce -- we barely had enough for three people. Would've liked some protein in them too, but they were still a solid starter. The chicken satay just wasn't it for me. It was on the dry side and didn't have much flavor, even with the peanut sauce. My sister and mom liked it, so I think this one comes down to personal preference, but I wouldn't order it again. As for the noodle dishes -- they were all just mid. The beef drunken noodles, duck pad Thai, and duck lion city noodles were fine, but none of them stood out. They weren't bland, but they also weren't memorable. I was hoping for bold flavors, especially in the lion city noodles, but that one especially fell flat. I expected a dry curry noodle dish and instead got something that tasted like a basic stir fry. Not bad, just not exciting. The duck in both dishes was cooked fine, but again -- nothing wow-worthy. The Thai tea was a miss. I could tell just by looking at it that it had too much milk, and once I tasted it, it was basically sweet cream with barely any tea flavor. Wouldn't get again. Overall, the service was lovely and the crab rangoons made it worth the trip, but everything else was kind of forgettable. I wouldn't say no if someone wanted to come back here, but I also wouldn't be the one suggesting it. Still, for the area, it's nice to have a Thai spot that's fast and friendly -- I just wish the flavors packed a bit more punch.

We didn't know that they sold Belgian chocolates until we arrived, and we thought that was so unique and a fun representation of the cultures of the owners. We felt right at home here, and Dirk couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful with suggestions. We were feeling adventurous and tried items from their authentic Thai specialities menu, and were so glad that we did. My husband tried the northern Thai style larb, which Dirk told us has herbs harvested from mountains of Thailand in it, and my husband loved it so much he declared it the best dish he's tried so far this year. We were happy with everything we tried, and the chocolate tiramisu was so good for dessert. You can't come here and not take some chocolate home!
