food was great. I definitely recommend the Nam Khao and the Drunken Noodles. Service was great and the restaurant had a very nice vibe. Oliang Express ( espresso martini ) was very good. Would recommend. read more

Rating doesn't change-- they're still amazing from my experience last year. Why it took a whole year to come back? Idk. *shrugs* This time we got: Pad Kra Pao, Pad Se-Ew (beef), Yellow Curry (chicken), and Thai Style Papaya Salad for dinner. We each had a different favorite dish out of the three entrees... Pad Se-Ew was mine (noodle head), followed by the Pad Kra Pao (perfect flavor, not too strong on the basil, egg fried just right), then the curry last (I prefer green or red more). The salad was good, refreshing. No spice whatsoever, but we knew that (one of the girls can't handle as much spice). The winner of our dinner? The Thai Tea Flight! I love the option of flights anywhere I go. It gives you the chance to try all the flavors you're curious about without committing to one that you may or may not like. Man... these were amazing. If I had to rank the flavors-- it was a toss-up between the Original Thai Tea and the Ube but since this is the battle of the Thai Teas... the OG gets a slight edge. Both freaking amazing though (we ordered full sizes of these after). Obviously Thai Iced Coffee comes next but coffee should be it's own category. It wins on its own as coffee. The Green Thai Tea came in last for all 3 of us, I believe. It's good, just not as good as the other three... and it's definitely more fragrant? Idk the right word for it. Anyway, I'd make more stops here just for these drinks alone now that i know how good they are. Staff was amazing. Friendly. Attentive. Restaurant still very aesthetic. Their plating of the meals? A+. It was a very good dinner. read more

The dude and I came here on 11/15/25 to celebrate a milestone I accomplished. We arrived about an hour before closing. We were greeted immediately and asked for a reservation as this place was packed! It thinned out about 10 minutes to closing as they were still seating people. Anywho, our server was ever attentive. As a vegetarian I miss kung pow chicken. And they were able to make Kung pow tofu for me. Which is probably the best hospitality ever!! They just had to check with the chef and it was a GO! The compound tofu was very flavorful. It wasn't mushy. The tofu was firm and all the seasonings paired well with it. The dude enjoyed his meal with the steak and purple rice. The rice was pretty good. I did not try the steak as I'm not vegetarian. But he really enjoyed it as it was butterfly pea rice. Our cocktails were delicious. Balanced not too sweet. It hit the spot. We were very impressed with this place and really enjoyed our time here all the flavors popped in every dish we had was delicious even the appetizer of the spring rolls. Very crunchy light and not greasy. Overall, this was a great spot to grab a delicious meal, date night, or celebrate. I would come just to come again definitely will be back. read more

Came here back in August (finally sat down to review) and I cannot stress enough how good the smoked pork belly is -- easily the standout dish for me. My only wish is that it came with a few more bites because it was that good. We ordered a variety to get a feel for the menu: papaya salad, smoked pork belly, panang duck, crab fried rice, mixed vegetable tofu, mango sticky rice, and Thai tea. Overall, the menu leans a bit outside of the traditional Thai flavors I'm used to, which made the experience interesting and different. The space itself is beautiful and makes it a great spot for a dinner date or a night out. The staff was also incredibly friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. I'm already eyeing the drink menu for next time Overall, it was a great experience and everything was beautifully plated. I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu--especially dishes with bolder, more pronounced flavors. read more

We were absolutely disappointed with our experience at this place. The service was almost nonexistent. At one point, we were honestly wondering if we were supposed to get our own drinks. We had Valentine's Day reservations for a group of six, and it appeared there was only one server handling all the tables. She also seemed to be the bartender. After she took our drink order, we waited over 30 minutes with no drinks, only to see her behind the bar making/shaking drinks. Another man, maybe the manager or owner, was walking around collecting payments, and another employee was clearing tables. We felt bad for our server but we were hungry and were already waiting for a long time. The food was overpriced for what we got We ordered family-style so we could share and sample different dishes, but several items lacked flavor, while others were overly sweet. They were small too for the price we paid. Our food was also warm rather than hot, which made it seem like it had been sitting in the kitchen for a while. :( The interior is cute though. But between the poor service and disappointing food, this place is unfortunately not for us. read more

I made dinner reservations here for 2 to end our day together celebrating my best friend's birthday. I arrived exactly at the time of our reservation. There was a large family group that waiting to get seated. After they were settled I was greeted and was taken to our table. My friend and both ordered a dish and app along with their tea flight! Food: Pad Thai, Panang curry and chicken satay. Whoa! Everything was DELICIOUS!!! The pad Thai had so much flavor the Panang curry was so creamy and had a kick of spice. The chicken satay came with a peanut sauce and the spiciness was a creeper. Everything was beautiful plated. I also ordered papaya salad Lao style mild to go for my husband. Tea flight came in these cute small glasses and presentation was so cute. Flavors: Thai tea, ube, green and coffee. The Thai tea, coffee and green were good tasted exactly how they should! The green tea had some coconut to it! The ube fell a bit short, had trouble tasting the ube flavor. The food was amazing! Our server was great; she was kind and attentive and the restaurant is clean and aesthetically beautiful inside. I would recommend and can't wait to return to try their cocktails and other dishes. Thankfully we arrived the time we did because around 6pm crowds of people started to show up and it was getting really loud. read more

We recently dined at this Thai restaurant, and the experience truly captured the essence of authentic street food. The egg rolls were amazing -- crisp, light, and perfectly golden with a fresh, flavorful filling. The satay was beautifully roasted with a deep smoky flavor, slightly charred in the best way and served with a rich, balanced peanut sauce. The minced chicken with basil was a standout as well, fragrant and bold with that classic sweet-spicy-savory balance, and just the right amount of heat. Each dish felt vibrant, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared while staying true to its rustic roots. The service and ambiance complemented the food perfectly. Staff were attentive, friendly, and efficient without being intrusive, and the dishes arrived hot and well-timed. The atmosphere strikes a relaxed, lively balance -- warm lighting, simple décor, and subtle Thai touches create a comfortable setting. Overall, it's a wonderful place to enjoy authentic Thai flavors with great service in a cozy, inviting environment. read more

Went with 4 people so got to try a variety of dishes and everything was so good. Very authentic flavors and well put together presentation for everything that came out.

I had low expectations and Satay exceeded them. The restaurant is small, cozy and the decor is cute. Everything we ordered was good. We ordered tofu spring rolls, drunken noodle, papaya salad - thai style and kaopiek. Spring rolls were one of the better ones I've had in town. They didn't skip out on the herbs like mint which most usually do. Yum! We ordered drunken noodles, but we think they gave us pad see ew instead. It was still good but wasn't drunken noodles. Papaya salad - the server gave us Lao style thum although we ordered thai style. We said we'd keep the Lao style platter, it looked good but the server insisted to fix the order. The thai style thum was good. The kaopiek was a chicken broth with meatballs. I didn't try this but my friends liked it. Overall, big portion sizes and we enjoyed the food. Although there were minor hiccups, the quality of food was there. I'd def return again with friends or my honey for a date night. read more

Satay Thai Kitchen & Bar - Spring rolls , pad see ew? - Thai Near Me - Fresno, California

A beautiful newer Thai restaurant near Chestnut and Shepherd. Very beautiful decor inside. We arrived as they opened and had a reservation, so no wait, and service was excellent throughout the whole meal. I tried the pad thai and the shrimp wrapper appetizer. My husband ordered chicken fried rice, as he is not a huge thai food fan but can do fried rice. It was a little fancy for him with big pieces of onion but could be remedied by asking for no onion next time. The flavor of the pad thai was pretty good, although I prefer a slightly sweeter sauce. The shrimp in the wrapped shrimp was large and decent but I wasn't a huge fan. Hard to tell without another visit and ordering something else on the menu, but my overall impression is the ambiance is great, service is great, but not my favorite as far as taste and flavor. Everyone has their own tastes so give them a try. read more

Enticed by good social media advertising but confirmed the food and place are legit! Decor is everything! Such cute vibes and a perfect place to have a nice dinner. Food was not only presented well but delicious. We asked for some hot sauce or something spicy on the side and the waiter brought out a few options which was nice. A bit pricey but I guess you're also paying for the experience. Another good addition to Fresno food scene. read more

We've been meaning to try this new Thai restaurant out for the longest time and finally made a reservation! As for the food, we loved the drunken noodles! It had just the right amount of spice. The crab fried rice was also delicious, the soft shell crab on top was a plus! The Crying tiger was yummy.. definitely something different but the way the beef was cooked was perfect and the sauce was so good! The portions are big, shareable. The star of the show was the dessert for me! Omg.. I HIGHLY recommend saving room for the banana brûlée! I will go back just for that lol Overall, I'm excited to return and try their other dishes on the menu.. Their restaurant tends to stay full and busy, we ended up making reservations through Yelp to avoid wait times. Ambiance was great! Packed, but not too quiet where everyone could hear your convos. Can't wait to come back! read more

made a reservation for dinner on a friday night. this is what we ordered and my thoughts- cocktails -lychee-tini -cucumber mule -both good! tapas -nam khao. one of my favorite dishes and it's done very well here. the only difference being that it's already portioned out on lettuce cups. -scallops on a shell. sooooo good. the cilantro truffle oil is delectable. -both were delicious! each tapas dish came with 3 pieces and it was not enough. i wanted more. chef specials -crying tiger. it was only okay. the beef was a little dry and overdone. the redeeming piece was the chili sauce which offered a kick and more flavor. -panang duck. the sauce and the duck was good, but it was missing something like more veggies. -overall, a little disappointed with this part of the meal as these were the chef's specials. the ambiance is lovely and the service was amazing. our server was attentive, friendly and handled our one cocktail complaint with grace. i would come back to enjoy the ambiance, cocktails and tapas. read more

With the hype and wonder about this new Thai spot opening in Fresno, I was a bit disappointed with the whole experience. We had a reservation for dinner time and unfortunately still had to wait quite a bit (long enough to walk around Walgreens) before getting seated. The service was apologetic and comped some drinks. I do like how the place looks. It's extremely modern and has a very nice slightly fancy but slightly casual atmosphere. A lot of customers were dressed up and dining. The food however was underwhelming. Maybe I was looking for something more traditional, but they added twists on dishes that convoluted the original flavors I was looking for. read more

SO. GOOD. HIGHLY recommend you make a reservation if you're thinking of coming here! Came here on a Friday night around 7:15 and it was about an 1hr and 15 minute wait. However, given that we were in no rush and were not too too hungry, the wait was worth it! The interior is super cute, making this a great date night spot or place to have dinner with friends/family! 〰 Scallop Half Shell (5/5): Great flavor, perfectly spicy; only con is I wish it came with more!!! I would order multiple orders of this, it was so gooooood. 〰 Pad Thai Tofu (4/5): A solid pad thai! 〰 Crab Fried Rice (5/5): Yummy!!! Fragrant, delicious, and the perfect rice dish to accompany everything else we got! The soft shelled crab on top was yummy! I would 1000% get this again. 〰 Panang Duck (1000/5): INCREDIBLE. The curry was so incredibly flavorful, the duck was juicy, and it is overall just a great dish. If you get any dish, I'd highly recommend this one. Highly recommend pairing this with a side of roti or their crab fried rice. SO. FREAKING. GOOD. I would definitely come here again!!! read more

A beautiful restaurant! The decor and aesthetic is stunning here, love the tropical like boho vibe it's giving. The order: we got the drunken noodle that was recommended by our server. It is absolutely delicious! Like really good! I haven't had good drunken noodle like this in a long time the last time in another Thai restaurant. Great amount of chicken (my choice of meat) , cabbage, and the Thai basil in the dish makes the whole drunken noodle so aromatic! It's a great portion as well, plentiful for two if not three people to share. We also got the Crying Tiger, which is tri-tip with a side of their butterfly pea rice and dipping sauce. Tender tri-tip, and rice cooked wonderfully. Lastly, we ordered the papaya salad, Lao style which is more pungent because of the fish sauce and the Thai version is more sweet with crushed peanuts. The salad was good and just the amount of spice level. They have a men and women separate single restroom for customers. Clean and tidy. Not a super big restaurant, so I recommend making reservations especially on Friday nights and weekends. Service was excellent. Great recommendation from our server and she checked up on use a few times making sure our water was filled. Coming back again for sure! read more

Five friends and a great meal! We shared multiple delicious plates and all were delicious. Spiciness can be tailored to your individual taste. Our waitress was very helpful in choosing the right dishes. Having a group of people that like to share food, made it a really great experience because we were able to try many things. The food is fresh and high quality. The sauces complement, the dishes perfectly. Lots of great drink choices, and non-alcohol choices as well. The decor is modern and the restaurant has a really nice vibe. The acoustics are a little loud, which can make it challenging to hear people at a table where there is a lot of talking. It's a fun atmosphere, but not conducive to quiet conversation. We tried the drunken noodles, pad, Thai, spring rolls, egg rolls, red curry, and a few desserts. Reasonable portion, size, and price. I cannot wait to go again. read more

Satay Thai kitchen excels in serving up dishes that provide a symphony of flavors that will both delight and satisfy Thai cuisine aficionados and those trying for the first time. Upon entering I was immediately struck by the warm and inviting decor that was rivaled only by the equally inviting staff. The aromatic flavors of the kitchen also drew me in and had me eagerly anticipating my meal. We ordered the Nam Kao bites, Satay chicken, Panang Curry and Pad se-ew. Each dish was harmonious and complex and a 10/10! The Pad se-ew was the best I have ever tasted and like all the other dishes balanced, freshness, texture and flavor. Panang Curry, though meant to be the mildest of the curry dishes, still had a kick to it so be aware if you are especially heat sensitive. The dish was delicious and I would order again with a request for a milder heat level. The Ñam Kao bites were perfectly salty, crunchy and fresh, inviting both satisfying flavors and texture. I liked that I could adjust the heat by removing the accompanying dried chiles. And I was wowed with how juicy the chicken on the Chicken Satay was..impressive feat with a fairly thin cut of chicken! Highly recommend making reservations as restaurant is small and fills up quickly. We made reservations via Yelp for a Friday night at 6pm and process was seamless. Staff were amazingly attentive without being intrusive and made you feel that you were dining among family. Well done Satay Thai Kitchen! read more

We wanted to like this place as some of the food was really good, and the ambiance is beautiful however I don't know if we would return. Maybe was an off night for them so I would still recommend checking them out. We were seated right away on a Saturday evening where they wern't too busy. Our drink orders were taken quickly, however sat for quite some time before they were brought back and our orders were taken. To the point I had to turn around in my seat and ask for our drinks. Although the lychee martini I ordered had a beautiful presentation, the flavor was not there and was very weak. Neither one of us liked it and were bummed since lychee martinis are one of our favorites. The couple next to us ordered many of the items we were interested in and looked great. We decided to start with the scallops and pork belly tapas. Again, we were disappointed with the scallops as were tiny and only came with three on the plate, and were luke warm. I asked the server if they were supposed to come out warmer and she said "no". Presentation was there, size and taste wasn't for $12. The pork belly was great, however, with a smoky taste and delicious greens. I recommend the pork dish. For our meals we ordered the duck curry with sticky rice and mixed meat pad thai. The duck was cooked perfectly with crisp and flavor, curry was a little thick for me personally but overall was tasty. The beef in the pad thai was all bad, tasted and had a texture like they soaked it in a liquid solution before cooking. We both agreed we would of returned the dish if had ordered with only beef and not a mix of meat. We were finished with our meal and watched as the waitress stopped by the table next to us at least three times, as they were cashing out, finished with them looking over or checking on us. This one table at a time method always frustrates me as you shouldn't have to wave your server over ask for to go containers and to cash out. The servers were friendly, but slow. All in all, we left and said "Meh, food wasn't bad but the service lacked, and wouldn't order half of the items we tried again". read more

Came right at 4:30pm as they opened on a Friday and had a wonderful experience. Food was fantastic. The decor was very inviting. They had calm lofi music playing and lots of plants around the place. The place was very clean, especially compared to the surrounding businesses. The Ube Iced tea tasted amazing. We ordered the spicy basil chicken, Panang Curry, Yellow Curry, and Thai Steak salad. All four were very good. Panang Curry definitely took the cake for me. The presentation of all the dishes were great but the flavor of the Panang curry was a savory, sweet, spicy, complex flavor that I loved. The steak was also wonderful in this dish. The steak in the Thai steak salad also had amazing flavor and was well prepared. The fried egg in the Spicy Basil Chicken was PERFECT. I'm usually not an egg person but it was barely running inside with a nice crispy texture on the bottom. Well prepared. Portion sizes were medium-large. Service was okay. Staff were nice. Definitely would recommend this place to friends and family. Bill for 4 came out to a little over $100 read more

I have been wanting to try this place since I heard about it! Food was delicious! We got the drunken noodles with chicken, Panang curry, and spring rolls. The drunken noodles were really good, flavor wise the spice was there and veggies tasted fresh. Would definitely recommend for my noodle lovers. Panang curry had a nice flavor as well. Had plenty of chicken and the rice paired very well with it. Spring rolls were also good. Very fresh and a good app to start. The sauce that was paired with it could have had a bit more flavor but I would get it again. This place is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. Whoever decorated knew exactly what they were doing. A vibe. The drinks could use some work. We got a lychetini wasn't as flavorful as some that I have tasted from other places. Cucumber mule tasted more like a vodka soda. Our service was attentive and quick. Overall will be back! read more

My cocktail was light, refreshing with a hint of sweetness. The eggrolls wasn't too heavy or overly fried but still had the perfect crisp. Both the steak salad & drunken noodles were packed with flavor!! Already looking forward to the next time I can return to try more menu items! read more

Visited for the first time to celebrate my birthday along with my girl friend + it was such a great time. Staff was really nice and it was a packed house. Sat immediately upon arrival.

Satay is a new Thai restaurant in Fresno. The restaurant is trendy and fun. I came on a Thursday evening and it was packed, I recommend making a reservation. I ordered the wrapped shrimp, red chicken curry, and the drunken noodles with beef. The red curry was spicy and had great flavor. The drunken noodles were my favorite! Drinks were fine but took awhile to come out. The restaurant is very noisy so if you are sensitive to sound, it's something to consider. read more

What a great new addition to the Fresno dining scene! I love how they decorated the place. Their vibe reminds me a lot of Farmhouse Kitchen! My friends and I came for dinner on a Wednesday night and it was busy. Service was great. Our table got the thai tea, ube thai tea, lychee blossom mocktail, and passionfruit mojito mocktail. Thai teas were great and I loved that they had mocktail options to choose from! Food overall was great. We started with the nam khao lettuce cups and chicken satay. Both were full of delicious. I do wish the chicken was a bit more charred for flavor and texture. For mains, we got a pad kee mao (drunken noodles), pad see ew, crying tiger tri tip, and crab fried rice. The rice noodles had a great texture! They were also nice and saucy. The crying tiger was just okay in my opinion. The sauce was bright and spicy, so good! But the tri tip had a smokiness that did not work for me. The crab fried rice was not it sadly. The rice was mushy, had little crab, and generally lacked flavor. I wouldn't order this particular dish again but I will definitely come back to try other things off their menu! We finished off our dinner with a mango sticky rice to share for the table and it was the perfect way to round out the meal. So good! read more

Location: Satay Thai Kitchen Date: November 19, 2025 Service: Mobile Pick Order My family and I was craving so much needed Thai food and the area. We decided to order from satay Thai kitchen restaurant. We ordered the special house rice which was green for some reason. We didn't eat the chicken and shrimp pad Thai and the eggrolls as well. Once I arrive at the restaurant, my order was ready for pick up. I like the decor of the restaurant and inside and I was able to park out front of the restaurant as well. Didn't have to find parking in a super long time. read more

Today must have been Murphy's Law because anything that could go wrong did for my experience here. I wanted some Tom Yum soup, however, I didn't want to drive all the way to Pad Thai restaurant off of Clovis. So I took the opportunity to try Satay since they're about a mile away from my house. There is no review on the Tom Yum soup, nor are there pictures. I figured because they're new and they've only been around for a few months, no one has had the opportunity to try it. So I decided I'll be the one that tries it. When I called for a to-go order, there was no one that picked up the phone. I figured, "let me check if the waitlist is impacted," and they were not taking anyone on the waitlist via Yelp. Reading through the reviews there was a good chance that this place was busy. It was about 6:45 PM when I called. Thinking that I can place it to-go order in-person I decided to put my shoes on and head over to the restaurant. When I got to the restaurant, there was one gentleman ahead of me and the place was busy. One of the employees, and it might've been the owner/manager, asked me how many were in my party and I said "I'm here to place it to-go order." She had said "did you call," and I said "I tried calling, but nobody picked up the phone." Then she replied "that's because we're not taking any to-go orders." At this point I'm already hungry and I have no choice but to eat here if I want Tom Yum soup. So I asked what the wait time to get food was. She said "it's about 15 minutes."And from there, it was not the best experience. I'm seated in the back at a two-top at 7:04 PM. While this is happening, I'm texting my husband about these events, because again, Murphy's Law and it's just sadly comedic from there. At 7:10 PM, a guy came and dropped off a water, however, he did not greet me. He did not make eye contact. He simply dropped off the water and left. At 7:16 PM, a different employee comes to take my order and she asked me what I would like to eat. I asked "how is the Tom Yum soup?" And she said "well I've never actually had the Tom Yup soup here. I've only had the Tom Kha and I like the Tom Kha because it's spicy." And I'm thinking to myself, the Thai restaurants that I have been to, the Tom Yum soup has always had a level of spice. So at this point I'm trying to be optimistic that this dish is going to be delicious and I double down and I order the Tom Yum. 30 minutes after I placed the order, the Tom Yum arrives. Mind you, this is not the 15 minutes that I was promised. The timestamp of my picture proves that. The Tom Yum is aesthetically pleasing. It smells nice and it seems to be a good portion for the $17. While my soup is being dropped off, my water is nearly empty and no one comes back to refill it. No one came to ask me how my soup was or if I needed anything else. No one was even in close proximity to me that I could essentially flag down. The Tom Yum was a 3.5 out of 5. The chicken was a little tough and I received three decent size shrimp. The Tom Yum needed to be spicier. The flavor was nice and had just the right amount of sour, however, it was missing that very important component. Aesthetically it was a very beautiful dish. I would have given it 4.5 out of five if it had just been spicy. The one thing that was the most disappointing to me was that I didn't have the best experience from start to finish. As a customer, I try to find one highlight in my experience and tonight it was the aesthetic of the restaurant. The ceiling fixture is unique and fitting for the vibe of the restaurant. Very photo worthy, and I saw many people taking pictures of it. The decor and paint are trendy and modern. Outside of that, the service could have been so much better. There were four different people that came to my table. First the young guy to drop off the water and not say anything, second the younger girl who took my order, third who I think is the owner/manager who brought me my check, and the bartender who came to my table to refill my water as I was going to pay my check. I'm not sure if I would try this place again. It is so disorganized. I got sat at 7:04 PM, I ordered at 7:16 PM, I got my food at 7:47 PM (only ordered soup), and I got my bill at 8:07 PM. After being told that the food would come out 15 minutes after I ordered, is incredibly misleading. As a customer, I would rather be told that the kitchen is behind so that I can make the decision on whether or not I wanna wait an additional 45 minutes for food. read more

I really enjoyed everything about this place. The food, drinks, and the ambiance were awesome! My husband and I couldn't decide on which curry to try but we decided on I think the Panang curry which was the red curry and it was delicious! It's a bit spicy but still good and we chose beef as our protein. The chicken wings are crispy and really good with the sauce it comes with. My husband loves spring rolls and really enjoyed it with their peanut sauce. Service was great and the ambiance is so pretty for any kind of occasion!

We didn't realize reservations were recommended, but luckily we arrived before the dinner rush and were seated right away. The service was great, the staff came by often to refill our water glasses. The dishes are not family-style but rather individual portions. We both opted for the Drunken Noodles with beef, which seemed to be one of the more generously sized dishes based on what we saw at other tables. Overall, the dish was pretty well-rounded in flavor and proportions, but I was expecting a bit more heat, especially since the menu indicated it would be on the spicier side. The prices are definitely on the higher end for Thai food, especially considering the portion size. While the ambiance and presentation were gorgeous, it still felt a bit overpriced for what we got. I'd recommend coming here more for the experience or ambiance rather than a casual, affordable Thai meal. read more

I loved this place. The restaurant has a nice and modern vibe. I was surprised by the price of food because any place I've been to the looked like this had high prices but this place had very reasonable prices and portions were big! The food was so good and taste very authentic. I'm making this my spot for Thai food from now on. read more

I've been waiting for them to open since I kept seeing them when I go for my yoga classes at Four Corners a couple doors down. The decor is fancy and calming. The staff was welcoming and attentive from the moment we walked in. They have tables with tall stool options, regular size chairs and bench seating. We tried 2 chef's specials since they're not typical dishes served at other Thai restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised the crab fried rice came with a fried soft shelled crab on top and the rice is blue from pea flowers. It was my friend's favorite dish. I thought it would be better if the dish stayed hot longer. I really liked the duck Panang curry. The duck had lots of meat and not too fatty; the curry tasted more masaman than sweet like Panang but still delicious!! We asked for chili oil and chili flakes; they came 10% full. Maybe that's to preserve the freshness until business picks up? Our mocktails were delish!! $6 each. Can't wait to try their cocktails when their alcohol license comes through. The lychee blossom was delicious and not too sweet; very refreshing. The passion fruit was tangy but not too tart; my friend said it was to sweet for her but I liked it since I don't like things too sour. Prices were appropriate for the quality and portion size. $24 for the duck curry and $21 for the crab fried rice. We split this between the 2 or us and had leftovers of both dishes to go. Will definitely be back. read more
