As a treat, we had their coconut & mango homemade ice creams that weren't on the menu, but worth every bite! This is in a remote tiny area just off Hwy 11 at the south end of the Big Island. Well worth the stop if you're on your way to Kīlauea or black sand beach.

Not really sure how to feel about this place. Food was good but took a strangely long time…read more.. When we got there, there was a table of 4 that already ordered. Around 5 mins after we ordered, we got our drinks and fried spring rolls (both just average). Then, us and the table of 4 proceeded to wait until 30 mins for our food... The entire time, not a single dish was produced. It was weird. Why did it take so long? They didn't have any to-go orders they were cooking for in the meantime. There was just nothing happening... for 30 minutes. While we were waiting, more and more parties came in and some phone orders as well. At that point, they were letting people know it would take an hour and a half. (??????) I know island time is more laid-back but this was very mysterious. Maybe the chef went on break? Maybe they had a family emergency? Maybe they had an equipment issue in the kitchen? Unsure, but it was odd! My expectations hit rock bottom at that point but then when I ate my pineapple fried rice, it was actually really good. Bizarre experience but oh well!

The rice was somehow mushy and crunchy at the same time? Dunno how she pulled off that but it wasn't pleasant. The veggies were obviously a package of frozen mixed veggies that you wouldn't typically find in the dish. Very WEIRD combinations. The Thai tea tasted nothing like Thai tea either. Everything was just plain gross... this isn't Thai food, this lady is a disgrace I feel totally ripped off. I can make thai food better and I'm not all Thai, I just give a damn about how my food tastes.

The food was SO good. I would honestly come back just for the papaya salad alone -- hehe it definitely has a kick!

The Pad Thai was super tasty too, and everything came out beautifully presented. You can tell they really care about both the flavor and the experience. Definitely a spot I'd come back to!

We got sick, and paid almost $60 for 2 bad tasting Phad Thais. One beef Phad Thai comes out to $24…read more (NOT including tax+ credit surcharge + tip) apparently they switched their menu to anything with beef add $4. They don't tell you that when you order, they just charge you. And on top of it, the meat wasn't fresh, left us both sick all night, and both meals just tasted overwhelmingly like fish sauce and, not fresh meat, it was all I could taste was fish sauce and dried up chewy pieces of beef. My gf got house Phad Thai and it came with scraggly pieces of chicken barely a handful and 2 shrimp. For $20.00. Even if that's the going rate price which has exponentially gone up, the food should be held to a standard especially for that price, it was not. They had things in there, the chilli peppers I was biting into hurt my teeth. It was chewy meat, and they did not use fresh ingredients, at least the meat was far gone and it tasted terrible. Stayed up all night having stomach issues and racing to the restroom. I've tried this place several times and each time I'm disappointed with a stomach ache and not the best tasting, but I always say I'll give them another try bc their location is convenient, but that's it, last time I'm ever going there. Please do better. We are people, not just paying customers, we deserve safe food.
