    11. Pork Dumpling
    Rebecca B.

    This was my first time trying this place and I ordered delivery. The dumplings were very good, very flavorful. The shrimp nime chow was disappointing though. It was wrapped well and stayed together, so that was definitely a plus. However, I was not a fan of the excessive amount of lettuce and the large cucumber strip. I would much rather have less of those and more noodles and bean sprouts. The coconut rice was ok. Nothing spectacular. I ordered a side of the hot oil. It was hot but the flavor wasn't there. I would order the dumplings again and would like to try a few other things before making a final decision on this place. It could have potential that I just haven't tasted yet. It's at least worth a second order eventually.

    Small dining room but pleasant

    This place is tiny and clean. We went here because I saw the boba sign in front and wanted to try something new in Wakefield. I ordered Mango Curry with the chicken option and satay chicken. It was delicious and curiously the sour unripe mangos added to the dish. My daughter ordered the Emerald Plate. She also ordered a strawberry boba which tasted like strawberry yoohoo lol! As we were eating a kid on a skateboard came in and asked how much a boba tea was. He didn't have enough and said so and turned to go. The lady at the register told him she would get it for him. He seemed embarrassed but eventually accepted. I include that only because it's a small thing but shows the generosity of this woman who was server and register. It wasn't busy but I found it a graceful thing to do.

    First Meal Review ** Takeaway/Takout First let me say that the staff was VERY friendly both when I ordered over the phone and arrival. The place was super clean and my order was ready for contactless pick-up. That being said this was not my favorite Thai meal locally. We ordered three lunch combos which came with an appetizer, soup/salad, and lunch portion entree...so a great value at $10 each meal! But... the chicken on all three meals was so not good. The chicken satay had great flavor but was tough. The fresh spring roll was indeed fresh but the sauce lacked any flavor or basil so basically lettuce and rice paper. The salad was fresh and great dressing. The tom kah soup was smooth, tangy and flavorful as it should be. The mango curry was flavorful but those veggies were chopped huge and again the chicken was tough. The hot basil stir fry had the same chicken issue and the sauce was very thin and overwhelming. The pad thai was super sweet and the noodles stuck together in big clumps. Maybe it deserves another review at dinner... we will see...

    Pretty cute place located in a non descript shopping strip. Food was pretty standard for a Thai place. Flavors overall were on point and a good reprieve from all the fish and chips and lobster rolls in the area

    Tom Yum soup. Chicken Satay appetizers.

    Amazing. Everything is amazing! Some of the best cupcakes and cakes ever. So much detail in…read moreeverything they do here even how they package their bakery items.

    Terrible customer service. The review that I read describing the owner as the Soup Nazi made me…read morelaugh because it is so accurate. All of my interactions with him have left a bad taste in my mouth. He is so rude, dismissive and acts like he's doing you a favor by letting him make a cake for you. It sounds like they make delicious cakes here, but I never got the chance to try any. We tried on several occasions to set up a cake tasting appointment and a meeting to go over the cake we ordered. Just giving them a deposit ended up being so difficult--they never answered the phone and half the time their emails were returned to sender. I probably had to call five or six times just to connect with him on his cell to take the deposit. He would email me windows of time to make the call and then he wouldn't even answer. Their store is closed 90% of the time it is listed as being open. We also found out that the cake we ordered is actually being canceled and we got no explaination at all. Patticakes never even contacted us themselves and we only found through other means that they canceled all their orders for the summer. If we hadn't heard through the grapevine, we could've ended up a few weeks away from our event and not had our cake! Hopefully getting my deposit back will be easier than it was trying to pay it. And hopefully another bakery in the area will be available so close to my event. I don't know whats going on with this business, but its terribly run. I'd steer clear of it and find somewhere else to get a quality cake from. Doug will be the first to tell you (because he did) that no cake I get will be better than his. But at least those other cakes will be delivered.

We honestly couldn't have asked for better staff interaction. Everyone was friendly, personal and genuinely cared about our time there! Also hats off to the chef! Jared told us he was the best and I can agree! This was quite possibly one of the best meals I've had all year! We shared a special of the night ( goat cheese, beets, peaches and hot honey) and the salad that is set to be a new menu item. Everything was locally sourced and these dishes were a 10/10! It was hard to choose and entree so Emily C and I split the cod and the steak sirloin. The cod was to die for. The best I've ever had. The sirloin was chefs kiss and the sauce and asparagus it paired with (and potatoes too) were all out of this world! While i was already full, the dessert menu is a must. We went with a lemon dessert and oh my goodness was it to die for! Drinks were amazing too---I had a spritz and a very tasty mocktail! Ambiance both inside and outside are beautiful. Since it was a sunny summer night we sat outside, but inside is equally stunning. It is very upscale chic and so pretty! Thank you for a wonderful experience! I'll be back for the staff, especially our server David, another drink, the eggplant sandwich and more of the dessert menu! I see why Yelp raves about this new spot! It is !

What a treat for the kids meals to also have a hummus/carrot appetizer, side of green beans, and a scoop of gelato to finish off their meals! Our server Alyssa was so wonderful and attentive! We had a beautiful evening here and can't wait to come back!
