    Salmon and Sweet potatoes
    Juju M.

    This restaurant is top notch! I loved the dine in experience, our table was cozy and our food was delicious!!! I had the salmon with apricots and pecans, sweetporatoes and cabbage, my husband had the Rolling Stone which was shrimp stuffed wiith crab meat. We ordered appetizers, ginger shrimp rolls and the avocado blossom i think it was called. Our coconut soup wirh seafoos was also sooo good. I ordered the Pad Thai to go bacause its my favorite meal from this restaurant. We also had a nice yable cisir from John, the owner who gave us a few of his favorites to try next time. This will be our new go to reataurant for date nights! Always a lovely atmosphere and great time! Juju and Gene Riggins

    Tutti Fruity Duck

    A lovely family owned restaurant in a local strip mall. Attentive service. The menu is quite extensive, although many of the dishes are not my idea of Thai food. However, everyone liked the food. The seasonings seemed more sweet than Thai. I asked for medium spice level for my green curry dish, but it seemed bland, tasting mainly of coconut and a bit of spice. The atmosphere is very nice, with many live plants and Thai art pieces.

    I have only about 45 mins for lunch break so it is always great to find amazing food and have it come out quickly. They have 3 course lunch menu which I ordered off. I order soup . salad and chicken basil as the main dish Coconut milk chicken soup. Fresh ingredients and smooth taste The salad was also super fresh. House made peanut dressing as well Chicken basil was hot and fresh. Very tasty and they made sure it wasn't too hot spicy. Would def return.

    Drunken Noodle Lunch. Delicious. Wish they had add more vegetables then noodles :)

There are some larger tables for groups of 6 or more but I'd call to reserve one if you are coming with a big party. I thought that the pricing was very reasonable. I tried the pad eggplant with shrimp, chicken satay and winter shrimp. The pad eggplant had one pepper signifying it was mild, and it was label appropriately. The shrimp were fresh and the flavor was good. The chicken satay could have been grilled a little more but the peanut sauce was strong in the chicken and the dipping sauce. I liked the winter shrimp. I'll never understand how they get the shrimp to long length to be fried.

It's no secret that they're highly…read moreacclaimed with tons of awards, and just recently received the Outstanding Restaurant award by James Beard! I've visited 3 times now and each time was amazing. The food reminds me of my childhood of my grandma's cooking. Everything is beautifully presented, so flavorful, and spicy dishes are actually spicy! The cocktails and dessert are always so well done. The service is great. Everyone I've encountered has been knowledgeable and offered great recommendations depending on our preferences. The ambiance is casual but vibrant in what looks like a former warehouse of some sort. Its industrial meets modern Thai with lots of plants throughout the space to give it warmth and color. Since this restaurant is in fishtown, street parking is tricky but there is a paid lot 4 blocks away. The ground chicken flower dumplings were beautiful and tasty. I prefer the bird shaped ones with the preserved cod since the dumpling is smooth with a uniform texture. The grilled oysters were outstanding. I loved the spicy sauce and the fried garlic on top. My husband and I agreed that they have the best yellow curry we've ever had. It's powerful and served with turmeric rice that balances the flavors so perfectly. The river prawn was umami heaven and so buttery. To drink I had the pandan daiquiri which was incredibly delicious! It was the perfect frozen summer cocktail. I can't wait to go back!
