“ Amazing service! Delicious, hot, fresh food! Very accommodating for our kids. We loved this place! Our favorite dishes were the coconut soup and roasted duck curry(although we asked for zero spice since our kids can't handle heat and it was still a bit spicy-great for the adults but note that this can't be made with no spice). We will definitely come back here again soon! ”
“ Had a great dinner & service was great! Hope to go back sometime soon! A bit hidden in off of the street but glad we found it. ”
“ Khao Soi 5/5: This item was listed on a board near the entrance. I did not see this on the menu. Khao Soi is a curry noodle dish that's usually served with chicken, pickled veges, and fried noodles as a topping. I love the curry is this dish as it's not too salty but it packed with flavor. The pickles help cut through the richness and the fried noodles at texture. Just be careful slurping as you might get your clothes dirty. I hope they will continue to serve this dish! Spicy Noodles 5/5: I ordered this thinking it sounded like Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) - my go-to Thai dish. This did not disappoint! We got this with Mild heat and it was perfect. The spiciness slowly builds as you continue to eat and the basil was aromatic. Duck Curry 5/5: I'm coming back for this. The curry is so rich and flavorful. The duck is also very tender. I highly recommend this dish if you're looking to try a new curry. Pineapple Fried Rice 4/5: The rice is covered in turmeric and there's pineapple chunks and raisins sprinkled throughout. This isn't my cup of tea, but my friends and family love this dish. Iced Thai Coffee 5/5: So good! This was a steal for $4. It is on the sweeter side like most Thai drinks, but the strong coffee balances it out. ”
“ Fantastic! Best Thai food I've eaten outside Thailand. Hard to find (use Maps, not Directions), but well worth it!! ”
“ My favorite Thai restaurant love the curry chicken as well as the bbq chicken which is special order they only have it every once in a while. The spring rolls as well as the chicken fried rice. Service is always amazing ”
“ Literally hidden but it's toward the back corner, right of the Sanctuary. There's an opening & walkway & it's the right corner. I almost gave up trying to look for it. The servers are very friendly & attentive. The ambiance was peaceful and cozy. The food was flavorful. The beef pad see ew was huge and was delicious. The chicken satay was okay -- the chicken was lacking flavor. I felt like I had to add a lot of peanut sauce to it. The Thai iced tea was a good size and it was good, a little on the sweet side. ”
“ Love the service! They are all so nice! Love the Thai ice tea, it so good. The chow mein is good perfect for my daughter. The squid salad is good but it does have a smell like it old. The pad Thai is okay . ”
“ My Go-To Thai Restaurant Tucked away from the busy streets, this Thai spot is a true hidden gem. A friendly cozy ambiance. The menu has a tantalizing array of Thai dishes that are bursting with authentic flavors. Whether it's the aromatic curries, every bite is a culinary journey through Thailand. What keeps me coming back is not just the delicious food but also the impeccable service. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always ready with excellent recommendations. This restaurant has become my go-to spot for Thai cuisine, offering a combination of delectable dishes. ”
“ Fancied Thai, did a quick Yelp search and found this place.... we started by splitting the dumplings, I went onto the Garlic and Pepper with chicken main and my wife had the pineapple curry with shrimp ... On receiving the food we knew there was too much for us so elected to split the curry which tbh was absolutely epic ! We will certainly return, we'll split a main and have the fried banana next time ... last night we reheated the garlic and paper and if I scored the curry at 11 out of 10 then I would unfortunately score the chicken dish at 6 ... Am glad we split as I wouldn't have been so high on the place without sampling the curry but everywhere has its goto dishes... we will return and v happy to find the place.. ! ”
