Came into this spot since the place I used to go to was gone. So lets see how the food and presentation goes. The Thai ice tea.was a bit more sweet then I would have liked but it was good.. the tom yum soup was with noodle and well they have 2 one with noodles and one that's without...didn't know their were different ones other then the protein option.

We visited May Thai on the Sunday before thanksgiving. It’s been busy since the holiday season started. Three of us were dining for dinner and two of us Re vegetarians. The food was beyond delicious. We ordered the coconut milk soup with tofu (vegetarian), side order of rice noodle to go with the soup - the best combo ever; pad Thai with beef; pineapple fired rice with tofu and pad see ew (custom made vegetarian version). The owner P was amazing, and super attentive. We originally wanted to order the pad thai with Tofu and she was honest with us that the pad thai source is not vegetarian and it won’t taste like padthai without the source so she recommended the pad see ew instead, which turned out to be prefect. Not many restaurant would care about little details like that. Her effort in making sure that our dishes are vegetarian is above and beyond. She also check in with us about the food after they were served. It’s definitely a five star restaurant for the excellent food, amazing customer service and warm/cozy atmosphere. You gotta try it out! You won’t regret it. The Thai ice tea was also perfect.

The experience, customer service, and ambiance is sublime. The food was absolutely delicious and our server was consistent in checking in on our table. He even noticed as soon as I dropped a utencil on the ground before I could ask for a replacement - he already had one on hand to drop off. The pad see ew was my personal favorite - so flavorful! The meat was not too chewy and the amount given was generous. My partner also enjoyed their beef noodle soup. The egg noodles were great in its consistency and the broth was flavorful without being too salty. There were also big chunks of beef and meatballs. The price is fair for the quality you receive. I will definitely be returning!

December 2023:Came here for dinner and tried the green beans with chicken and the seafood eggplant sizzling platter main. Both were really tasty ?. I thought the seafood eggplant platter was exceptional. I liked how the eggplant charred nicely on the sizzling platter.Ate everything with jasmine rice ?. Service was friendly and the restaurant was nicely lit.Will definitely be back again for more delicious food!

I first walked by the place thinking I found an antiseptic shot gun layout Thai restaurant that was just phoning in atmosphere . I was pleasantly surprised that I found myself in a nicer dining experience. I felt that the Thai faire that I was preparing to choke down was in fact a unique and delicious culinary presentation that truly delighted me. Upon expressing said delight I met said chef. They gleamed with a sense of pride when I acted as a gushing new fan. I now only hope more indulge in this wonderful little discovery.

Thai and Vietnamese hit right when we're looking for a meal that is both fresh and comforting. We were excited to see a new Thai restaurant open and ordered delivery, everything was just as we'd hoped: fresh and comforting.Crispy Rice Salad: EHRMAHGAWSH I love this salad. I got the sausage on the side so hubs could enjoy. This one is heavier on ginger than Bahn Mae Vane, different but still delicious.Crispy Vegetable Rolls: Fresh, crunchy, awesome sauces (although if I had to choose I'd go for the Crispy Rice Salad over these Pad Thai with tofu: chewy and delicious. Next time I'd add extra veg because we like veggiesRed Curry with tofu: solid red currySide peanut sauce, nice portion size for $4. So yum.Everything was hot when it arrived and packed with care. Looking forward to taro and chicken curry puffs. Thank you so much for a delicious meal!
