I ordered from here for delivery. Heard from a friend that this is the best authentic Thai food restaurant. It was very good. The food tasted like the food I had when I visited Thailand a few years ago! Delicious.
Amazing food joint. Food was really good and well priced. Had a good time with friends.2 recommendations:1. Add a bar with some cocktails2. Introduce a kids menu (non spicy and smaller portions)

Not good food. The noodles and veggies were beyond over-cooked, minimal herbs and spices used. Pretty flavorless, disappointing in every way. Disappointed to see they used styrofoam for their to-go orders. We got the pad see ew, drunken noodle, pad Thai, and fresh spring rolls. Everything was gross and we all felt sick afterwards, probably cheap oils used to cook. Medium spice was very hot. We were hoping to finally find a decent Thai place in our area, but this was a strike-out.

First time trying this place ... I got the Curry wontons & Thai tea ... food is above par & you can't beat the price. Highly recommended

I saw this place has great reviews so we decided to try it out. We ordered via DoorDash and picked up so I can't comment on service other than it was ready when we arrived to pick up. Orange chicken - not nearly enough sauce. My daughter took 3 bites and spit it out. Chicken egg rolls - it was like they sliced and diced that chicken to shreds. They were ok, but mostly vegetables. Chicken Pad See Ew - no flavor. No spice. I was very disappointed in this and tossed it. I don't even think I could have added chili oil or anything to spice it up. Just bland. Fried Rice - also flavorless. My bf tried to doctor it up the next day by reheating it in the pan and adding chicken bouillon to it. No dice. Maybe it was an off night?

Free Thai Iced tea with a Yelp check-in. I ate here recently and it has been 10 years since I had eaten here. I think it had a different name back then. I ordered Crying Tiger and Chicken Satay Skewers and my work colleague had Pad See Ew. We both liked our food and the service was friendly. I will be back sooner next time! Four stars!

Lunch today at my fav! We had fish cakes - a dish we order so often that the server greeted us with the question, "fish cakes, today?" I tried the Pineapple Fried Rice today. A new dish for me. And it was great! And so much, that I have dinner also! I really like this place. The staff are super friendly. The restaurant is nice and open. Great place for casual dining on Thai home cooking!

So gooooooooood. From a thai person living in Irvine. The food taste just like in Thailand. I should have discovered this restaurant earlier!

Pretty good Thai food!It's been a minute since I've gone out for Thai, and I was glad I randomly picked this place. I work so close to this place and surprisingly haven't come across it. It's definitely not easily spotted on any of the main streets and is in what looks to be a somewhat dead strip mall, or at least that's how it looked when I went during dinner time.My girlfriend and I came here a few hours before closing, hoping there wouldn't be a wait. Luckily there wasn't! There was only about 3 parties dining in.When you walk in you'll see some nice lighting along the left wall and a fairly clean restaurant.We got seated, ordered some hot tea (it's cold nowadays!), and took a look at the menu.The menu has a lot of items, like appetizers, rice dishes, and more. I went ahead and ordered the Pad Thai Combo, my girlfriend got the Pad See Ew, and we got the Mango Sticky Rice to finish it off.In case you're wondering how the food was:- Pad Thai Combo: Delicious, and a hefty portion. The combo has pork, shrimp, and beef. The menu doesn't say that you can choose a spice level for this dish, so I specifically requested it to be very spicy. It was perfect.- Pad See Ew: My girlfriend liked it, and I also tried it (and helped her finish it). She got it with pork. The pork was cooked well done and the noodles al dente. I'm not a fan of this dish in general anywhere, but I can say it was pretty good.- Mango Sticky Rice: Ripe mango and sticky rice, incredible. I feel like the rice to mango ratio was just right for me :D.Service was good. The server was friendly and we were greeted when we entered as well as when we left.There's plenty of parking. There are neighboring businesses but many are vacant.Give this place a try!
Craving Thai food and we were in the area, so we stopped by because of the reviews. Plenty of parking in the lot next to Goodwill, and we were seated inside the roomy restaurant right away. Great service with friendly staff in a bright and clean restaurant. They have a TV and various wines bottles displayed, but we didn't order any. Decent portions for the price, but both of the Pad See Ewe orders were a bit under salted and slightly too oily for my taste.

ordered Mee Krob, Green Curry, Pad Thai, Pineapple Fried Rice. Flavors were balanced but mild, meats tender, plating pretty and appetizing. good service-attentive not hovering. nothing was remotely spicy but when I asked for chilis, I was presented with a plate of four metal pots with tiny spoons. powdered chilies, pickled green chilies, red chili garlic sauce, green pickled chili sauce. I would have liked a lime for the pad thai. 3 of us ate it all. curries do not come with rice.

This is definitely our favorite Thai restaurant and is one of the few places that all four family members can actually agree on! The food is delicious and the portion size is good. Of all the Thai restaurants in the OC area that we've tried, both of our kids think the Pad See Ew tastes the best here. We come here on a regular basis and are never disappointed.

I don't remember how many times I have been here. The food is just that good and service is good too. I will continue coming for as long as they are in business.

Zero quality control, doesn't read the order being out in, will send out the wrong order and call it a day. Shame, Thai food is usually paired with good service and pride for Thai food.
