Incredible food. Service was very friendly and helpful. We were not rushed and was a very relaxed atmosphere. Very simple for "decor" but had a great time and food was very fresh. Tried entrees and appetizers, all very flavorful. Delicious!

This is my first time at this place. When I walk in, there are no guests sitting down so i was alone and the owner well who i think is the owner came out of the kitchen and thought I had ordered something. I eventually ordered something and he himself took the order and then went back to the kitchen. So he is a chef and he a cashier and does delivery by himself! Much respect and I gave him a small tip . Place is small. I don't think there are any bathrooms in there though I never got up to check. So for the atmosphere I'm giving it a 3 star. It isn't bad but just very empty therefore kinda uninviting.I ordered the beef curry which comes with white rice, pork dumplings, cheesecake, and a strawberry smoothie.Smoothie was definitely real as in they used real strawberries and it wasn't drowned in fructose syrup. With that being said, it wasn't super sweet, but just right especially with the food I ordered. Very hardy food i ordered. It was refreshing and a nice texture so that is a mega plus!The dumplings were also good and savory. Dunno what kind of sauce that was but if it was soy sauce, it definitely wasn't your typical soy sauce. It wasn't super salty and sour. It was comforting really!The Beef curry was hardy and good and had a wonderful sweet aroma to it too, but there definitely needed to be more sauce. The curry was more so big chunks of beef than anything else. ItThe cheesecake was good. They didn't have strawberry or raspberry sauce so they'd used chocolate sauce. The cheesecake itself was thick and it wasn't really cold so I'm wondering if it was a fresh batch or whatever i dunno but it wasn't too rich for me to not be able to finish it all so I love that.Everything was good. I don't really have any complaints. I will be back but next time I may just do take out or bring a friend who likes Thai food cuz being alone kinda sucked a little bit you know.Shout out to the owner and the other worker! Thank you!

Awesome small place for sure. The food was great and the staff was friendly and courteous. Ordered 2 Thai teas, Pad Thai chicken, Burmese chicken, and noodles. Softest chicken I've ever had and the noodles on both meals were great and the perfect softness. Thai teas were creamy and smooth. If we lived closer we would make this the place to go with friends and family.

I had the pad thai, it had bell peppers in it which was odd. It was okay, nothing to write home about.

The portions were generous and delicious! I got the roast duck with steamed veggies and fried wonton. My husband got Tom Yum Soup and my daughter got a caterpillar roll which is grilled unaqi (eel) and cucumber topped with avocado, sesame seeds, and eel sauce. It was a work of art!!!

Don't judge a book by its cover! That's what I think of when I see this place. The outside doesn't look inviting at all. The inside is very basic. So you don't come here for the ambiance or decor. You come here for the food. We stopped here for a late lunch & were the only customers. Though a few people did stop in while we were eating to pick up orders. I ordered Pad Thai, and my husband got sesame chicken. The Pas Thai was honestly one of the best I ever had. The noodles were cooked perfectly. It was loaded with chicken, though I would have liked a bit more peanuts. I requested heat level 4 but would probably get 3 next time. Service was good. Go there for the food, not the 'dining experience'. 2023-114

Ordered takeout Pad Kee Mao Noodle (Thai hot) and Red Curry (Hot). Order was ready exactly on time and packed well. The bag even completely flipped over in the car on a turn and not a drop spilled.Very good portions for the price. Will definitely order again and try other dishes. Thai hot was spicy but nothing too crazy, so I am going to kick it up to 'Extremely hot' next time.

What a gem; can't wait to return. Very low key, plain, but clean. No extra napkins on the table or placemats or tablecloth, but mouth-watering food and plenty of it! Unfortunately, I did not write down what we ordered, and I don't find it on their online menu.

I went for lunch to FTR with friends on Saturday. We had green papaya salad, green tea leaf salad, panang curry and fresh vegetables rolls. The food was very fresh, well cooked, tasty and overall a very enjoyable meal. The atmosphere is not the best, but worth going to. I'm going back for sure.

Ordered lunch takeout while in the area. I got the fried wonton (freshly made), tom yum soup, and the Burmese Fried Spare Ribs (house special). I’m so glad I did, it was all so delicious, but the spare ribs were incredible. I will definitely be back again.
