I've eaten at some of the best Thai places in San Francisco, The Bay Area and surprising in Flagstaff Arizona and realize how lucky one is to find a really good one. Mediocrity seems to be the rule and i'm okay with the average fair. This place however was beyond the pale and potentially put my health at risk. The dish, Pad Woodsen, i ordered for lunch today was horrible. It was obvious the Wok my dish was cooked in was much too hot and burnt the oils and sauces it was cooked in. After a small taste (the smell was atrocious) this was confirmed and I requested the dish be redone however it was even worse the second time around causing me to spit out and rinse my mouth from the water in my glass. I was there with a colleague from work and they took my order off the bill but that is not the point, It's my health! It is so disrespectful and egregious serving potentially dangerous food to trusting and unsuspecting customers. How can one be sure it was even cooking oil or trust them with their health? Whom ever was the cook for my dish is not qualified, or worse, to be in any kitchen! I may still yet report this place to the health department. Here is a blurb about the possible harm of cooking and eating while burning or using burnt oils and such. Beware! "When an oil is heated past its smoke point, it generates toxic fumes and free radicals which are extremely harmful to your body. When the smoke point is reached, you'll begin to see the gaseous vapors from heating, a marker that the oil has started to decompose. Decomposition involves chemical changes that not only negatively affect the food's flavor and nutritional value, but also create cancer-causing compounds that are harmful when consumed and/or inhaled. So if you've cooked your cooking oil too long and it starts smoking, please turn off the stove and keep the vapors out of your lungs! And definitely throw away any food that's been in contact with the oil; it's much better to start again than to risk putting these free radicals into your body."

Order through Uber eats. Red Curry (Spicy) and Pad See Ew. Both meals were delivered hot and on time! It was delicious! I would recommend this spot for anyone looking for the above mentioned meals. The Red Curry was just right and spicy! Do yourself a favor and order away! You won't be sad that you did! It's worth it!

Been there many times, food is always good. Only complaint is they should tell that pad thai always has fish sauce and you can't make it completely vegetarian. But there are other vegetarian options, like curries and rice. Service is great and Thai tea is amazing.

We moved from Pr Wm last year but still will drive 45 minutes back for the great food and beautiful atmosphere . What a hidden gem in this otherwise forgotten strip mall. Our favorite Thai place!!

We tried this restaurant last weekend as we were looking for a new Thai restaurant. This is a small restaurant, but we were able to grab a spot around 7:30 PM on a Friday. The ambiance is nice and they do have outdoor seating. The service was prompt as well. I ordered the following: - Veggie Dumplings: loved this dish. The veggies were well seasoned and sautéed. It was not bland at all. Loved it. - Pad See Ew (Veggie): this was great as well. Very well seasoned and cooked well. There is so much more I want to try here. I'll be coming back for sure.

This is my new favorite Thai place! It's a good spot near Wegmans, crumbl cookie and other shops/ restaurants. The restaurant is nice inside and has an open vibe concept. The staff is friendly and attentive. We've tried both the pad see ew and drunken noodle and LOVE both! They each have a great flavor, a nice char on it and still saucy. The noodle to veggie/ meat ratio is great. The lunch special is great too. The side salad could be bigger in my opinion. The dressing on it is very tasty. I've gotten the medium spicy for both dishes and it's pretty hot. I can handle some heat so recommend starting low and then add it on after. The crab Rangoon appetizer wasn't my favorite. I do appreciate that they're homemade and stuffed and wrapped individually. I like that they use crab stick. But it needs more cream cheese and scallion and flavoring. It's a lot of the paper/ crunch and not enough filing. Not a good ratio. The yellow curry is really good too. I do think they need to add more veggies to it. The papaya salad also delicious a nice light appetizer. There thai iced teas are good too. It was a bit on the sweet side but still good.

Love this place. A hidden gem in Hastings market. Restaurant is very inviting and every person that I've met there is really nice. Food is delicious. My favorite Thai food in Manassas. When I'm hungry for comfort food, Pad See Ew is my absolute favorite. The only complaint is that I never try the full menu because I keep going back to delicious favorites. Not a bad problem to have!

They make awesome food! I will say I get the Crying Tiger almost exclusively but lately it seems they either changed cooks or depends on whose cooking it- there's been a MAJOR change in how good it's prepared which is a bummer but nonetheless it's amazing. The Tom Kha soup is my favorite soup in the area! Definitely recommend
As good a Thai restaurant as you could ask for. Family run, with great attention to customer service always. We normally get take-out here, but the few occasions doing eat-in were a success. Atmosphere is clean, roomy, and stylish. The menu is both standard fare and unique. The sweet and sour, for example, is different from others we've had over the years. The Pad Woonsen (cellophane noodles), Crying Tiger (spicy beef), and Sizzling Ginger with Chicken (delicious as it is simple) are favorites. And if you care to keep it simple and enjoy a bowl of rice, don't miss the Basil Fried Rice. Can't say enough about this jewel, and highly that others try it too.

Very good. I made a reservation and we were late, they still accommodated us. Food was quick, delicious and fresh. They accommodated to anything changes we wanted to. Prices were fair, restaurant was clean, area was easy to get to. I would definitely revisit.

The pineapple fried rice is a dish I'll be getting on the regular. I typically don't eat onions or scallions but the flavor combination of that with the pineapples and cashews was perfect. Tender chicken strips and juicy shrimp in the dish combined so well together. The whole dish was delicious and I was more than satisfied with my choice!

We popped in Friday during lunch and there was not a wait. We were seated quickly and the service was prompt. I ordered the garlic sauce chicken and my friend ordered the same with shrimp. The lunch portion was rather small, so if you're hungry consider ordering an entree (see pics for reference). The sauce was good, but not overly flavorful and was not "too garlicky." The pieces of chicken were tender, but cut into very small pieces. The cup of rice was too much for the whole entree. The side lunch salad was also about 5 pieces of shredded romaine and was a bit silly. Thr price was a bit steep for the portion size. The menu was pretty lengthy presenting many choices and spice levels were indicated. The dining room had an interesting conglomeration of decorations that included some Halloween decor and a Santa in the corner. The bar was well lit and there were about 4-5 beers on draft.
