Good food and service. Inside is small. Menu is fairly simple, mostly focusing on Thai street food. There are some unique dishes like Hainanese chicken. My favorite is the fried pork with garlic, followed by spicy fried chicken salad.

Good food and good service. The waiter was a nice young man who was very friendly. Inside is small. Menu is fairly simple, mostly focusing on Thai street food. There are some unique dishes like Hainanese Chicken and Northern Thai Curry. We tried 3 dishes: garlic pork was my favorite, followed by fried chicken salad. We tried Thai spicy (5/5 ) with the Northern Thai Curry with vermicelli, and it wasn't super spicy. The curry is quiet thick, and the flavor wasn't my favorite.

My son and I and another lady were the first customers of the day this morning. You know the food is going to be good when the other customer tells you "you came to the right place to eat." Everyone was so nice. We brought our food home to eat. I was blown away by the food! Hainanese chicken- so tender, paired with flavorful rice, the clearest chicken broth (did not taste oily) and the dipping sauce was amazing (spicy but not too spicy for me). Pad see ew- not too salty, just right. Khao soi- had pieces of chicken and a drumstick in the soup- a tad bit salty but it was still good and the fried noodles gave it a good crunch mixed in with the regular noodles. Fried tofu- didn't get soggy from the drive home and the sauce was your regular sweet chili sauce but they chopped up garlic and mixed it in the sauce and that was tasty (I don't normally like the sweet chili sauce)! Food was fantastic. Looks like a hole in the wall place- it's right off Pac Highway but don't let the outside deter you from eating here! The parking is a bit tricky and small- they are next to a motel so parking is limited. I will definitely be coming

I have only ordered take out twice from here so far, but have been very impressed with how quick and delicious the food is! I ordered on GrubHub first and got their Pad Kee Mao with 2 stars spice level to test out how well they cook one of my favorite noodle dishes. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of vegetables and meat to noodle ratio and they definitely made sure to accommodate the spice level as well! I chose pork for my protein option and it was tender and cooked perfectly. My mom took a bite too and said it was pretty good.The second time I ordered was through DoorDash and I got the Kao Mun Gai (or Hainanese chicken and rice). Again, I received a perfection balance of chicken, rice, sauce, cucumbers and soup to enjoy a great meal. The chicken was super tender and it was heavenly paired with the soybean ginger sauce that had fresh chilis that added a pleasant kick to the meal. I never had Kao Mun Gai that had chilis so just be wary for those who can't handle spicy. I am looking forward to hopefully dine in the future as the food from takeout has been pretty phenomenal! I also see that many reviewers mentioned that they are pretty accurate with the spice levels so I will take it up a notch for my next order as I love spicy Thai food. Definitely worth ordering from whether you are dining in or doing take out!

I got the northern Thai curry noodles because I don't see that often. I was disappointed by the taste of it. Something tasted weird after the first bite. I didn't know what it was then I realized there was pork blood in it. The menu should've indicated what ingredients it came with. I had to ask what meat was in it and I was told it comes with pork. If I knew it came with blood then I would've told the server to take it out. It destroyed the broth and all the noodles tasted like blood. The broth wasn't hot enough and the bean sprouts didn't get cooked. I was still eating and the server brought me a check, which I find it rude. There was on one else in the restaurant.

The flavors were fantastic, however the prikh king green beans were barely cooked and squeaky!! It is my favorite Thai dish and I have had it many times. Disappointing to say the least for something that costs 14$

Authentic Thai food. Food was on point, very flavorful and spicy! We loved everything we ordered. Staff were friendly and food came out super quick. Definitely recommend the Khao Soi, it was so delicious. We will be back to try other stuff on the menu.

FOOD is really good and the amount of spicy is excellent. Location of the restaurant is kind of sketchy and parking is horrible but I would definitely come back here and dine in. Price is decent as well as portion.
