    This is our go to place when family comes in from out of town. In fact, I did not feel like cooking tonight, so we ate lunch here and ordered food to go for dinner!

    Had a great birthday lunch with a friend. The lunch tasting menu was a fantastic way to sample a few courses, each of which was really tasty. Will definitely be back.

    Although the service was good, the flavor was merely average. Having tasted authentic Thai dishes in Asia, I believe this food wouldn't even match the street food quality in Thailand.

    First time back since they moved in Nov 2023. Considerably more upscale than attached to a gas station.....lost some of that charm as a hole in the wall gem. Outstanding food and service. Owner came by for a chat, server was wonderful and helpful in describing the menu items. Congrats on the Bib Gourmand recognition. It will be difficult going back to my usual Thai places for a while.
