The restaurant is one of the prettier Thai restaurants in the neighborhood, but the prices are very high, the portions quite small, and the service was poor. The food itself was just OK, most dishes were very salty and the pad thai was way too sweet. Unbelievably, they do NOT include rice with any of their dishes, it costs EXTRA! I have never been to any other asian restaurant in my entire life that did not include rice with the entrees; it seems like a dumb way to cheap-out. You can do MUCH better at most of the other dozen or so Thai restaurants in this neighborhood.

It seems like most reviews about this restaurant are positive so they might have a different chef now... because my experience in this restaurant was terrible. The food wasn't good at all and even tasted old and we experienced upset stomach the same evening and the next day... I love Thai food but would definitely recommend to avoid this restaurant! The waiter was nice though but the person seating us was quite pushy.

I swear, they have to change their sign -- looks cheezy outside. But inside, it's a different story. On full nights, it can be tight but there's generally enough space that you won't need to make reservations. They have the best pad thai I've tasted! and the tamarind duck is excellent! Nice and crispy but slathered with flavorful tangy sauce. The staff is warm and friendly and they greet you like old friends. It's affordable too! Highly recommended!
