👍👍 Literally the best pad thai in the city. I know, I've tried atleast 15 places looking for the right stuff. The hot is clearing my sinuses as we speak, but I got the medium a couple weeks ago and is very tasty either way. Also, the pumpkin curry.... yes. So good. Tip him well, he's way under priced.... People often mention Thai, rice, good, curry, fried,

Couldn't get a photo of my chicken pad thai because I dug into it too quickly. This is my second entree I got to support the business and try something new.

    This was my second time here. The first time I dined in, the dining room is sparse, but comfortable enough. I had the pad Thai that time, it was pretty decent, this time I got the pineapple curry and hoo boy was it amazing. Best I’ve had maybe. I got the medium and it was plenty spicy, I may go madman next time and try hot, I’m afraid of the level above that 😂. I can’t believe I’ve been sleeping on this place for so long. Check it out.

    Went here to eat lunch on a Friday. Place was completely dead. Thai places usually have a weird layout but this one felt really barren. Awkward silence as there is no music playing and and odd set up of chairs. The server / owner brought us our menus and took about 10 mins to come back. We placed our order and about 20 mins later the food came out. I got basil fried rice and my girlfriend got the red curry and a Thai tea. Hands down some of the worst fried rice I have ever gotten at a Thai place (it's usually my go to). It was served on a 4th of July paper plate with plastic cutlery. Extremely wasteful, especially since we were dining in. The fried rice barely even seemed fried, I ordered it "hot" and it was extremely mild and bland. There was mushrooms which I was stoked about but the mushrooms tasted like they went bad. The curry was actually decent (but still lacked flavor and tasted slightly off) which is why I am giving it 2 stars instead of 1. Only thing that was actually GOOD was the Thai tea. Service was bottom tier. Save yourself and go to Thai cuisine 1 or 2. 40 bucks for terrible Thai food. Will never be back.

    Food was good. Service was terrible. Ordered four curries of which they mischievously added "extra vegetables", something I had never asked for, raising the total by 8 dollars. This had to have been some scheme I never mentioned it and this "extra vegetables" amounted to like a few extra broccoli and carrots. Pretty annoyed. Will not be returning

    Some of the best Thai food I’ve ever had. If you are ever in the area, you NEED to stop by here

    We went to Hot Pink on a Thursday night for dinner. We initially thought the restaurant was closed since there wasn’t a single car in the parking spaces out front or diner in the restaurant. The owner (and sole employee) seemed completely indifferent we were patronizing the restaurant. We ordered Sprites, which came as bottles we poured into styrofoam cups. I ordered the pad Thai with tofu, mild spice. The dishes were delivered on paper plates, and after they were dropped off we did not see the server again. The pad Thai was quite bland, and my husband’s pineapple fried rice was both dry and tasteless. After waiting, I needed to walk up to the window to ask for our check. The owner was watching videos on his phone and seemed unconcerned we were there. No other diners came in to dine, which absolutely made sense after we experienced the lack of service, the disposable cups and plates, and the lack of any music or atmosphere. We won’t be back.

    Excellent selection, quality, courteous staff and reasonable prices. Can’t get much better! I would recommend anyone to try it and especially if they love Thai food.

    I won't comment on the atmosphere - I knew it was a hole in the wall type place and they already had a sign that it was served on paper/plastic cutlery. This review is just for the food and service. The good: Service was friendly and the food came quickly. Thai ice tea is good! The bad: Food is bland. We ordered two different noodle dishes and they seemed identical except one had egg and the other didn't. There was also very little meat in each - seems like corners are being cut for the price. We ordered one of the dishes Thai Hot and it was still bland and not particularly spicy despite the menu warnings. The ugly: Sticky rice with mango was made completely wrong. It wasn't sticky rice - just (leftover?) white rice with coconut poured on top. Really disappointing and I've never had that experience at any Thai restaurant ever.

    Food was decent, but not outstanding. Chicken satay were large, but a little dry. Drunken Noodles were a bit bland. Potstickers came with a sweet dipping sauce rather than a soy based sauce.

    We go here about every other week. Pad Thai and yellow curry are great, crab Rangoon very good.
