    Not even mediocre at best! I see several positive reviews, but I'm not sure we dined at the same restaurant. I ordered two dishes (Som Tum & Pad Moo Grob Prik King) and sticky rice. The dishes were tolerable, but nothing spectacular. The sticky rice appeared to have been placed in a microwave and nuked excessively—what a disappointment. I had a meal at this same restaurant a few years ago, and it was a totally different experience. I'll sum it up by saying dine at your own risk; I will not have a repeat performance.

    Great food! Quick pickup process! We have been searching for a good thai restaurant for a while and this was a perfect place! We got the red curry and pad thai and both tasted great! Warning (for next time for us) They take the spice levels seriously. We have ordered from other Thai places in the area and when we ask for spicy, it's rarely spicy but this place had my eyes watering when we decided to ask for spicy food. Will definitely dial down the request for next time.

    Tldr; Great servers, Quick Service, Good food! Went here for dinner with family visiting from Australia, and we were all very impressed! I'd heard great things about the place from my boyfriend who is a frequent customer here, and I'm so glad I picked this place! The server did take a while to come to us to take our order, but that's probably because we were just talking, haha. The service was extremely quick though! I ordered the Chicken Pra Ram, which was steamed chicken breast, steamed veggies and peanut sauce. I went for the a la carte to avoid the rice and got requested extra veggies instead. I even asked them to give me only the green beans and drop the cabbage and carrots, and they were happy to comply. The dish came loaded with peanut sauce though, and when I asked the server if I could have the sauce on the side instead, he went and got me a new order without hesitation! Huge bonus points for that! There was a ton of chicken too though, and the combination tasted really nice. I barely used any peanut sauce, but it was pretty good! My family got the Shrimp Pad Thai and the a la carte Chicken Pad Himmaparn (kind of like cashew chicken), both on the spicier side, and they loved both items. They were surprised how the kitchen actually made the food spicy as they wanted, unline a lot of other places whose spice level was never up to the mark. They both really enjoyed the meal, as well as the wine they got. Great night overall!

    I haven't been back here since to COVID pandemic. So it's great to see that they still offer the same great real authentic Thai food. The food here always reminds me of my homeland. Tasty and still true to the way they should taste like. Today I had GainTom , steam chicken with garlic rice and special sauce and Tom Yum noodles. They 're delicious as ever! What's a big surprise for me is their NEW decorations. They apparently remodeled the whole place. It looks modern, bright and nice. And the service is very friendly . This makes the whole dining experience very enjoyable. Definitely coming back again.

    Delicious. Soo good we ordered more to go. We had the pumpkin curry (Yum!), green papaya salad medium spice with poached shrimp (cooked to perfection), wide rice noodle dish with chicken and squid (tender wide noodles). Service was fast and so nice. Family restaurant. Neighborhood was iffy but worth it!! Lots of to-go. Loud, so good for kids. Great SF find

    Ordered through door dash. The food was delicious, I really felt like the ingredients and aroma shown through; but the cost per portion was a bit on the pricier side. I'd say it's better and more unique than your average thai restaurant where all the staple dishes more or less taste the same. (Ordered the Tom Yum and Gang Dang (Red Curry)). Just a warning, the red curry at medium spice was way spicier than I expected. Either they messed up my order or they operate on TRUE Thai spice levels. I'm pretty good with southeast asian spice (Malaysian chinese background) so I still found it great, but I think the "medium" i had could be considered "very spicy" at other establishments.
