Pad Thai is amazing and the portions are huge. You’ll have enough to take leftovers home for lunch the next day.

Brooks Finnegan

The fresh rolls with shrimp are delicious! They're made with raw julienned veggies , basil and shrimp and wrapped in flat rice noodles and served with a thick, rich satay sauce with crushed peanuts

Joseph Doss

Be sure to try their Fried Ice Cream . Yes, you read that right. It sounds weird if you've never heard of it before, but it's delicious. My favorite is the green tea .

Annie Kozak

Try to beat the 12PM lunch rush if you can. Being seated at 11:55 as opposed to 12:05 makes a world of difference here. Lunch combos are all amazing!

Jaspreet Ahuja

Service sucks but the food is really good. The curries are all really good and well done. The duck choo chee is succulent and very flavorful.

Stephen Smart

The Tom Yum noodle soup is my favorite. Great service too!

Juliet

Favs are: Chicken noodle soup (add veggies ) with a side of chili sauce . Also the Tofu Basil , the Spicy Tofu & the Beef Salad are delish.

Mario Rodrigues

Great lunch specials ! Try the Lychee Juice or the Basil Limeade ????????

Curry was good, I was worried it would be too spicy but it wasn't. I can do mild/medium curry generally tho

Mandalay Noodle ... 'nuff said (you won't find it on the menu). Couple it with their Thai Iced Tea (awesome!)

Try out the crispy pad thai . Dash of lime and a little hot sauce and your mouth be partying.

Mango curry and lychee juice are brilliant..

I concur... HUGE portions !

Jack Korpob

Just left out angry because they forgot my order, gave part of my food to the table next to me (they realized it was mine), and then told me I lied that I had waited for 30 minutes. No tips for them!

Duke Bravis
