I really have nothing positive to say about this place except for our server she was great but that was about it. Starting with the crab wontons, papaya salad and the sampler platter nothing was fresh, they all tasted old and just overall not good. For our entrees we got the garlic stir fry with chicken, the pad Thai and the beef over white rice. Everything was disgusting that’s the best way I can put it. Absolutely horrible the flavors were way off and definitely not Thai food. There was barely any chicken in my food and when I told them they said it’s a new chicken they are using that’s not an excuse for no chicken in my meal. The chicken wings from the sampler platter were bloody the owner or manager came out and said that it was normal, I am a cook for over 20 years and that is not normal for chicken wings to be bloody! Overall I will never come back here and will advise others to ovoid at all cost.
Mmmmm. Thai food. I love Thai food, and this place came highly recommended to us by friends. I was looking through their website as we waited for our food, and what I love about them is that they are family-owned (yay! Local!), and they've been around for about 35 years! Best of all, they had at least two of my favorite dishes I've ordered from other Thai restaurants! The other thing I love about this place is that they actually use fresh Thai peppers for spice instead of the dried (I prefer the fresh, I think it gives the dish more flavor that way). A word of caution: if you think white pepper is too spicy, you may want to stick to something no hotter than medium.....unless you're congested, then, by all means, order the Thai hot. For me, between medium and hot was just right!
Food is very good. Our waitress was pleasant even though she was very busy! I loved the Tom Yum vegetable soup and would have been happy with that as my meal instead of an appetizer!
