This was a restaurant I stumbled upon while buying egg tarts nearby at Phu’s bakery. They have a lot of options and have large portions. I had bought the dishes home. Pad see ew, rad na (thick rice noodles with gravy), and pad soon sen. these were all delicious. The catfish dish was alright. I probably won’t order that again as it was quite hard and sweet. Service was good for to-go. Ambiance: They have quite a bit of seating and can accommodate large groups.

Overall, it was a good experience. The pad Thai noodles tasted a little different. I can't put my finger on the seasoning, but it wasn't bad. The satay chicken and egg rolls were very good. The chicken fried rice was very good and of course the Thai tea was great. The teen worker wasn't very attentive, and you could tell she didn't want to be there, but I was a teen once, so I get it.

This place was great especially for Thai food in the SGV area. We got the Atlantic crab fried rice. Southern curry noodle and Tay jew noodle dish. They were all flavorful, good amount of meat and worth the cost. The staff was very attentive and nice and it's nice to have a go to spot for Thai food in the SGV area. The place was very quiet and not too loud and lots of other places nearby for dessert or coffee.

Totally authentic Thai food in the SGV. Really friendly staff and delicious food. We ordered four dishes and all four tasted just like what we get in Bangkok - but much larger American-sized portions. Especially recommend the pork larb and grilled pork neck. Thai tea was also spot on. Food can be done to whatever level of spiciness you prefer.

I came here with 2 of my friends on a Saturday evening. It wasn't too busy so we got seated right away. We ordered a few dishes to share: Tom Yum Chicken, Golden Duck Curry & Flaming Drunken Noodle with chicken. We got the dishes mild for spiciness. The soup and the noodles were delicious and enough to share for 3 people. I personally didn't like the duck curry as much. I would like to come back and try their other curry dishes.

Drunken noodle - tasty noodle - recommended Esaan Sausage - something different (pork sausage with rice and garlic) eat with red onion, peanut, ginger and cabbage - not bad Basil with ground chicken - so so, taste on sweeter side Chinese Broccoli with crispy pork - average - some other restaurant like Pa Ord is better (bigger pork and tastier) Thai Tea — too sweet Service —- excellent, friendly Restaurant —- clean Parking —- crowded
