    Our party of 5 had a great time. Our servers were very knowledgeable and attentive to food restrictions and allergies in our group. Food was outstanding! Will be returning when back in the area!

    Restaurant is a cozy little place (which means that the tables are tightly spaced) and very convenient to Chinatown / Gallery Place. Staff is very attentive, and service is both exceptional and quick. The food is good, though not fantastic, but overall a good experience for quick Thai food.

    A just okay place. Tables are too close together. It's loud. The food tasted fine but I wouldn't go again.

    We made this reservation to celebrate a birthday, but they didn't do anything special. We were seated right by the entrance/stairs, so we heard everyone as they came/went and especially when they would take the stairs, so it was distracting. Food-wise, we ordered the duck rolls, curry chicken puffs, golden bag, drunken noodle, spicy curry noodle, pad thai, kra pow, and the roasted duck. We liked the drunken noodle and spicy curry noodle the best. They had good flavor and the right amount of spice. The rest were just okay. The one that ordered the roasted duck said the duck tasted old. Service was good. Staff was attentive.

    It was a very nice casual experience. The food was good and the service was great. The sound level was very nice and it was not noisy at all even though there were several customers. Would glad to go back again.
