• 9/29/24The Pad Thai with Shrimp and Chicken is the best I have had in the Bay Area in a long time. The portions are very generous and the flavor is the right blend of spicy and sweet. My only regret is that my order only had 2 shrimp...TWO...they were jumbo shrimp and very delicious but 2?

• 3/24/26The Papaya salad was fresh and delicious, I love the taste and portion size. I would definitely order again, the Papaya salad here is a 5/5 and 10/10. The Thai Iced Tea is also a 5/5 and 10/10 and the bonus delicious tasty icing on this perfect cake for this lunch I had today :-)

• 5/2/26Good tasting filling meal with nice surprising flavors.
Papaya salad good but I am used to more of bright (sweet lime ) than savory (fish sauce) in this dish.
The red curry with anise sauce was absolutely delicious.
As was the fish in banana leaf but so small aprox 4x4x6 inches surprisingly.
High fats w/ oily food (d/n taste like corn oil TG) but it was filling. Fresh food. Nice.
Raw cabbage, spring onion, and green beans, though would be nice more carrot, zucchini, mushroom, broccoli. The darker tofu tasted flowery compared to the larger white tofu which tasted nice.
I generally avoid bean spouts per health dept warnings but they were included.
The no or mild spice is still spicy enough to feel it 20 after eating so had had milk and rice cake after.
Packaging was admirable with less plastic, and packaged attractively and sustainably. Wish more restaurants followed suit.

• 7/2/26The Famous Papaya Salad Platter was good. I loved the papaya salad. Sausages were really good. And chicken was good.
Keep in mind the papaya salad is traditional style meaning it's made with fish sauce so be prepared for the fish sauce umami smell when you open the sealed box if you've never had it lol
