Customer Reviews

"We came in on a Monday evening for dinner. The place wasn't crowded at all. I ordered the pork skewers for starters. They were good and cooked quickly. I also ordered the pad Thai chicken. The noodles were cooked perfectly and had a sweet flavor that I'm not used to. I'm used to the flavor being hot but it was good though. Good amount of chicken as well. The portion was enough to fill you up."

"Dined here for the first time yesterday. Ordered the beef Pad Thai by recommendation of other reviewers, and the Thai Tea after seeing one brought to another table. The Pad Thai was great, cooked all the way until the sauce caramelized, the edges of the noodles crisped a bit, and it had a full flavor. Many places undercook (I assume to make cleaning the wok easier). I ordered medium hot, and it was sufficiently hot, maybe a 7/10. The Thai Tea tasted fresh brewed, it was rich, had lots of milk and was very sweet. Service was decent, but could have been better, inside of restaurant was a bit underwhelming, half was closed with chairs on tables and boxes of supplies stacked up. This detracted from the atmosphere, but the food was amazing. I've eaten at over 30 Thai restaurants and the Pad Thai here is in my top 5 favorites."

"One of if not the best Thai food in the city. I've been going here for years and they have never once served me bad food. Every dish is bursting with flavor and can't be beat. Try the Thai spice at your own risk it is not for the weak."

- Jeffery P.

"I had not been here in years, but that will change. I forgot how good the food is. We ordered two plates of Duck Pad Thai without peanuts, and it was enough food to eat off three different times. It was so good! I'm looking forward to trying the lobster version next. I also recommend the sauce area. The one with the peppers is my kind of hot. The Thai tea was also on point. They use to have a lunch buffet, that I hope they bring back or still offer. This place is worth every penny."

"Most of the food is awesome here but I ordered the Tom Yum Tofu for the first time because I wanted non-spicy coconut soup and I would not recommend it. The tofu is fried and dry. It tasted like days old fried tofu. Fried tofu is not a good combination with coconut soup. The soup was awesome and flavorful, I had to remove all the tofu. "

"The ingredients were fresh and high quality. I ordered a summer role. Unfortunately the wrapper was stuck to the plate and it shredded when I tried to pick it up. Usually I dip them in the peanut sauce but here I was trying to grab individual components with my fingers. Without a knife there was no point. So, although this would have tasted amazing (beard on three components), the wrapper was simply too sticky to consume without knife and fork; you do not get a knife. So pad on these maybe. I ordered red curry chicken with bamboo extra spicy. I am happy to report that I considered it spicey. So my first spicey meal in Texas. Highly recommended. I think I usually see this dish named Gang Dang. Drinks are purchased by the can. I know they have come and Dr. Pepper. Unsure what else they have. I wanted to try their Thom Kha Goong (shrimp) but it is a dinner portion. The waiter took time to discuss the menu then left me alone. If I wanted something I needed to go to him. Enjoyed the meal and would come again, enjoyed the food."

- Andrew P.

"This is a gem of a place. It is nothing to look at and the inside is nothing special but the food is on point. Portion size is large. The food came out fast, hot and tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant. Order from the menu and you will not be sorry and you will not leave hungry."
