“The Jasmine rice was benign but we loved the fried rice with the curry”
I ordered Thai fried rice and it doesn’t have any of the vegetables that were listed in the description.
I went there yesterday with my partner. Looking at the reviews, I had high expectations.

“Really good and fresh food.”
Really good and fresh food. The service was very nice and the shop owner was very caring as well as provided us with hot tea at no cost as it was below freezing temperature outside. Definitely coming back to try the drunken noodles.

“I wanted Panang Curry downtown and found this place, it was the closest to me that sold Panang Curry.”
I wanted Panang Curry downtown and found this place, it was the closest to me that sold Panang Curry. This food here is on point! I’ve had the Green and Panang curries, Panang is still my favorite. I’ll be coming to this place a lot.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our meal.”
We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We ordered Panang curry with chicken medium spice and fried rice with chicken (could use more veggies). The spice was 100% accurate and gave us with the heat we wanted. The portion is light and thankfully we were not too hungry and shared it with the fried rice. It definitely needs a little more sauce and chicken. The Jasmine rice was benign but we loved the fried rice with the curry! Younes’s using a kiosk and it’s super easy. Definitely recommend!

“The most accommodating and tasty thai food I’ve had since visiting Thailand.”
The most accommodating and tasty thai food I’ve had since visiting Thailand. The owner and the family are very sweet, and will accommodate whoever walks through the door. They put an extra table in the middle of the restaurant for us, and made us feel welcome. The food was delicious and cooked to order. You can definitely tell the place is run with love! Prices are extremely reasonable and portions are great! Definitely worth a visit.

“Delicious food hidden away in downtown.”
Delicious food hidden away in downtown. We stopped in for lunch and ordered the basil ground chicken (Thai spicy) and pad see-ew (spicy). Both were full of flavor and met pur spice expectations at an affordable price. The dining space is limited, but I would definitely go back or order take out from here. Quick and friendly service!

“Really awesome “hidden gem”.”
Really awesome “hidden gem”. The food was timely and excellent. The place is clean, although is fairly small and has limited seating, and the menu was clear and concise. Owner is super nice and kind. Some of the best Thai food I had.
