Delicious Thai Food and Welcoming Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was wonderful! The food was both delicious and healthy. I particularly enjoyed the wrap, which was generously filled with greens and thinly sliced chicken breast, accompanied by a delightful green sauce. For those who enjoy a bit of heat, an additional packet of authentic Thai red chili spice is available. The beef soup was surprisingly flavorful for its simplicity, and I learned it's a family recipe, slow-cooked for 8 hours. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming and relaxing, and the host was very kind.

Excellent Food and Service!
I’ve visited this restaurant twice now, and both experiences have been excellent. The staff member who greeted me each time was genuinely kind and welcoming, which really sets a positive tone. Service is impressively quick, and the atmosphere is warm. The Pad Thai here stands out. While you can find Pad Thai anywhere, this version gets the balance just right— seasoned with that ideal mix of savory and sweet without being too salty. The portions are generous (I couldn’t finish in one sitting), and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and quantity. On my second visit, they surprised me with a complimentary cup of beef soup, which was a thoughtful touch. It’s clear they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. For a restaurant that just opened in the last two months, they’re already doing things right. I’m confident this place will be around for a long time, and I’ll definitely be back.
