Impressed by Yellow Curry and Spicy Noodles!
My husband and I tried this place for the first time this evening and were super impressed! We did the takeout option, however the inside is very cute. The yellow curry and spicy noodles are delicious and have a good ratio of veggies and meat. We will be back soon!

Disappointing Takeout Experience
We ordered takeout after a long day of driving, hoping for a satisfying dinner. My initial suspicion arose when the food was handed to me in the car, lacking the usual aromatic quality of Thai cuisine. Upon reaching our hotel just five minutes later, our disappointment grew. The noodles and rice were overcooked to a mushy consistency, and the entire meal was flavorless and completely bland. We couldn't even finish it and had to order from another place.

Inedible Fried Rice - A Disappointing Experience
My first visit to this restaurant was unfortunately a very negative one. I ordered a fried rice dish with chicken and shrimp, but it was completely inedible. The dish lacked any discernible flavor, and the pineapple tasted like nothing. There was an odd and not good flavor to the entire dish, which led me to throw it out. The reviewer's experience with the food was extremely poor, with the dish being inedible.

Disappointing Thai Food Experience
I was excited to visit, as I love Thai food, but I was a bit disappointed. The service started off weird; the host was on the phone, acknowledged us, and told us to sit, but then made us wait about five minutes before attending to us, even though it wasn't busy and we were her third table. Regarding the food, the beef larb was very bland, definitely missing the essential rice powder and coriander. The meat tasted old, not bad, but close. The chicken chow mein was just okay, average. The beef spicy noodle was pretty good, but still average. The wonton soup was the best of the four dishes, but still only average.

Tiny Portions, Mediocre Flavor, Awful Deal
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The portions were tiny, and the food seemed premade with mediocre flavor. It felt like an awful deal. The only redeeming quality was that it was spicy enough. I received my food less than 5 minutes after ordering, which made me question if it was actually cooked fresh. I will not be returning and would not recommend this place.

Great Online Order & Pickup Experience
My experience ordering online and picking up was great. The restaurant offers great parking, and my order was ready when I arrived. The staff were friendly, and the restaurant itself was neat and clean. The food was also very good.

A Delicious Hidden Gem!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I absolutely love this place. The food is consistently hot and fresh, and the atmosphere is wonderfully quiet. It truly feels like the best-kept secret. I particularly enjoy the Tom Kha Soup, and honestly, every dish I've tried has been excellent. The lunch specials are also a great mid-day option.

Perfect Takeout, My Go-To!
I opted for take out, and as always, my meal was perfect – exactly what I was craving! The chicken satay was consistently tender, and the other appetizers were wonderfully crispy and tasty. I even have enough won-ton soup for lunch tomorrow! Kanda is my go-to when I don't feel like cooking.

Great Food, Amazing Value Near Seaworld!
Our family of 4 found ourselves as the only customers during our visit. The food was quite good, and the price truly stunned us! Given its proximity to Seaworld, it was the perfect way to end the day.
