The drunken noodles, the soups, the fried rice...all yummy!
by Ida B.
The duck curry is fabulous.
by Laura Phan
Love vibe here in Old Town. Start w/Tod Mun and Wontons. Go-to entrees: Red curry, drunken noodle, and pineapple fried rice are dang good. Staff tend to speed thru service. Slow them down.
by Eric D
Food is delicious. The spiciness scale is on the spicier side, so if you're not adventurous, scale back the number you choose.
by Joe T.
Mm spicy soups. The Tom Yum is a favorite- caution though, spicy is SPICY. Good way to wake up for your afternoon. Often very crowded

I have been here well over 100 times. Food is more consistently good than most Thai locations, and service is usually quick and gregariously friendly.

We had great service here. The egg roll appetizers are cheap and delicious. Two egg rolls cut in half with amazing sauce. It has peanut bits in it though.
