"I've seen other reviews mentioning this, and I just have to share my experience. The chicken I had was extremely suspicious. I don't usually leave reviews, but this felt necessary. It didn't taste, look, smell, or feel like chicken at all. It was rubbery and didn't shred like chicken should. The texture and flavor were just off—something didn't seem right. Honestly, we even joked that it might be some other bird, like duck or something else. I really have no idea. I initially thought it might have been how it was cooked, but then I found a lump that made everything even stranger. My boyfriend and I were both baffled about what kind of meat we were eating. If anyone has an explanation for this, I would love to hear it, because what I was served was definitely not chicken."

Just ok. Not authentic. No Thai flavors of lemongrass, lime etc. Essentially mediocre Chinese. Thai iced tea is good.

Drunken noodles are great, as soon as we ordered anything else we found out why some of the reviews of this place are so bad. Never ordering from here again.

I visited a nearby business and opted for takeout since there are no tables available. I ordered the coconut noodles with vegetables and tofu, and it was very flavorful. I will definitely be going back. Food: 5/5 View menu

We love their food. We get the chicken pad Thai pineapple fried rice with shrimp. The curry is delicious. Soups salads. I haven’t had one dish we didn’t love. I actually crave this food especially when I need comfort foodVegetarian options: A good selection of vegetarian options

I apologize, but have you ever tasted authentic tom yum soup? This has nothing in common with real tom yum. It might be a kind of demo version, but it’s definitely not Thai tom yum. I enjoy Chinese food as well, but please don’t refer to this soup as tom yum. Also, it was overly sweet.

I love Thai food, but Thai Basil was disappointing. I ordered the green curry. It was just okay. I had the food delivered. The curry separated and had to be mixed before eating. The spice was decent, but it lacked a bit of flavor. I'm probably not going to order from here again.Food: 3/5 View menu

I just ordered a grilled steak salad. I can handle raw meat without any issues, but I wasn't given the option to choose it cooked instead. They just tossed it in the salad and sent me on my way. Additionally, I discovered that their chili sauce has a soap-like taste. I'm not sure what they used, but I've never had any problems with regular chili before.

"When we called to reserve a table, no one informed us that there was a dining time limit of 1.5 hours. My friend wanted to invite more people to join us for dinner, but I was unsure if everyone would agree to the minimum charge of $60, including taxes and tips. I confirmed a reservation for 7 people during my second call, but ultimately, only 6 of us showed up. The table we were given was quite small, making it uncomfortable for six people, especially with the mandatory minimum spending of $60, as well as a 20% tip. For just two people, the minimum tip is 18%. I was confused about the dining time limit—was it two hours or 1.5? The party area was limited to just the backyard for additional seating. I was with friends who didn’t know the group well, and we arrived early at 3 PM, but we couldn’t wait until 6:30 PM. That’s why we ended up sitting at a separate table for two. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t seem to care and couldn’t arrange for us to be seated closer together. We had no choice in the matter. To make matters worse, the female waiter had a poor attitude. It felt like we were dining in a sidewalk market. She questioned another girl who served me ponzu sauce, apparently because I looked impatient when I saw her face. Her attitude only worsened after that. It seems like they need to train their employees better, as they seem unaware of how to provide good service. As for the food, it was just okay, typical of basic Japanese cuisine. There were too many restrictions! Customers are forced to adhere to the restaurant’s rules and limitations. I cannot recommend this place unless someone is specifically looking for a fast-food experience. In short, I don’t think I’ll be returning next time."
