"Most nearby Thai restaurants are closed on Sundays, so this was a pleasant surprise that they open on a Sunday. We ordered by phone without even looking at the menu, and the staff knew what the dishes we asked are. All came down to $60+, on the expensive side but it 's fine we are trying for the first time. Said the order ready in 15 min which is pretty fast compared to others. The interior was fancier than many other Thai because it has a bar. But that also gives you an idea that the food is more tailored for American taste buds. Pad Thai Tofu there 's a lack of the Pad Thai strong fermentation flavor, so while it probably appeases the general public, it doesn 't have that unique flavor that so many can 't stand. It 's more like tomato ketchup noodles, which is delicious in itself, but just not what I think is a good pad thai. Severely lacking the sour profile. Additional missing ingredients is bean sprouts! Instead they have red and white chopped cabbage. Again, while pretty delicious, it 's just lacks the authentic flavor , even tho the dish itself is not authentic by any means. Tofu is fried and just OK. They still had the crushed peanuts so that 's good. My husband likes this better than the more authentic version. Pad kee mao beef this was really really disappointing. While it 's good that it 's not spicy (I 've never had a pad kee mao that 's not spicy... because our kids can eat it, the flavor is nothing like pad kee mao. Just salty, particularly the eggs. Flavor of basil is very very muted and limited. Beef cuts are tough to chew. They didn 't give a lot of noodles but gave a lot of veggies, which is great!! But the veggies are like not authentic to Thai food, it 's just mixed Asian stir fry veggies like mini corn and water chestnut. Along with bell peppers. Very interesting and weird combo. I like the veggie component, it 's just not what I could consider pad kee mao. Probably wouldn 't order again. Completely missing the taste profile. Lad nar beef this wasn 't bad, but they used Chinese broccoli instead? Beef is not coated or tenderized so it 's tough to eat. Sauce is OK, but lack the sweetness. Just very muted Thai flavors to appease the general public. If you are looking for strong Thai flavors, this place is not it. The food itself is still tasty. This one is not as weird as pad kee mao. Probably would order again for the kids. Fish cake appetizer this imo was done better than other places, I liked how fluffy and fried it is, it 's much softer than other places. Loved the spices and herby tastes, which is similar to others. Probably sourced from the same place so it generally tastes similar. The dipping sauce has cucumber and crushed peanuts like other places. A bit more syrupy than other places but tastes the same. Thai iced tea this one I think it 's done better than other more traditional Thai places. I liked the distinction of the tea flavor at the bottom and the milk up top. It doesn 't taste like premade mix like other places even if they used the same method. I can actually taste the tea here. Also love the handle and design of the carry out version. Would order again! Overall I think it 's a pretty OK place for Thai food. Something fast and edible, and fancier than others. The portion size is equal or smaller than other places. I think I might reserve this place as a second option for Sunday cravings of Thai food."
