Introducing my kids to the best Thai food in the state. I have ordered the same two dishes for almost 15 years. Never been disappointed. Thanks, Oh!

Great food! Had a squid spinach curry dish, and wife had pad Thai. At 2pm on a Saturday we had the place to ourselves.

Our favorite Thai spot hands down and we have been all over the city. We have been loyal customers for 10 years now and the food is the best and the owners are so sweet and hard working. Such a joy!

Absolutely delicious. I got the thai curry fried rice and it was very good. It came out relatively quickly, and the spice level was actually intense enough for my tastes. If you like it hot this place is great.

This is delicious Thai food- warm, sweet, spicy (if you want it), SO flavorful!! I got chicken egg rolls, Thai basil stir fry, and red curry. Everything was 10/10 and I will definitely come back again. Small, family owned business with a welcoming atmosphere and excellent customer service. Many drink options as well.
