heidi harmanJuly 21, 2015This is an Asian restaurant extra ordinaire worth an extra visit for the well prepared tastes and swedish furniture. Theres so much love here.- Taylor LeeMay 3, 2018Everything here is very authentic and delicious. My favorites are the Nam Tok Beans, Caramelized Pork Belly and the Mushroom Hor Mok Terreine!
Chad BApril 17, 2017From the top left: Massaman Nuea, Carmelized pork belly, white rice in pot and Yaowaraj Noodles. Yummy!!
Every dish was fantastic. Wings and noodles were two standouts, but I can't wait to return and try the rest of the menu.
BommySeptember 18, 2014Mushroom hor mok and sai ua (grilled thai pork sausage) lettuce wraps are on point. Skip chicken fat rice and black rice pudding dessert; nothing special.
KarenJanuary 14, 2023The caramelized pork belly was the definition of "melts in your mouth". Highly recommend the brussels sprouts, too.
Mikuláš ŠkorpilJuly 3, 2018The food was intermediate and the servers couldn't properly speak english. Overall the place was clean and nice. I can recommend the Crispy Chicken Sandwich.
JoAnne KaoDecember 11, 2014Pork belly! Delicious beef soup and braised beef. Everything's good. Go hungry.
Tanusree MunshiJanuary 5, 2020Get the mushroom terrine!! So good. You can also ask for extra crackers
Natalia FigueroaJuly 26, 2018Came for birthday dinner with family style pre-fix! That’s the way to do it. Squid and pork belly 🙌🏽
Daniel MarkhamJune 29, 2017Admittedly, the rabbit curry is nearly all I've had … or at least all I remember. But oh my, is it ever worth remembering!
Elliott PoppelAugust 15, 2014Pad kee mao (spicy stir-fried "drunken noodles" with pork); green curry with rabbit; grilled Northern Thai sausage
LL JordanAugust 30, 2016love this place. get here early lines get long. great service and spicy spicy dishes. not for the weak- The caramelized pork belly w/ sticky rice is a must. Throw in the salted duck egg if it calls to you
Sydney MApril 8, 2019Must get the Butterfly Collins blue and refreshing cocktail and pork belly with sticky rice. Yum
ivy♥January 7, 2015As a Thai, it's my duty to tell you all that our cuisine is customized to diners' palette. So when they refused to make chili paste (Nam Prik) the way I asked for (really spicy), I knew it's not legit
Serious EatsMarch 5, 2014Promising Thai restaurant from Pim Techamuanvivit of the food blog Chez Pim and Chef Michael Gaines (formerly of Manresa).
Jinnie LMarch 8, 2015Their hot wings n pork belly r so delicious~ friendly staff n yummy authentic Thai food :)
Jackie LeeFebruary 23, 2018You might be able to get the dessert during lunch hours (black sticky rice), ask your server! :)- jcIISeptember 29, 2022Everything. If you're not into very spicy food definitely ask your server for guidance.
Josh ChuaMay 13, 2016Get everything the menu dares you to. Ribs and laab kua are great but skip the wings—way too sweet.
- David AndersonJune 10, 2019Can’t go wrong, fantastic place. Chicken with noodles in curry was amazing!
Michael KjærsgaardJanuary 16, 2019Great service and the best thaifood I have ever had! Nice size and very fresh.
Kseniya MakarovaJanuary 8, 2016The wings have a crazy unique flavor combo, all the food is bomb, cocktails are intriguing
One of our favorite restaurants in the city. Chinatown noodles are so addictive.
Charles Lee-thorpMay 16, 2017Chicken wings. No they are not like other chicken wings you have had at Asian restaurants. These will blow your tongue out of your face.
David SmithFebruary 16, 2018I had the chicken sandwich. Don’t expect traditional Thai dishes. More new cuisine with Thai flavors...
- Frances JamesDecember 1, 2014Really good upscale Thai - with great cocktails. Try the Mushroom Hor Mok Terrine
Jussi HäyhäNovember 4, 2015The vegeterian option is the vegetable panang. It's very spicy and delicious!
Kait GaissMay 13, 2016By far the best Thai place in the city and Larry's roommate is a sous chef there.
Allison BanksMarch 14, 2014Amazing. Great drinks from Trick Dog crew. Incredible innovative Thai food. Go.
Shirley LiuDecember 29, 2014Def try the pork belly! The mushroom hor mok was fine but not deserving of all the hoopla. The Kao soi gai was decent but make sure you're ok with more fried noodles than soup noodles...
Steve SaundersDecember 17, 2015Not your typical Thai food. Delicious and unusual. I love the pork belly.
Annie ParkSeptember 17, 2016Unique cocktails to match the delicious food, sit at the bar for excellent service
Agatha YuNovember 11, 2014Inside the hotel. Probably more efficient to enter via the backstreet. Nice food but not mindblowing
Kevin de WitJune 4, 2014Good seasoned spicy food, fast and good service, nice ambiance and friendly people.

"Crispy eggplant curry is a standout. All dishes are bright, pungent, exciting—I loved it. If you're not adventurous and open to new experiences, I'd go elsewhere."
