Love the atmosphere inside... Must order Tom yum goong soup! As per the main dish, i suggest you indulge ur tastebuds with pad Thai and the infamous curry chicken (red) !! Bon apatite !!Upvote3Downvote
🌵Andrew Kolikoff🌵October 9, 2014Cute little stand alone downtown gem. Very cozy outdoor seating. Oh and the Thai food... very good. Get the Beef Panang.Upvote2Downvote- Todd WeisrockMarch 7, 2015The Penang curry is fantastic, and they will make it with chicken, even though it is with beef on the menu. The pad Thai and wild boar are also really good!!UpvoteDownvote
Edward GormanApril 26, 2015The tom yum soup has tomato in it. It is a different taste, all in all a great thai place but not the best in the valley.

Aaron BlumenthalOctober 29, 2012There's a special place in Thai hell for people who do not order the beef panang and, once you try it, you'll spend the rest of your life trying to eclipse its magnificence to no avail.

Leah StarrSeptember 15, 2010THE best Thai food in phx, right off the light rail. Try the pad thai and tom yum soup. Generous portions and intimate atmosphere. New to Thai? Be sure to clarify your spice level.Upvote4Downvote

Chris SFebruary 14, 2015Not any better or worse than the average thai joint. Yellow curry was tasty but not exceptional. Thai tea was orange sugar syrup. On the pricy side. Swaddee, Siamese Cat, Thai house, Yuphas are betterUpvoteDownvote
Tessa MalayanJuly 3, 2013Delicious! The pad cha seafood was just the right amount of heat and flavor :)Upvote1Downvote
Louis IzquierdoApril 25, 2014Pretty good. Definite will return for am other lunch. Goid prices alsoUpvoteDownvote
Genevieve RiceDecember 31, 2011Kao Pad Joy (fried rice with seasonal vegetables) is one of the best Thai dishes I've ever had. However, service tends to be on the slow and rude side.Upvote1Downvote
Jose MenendezSeptember 6, 2011Sit at the bar and watch the magic happen. Order anything Thai hot and cool off with the best iced tea in town.UpvoteDownvote
Melissa ThompsonApril 1, 2016Ginger chicken and Peanut chicken lunch specials are yummy.UpvoteDownvote
Desert WildmanMay 15, 2012Decent food, smaller portions. Clueless service with a smile, when she was available. It seems the servers also help prepare the food. Bar selection is abysmal. Nowhere close to best Thai in area.UpvoteDownvote
Tim McBrideJune 9, 2012Just finished the corn fritter app. Perfect balance of sweet and hot. Yum!UpvoteDownvote
They serve a delicious beef panang and hot jasmine teaUpvoteDownvote
