Let us all support this and other local and family owned business.
I love this place so much.
I used to be one of their regular customers and became one of their lucky employees.
Yes, I used to be a regular customer and not anymore because I moved out of Austin and now living in San Francisco. But before moving to a different state and city, I had the chance to be one of their amazing team for a year.
I know the inside and outside of the business.
I became their regular customer because the first time I ate here, I was treated so much kindness, care and love. From the host, the busser, the server and the owner. They were all so hands on in making sure that I'll be comfortable and in good hands. It wasn't only the service that striked me. It was also their authentic and sumptuous food.
And then, some personal things happened and shifted. A friend of mine told me that they are hiring, I applied and the owner was very happy and kind to accept me. The team was very eager and patient to teach me. I worked in the kitchen as a prep, a QA, then as a server.
When I became one of their employees, I understood how much pressure and stress the employees get whenever it get busy, whenever customers act like they're above everyone else. The employees of this restaurant are the doing the best they could to give the best service and the best food possible.
I know that this is a business, but in my personal experience, for some people who think that this is just a business for people who are trying their best to make a living, well, for the staff of this restaurant, this is their livelihood.
It's sad that people would want this business to suffer and close. You can give comments and feedback but at least do it humanely, do it with intergrity and not with hate and bitterness.
The owner of this restaurant always makes sure to give the best returns, love and care to its employees and I can attest to that.
I hope, this helps people realize that because you are paying someone it doesn't mean you have all the right to treat the staff and this...

This location shares parking with multiple other location so getting here in and out might be difficult.
It looks like a hole in the wall from the outside but inside it's nice and roomy with plenty of seating.
The gals that served us were absolutely kind gentle and a pleasure to work with.
They work hard and make sure everything is constantly clean and no matter how busy they are that you are treated warm and welcomed and make sure you are served quickly.
Restaurants to the back wall so clean and well kept. (Meaning plenty of soap, toilet paper, paper towels to dry hands)
My friend ordered pad Thai and I ordered the duck Curry and we were both blown away by the serving size for the money and a flavorful food that was served to us.
I brought my business friend with me and we both were full and satisfied by the time we were done here.
They even brought us some flavorful coconut to see us off and our server made sure see checked on us all along the way and even accommodated my request for hot water with lemon.
They even had an outlet thankfully at the front so my friend can charge his laptop while we ate.
Our server went above and beyond to make us feel warm accommodated than welcome despite being packed.
We will definitely be back as they used high-quality spices and food and we could definitely tell by the quality of the flavors textures smells and just overall phenomenal meal to hit the spot.
They have a wide variety menu for could just think about, date anybody's pallet so I highly...
Read morePro tip: if you want their noodle soups you can buy the EXACT brand MAMA at Wal-Mart for 48 cents. I was pretty disappointed to know that I paid $9 for a 48cent packet of noodles. Throwing some onions and bean sprouts in it doesn't make any difference, but leaving out ingredients that were listed in the description does. Good for them profit wise. My partner ordered red curry and what he got was some sort of soup. Nothing I had ever seen before as far a curry is concerned. It also included the ingredients that were supposed to be in my soup. They even screwed up the table behind us meals which were sent back. There was only 2 other tables aside from us, 6 patrons in total for the whole place. How could they screw up at all? I have only ever been here once before and had the pad Thai. And at least that was alright but I would hope so considering the restaurant name. Im not usually dissatisfied with food at any restaurant but this one takes the cake so far hence this review. I will stick to what I know is good. While it's not in the area, it's worth the trip. Go to 888 on...
