I'd say the only thing I enjoyed was the fried rice. We left a small tip only because service wasn't up to par. We asked for Sriracha sauce and she gave us a chili sauce. I walked upfront and asked again, she made a comment that their Thai boat is made the way it is, but I wanted dry chili and sriracha anyways. It should be up to me to add addtnl condiments the way I want my food. Then the ribs came out over cooked and the ends of the meat was burnt. The wontons were over cooked. The tofu was under fried so the coating wasn't up to par with the texture of deep-fry as per most Thai restaurants I have gone to. When I left outside, the waitress made a crude comment questioning my partner on how our tip wasn't enough. Who does that? Knowing how my partner was and his kind ❤️, he tipped her to her liking and we left. Never ever going back again. Small town, only asian spot we found. If tip was to be included, please include it on our check. Otherwise, if it's optional, with your bad judgmental, no filter, customer service attitude, you will lose support. Never going back again. I'm asian, my taste buds knows....
Read moreIs it "authentic" Thai, well, no. You can't really get that in the states anyway. Is it good Thai? For this little corner of the world it'll satisfy that craving for a Thai inspired meal. Service was fine although I think the owner was truly juggling a lot of online pick up orders and our one table by herself. We did get there early before the regular waitress arrived. All things considered she paced it pretty well and we were in no hurray anyway. We loved the red seafood curry but the scallops were off and we let them know. Loved the drunken noodles but I am curious as to what this trend of sweet flavors seeming to permeate Thai food at times. Wasn't just here but others I have been to recently. Being a chef I understand that palm sugar is integral to Thai food but it should still have that balance of hot, sweet, sour, salty. I think they are reluctant to use the Na Plam and feel like the general public likes it sweet. Just some musings there. I hope they read this and the next time I go, when I try the ubiquitous Pad Thai that it will be low on sweet and more on umami. Still, this place has heart. Show...
Read moreThis is an unassuming little Thai restaurant right next to Jamba. It’s one of those hole in the walls that will knock your socks off!
We ordered the chili & basil chicken and spicy fried rice. We asked for medium spice and both dishes were perfectly balanced with the flavors and just the right amount of heat. The spicy fried rice had such a depth to it, very impressed. This was for the lunch special and was fairly priced. Only mistake, and I didn’t realize till hours later, I did not receive my egg roll that came with the lunch special but that ok bc I left super happy and the portion size was more than enough.
We have lived in the Sacramento region for almost a decade and have yet to find a Thai restaurant as good as what we had in the Bay Area, till we came here. It is authentic tasting and not “watered down”. We live along the 99 and will be making the 40 min drive to this place monthly-it’s that good. The owners would just LOVE for u to give them a chance, they are very sweet. Don’t sleep on this place bc it’s unfamiliar or unassuming!...
