I hate to be this way…. But it’s not the same. When it was first bought out and it was a tea room. They had sushi. Then the kind gentleman and his wife… which I believe were family took it over. That’s what he told me anyhow. They had sushi!!! I haven’t been there for about 3 years and it’s not the same. The sesame chicken is completely different. Different chicken, sauce/flavor….. presentation. I got the beef/tendon Pho.Good flavor and ingredients….. but it hardly had any meat in it. :(
I’m sad to say but today will most likely be my last visit. The waitress we had was sooo sweet tho. She did a really good job. The one dark haired waitress that worked there for years— idk what happened to her?? Probably covid. I don’t want to discourage anyone from trying their food. It’s still good. But not as great as before. It makes me sad. When you get used to a place and then it changes….. it’s just not the same. I do wish them the best. But my $87 will be spent somewhere else next time. :(
EDIT TO RESPOND TO OWNER: I’m not trying to say it’s bad… it’s just not same when the previous family member had it. It’s ok to have different tastes. And I DID have a restaurant/bakery before. I had to take the good with the bad. I’m just trying to state the food isn’t the same as when he ran/owned it. That’s why I made my review the way it was. It is my opinion and if you have people that love everything about you— don’t worry about me. I just wanted to point out I can tell that a new owner is present there. Have...
Read moreI am extremely picky and critical of food especially ordered through grub hub. I have to say Thai Pattaya is a new favorite though. I had chicken satay and the peanut sauce first and the sauce was absolutely perfect. I also ordered the pad Thai which was great especially when I poured my extra peanut sauce on top. My girlfriend ordered the pannang currey and loved it as well, although she would have liked the currey sauce a bit thicker. The best thing though and I cannot stress this enough.. Is the mango rice.. Oh my good heaven is it to die for. The rice gets this sticky sweet mango juice all over and the soft semi warm mangoes are soo soo sweet and good, if you don't order this with your next meal here you are crazy. Lastly I have to say about the staff. I have sadly never had a chance to eat here in person but I look at some of the bad reviews here and the main thing people complain about is ordering with grub hub and the food not being as fresh as dine In....well of course it can't be as amazing as dine in, sadly that's how it is everywhere but the most amazing part to me is that the owner takes time to respond to every single review he can good or bad, thanking people for good reviews and apologizing for any bad experience. You do Not get that kind of honorable service anywhere else that I have seen and personally I cannot WAIT to...
Read moreThis is such a hidden gem! My friend took me here recently and I am sad that I didn't know about this place earlier, despite living in the area for 5 years.
Most of the menu is gluten free, which is a huge plus for me since I'm celiac! I've had the red Thai curry with Tofu, the beef brisket pho, and the sticky mango rice dessert so far. All were delicious! Hot, well cooked, and tastes fresh. I love the side of Thai basil, lettuce, and bamboo shoots that come with the pho.
Quick heads up to fellow GF people: the hoisin sauce that comes on the side with a pho order is NOT gluten free. The spicy sauces are, though!
The tea selection is excellent, and you get a full pot served in a proper teapot. 🫖 I love the cup and saucers they offer, too; they're all different kinds of patterns and china. Just fun! I recommend the chai tea; sweet, hot, and strong. Very good for winter!
Service is lightning fast and the wait staff are all very friendly and polite. It hasn't been busy either times that I have visited, which makes it a great spot to catch up with friends or take a date.
It's a little dated looking inside but all the live, plotted plants are a lovely addition. I'm a fan and will...
