Hidden Treasure! Delicious! VERY Fresh! High quality ingredients, amazing presentation and felt gourmet at Strip Mall prices! Very clean, friendly and we highly recommend eating here!
We were starving after a Costco run. Google directed us easily down the street. Located in a strip mall with a Dry Cleaner near by. We were expecting a dive but were more than pleasantly surprised to find a cute, inviting and clean, welcoming restaurant.
The menu has staple Thai dishes but there were a few bonus dishes. Everything looked delectable!
We started with the “Chive Cakes”. (Pan-fried rice flour stuffed with chives; Served with sweet soy sauce.) Excellent presentation and flavors!
For dinner, We ordered the “Lime Leaf Turmeric Noodles with Beef” (Your choice of protein stir-fried with wide rice noodles, turmeric powder, garlic, onions, green onions, bean sprouts, broccoli, and carrots.) with 3 stars spicy. Absolutely delicious. Perfect blend of textures, fresh veggies, and savory beef.
We also ordered “Ginger Dish with Chicken 3 stars spicy” (Your choice of protein stir-fried with ginger, garlic, celery, onions, green onions, carrots, and mushrooms.) Damn! I loved this! The fresh ginger made the plate pop with flavor. The yummy sticky Jasmine rice soaked up the sauce perfectly. I couldn’t eat it all. I am looking forward to leftovers tomorrow.
Even the water is classy. It tasted infused with lemon grass or Basil. I should have asked. It was delicious.
I really enjoyed dinner. The booth was comfortable and the music was very nice. This place is way out the way for us BUT it will definitely be a future...

the Penang Curry has a generous amount of kefir lime leaf which is actually kind of unusual and hard to get here. However, since the name is lime leaf restaurant, they are doing an excellent job. My order at two stars. It was spicy for an American palette but just perfect for me. Also, it was the most generous portion of Penang Curry and the prices are really reasonable. Also, I enjoyed the pad Thai and I'm taking the vegetable delight to go home with me.
There was an observation that sometimes strip mall restaurants tend to be better because they have to really serve a demanding clientele and these guys do it beautifully.
The rice portions are for teeny American appetites. I needed to order a double portion and they should really have takeout menus cuz it's an opportunity lost not to be able to have something that I can put in my car and remind me where to pull over and get some good food. I'm not going to remember this place in order to get to their website. This is not near my home so I only get down here once every couple of years.
2022 Agree with other reviewer. REALLY good food. The Chiang Mai Curry is the best thing outside of northern Thailand. The crispy noodles on top with real lime leaves, ...
Read moreLast week, it was closed as New Management came in. I adored the previous family who ran this business. While I wasn't a frequent customer, they recognized me, and if there was time, they chatted with us.
It's freshly painted and nice and clean. I hope they bring in new decor as it's a bit plain.
Their combo menu looks okay, I hope they bring in a lunch menu. I ordered Larb, one of my favorite dishes that I can't seem to get right at home.
I was disappointed when I was offered a side of sticky rice to go with my larb instead of Jasmine. I wasn't paying attention and said yes, instead of asking for Jasmine rice. I said that wasn't what I was expecting, and the server said that is exactly what sticky rice is like in Thailand and asked if I had ever had Thai food before. Never once did she say, "Oh, you're describing Jasmine rice," Is it possible she offered sticky rice because it's twice as much?
Here's their new menu and the learn which was diced meat instead of ground. There were lots of fresh herbs, but little cabbage or lettuce to make it a salad. I guess you could say it's a great dish of protein. I do miss the previous recipe. It left me warm and...
