I had dinner here and went because it had great reviews. I lowered my expectations upon arrival and resigned myself to a mediocre meal, based upon first impressions. Boy, was I wrong!
Located in the corner of a parking lot in a mall, I walked in to instructions to order at the counter, and pay when I ordered.
Honestly the layout isn’t very welcoming, and there was a pungent smell of fish sauce (pretty sure that is what it was).
I ordered the Pad Kra Kao with beef, asking for a level 5 heat, paid and found a table (easy, as there was only one table occupied).
In short order my dish arrived, and it looked fine, not amazing.
I took a bite and was shocked by the flavor - it was incredible and spicy! I like heat in my Thai food but I am glad I didn’t order it any hotter; they don’t fool around.
The sauce was fabulous and as weird as it sounds, the rice was out of this world… it looked like your standard cup of white rice but the texture was perfect and it had wonderful flavor.
I’m usually good for about 1/2 a serving and will take the rest of my plate home for another meal, but I ate all of it. I was stuffed but between the flavors and the spiciness, it was addictive.
The service was excellent and I was checked on throughout my meal.
I am only in town for another few days but will be back at least once more before I go!
I will say, they seem to do a primarily to go business; if I lived in town that would probably be my...
Read moreDo you like Pho? I really do! I tried this restaurant for the first time for lunch today. I order Pho chicken. I gladly wore my mask and waited outside for them to bring me my meal for take home, which was within 8 minutes! Here's the highlights: Broth in separate container. Pho, sprouts, basil, chicken and 2 individual sauce packets and lime in separate container. Ie, no soggy veggies! Throw together in a deep bowl at home, microwave for a minute to heat and eat. Generous portions! Excellent flavor, amazing amount of basil, which I love in pho. Pho noodles not overcooked which is a biggy. I completely enjoyed this meal! It was wonderful! If you haven't tried this place you should! Ps, the broth was soooo good, I drank it all! Recommend you try a bit of red sauce first as it has some yummy heat. Update: I simply can't say enough good things about this food. I took the family twice for sushi. It was simply amazing. A wonderful experience. Love! Love!
Update: Took my family to dine in for sushi. What an awesome experience! We had the california, the spicy tuna, the vegetarian, the fire dragon and the amazing ultimate. I can't remember having so much fun sharing a meal out in a long time. Great food!...
Read moreThis is a small place by the Albertsons store on 12th & Greenhurst. Due to a shortage of staff, one must go to the counter to order, but they do bring the meal out. The menu is fairly large, and they have different prices for lunch and dinner items. There is a self service cola dispenser for refills. Service was good and the food was cooked fresh.
The squeeze and I both got the Chicken Pad Kra Pao lunch specials, hers with six spicy Tuna Rolls and mine with six California Rolls. We swapped a few rolls, as seen in the picture. The serving of rice was large, and the chicken and vegetables were cooked nicely. We ordered both with a "5" level of spice. Mine was a bit spicy, but hers wasn't at all. We both used some Sriracha sauce to give us a little more heat. We will be back, but will probably go with the "8" level next time.
The sushi rolls were great, good flavor and didn't fall apart.
The only complaint we had was the plates were cold, so the food was not steamy hot.
All in all, quite an...
