I ordered pad Thai, which had good flavor, so I'd rate it 3.5 out of 5. I also got fried wontons filled with chicken, and I'd give those a 3 out of 5. The prices were reasonable. However, the service was just okay and a bit slow. When we arrived, we had to go to the counter to let them know we needed a table, as no one greeted us at the door or asked how many were dining. They seated us in the middle of the restaurant, right under the air conditioning vent, which was blasting cold air. All the other tables around us were meant for four people, and since we were a party of five, this was our only option. After a while, we requested that they turn off the AC, which they did temporarily, but then they turned it back on. I understand they needed to keep the area cool since it seemed to be the only vent in the restaurant, and it likely got warm near the restrooms and other areas. Unfortunately, we were freezing because of the direct cold air, to the point where we were shivering, and one of my friends even got a runny nose during our hour-long visit. We ended up eating quickly and asked for boxes to take our food home because we didn't want to stay any longer. I overheard another table nearby complaining about the cold, even though they were wearing sweaters and weren't sitting directly under the vent. Also, just a heads up, they automatically added an 18% gratuity to our bill for our party of five. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant, as the food was average, and the service left much to be desired.
