Unfortunately, I should have waited because the pad Thai was very disappointing and the portions were small. It tasted and looked like Kraft dinner with ketchup, and the noodles were clumped together. The spring roll was strange because the rice paper was thick, making it feel more like a deep-fried wonton than a traditional spring roll. The mango salad wasn't terrible, but the basil was wilted and starting to turn brown. Overall, I would not recommend this place. You might as well eat at Thai Express and save $65.

This restaurant may have the best vegan pad Thai I've ever tried. The staff was also amazing. read more This restaurant may have the best vegan pad Thai I've ever tried. The staff was also amazing.

Before handing me my takeaway order, thwy double checked to make sure I was given soy sauce instead of fish sauce, I appreciate that I didn't have to check myself The mock chicken was delightful and abundant!
