I inquired with the server if they could prepare a pad see ew without egg or fish sauce, but she said it wasn't possible. I then asked if there was any dish available without fish sauce, to which she also replied no. As a result, I ended up ordering plain fried tofu and tried to make it into a meal. It seems like this might be the last vegan-friendly Thai restaurant I visit.
I had a positive experience when placing my order over the phone. The staff was friendly and helpful, but I was disappointed to find out that the restaurant did not have a website. I had to search on Google to find their menu, which turned out to be outdated. Despite this, I ordered the vegan pad Thai and pineapple curry, both customized with tofu to make them vegan. The staff willingly accommodated my requests.
Honestly, the food wasn't great - it was watered down and tasted gross. However, the real issue was the customer service. I observed poor service towards myself and another customer. Customer service is essential in the food industry, and if I receive bad service, I will not be returning.
I visited this restaurant once during my college days and was not impressed. However, my friends were hyping it up so I decided to give it another try. Unfortunately, it was just as I remembered. The portions were large, but the flavor and service left much to be desired. The pad Thai was overly wet, almost like a soup. The restaurant was very dark, which I believe was intentional, but I shouldn't have to use a flashlight to see. When my baby accidentally dropped a fake lantern on our table, the waitress seemed upset and took it away, leaving us without any light. Additionally, if you change your mind about an order, they may force it on you. Despite this, the dessert we tried was surprisingly the best thing we ate at the restaurant.
The food at this restaurant is amazing. I have only had Thai food a few times before, but this was the best I've ever had. The service was quick and attentive - they refilled my water regularly and the food arrived within 10 minutes, fresh and delicious. The mango curry was sweet with perfectly ripe mangos, and the Seafood Paradise dish had 5 different types of seafood that were lightly fried for a perfect crunch. The duck was also incredibly delicious, soft and well marinated. The atmosphere of the restaurant was cozy and homey, like a nice dinner at Grandma's house. I would definitely recommend this place, 10/10.
