“ This restaurant offers delicious food, with large portions, at an amazing value. I'll be honest, I didn't expect to love the food as much as I did. The sauce in the curry was so rich and flavorful, the meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly, and the sticky rice was a great match. If you're craving Thai food, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I will say, however, the restaurant could use a few upgrades in decor, and serving water in beer glasses was an odd choice. ”

“ Ordered 1. Lemongrass soup was very delicious and for something that has chili flakes was surprisingly sweet. Notified it may be due to the galangal. 2. Calamari was not that expensive, which surprised me because the plate that came out was a lot for two people. Tasted great, wish I had more. 3. Traditional pad thai with shrimp was the other guests option. Tasted good, loved it with the peanuts . Overall, the experience was good and mildly surprising because the place is slightly small, tucked away and affordable. Just never expected it to pack a punch. Be prepared to take home and this place is a definite return . ”
“ The food was absolutely delicious ! The place is kind of small and doesn’t look fancy but with what you will get, it’s absolute worth it. The prices are very reasonable, you have diner combo available for 2. The quantity were a bit too much for what I like to eat but I got a too go with the rest. Definitely a place you have to try if you are around ! ”
“ Ordered the basil fried rice, pineapple fried rice, and red curry with coconut rice. The curry broth was extremely flavourful, and the creamy texture of it was perfect, one of the best curries I’ve ever had. Both rice dishes have the perfect amount of spice to them, and great meat ratio. ”
“ The food here is top notch and I’m angry I didn’t try it sooner. Chicken satay came with a generous amount of peanut sauce and mango salad, and it was so flavourful and fresh! The pad sew was absolutely incredible, best smokey flavour I’ve had in a long time. They’re clearly not shying away from the heat required for these dishes! The curry was one of the recommended items and didn’t disappoint, creamy and thick, rich coconut and peanut flavour that got cooked right into the small bites of chicken. The staff were all smiles and were so attentive! Thank you for a great meal! ”
“ Vegetarian review The best Thai curry in town. Their mango salsa is a MUST MUST try. Their green curry is a perfect blend of taste and goes perfect with sticky rice. This has become my go to place for take outs. There food is filling but not heavy in stomach. I really want to appreciate their packaging. They use cardboard after every box to keep all food stable in the bag. The staff is kind and sweet. DISCOUNT TIP : Pickup food over 20 bill and pay with cash, you get 10% off. ”
“ Really like here’s food and services. Such a nice owner with great recommendation!Definitely back again! Thanks so much for everything! ”
