    I had a lunch date with my mother and daughters yesterday. We ordered quite a few dishes to share. We ordered spicy noodles, crab rag-goons, spicy salad, the fried rice and chicken as our protein, some pork ribs, and the seafood dish. It's hard to say which was my favorite because it was all so delicious. Chefs kiss! The staff and service was awesome as well. Oh and they give you great portions and it's not too pricey. We will definitely be going back! Well deserved 5 stars

    Thai Tea

    We came here for a birthday dinner celebration to accommodate for our group's dietary needs which this place was perfect for. Inside was clean and not busy so we were seated and taken cared of quick. Waitres was friendly and nice. Helpful too with deciding on what to get. We ordered spicy noddles, peanut curry (medium spicy for flavor), and the chef's special char grilled pork w/ spicy chili sauce and jasmine rice. We also had the thai tea with the yelp check-in. Food came out hot and portion size was fitting for price. The pork could've been less overcooked, as it was a little tough, but it was still good. Next time, we might just get the spicy noodles and peanut curry. It was so good over rice. Pork was little pricier. Overall, it was a good experience and tasty. Would recommend, wouldn't mind coming back. But fyi there's a party fee if you're a big group.

    I almost feel like I shouldn't write this review so I can gatekeep this restaurant...I've been here twice and both times were super pleasant. The food is delicious and very cheap! It's great value for the large servings that you get. I love taking people here because it's not too loud or busy. It's a small hole in the wall restaurant, the kind you need for a local Thai spot. In the past I have tried the green curry, the yellow curry, the bbq chicken, and more. All of the dishes have been tasty and authentic. They only have one type of beer but Singha is good anyway.

    Pad Thai

    Garbage! Most bland Pad Thai I've ever had. Ordered online and wasn't ready when I got there. Waited 45 min. They ran out of rice and sauce apparently. Tiny portion for cost. Don't waist your time and money.

    Sour pad Thai. I'm guessing something spoiled that made it sour.
    Keniff K.

    The curry I ordered was decent. The rice that came with it was cold like it was refrigerated overnight cold and hard. Ok I've had many pad Thai in my life span and they were flavorful and on the sweet side. This one on the other hand was sour. I thought that maybe they squeezed lime in it but I kept digging for the source and the tofu I bit into was sour (spoiled) they also used bean sprouts that could've contributed to the sour taste of the dish overall but I've had enough and didn't want to risk exploring this mystery dish. I would've given this place a better review but I am not a big fan of places that serves food that are spoiled. Getting food poisoning is not fun and could kill someone. Place needs food quality control. Don't try to save a few bucks and risk getting people sick not worth it!

    Drunken Noodles - Yummy
    Linda W.

    This is such a quaint restaurant that serves awesome Thai cuisine. The prices are all $12 to $14 and this includes soup. They have choices of no spice to very spicy. We are always greeted and seated promptly.

    Churrs to all!

    Thai food so good I was tongue-Thai'd! It was a first time for us and not sure what to expect. Almost wore my suit and Thai but decided not to :p We arrived and had no reservations but it was ok since it was not completely busy. Had we come 30 minutes later, would have been slightly different. Got jumping busy and after tasting the great food, can see why. Also they have countless to-go orders, people coming in for take-away. Here's the skinny on the food: Photos speak a thousand words. So please take a gander after reading. Because it was Happy Hour, a mandatory smile came upon my face. Began with Singha Thai beer. Cheers! Went on to order veggie spring rolls with sweet chili sauce. Nice. The fried tofu was crispy delicious. Both of these came out piping hot straight from the kitchen. Panang Curry-Ordered with chicken and was tasty however a bit too much peanut taste and sweet for me but still good. Papaya salad with shrimp- Now we're talking! Tangy and well made. Shrimp so big that should not be called shrimp! Green Curry-Tender pork with a sauce that had some kick with excellent spice taste. This was my favorite even though it was a bright green color. Yummy beyond. Pad See ew ordered with beef and stir fried with marvelous noodles. Next time I'm not sharing this dish. I want one for myself. The grand finale was a warm Sticky Rice with Mango and brought it all home! The aroma was amazing. So much so, that the table next to us immediately placed an order. Please see photos of the formidable dishes. Service was more than competent even though one waitress took care of the entire place! Whenever we needed help, one glance was all it took. Thank you! Plenty of Parking as the restaurant sits on a strip mall. As always, thank for reading! Happy eating!

    Pineapple Curry lunch special
    Lindsey O.

    Great lunch special! Came here for lunch on a Monday and it was $7.99 for soup, a spring roll, rice, and a large entree that was any curry, noodle, or sautéed dish on their menu. I had the Pineapple Curry which first off is one of my favorite Thai dishes and I feel most places don't serve that, so it's a huge plus that they do. It was very tasty. I got it medium spicy and it was realllllly good. It had a nice kick but my mouth wasn't on fire at all, I probably could have gone one level up I think so if you like spicy you can probably level up. The spring roll was great and service was friendly. Knocked off a star because the soup was kind of cold, and I usually reserve 5s for mind blowing experiences. While Thai basil is good, it's definitely and and not quite a 5 for me - but definitely a great spot in the neighborhood where you won't be disappointed.

    Spicy Noodles
    Dani E.

    We had dinner here with family tonight and it was absolutely delicious. We ordered spring rolls and edamame as an appetizer. Husband ordered drunken noodles and I had the spicy noodles. Kids ordered fried rice and grandma had a beef dish. Everything was really good!! It was my MILs birthday today and the restaurant staff had no issues with us bringing a birthday cake with us so we can celebrate her birthday, which was great. They even provided us with plates and a lighter so we could light the candles. Everyone was super nice

My first pint was a Hefeweizen. It had a slight waxy mouthfeel. My second pint was an oatmeal stout. At 7.3% ABV it was a tad strong, but it went down very smoothly. I snacked on some free popcorn but it was seasoned with a strong spice. Thankfully I could help myself to the water fountain. I enjoyed the ambiance and will be back.

This is actually a food truck, which is parked on the side of the Tipsy Catcus, which is a really cool brewery I also checked out while I was waiting for my order. This is a really chill brewery, and not a huge spot. Maybe 8 to 10 high top tables with bar seating, and a mostly open floor plan. They have a small patio too, with what looks like about another tables but because I visited at night, nobody was outside. They also seem to be extremely dog friendly as they had one table with a really chill cocker spaniel completely laid out on his side in the middle of the floor. I'm not sure how many taps they had in total, but definitely more than 40 I would say. I'm not a big beer drinker, so I ordered a cider. The cider I was served was on tap and really tasty. And it definitely hit the spot of terms of price point. One thing to note, while I was talking to the owner/manager of the tipsy cactus (shout to him because he was really cool), he told me that Friday night and Saturday nights are usually popping so I wouldn't expect to be first in line on any of those nights. It also looks like they rotate food trucks on different nights, so don't assume that the cheesesteak truck is going to be here every night. I would check the tipsy cactus website, or Instagram page to be sure. I'll definitely be looking forward to checking this place out again in the future, especially if I'm hitting one of the food trucks parked outside.

If you stop in, you should absolutely grab one because the quality is amazing. I did ask for a bag and they said they had a "thank you" bag, but I told them that wasn't bougie enough so Zach wrote "Gucci"on mine and that absolutely made my night! He understood the assignment!

Yes- Another pinball/game location that also serves beer and wine (but no food/kitchen). The place has an 80's or early 90's feel to it. They have a lot of newer pinball machines I'm not familiar with but saw a lot of classics that I've enjoyed over the years as well. While the place is around 75% pinball focused, there's also some retro arcade games like the original Super Mario Bros (a good way to make a quarter last 15min). I also noticed almost every machine was in working order! They had a tournament board and a digital high scores board near the entrance. Inquiring more about it, they host some tournaments and also have several leagues that play here. The only downside I found was the walk lanes were pretty tight...if people were playing on machines on both sides of the walkway, I had to turn sideways and skooch gingerly between to not rump bump someone. Also, the place is pretty small so in busy times your favorite machines may be taken for some time. Overall, another great place to spend an hour playing pinball and reliving some fond childhood memories!
