The fried rice was a bit too crunchy for my preference but the flavor was good.

This is the only Soba I've tried that is good & flavorful in town. The ribs the used for my soba was tender and wasn't dry at all. Overall, a good experience and I'd come back to try more!

We had the kalbi and the vegetable glass noodles today, and we cleared the plates in no time. This place is true hidden gem behind the gas station. They don't really advertise. As a result they don't get a lot of attention or traffic. We went for a late lunch and were the only table. I believe they deserve to be known and enjoyed by more. I sincerely recommend this place either for trying something new and delicious or if you are in town and crave some good Korean food. Check it out, and you won't be disappointed whatever you get!

Cutely decorated in asian decor. It's actually very well lit for pictures too! lol I ordered the Spicy Chicken Pad Thai, and it was incredible. The flavor was spot on with just the right amount of heat. I also had the lettuce wraps. They were a little sweeter than my personal preference, but they were still fresh, flavorful, and very well made. Great food, exceptional service, and an experience that makes you want to come back. If you're in Jacksonville, do yourself a favor and ask for Aquilas you won't be disappointed!

It looks like an old motel coffee shop like it was once a Shoney's on the outside. Get over it. Inside it has many great Thai art pieces, statues and carvings. The tables are work but clean. Our service was prompt Once our order was served the chef came out and checked on us asking what we thought about each dish. We live Thai food and we have eaten all over the US from coast to coast. This was authentic, reasonable and left us full. We certainly will be back and hope others find their way here, or find their way back. Yes there are a few fancier and more modern Thai restaurants in Jacksonville, but not as authentic, and not as intimate. Some are uncomfortable, rush you though, try to be all things with a little Thai, some Chinese, Japanese, and Korean all on the same menu and most of it mediocre. I'd rather go to a Thai restaurant where they are focused on great Thai food and they do that here.
