The spring rolls were a bit underwhelming. I have had better elsewhere and I also prefer them to be made with rice wrapper instead of the wheat wrapper used here. The beef short ribs were tasty. Salad was fresh. Lastly, the pho broth was light with a strong hint of star anise. There was an okay amount of beef toppings and noodles. Overall, I was still quite satisfied with my meal. Restaurant was clean and tidy including the restrooms. I think this is a good Vietnamese option in the area.

Still great food. I love the Beef Bang Mi and my wife (Celiac) gets the Pho. After going to Riefel…read moreBird Sanctuary we are stoping here as a tradition. Hole-in-the-wall appearance but big flavor and good service.

Sadly, the experience I had was far from 'impressive'. Overpriced and not filling whatsoever. They…read morehad a bunch of visual tricks and garnishings, but the meal itself was nothing special and the wine pairing did not suit the meal at all. I have had many better Thai experiences throughout the lower mainland at a fraction of the price and with better service. I even asked a question of our waiter and he nervously responded, "I'm sorry, but we are not allowed to converse with the guests." Both myself and my friend who invited me thought this was very odd and it put a dark mood on the evening as we felt like we were being watched by the owners. It was creepy. A couple of other friends of mine also had similar experiences remarking that that staff are always walking on eggshells to the point where it dampened their experience. The experience was an unfortunate waste. Afterwards, we went to a different seafood restaurant in Steveston to get a full meal and we were satisfied by that experience, thank goodness. I have since steered many interested parties away from this restaurant and will continue to do so. **Plus, I don't know why it's stated here on Yelp that they have a Michelin Star, because according to the Michelin Guide, they do not. If Michelin has awarded them one, then Michelin stars mean nothing.

Ambiance: Stunning and elegant. From the moment you walk in, everything feels intentional and…read morerefined. Food: Elevated Thai cuisine with beautifully crafted presentation. Portions are small, but clearly designed for a fine-dining experience rather than a filling meal. Standouts: The Pad Thai was impressive and well-balanced, especially for someone very familiar with Thai food. But the highlight for me was the Organic Coconut Galangal Soup with Crispy Wild Sockeye Salmon -- deeply flavorful, comforting, and the dish that truly stayed with me. Service: Attentive and thoughtful. I was here for my birthday and received a greeting letter and card, which made the experience feel extra special. Value: Pricey, yes -- but when you factor in the food, service, and overall experience, it's worth it for a special occasion. Highly recommended for celebrations or a meaningful night out.

Horrible. Ordered…read morevia Uber Eats. It was quick but sometimes that's a red flag in itself. We are at a hotel. They didn't send any cutlery or napkins which is just common sense. Next there was no soya sauce. And worst of all - NO RICE ! My husband had to go to a restaurant close by to get a side of rice and some soya sauce. After paying over 70$ this is unacceptable. All this aside, we were hoping the food would be good. Our order was Beef Thai Salad, Ginger Beef, Green Curry with Chicken & Satay Chicken Skewers. They also had a promo for 4 Free Spring Rolls with a 40$ purchase, they turned out to be the only thing edible. I had asked for no onions (huge allergies) and not too spicy. The beef salad had no onions, but also zero flavour on the beef. The lettuce had some lime but not any flavour. It was a few cucumbers and lots of bland unseasoned beef. Is super hot chili flakes the only option here ? It looked like the beef should of been really good, but it was like they had washed the beef off completely of anything. The chicken skewers were big but they seemed to be really fatty with gristle - the meat wasn't certainly chicken breast. Even the peanut sauce seemed off. I ate a few bites and spit it out. The ginger beef was a large order. They sent the sauce on the side. Again the meat was super low quality. Lots of gristle etc. Couldn't eat it. My husband didnt mind his green curry, but was less than thrilled about it not coming with any rice !! It too was of poor meat quality. It all smelled quite bad . All in all was so very disappointed . Would never order from here nor recommend. Huge waste of money.

Add $0.25 for a paper cup when requesting for tap water. $1.99 for plain hot tea. No milk or sugar available. Just tea bag in hot water. I didn't get the typical Thai dishes like pad Thai, red curry or green curry as they don't look authentic or appetizing. The staff let us try the Thai pepper chicken and I liked it. It was so crispy. I had it with basil Thai fried rice and green beans. I was warned the green beans was medium spicy and it was quite spicy to me! I tried the Santa Barbara chicken my friend got and it tasted like char siu. Friendly staff and good service here. Ok food.

I really wanted to see if the food tasted like Thai or not, and I was thinking why not? I liked how staff seemed nice and friendly when I passed by CT. So I got Medley 1 ($9.29) that included Spicy Pad Thai with chicken and eggplant tofu, it was alright. It wasn't what I considered authentic Thai dish, but more like typical Chinese fast food. Portion was big enough for me. Eggplant dish was good. Pad Thai didn't have tamarind flavour, but it could've been something else (maybe vinegar?) I don't think it was 4 star worthy as the food was SO oily. I found myself thirsty afterwards, and later I grabbed myself a soda at a dollar store.

I've eaten in many "authentic" Thai restaurants in California, New York and other states where native Thai friends and coworkers have taken me. This is in the top ten list out of 100+ restaurants.

The Fresh Spring Rolls with peanut sauce are fantastic. If you are willing to stay away I will be happy to take your place. This is our favorite Thai restaurant in the PNW.
