I live nearby, so I have visited this place about 7-8 times. The food was always decent and fairly tasty even though the service from the lady who owns it is a bit cold, but it's efficient and they're usually doing more take outs than dine ins. My friend loves their Pad Thai and I have tried many of their stir fries and curries. However the last time I ate from here on June 30, 2023. I did a takeout of their chicken fried rice. I brought it home and ate about 1/3 of it while it was still hot, and then started feeling really sick as I ate it, so I set it aside and went to bed, even though it was 5:30 PM because I was starting to feel really nauseous and queasy. Woke up that night and was really sick and was sick for the next three days. It was some kind of food poisoning.
Even though I was better my stomach pain did not subside for the next three weeks and I could not eat very much without stomach pain, and no spice at all, so I was living off mashed bananas and mashed potatoes, so eventually I went to the doctor, and after a lot of tests, she diagnosed a bacteria that comes from unclean hands or similar unhygienic stuff. I had to then get on a course of antibiotics, and had to take 12 antibiotic pills a day for 10 days for a total of 120! This is the most antibiotics I have ever taken, and it really killed my gut. I stopped eating out for a while, and was describing my harrowing experience to a local friend and she mentioned that she had a similar kind of experience at this place. She and her husband are vegetarians, and they had ordered the green curry with rice and right after eating it they were both pretty sick and had to cancel their plans for the rest of the day. Unfortunately, that convinced me that this is not a one off incident at this place. I am not going to go back. It seems like they make tasty food, but they do not observe proper hygiene all the time, and one incident of the sickness was enough for me. It is October now and four months have passed, but I still have trouble eating chicken because I keep remembering how sick I got after eating chicken fried rice from this place. I would have given them some feedback about this food poisoning and infection, but in the past the lady has not been nice when my friends who I brought to this restaurant, tried to give some feedback about one of the dishes they ordered. So I did not contact the restaurant after my experience. You may never experience any sickness after eating here, and I still have friends who really like their food, but I am just too scared about ever trying them again. read more
