    I love this hidden gem for both lunch and dinner! I have eaten there with my mother 3 times and every time nearly every table is filled with happy eaters. Even though it is busy, the food comes out quickly and if very flavorful. The staff is consistent. Same staff for a long time, and they are always smiling. Being a Midwest Thai restaurant, it does seem that the chef holds back on the hot spices quite a bit. I suggest that you order "hot spice" if you want "mildly hot". The house salad dressing is very good. The iced coffee is killer, although I prefer beer. There is a back room for large groups, and there seems to be a following from local corporate offices, with groups of 8-10 people eating lunch there often. I will return often, whenever I get back to KC/ Lenexa/ Overland Park.

    Crab fried rice

    Came here for lunch and got the Padthai with chicken and crab fried rice. Got hot and sour soup- more on the sweeter side and crab rangoons which was small and cute no dipping sauce tho. The Padthai had little chicken and very saucy and pretty sweet compared to the ones I've had at other places. The crab fried rice was pretty good! The staff was nice and attentive. Would I come back? Probably not since it seems like they make their dishes on the sweeter side.

    I love coming here - solid food and solid pricing. Love how everything tasted, and prices are always reasonable. Service is fast and friendly. There's lots of tables, but it's always packed whenever I come in the evenings. Would be a fine spot for a casual dinner. Probably one of the best Thai places in KC. I also see a lot of people come in to pick up to go orders, so that's an option too. Would be more than happy to return here.

    Still staying with my OG review, best Thai food in Kansas City!!! Seriously, the best, no matter what you order. Service is quick and efficient. Restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. Food is not only amazing, but served super fast from the kitchen. Nothing but love for this place!!

    This is my new favorite Thai in Overland Park!! Drinks are reasonable (and strong). I ordered the Thai Sling and my fiancé ordered the Siam Ruby. The pad Thai is saucy, flavorful and a huge portion. The waitress recommended the spicy peanut garlic chicken (I can't remember the name) so we ordered that too. Again, huge portion and super flavorful! We ordered mild heat for both but felt like we could have handled spicier.

    Pad Thai

    First time having Thai food-my grown kids took me. It was really good. I don't like spicy so ordered my Pad Thai mild but now think I would have also enjoyed medium as it wasn't spicy at all. Restaurant is very clean and the wait staff were very quick & attentive. This little place is a jewel!

    It's been many years since we have eaten here, but elated to report that this place still has its magic!! Ignore the people complaining about prices or decor. We brought a work lunch party of 8 in at Noon and got seated immediately. They have ample seating in two main dining rooms. Our drinks were brought within two minutes which is key! Our server explained everything for our members trying Thai food for the first time. Our apps and then entrees were brought out super fast, 5-10 mins and brought out as they were cooked so steaming hot! The Basil Wings app is crispy deliciousness,, do not skip them! The pineapple ginger rice Thai Hot was amazing. But the star of the show was the Phad Sea Ew and the fresh made wide thin noodles that hold all the heat! 6/8 of us ordered that with various proteins and heat levels and all of us were part of the clean plate club. You also get your choice of soup or house salad, the Hot & Sour soup was good...sweeter when compared to the Chinese version. The servers smartly ask you what heat level you would like, Mild is very tame, Medium is perfectly hot, Hot is a nice step up and Thai Hot is the ultimate step up! Be sure to ask for the sides of various chilis to really step your heat game up! I have to give props to various servers constantly filling our waters every few minutes due to the sweat pouring down our faces! A+++ service!! We are mixing this location into our regular lunch rotation, thanks for ab amazing meal!

    Pad see ew
    Lucy T.

    Thai spots are now being compared to Lanna for me, which I feel is the absolute best Thai food other than Baramee downtown (as someone who lived in BKK) This restaurant has fallen off in recent years. The pad see ew was average, with little flavor other than "wok," not much sauce, and spongy tofu that seemed hastily added at the end with no chance to absorb flavor. Heavy on noodles, light on veggies also wasn't ideal. Medium spice amounted to red pepper flakes. Service felt simultaneously rushed but also slow to respond. No guest receipt offered at checkout.

    Pad thai and volcano soup
    Christopher D.

    Plenty of parking. Service was quick and helpful. They always ask your heat preference. We had the shrimp pad thai and the volcano soup. Each entree comes with soup or salad. Food is exquisite. Place is busy all the time. Clean with plenty of seaseating. Vast menu you won't be disappointed.

    Crispy spring rolls and spring rolls appetizer

    This is my favorite place! They are so kind and welcoming! My best friend and I enjoyed our joint bday lunch they gave us mango cheesecake it was delightful. My pad Thai had nice plump fresh shrimp and tender chicken. It's a nice place to enjoy and leisure lunch and bask in the ambience a feeling like you're in Thailand!

As we were promptly seated in started hearing a "tink tink" sound and looked up. Yall!! The cutest glass hummingbirds were hanging from the ceiling. It was stunning!! Ok, the food!!! I had the crab fried rice which my husband had to help me finish because it was a huge amount! Share if you can but with the understanding you might fight over the last bite. If you still have room after dinner get the butter cake! Ladies, it is worth the calories! The waiter was prompt and had us with drinks in no time! This is an absolute do again if we are ever in the area!

Mine with no peanuts with chicken and steak. Hubs had peanuts and chicken, steak, and shrimp. He also had a drink that looked like water but definitely wasn't. He said it was tasty. I had a Coke. Overall, a nice substitute if you can't get to Bamboo Penny. The only thing that was different was I wasn't offered the different sauces/spices to add to the Pad Thai.

So me, my niece, nephews, and sister came here while we were visiting family in Kansas City during the July 4th holiday. Now this is just like any other seafood bag boil spot so nothing spectacular or extraordinary about how these places work. We ordered some raw oysters which were really fresh! Then ordered our bags which I decided not to be get a big bag because I usually take it home for later. So I ordered a half a lbs shrimp, crawfish, and for the first time added ramen noodles to the bag. And man have I been missing out! I don't ever remember seeing that as an option here in the DMV. So much better than folks and those boiled eggs which I think is so nasty to eat with seafood. Our food came out all at different times and there were a few mistakes that the waiter was able to rectify the discrepancies. It was pretty empty in there so the service was fine. I did order a couple of drinks that as far as I can remember were tasty. Would we come back if back in town probably not...one and done is all I need!

    Been wanting to try Earl's Premier for a minute, and it did NOT disappoint!…read more We started with the shrimp cocktail--and they were huge!--along with Southern hush puppies. The shrimp were plump and satisfying, especially with the seafood cocktail sauce, which had the perfect kick of horseradish. The hush puppies were a delicious Southern start before moving on to the mains: crispy cod, shrimp salad, and lobster roll. Everything was delicious! My favorites were definitely the shrimp and the crispy cod, with its irresistible crispy coating. The lobster roll was good, but not my favorite--it was generously coated in sauce, which was a little too much for my liking. Overall, though, a great meal and definitely worth trying!

    Absolutely amazing!…read more We picked this spot out for my birthday based on Yelp reviews and we were not disappointed! It's a small place, so I definitely recommend getting reservations. We got right in and I ordered the frozen gin and tonic. This was based on reviews as I am not a G&T person. It was so tasty. I highly recommend! It tasted like a frozen Fresca. We had the calamari appetizer. For entrees, our table ordered crab cakes, sea bass and fish and chips. We all shared a little and all of it was amazing!!! Because it was my birthday, we ordered three desserts to try. The key lime cheesecake, carrot cake and the chocolate dessert. We loved all of them and each ranked them differently. I can't wait to come back!
