    Seaweed Salad
    Mary K.

    Small place in a small plaza - blink and you'll miss it but food is good. Just look for Brickyard Wine and Spirits, it's in the same plaza. We came on a Friday night very hungry and looking for good Thai food - this place fit the bill. The place isn't anything fancy and is small but it wasn't busy so no wait on this rainy Friday night. We ordered chicken tom yum soup, seaweed salad, appetizer platter for 2, chicken pineapple fried rice and chicken yellow curry. Tom Yum soup was good, nice balance of sour and spicy (could've been spicier IMO) but broth was delicious. Seaweed salad came out warm, that was a first - I typically have it cold. Came on a heaping pile of spiraled carrots which surprisingly tasted good - it could've just been for garnish but we ate it, lol. Appetizer platter - we liked pretty much everything on there - a few we could do without were the chicken satay (bit bland) and fresh rolls (just ok). Sprill rolls were good and although they were super crispy, I liked the wings - had a nice flavor. Rice was good but I think it could've used a bit more curry powder. The yellow curry was delicious - great flavor with just enough kick to coat your palate. We enjoyed our meal and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be making a trip back here again.

    So pleased and impressed! We do have a very nice Thai restaurant in Bristol but we took the extra 10 minutes to try The Boss out for take-out tonight. So glad we did! Truly authentic balanced Thai flavors and with the right amount of heat for the spicy dishes. We got a diverse selection and everything was excellent and traveled well. I LOVE the basil Pad Thai - never had that before and it's got a unique kick to it! I'm always adding stuff to take out meals, finding many under seasoned or not the right amount of spice or acid - everything here is perfect as is! Will be ordering more for sure! Thank you Boss man/woman!

    My family order foods here once a week. Today I found a very sharp iron particle in the fried rice. I was so disappointed with it.

    Where's the beef

    Spent $100 on 4 bowls of soup. The three beef bowls had two meatballs and two small pieces of steak, see photo. Absolutely not worth it and to top it off you have to tip them on line or you can't order. What a ripoff. Where's the beef?

    Lemongrass Veggies

    I have not been here in a while. Disappointed this last time ordering take out. The prices are much higher and the portions are smaller. I was surprised. The food was good but at these prices. I will go elsewhere. My lemongrass with veggies was $16.95 and the green beans with tofu was $17.95. It is not the prices as much as the portion. The service is always friendly so I gave them two stars.

    Seafood pho

    I like the food, the place is very clean and the server is so cute and very very polite! I had seafood pho, which I eat a lot and this was my first time having mussels inside and it was SO good!

    I absolutely love this restaurant. The tam buk hong(papaya salad) and kapoon(noodle soup) bring back many fond memories of my childhood!

    Hidden in a very very small strip mall is this amazing restaurant. Of all the places I've been, I…read morewould've never thought to find one of the best Thai restaurants to be in Providence Rhode Island. Yet, here we are. This cozy restaurant really delivers some authentic Thai magic. Chicken Satay - Best chicken satay I've had ever. The chicken appears to be marinated because there's flavor throughout the entire piece of meat. Appetizer comes with 4x large pieces. Nothing small about them and the accompanying peanut sauce and pickled vegetables are on point. Meat is "moist" and "tender". Yes... those quotes were necessary. Thai Iced Tea - The drink is a regular order for me at a lot of Thai restaurants. To my surprise, I really enjoyed this one the most because it was not atypically as overly sweet as other restaurants I've been too. Green Curry with Seafood - All ingredients in this dish were on point and fresh. Nothing tasted frozen or out of a can. Seafood was not over cooked and everything tasted clean. Flavors and quantity were all present. The curry had spice and did not disappoint. Kra Pow with Minced Chicken - Again, all the added veggies were fresh and not overly cooked. Vegetables really spoke for themselves. Flavor in the kra pow were solid and had a reasonable level of heat/spice, but not overwhelming. Again, very good portions. Overall, this place was amazing. I was a bit thrown off when they didn't ask how spicy our party wanted our food as with most other Thai restaurants we've been to, but they hit it out of the park. In my honest opinion, it's not the typical American levels of spice, so be forewarned. The level is probably a bit more on the mild side of Thai level heat. Service is very friendly here and prompt. I have to say whoever the cook, grandma, or magic elf they have hidden away in the kitchen... don't ever let them go.

    The food is absolutely delicious. I love the drunken noodles. I usually order out. Everything comes…read moreperfectly hot. Fresh Thai iced tea is delicious. Chicken satay is also very good.

    We rely on Yelp when we travel out of California to figure out what is good. Last night we ventured…read moreinto this place not sure to expect, but open to trying the food anyways. We were told sit where we pleased which was a bit of a challenge with the setting sun on it's way down for the day, but that was soon resolved. Our drink orders were taken pretty quickly and came out pretty fast too. It took us a few minutes to figure out what we wanted because there was such a variety of food to select from. My husband ordered the Boston and Super California rolls, my mother had the Sweet and Sour Chicken, and I had my usual avocado rolls with the A.A.C. roll and some Mushroom Soup. It took a bit for the food to come out, but we were in no rush to go anywhere. The rolls were delicious and the Sweet and Sour chicken came out with the chicken separate from the sauce so you could dip the chicken in the sauce. My Mushroom Soup was hot and savory just the way it should be. The real stellar thing was the service because I accidentally spilled my husband's beer. The lady at the counter replaced the beer no questions asked! I am so grateful for her doing that. In the end I would highly recommend this little jewel if you happen to be passing through the area. They are right off the main road that takes you right by the businesses in the area. If you pull into Shaw's parking lot and look across the way you will see this place too. Do yourself a favor and stop on in! Bon Appetit!

We were the only people there for most of the visit, and it was extremely uncomfortable because tue child was crying and then she would turn around and be super nice to the customers after yelling at the child, who I'm sure was bored. I understand that small business owners may need to bring their children to work, but this was unprofessional and very disturbing to witness as a patron. I hope this was just an off day and this staff member doesn't routinely behave this way.
