This pains me to leave a review, because I'm sure the business is struggling post COVID... but if…read moreyou run a corrupt business then prepare yourself for reviews. We came from out of town for lunch and saw decent reviews -- but BEWARE because good reviews are before COVID. We sat and the older lady immediately brought 4 waters to the table and walked away. We looked at the menus and she returned to take our order and warned us the prices are NOT accurate. I asked her by how much, and she said it's up by $3 because inflation (the entrees were already priced at $10.95 for chicken and $12.95 for shrimp)-- so add $3 to that. You'd assume the produce was fresh and decent portion sizes. What was ordered: 2 red curries (shrimp), and 1 shrimp fried rice. She walks to the kitchen and all we hear are the sounds of a microwave door being opened, buttons pressed, and ringing once food was ready. 5-10 mins later, all our meals were out. This was by far the nastiest Thai food ever. Portions sizes were 1 scoop of white rice and a small bowl for the curry. 4 pieces of shrimp with tail on it. Curry tasted like sugar water. Fried rice was cold in the middle and sweet in flavor. High salt content for sure. She comes around and asks if we needed more rice -- here I assumed she realized she gave VERY LITTLE amount of rice and came to her senses. The bill comes around totaled to $60+. She charged $4 for the extra white rice, $4 for the waters, and $31+ for the curries, $15+ for the fried rice. BEWARE AND TURN AWAY. I had her drop $4 from the bill because of how she never asked if we wanted waters, and never explained the rice was being charged as extra. She was extremely rude and pushy during this whole experience and was just honestly annoying to deal with. Do not come here. Oh and there was hair in the food.

We stopped in during a road trip thru this area for late lunch on a Saturday. No other customers…read morethere; later one man came in to get Pad Thai to go. Since this Yelp listing is still unclaimed by this business, I doubt the elderly owner -- who is the hostess, server, and chef -- will change anything. Owner was so excited when I started asking her questions in Thai (why not, I was born there and can speak the language). Didn't help to encourage her to make her best food though. We ordered Chicken satay which is an appetizer, but it was cooked last and came out after my kids had mostly finished their noodles, and the rest of us our entrees. It did not taste fully cooked, and the peanut sauce was "off" -- not sure but we had a bad after taste after eating it, so do NOT order it. One kid ordered Laard Na with chicken. Her gravy was more brown/ soy sauce than should have been for this dish; maybe she didn't clean her wok/ pan after making my other kid's Pad See Ew with chicken. The latter was ok, edible, but we've had better. I ordered Mee Krob Laard Na with chicken, which again had more brown/ soy sauce gravy that it should have. It's nice that this lady offers a huge menu, but honestly she should stick with the dishes she's good at (Laard Na is not one). Hubby got duck curry, which was edible, but super tiny portion (tiny bowl) for a large price. He ordered an Eggplant stir fry and a tilapia curry for his parents. This curry was also in a tiny bowl but high price. We had a discussion in Thai about the fish being frozen so she has to pan fry it first (we were asking if she makes any fish not fried). Eggplant stir fry size was reasonable, but I think we were charged for 4 bowls of rice. We may also have been charged for water. Receipt wasn't detailed so we couldn't tell, but after reading others' reviews (after we ate a disappointing meal of course) that may be her usual process. As mentioned before another customer ordered 2 Pad Thai, so maybe she's good at cooking that, and should stick to it.

I really wanted to like this place, the food looked good online and I came in excited to try it…read more Unfortunately, the Pad Thai just wasn't what I expected. It tasted more like a chicken stir fry than a true Pad Thai. The noodles were on the dry side, there wasn't much peanut sauce, and instead of the classic balance, it had whole peanuts on top along with bell peppers, bean sprouts, carrots, egg, and chicken. I asked for it to be very hot, but it came out pretty mild. Overall, the dish didn't have much flavor and fell flat for me. I also tried the spring rolls. They looked a little unusual--definitely more meat than vegetables--and they were soft instead of fried crispy. That said, the flavor was actually pretty good, just not what I typically expect from spring rolls. I had high hopes, but sadly this was just mid compared to other Thai I've had.

Price can't be beat. I'm withholding one star based on the menu. Standard fare from cover to cover, but a five star joint should have a unique, defining dish that sets it apart.

Maybe the worst restaurant of all time. Went in there while passing through town. We were hungry so…read morewe stopped in. We didn't want McDonalds or anything like that. We went into the place and all of the tables had dirty plates on them while the person behind the counter was just reading a magazine. He could have moved his butt out of the seat and cleaned up a little. As far as the food, it was worse! The hot and sour soup had a skin on it that, kid you not, was nearly an inch thick. So, didn't eat that. Nothing on the buffet was labelled, so we had to guess what was what. To my friend's surprise, she ended up eating frog legs for the first time. Honestly, this place should be closed for sanitary reasons. This was the most unsanitary restaurant I have ever visited. If this place went out of business, that would be a blessing.
