    foggy water - obviously tap water and not filtered.

    I don't like slamming places when the owners (or people running the place) are nice but I can't give out good ratings just because they're nice either. Some places just need to go out of business. If you're going to name your business after a dish, then it should darn well be the best dish there. This might be the worst Tom Yum Goong I've ever had. Soup was sweet and yet bitter? Should be a bit sour not bitter. Mushrooms look like they are at least a week old. Soup tasted like it was from some kind of a boxed concoction or powder. Shrimp in it were plentiful so but also like they were thrown in from a frozen bag and chewy. The shrimp in the fried rice were clearly of a better quality but overall the rice was a dismal affair. The yellow curry with pork was probably the best dish but even that was off. Tasted a bit more like chinese or japanese style curry than Thai. Is the lady running it Chinese? She didn't look Thai. We were probably first in person customers of the day on a Saturday (not a monday) 11:30 so no excuse for lame leftover food. If you're going to serve water at least provide filtered if your tap is terrible. This is not too much to ask. The ecclectic mix of antiques is cool if a bit out of place and weird but no points off for that. Just overall bad food. This area is not devoid of Thai food. There are plenty of choices to be had.

    Shrimp Pad Thai (spicy delicious)
    Jodie B.

    This is authentic Thai and you can taste the love in all of their dishes. Curry Shrimp was THE best I've ever tasted!! Hands down, this is the most unassuming yet best tasting Thai food in Vacaville in our family's opinion. Quality ingredients and such good people running the restaurant- family affair makes it so special. Don't miss out- this is the place for Thai.

    Mango Sticky An Chan Rice (seasonal)

    Late evening, I ordered mango sticky rice. The portion size was small, but it was very delicious.

    Boat Noodles
    Serenity L.

    I've been to this restaurant a couple times, but it's been years since I've been back. It's a nice restaurant with friendly staff. I was craving boat noodles and this is one of the very few places in the Fairfield/Vacaville area that offer it. Boat Noodles - I actually took this to go and had it in the comfort of my home. I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor and quality of this noodle soup. I've had boat noodles a few times in the past and I would say this is definitely one of the better spots. The meat was so tender and literally melts in your mouth. The noodle to meat ratio was perfect. There was plenty of meat, probably more than I would've preferred but that's normal for me. I would take more noodles over meat any day, LOL. With that being said, they still provided a good amount of noodles so i was very satisfied! The reason why I did not give it 5 stars is because the broth itself was a bit sweeter than I preferred. Other than that, it was perfect. I'll definitely be back for more! Pad Thai- I ordered the chicken pad thai, spicy level hot and it was delicious but it wasn't spicy. I was a bit disappointed about that, but overall the flavor was great. I actually felt like the meat was sparse in this dish, but once again that's not really a problem for me but I could see how it could be for others.

    The best Tai Food Beautiful place, clean, amazing people, friendly my favorite restaurant

    Pumpkin Curry  (Thai spice)
    Jason B.

    (4.88/5) - True Rating Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Thai flavors! Food: 10/10 We've really enjoyed the pumpkin curry (Thai spice), tom yum soup, pad thai with chicken, nam tok, and pad kee mao with tofu, and each dish has left us craving for more. The flavors are bold and authentic, with just the right amount of spice. The pumpkin curry stole the show with its perfectly balanced flavors and tender kabocha squash. It comes with a complimentary side of rice. The tom yum soup was light yet tangy, while the pad thai showcased well-sauced noodles and succulent chicken. Though the portion sizes are slightly smaller than usual, the quality of ingredients shines through in every bite. Service: 5/5 The warm and welcoming atmosphere is complemented by attentive service from the friendly staff, who are more than happy to guide you through the menu. Atmosphere/Cleanliness: 4.5/5 While the restaurant may feel cozy due to its small size and the presence of antiquities, finding seating has never been an issue during our visits. It's worth noting that it seems like most patrons opt for take-out, but the dine-in experience is equally inviting. The cleanliness of the restaurant adds to its charm, creating a homey atmosphere that enhances the dining experience.

    Pad Thai

    Great food and very nice people. They have a great selection for very affordable prices. We were traveling through and looking for a quick bite and this did not disappoint! If I am ever in the area again, I will go out of my way to eat here. Definitely a must try!

    Pad Thai
    Ritz C.

    Maybe I'm mistaken but these are not Pad Thai noodles?? I'm looking at other pictures posted from this restaurant and these are definitely much thinner. And yes I've had Pad Thai many times. This is not the same. Also, it costs me about $15.

    Their iced coffee is delish. The dishes? Ok. Decent. The green chicken curry veggies seemed like they might have been frozen.
