Go here because they have vegan Thai food here and it's delicious.
I love Thai food. Even more then that, I love going somewhere that is willing to make almost anything on their menu vegan.
After attempting to go to two other Thai spots in the area and finding them closed, a friend who had been here and loved it suggested we stop and I'm glad we did. They are open until 2am or 4am depending on the day, so this is a great place for that late night hunger.
We shared the pad kee mao, panang curry, and fried tofu. My friend also got a non vegan dish, but said the vegan dishes were as good as the non-vegan versions, so you know they do a good job with all of it.
They have a pretty big patio which is great for those who want some fresh air. We initially had the patio almost to ourselves, but as the night went on, more customers chose to sit outside. The inside is a step up from a hole in the wall and they have a stage where I've heard they used to have karaoke.
We got there before 11pm and observed an interesting shift in the clientele, from mostly Thai people when we arrived, to a different crowd of people getting off work or ending their evening out. I mention this because it's cool to see a restaurant that is enjoyed for being authentic by all kinds of people.
Parking is not great. There's a tiny lot that fills up and stays that way. Street parking may or may not be a challenge.
Service was okay, hence the 4 instead of 5 stars. It was very slow at every step, ordering, getting our food, getting the check, etc. One of the dishes my friend ordered was either forgotten or given to another table, as the people who had come in a long time after us were served their food before we had received all of ours and one of the things they ordered was what we were missing. It was almost impossible to get our water refilled and then only one of us got water so we shared! However, the employees were nice and great at explaining things in detail without being prompted when I asked about ordering vegan items.
I will certainly be back and this time, I'm not going to forget my leftovers. Two appetizers, two entrees, and a small side of rice ended up being about $80, so I'm still sad I left that delicious food sitting there!
Come here for delicious, authentic Thai food. Consider yourself lucky if other things go your way (service, parking), but it's all about the great flavors and fresh dishes!
