Very much like the Panda express of Thai food. It was "ok" but wouldn't come here again. For the amount of money they charge you're better off having quality Thai at Thai Spice.

An unpretentious place, clean, bright, airy, with a simple and complete menu and friendly staff. The food is just right (taste, smell, color, temperature) and you will receive good portions and very affordable prices. Oh! and you can see the people in the kitchen doing everything from scratch. Bonus point: THE FRESH CANE SUGAR JUICE, you have to try it! (also you see when they are doing it for you). Definitely give this place a try when you want to have a comfortable meal full of Thai flavor.

Horrible food. I don’t know why it has good reviews!!! Ordered vegetarian pad Thai, garlic noodle and pad kee mao. All dishes were terrible! Also, I think they were stale. Garlic noodle was cold! God, I hope I don’t get food poisoning! Would not recommend this restaurant at all. Vegetarian options: It has vegetarian options but food is bad!
