Really superior American Thai food. Appetizers were amazing. We arrived early for an 8:30pm reservation. They were so accommodating and seated us an hour early. Wonderful experience.

We were referred by a friend. Making a reservation was simple. Of course, the day we went was the day of the Flash Flood warning, but they were very accomodating, had plastic umbrella bags for us. The interior of the restaurant is pretty spacious. When you first walk in, there's a bar to the right. As you move further in, up the steps, are the tables and dining area. There were dividers between the tables. When seated, the host left us with a drink menu and the food menu was a QR code on the table. The server was so kind and attentive. We both got a Thai Iced Tea and for dinner, we had the Pad See Ew, Green Curry, and Pineapple Fried Rice. The food came out pretty quickly and everything was delicious. The space wasn't too busy when we first arrived, probably due to the torrential downpour, but towards the end of our meal, more people started trickling in.

Everything was fine with the exception of the Bok choy side dish I ordered which was pretty tasteless even though I thought it was supposed to come with garlic sauce. Didn’t notice it when I was there because I was also eating something spicy, but it really disappointed when I heated it for dinner. Otherwise everything was good.
