Some of our favorite dishes include the pork and rice cake skewer, the fried rice, and salmon skin salad. The only thing that I thought was below average was the noodle (forgot exactly which one but possibly the pad kee mao). Even though when you read the menu most of  everything has three chili sign on it, you can ask them to make hints not spicy, really appreciated that!

We decided to dine here since the reviews were high and we love thai food. The food was just okay nothing spectacular. We ordered the shrimp pad thai, pineapple fried rice, and the beef skewers. For the drinks we had thai tea. The pad thai was tasty. The beef skewers had a great flavor, however the meat was stuff and it was cold when it arrived. The pineapple rice bowl was different, it had more of a curry flavor with cashews, raisins, sausage, pork shavings. I was expecting more of a soy sauce fried rice taste. Would I visit this place again probably not.
