I ordered a chicken pad kea mao (drunken noodles) and it was really good although… they gave me pork instead of chicken. And I didn’t know about that until they came over to the table with the plate that had chicken. Thankfully I am able to eat pork but… be careful if you are not— ask twice to make sure you get the right dish. Otherwise, they were very accommodating to our very large group.

Very unassuming on the outside but this place is actually legit. We got the duck soup which was good but not great and an eggplant stir fry which was maybe the best version of the dish I've had. Will come back to try more. Service was friendly and welcoming. Service Dine in Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

First time trying out this restaurant. I usually take bus to Imm Thai but recently found out about this one which actually is closer to my house, 2 mins walk. Guys it’s worth a try, I ordered Pad Kea Mao for the first time and it tasted so goodddddd, the cashier was super nice explaining the ingredients in every dish. I came at 8:55, they close at 9 so… they could have been annoyed instead of nice. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Recommended dishes Pad Kee Mao Drunken Noodles

It looks like a really small spot from the outside, but it's actually huge inside! The ceilings are high, and it's very bright and beautifully decorated. The prices are pretty reasonable for how large the portions are (I went with a friend, together we ate about half of the 2 dishes we got). All of the food we got was vegan, but I feel like the options we chose to make the food vegan made it better! We got tofu pad kee mao and khao soi with fat rice noodles. The fat rice noodles are really delicious here, and I would recommend getting at least one dish that has them in it. The tofu in the khao soi was put in straight, which I don't really enjoy if it's not silken, but in the pad kee mao, the pieces of tofu were really cute and tiny, and had a lot of color on them.

Great food, large quantities, and not too expensive considering the area. Probably the best deal in town with a great selection of items. I ordered the tom yum noodle soup with rice noodles and it was AMAZING the staff was super nice too I highly recommend stopping here for food if you are in town!

Love Tom Yom & papaya salad! The curry was much stickier than we thought. Nice and cozy place

I gave a sigh to see that they've raised prices and shrunk portion sizes down from when I was a student a few years back, but the beef pad kee mao still tastes as delicious as I remember it. Be forewarned that it IS a little spicy and rather oily. When I'm not feeling the flavorsome spice bomb, I spring for the beef pad see ew (a milder affair with broccoli, eggs, and a savory soy sauce base) instead! Both are supremely tasty!
