EDR: Everything is dipped into salsas, not the healthiest cuisine on the planet. There seems to be discrimination towards normal women as waitresses all look like Barbies. Air-conditioning was unbearable.
Christina Pedersen: The Dukes Pork plate is the BEST. It's also a great place for happy hour - the drinks and apps are delicious (specifically the sweet potato fries, pot stickers, and the pirate ship - just share!)
Taylor: Get a scorpion bowl...it always seems like a good idea.

Matthias: #thegreatamericantakeout : What I wasn‘t quite expecting was the heat... They are taking their spiciness serious! 🌶🔥👌🏼 WOW!! If you like it HOT, this is definitely a place to keep in mind! 👍🏼
Jeremy Geiger: The name is accurate. This is one of the few Thai restaurants I the U.S. That my Thai wife will go to
Athonia Cappelli: Vegan options abound at the lunch buffet. Salad dressing has mayo but items like spicy tofu, green vegi curry & Tom Kha Tofu appear totally free of animal products. Spicy tofu is just that! Cha-chow!
Dana Gilliland: The vegetable platter was a delicious selection of flavors. Also the pakora! Very tasty and excellent, friendly service.
Kyle Channel: The vegetable entree platter, especially the cauliflower and the spicy potatoes, and the coconut leeks! Love this place!
Rae: I don't know why people left bad reviews. Everything was delicious & service was wonderful. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but we loved it. The mushroom curry, especially, is recommended.
