Reminds me of the food I ate in Thailand!! Love the presentation, decor, family style of the restaurant. The menu is big: can order many appetizers, sweet drinks (sugarcane, boba), noodle dishes, soups (tom yum, noodle), and rice dishes. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. Papaya salad was very good and spicy (we ordered a level and it was pretty spicy). Pad see ew noodles very tender and flavorful. 10/10 on the lemongrass fried chicken!!! Mmmm love the thin crunchy exterior, so light yet crispy!! Meat was very juicy as well. 10/10 on the crab cheese wontons!!! One of the best I've had. This place knows how to fry lightly. Cococane drink tasty and refreshing, not too sweet. Just how I like it. I'd come back to try a lot of their other dishes. Great place to share a meal with a friend.
