A Hidden gem in the heart of downtown if your a Thai food connoisseur you won’t be disappointed:)
TLDR: Great food, great service, great decor, staff is eager to explain the big painting above the clock. Double check that the staff understands your order, it feels like English is not their first language. I also want to address the fact that there's quite a lot of gluten-free items available! I want to start this review by saying that I've already looked at the 1 star reviews this place has. Looks like many of them are menu mix-ups or complaints about reheated food. The reheated food complaints are my favorite because they both have pictures of take-out containers, meaning the customer took the food home, heated it up in their microwave or whatever, then complained that it was reheated. Absolutely amazing. My gf and I started with steamed buns. They come stuffed with pork and goodies. The buns themselves were an excellent texture and nice and sweet but not overly sweet, and the sauce was amazing! Definitely lots of pork included. I somehow forgot to take a picture when the plate came out, so I've attached a picture of a steamed bun with a bite taken out of it. Please forgive me. For my appetizer, I ordered Pineapple Fried Rice spicy level 0 with chicken as the protein. My gf ordered Red Curry spicy level 5. Both meals were excellent! Very well flavored, excellent texture! I also highly recommend the bubble milk tea! I ordered Taro with a little extra sugar, and it was amazing!
We tried this place for the first time and loved the food! Authentic Thai but not as spicy as other Thai restaurants. For reference, I usually order a 2 on spice and that’s almost too hot for me but here it was perfect. Best edamame ever! Loved the sticky rice and mango dessert. They didn’t have many on staff so sometimes we waited to talk to our server once they got busy. We will definitely eat here again when we want Thai food!
Excellent authentic Thai food for lunch or dinner. Had lunch there today and the service and food were perfect. Highly recommend if you want a quick tasty lunch . The new owner is great and the head chef is well known from Pittsburgh. Highly recommend, this will be a favorite spot for myself when travel to the Butler area
This may be the best Thai food I have ever eaten. I had crab Rangoon and fried dumplings for appetizers. Pad Kee Mow for the entree aka drunken noodles. It was deliciously spicy! The service was great and friendly. I will definitely visit here again.
Cute little place! The spice level is great and is actually spicy. The appetizers came out quickly and were really good. The Rangoon's are light and airy with a yummy filling. The food comes out hot and delicious. The servers are super nice and made sure our water was always full. Will definitely stop again.
Amazing place. Every time I visit, I am blown away by the quality of the food and the kindness of the workers. 10/10 would recommend.
Such amazing people!! My grandmother and I have gone here in and out for years to catch up and have always loved it here the group who runs it is always so kind and loves conversation, not to mention the free boba they offered after our check!! Amazing 5 stars all around
