I have been meaning to try this place for a while and it did not disappoint. Located in a beautiful white store front the food is just as good as the whole aesthetic of the restaurant. I got Khao soi curry and a seafood noodle dish. It was fast delicious and fresh. The service also was incredible. Totally mom and pop vibe where everyone hustles, is friendly and delivers just a great experience. I would definitely come back.

The more I visit this restaurant, the better their food gets. I'm thrilled to have found a consistently good Thai restaurant. The curry and coconut dishes are the highlights. A few visits here have expanded my appreciation. The Basil Lettuce Wraps and Chicken Satay are wonderfully crafted here with more detail than most places I've visited.

I tried one of the dinner specials, it was scallops, shrimp in a slightly sweet and coconut flavor sauce. Very good food and the service was excellent, nice cozy place.

I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. Here's my review: I walked in on a whim and was promptly seated. I'm on a mission to try some more places in the area. I got the chicken satay and the Panang Curry. Chicken Satay - flavorless, literally tasted like chicken with no real flavor. The peanut sauce helped but just barely. Panang Curry: curry had a little more flavor, it was slightly too salty. The beef wasn't that great compared to other Thai places I've been. Passion fruit refresher- refreshing but didn't have passion fruit flavor. I am not sure what it is. Service didn't bother me but I will comment on it - I dined solo and didn't get water until I had to ask for it. There was only one server, presumably since it's a small place with few tables. The server didn't come to check in on me. I don't think he checked in on the table next to me as well. Bathroom has sticky floors. Utensils seem Old and worn. Pro: relatively affordable for Thai in Oakland.

Our new favorite local Thai place! Their curries are wonderful - especially the house curry. The restaurant is small, intimate and not loud! On a Friday and even Saturday early evening it was not packed and the atmosphere is chill and quiet. Looking forward to going back for a third time already :)
