Food was okay not the best but I guess. They do charge 15% for FAIR WAGE FEE and yes I was informed once being seated. What was i supposed to do turn around and walk out. I would have but I am limited on time since I went during my lunch. Services was slow for it not being full. But I guess this isn't a place for me double tipping because of 15% added to bill for FAIR WAGE FEE.

Clearly I've been living under a rock because it's my first time here. WHAT?! I know. We came with friends and were seated right by the open kitchen. It was very entertaining to watch the cooks and see each dish come out. It took a while to decide what to get - they have many options. We agreed on the large papaya salad (fresh, spicy, crunchy, sweet and tangy and really really excellent), green curry (broccoli and mushroom - very nice level of spice and sharp yummy taste - veggies were really excellent, too), Tom Kha soup (this tasted more like a curry, a bit thicker than expected, but still very good and well spiced) and drunken noodles (savory, chewy, comforting). I also had a taste of the pineapple fried rice - which was yummy with a fun texture and a little sweet. The Thai Basil ice cream was also unique and very good. We'll definitely come back to try even more things. I appreciate that they pay their staff a living wage - something all restaurants should do.

Love this place! Almost everything they have is gluten free and delicious. PLUS they have a ton of gluten free baked goodies. Sadly they don't deliver but they do offer dining in and pickup. One of my fave Thai places in Austin land!

So worth the wait for a parking spot! The interesting thing is that they have way more seating than you would think so we got right in. Started off with a few apps and then a soup and I got the fried chicken. Just an awesome experience.

If you like authentic Thai food, don't come here. The Papaya Salad was lacking texture, Thai basil, fermented dried baby shrimp, and Thai chilies. Instead of smashed cherry tomatoes , it came with pulpy, tasteless, cubed tomatoes. It was heavy on the fish sauce, but missing all of the intricate ingredients Thai food is known for. The Glass Noodles with shrimp were also lacking this layering of flavors. It was one dimensional, and the ever present pulpy tomatoes accompanied this dish as well. Would never order this again. We also ordered 2 tacos: one with fajita meat and another one with shrimp and eggs. And while the tacos were large, they were greasy and lacking any kind of fresh vegetable accompaniment typical with tacos. And they did not come with salsas. If you like large, pricey portions, this is your place. If you like an orchestra of flavors typical of good Thai or Mexican cuisine, then this is not for you...
