  This was my first time having Thai food. It was VERY good. We had the Thai dumplings and Meakong beef. I will DEFINITELY come back again . It was VERY good. The flavor profiles are close to Chinese food but much lighter and more fragrant. We ate at the restaurant, It was a very nice and pleasant dinner/ experience.

  I would beg & plead with Sactown Magazine to include this restaurant in its "Best of the City" issue -- this is some of the most delicious, consistent, beautiful Thai food in Sacramento. I am newer to the neighborhood, but this spot has been here for several years. I've eaten here about a dozen or so times. Casey and his wife Ta, also the chef, run a tight ship as food flies out the door during the peak dinner hour. Casey is always warm and welcoming. It never matters how slammed they are -- he always presents a calm and professional demeanor when greeting you, taking your order, or bringing out food for takeout orders. As their popularity has soared with Door Dash and other food delivery companies, be advised that wait time can be considerable. If you call your order in, wait time can be as long as an hour and forty-five minutes. If you dine in, however, your order goes to the front of the line. Also be advised there are no paper menus if you choose to dine in. You can scan the QR code from the table, or if that doesn't work, you can take a look at the laminated menu above the cash register (photos posted with this review of the entire menu). The food is first class and looks beautiful on the large, white dishware they use. It is arranged artfully on the plate and is always hot and freshly prepared. I have tried several of the curry dishes and noodles -- they will cook it according to your desired spiciness (medium, hot, and Thai hot). The Tom Kha (soup) is my personal favorite (order the pot if your party is larger than 2), as is the Pad Thai. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself is warm and comfortable; there are no television sets in the room or loud music playing. Just about the only commotion is Casey fulfilling orders! Great place - neighborhood gem. Highly recommend!!

  This place is def my fave for Thai food. Their flavors are just right, the restaurant is clean and nicely decorated, and the service is excellent. Our faves here are Tom Kha, Pad Thai, Eggplant, and the fish cakes 🤤 You can’t go wrong here!

  Easily some of the best Thai I've had! Food presentation was artful without being pretentious. The portions were just right and the tastes were a beautifull pallet of flavors. Well done!

  Everything is excellent. Fresh ingredients. Jasmine tea, Thai iced tea. Red, green and yellow Curry, Fried rice, Wonton soup, Dumplings, potstickers and Egg rolls. My advice is order early. They are always very busy because their food is so bomb. Be patient they work as fast as they can. Great service and nice people. I've eaten here multiple times and have never had bad food or service.
