This picture clearly shows that the meat is placed underneath the noodles, allowing the flavors to blend together beautifully while still keeping the presentation simple and appetizing. The way the dish is prepared makes every bite satisfying, as the savory meat complements the perfectly cooked noodles. The portion size is generous, and everything looks fresh and carefully made. The place itself is very good, and the food is absolutely delicious. You can tell that care and attention go into each dish, from the quality of the ingredients to the way it is served. The flavors are rich, well-balanced, and comforting, making it a spot worth visiting again. I honestly have no complaints at all. The atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, and the staff seem like they are part of a family-owned business, which I truly appreciate and fully support. There is something special about dining at a family-run establishment — you can often feel the pride, dedication, and personal touch in both the service and the food. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would happily recommend this place to others looking for a delicious and satisfying meal.

I was in the mood for Thai and this restaurant didn’t disappoint. I could tell from the menu that everything was authentic. I ordered the Beef Pho and it was amazing. The flavors were top notch. We also ordered the chicken with Thai sweet sauce. It was delicious. It was all dark meat which I would have asked for some white meat but otherwise it was delicious.

This is a pretty low key restaurant I was craving phó so I searched for a local place. This location popped up and without a menu or price I ordered a beef brisket takeout order. Much to my surprise it was a great price and delicious meal! They were decently busy and it's an easy place to find, I'm definitely be ordering more!!

Excellent Thai restaurant! Service was fantastic. Multiple people checked on us throughout the meal. The spring rolls with peanut sauce were delicious. Phanaeng curry with steamed rice was wonderful. The Pad Gra Prow Goong Kai Dao had great shrimp. I highly recommend Thai This for wonderful food

This was a new spot I went to with a friend from work who had been there previously, and the Thai and Lao inspired food were fantastic! I had both the Pad Gra Prow Gai Kai Dao and the Papaya Salad at spice level 2, and they were both delicious, delivering the balanced flavors and heat I was looking hoping to find. The portion sizes provided enough leftovers for lunch the next day. Very satisfying!! I can't wait to go back and try some other favorites on their menu. It is definitely on the work lunch rotation from here on out, and I can't wait to bring my daughter!

Their pumpkin curry is sooo good! I will definitely be going back for more. My daughter had pho and she said it was the best she’s ever had. We also ordered the spring rolls for our appetizer and they were delicious!

I enjoyed my food here. I took my dad for father's day and they were not as busy as everywhere else was that day. That's sad as the food was delicious and the service they provided was very attentive. Asked for suggestions and their suggestions were helpful. The beef pho was very good, beef and basil with sticky rice was flavorful, and the sweet chili sauce chicken was tasty. I personally didn't enjoy the cold shredded papaya salad, but maybe it's an acquired taste. I would go back again and try some new things. Plus the prices were reasonable.
