The restaurant has a cozy Southeast Asian vibe with colorful hanging lamps that add a nice atmosphere. One highlight was their pandan drink,fragrant and refreshing, and honestly even better than Thai milk tea. The soft shell crab red curry was very flavorful and paired perfectly with rice. The tom yum seafood soup was nicely balanced, sour and spicy with plenty of seafood. The pineapple fried rice was decent, though not the most memorable. We also tried the dessert sampler, which looked beautiful and tasted great. Overall the meal was around $30 per person, which is a pretty good value for M

We had a great experience! Although we came with a large group on a busy Friday night & we didn’t have a reservation, we were accommodated after a short wait. The service was excellent. Our waiter was very attentive & helpful. All the dishes we ordered were delicious! I can't wait to come back & try more items from the menu. The pineapple fried rice deserves special accolades for being served in a half-cut fresh pineapple. Overall, an amazing Thai spot I highly recommend.

Highly recommend the Elephant Roast Combo — a great sampler with chicken satay, fish cakes, spring rolls, and fried meatballs. The three dipping sauces were all delicious, especially the peanut sauce with the satay. The Grilled Jumbo Tiger Shrimp was huge, fresh, and loaded with garlic. The Short Rib Prik Kang was tender, flavorful, and perfect with rice. The Pad Thai was a solid classic, and the Fried Whole Tamarind Branzino was surprisingly unique with two different flavor styles on one fish. Drinks were great too! The Thai Pandan Drink was light and refreshing with a subtle coconut flavor

The Elephant Roast Combo impressed us with perfectly grilled satay skewers (that tasted like real meat), crispy bites, and balanced flavors with the 3 different sauces. My favorite dish was the Drunken Noodle with Ribeye Steak for its rich flavor and portion size. The Pineapple Fried Rice served in a carved pineapple was both instagrammable and beautifully layered. We paired our meal with a creamy Thai Iced Tea (lychee/green tea
