What to Order
Pad Thai
This classic Thai noodle dish is a standout, praised for its exceptional flavor and perfect balance, often highlighted by the fresh cilantro.
"Best pad Thai i ever had in my life just that simple the cilantro what a touch just wow."
Ricky
Pad Kaprao
A flavorful and spicy dish that consistently receives high marks for its delicious taste, though be prepared for the heat.
"the plate that i ordered (Pad Kaprao) was super delicious for me, but there is no child on earth could eat that because of 🌶️🔥, even my wife couldn’t even taste it."
George Georgian
Pumpkin Fritters (Galettes de citrouille)
These fritters are a highly recommended appetizer, noted for their deliciousness and often prompting repeat orders.
"The fritters were amazing! (ended up ordering another serving)."
Sheri Mackenzie
Pear Sticky Rice
A delightful and innovative dessert, especially appreciated for its seasonal twist and the accompanying Thai tea sauce.
"Got the pear sticky rice for dessert. Also fantastic. LOVE the thai tea sauce on this. Also love the fact that they do a more seasonal pear sticky rice when mangoes are not as seasonal."
Debarati
Tom Yum Special
This special soup is celebrated for its creamy texture, aromatic profile, perfect spice level, and generous, juicy shrimp.
"La spéciale Tom Yum était crémeuse, parfumée, épicée à souhait. Crevettes dodues et juteuses, croquant des arachides, citronnelle généreuse, acidité bien dosée et bouillon umami."
