Best Thai food in New Jersey! The is food is delicious and this was the best Thai fried rice I’ve had, the service was amazing! Our server and host was so friendly, professional, and fast! The food was fresh but came out in no time so if you’re hungry you don’t have to wait long! Each entrée we ordered was delicious! We will definitely be back! Great atmosphere and ambience as well!

The best Thai food ever!!!! Not to mention it’s absolutely adorable inside. And BYO! They also have a great private dining area that you could rent out for very reasonable. I love their chive pancakes appetizer and their noodle dishes. My husband and I order pad see ew and drunken noodle at least once a week. The owner is so kind and so is everyone who works here. The portions are generous and their prices are very reasonable. I have all of my friends in the area hooked now - I highlyyyy recommend them!

I got takeout and the food was good, it was ready in a timely manner, and they gave me a full container of food (no shrinkflation). Staff was very friendly and the restaurant looked nice and clean.
