I happened to be in the area so decided to try out this place given its reviews, and now I'm sad that I don't live in south SJ.. I had the papaya salad, mango chicken, and the fried banana. This place is pretty authentic in its flavors and spices. Eating the papaya salad reminded me of the first papaya salad I tried from a local street cart in Phuket, just the right blend of fish sauce and spices. The mango chicken was right on the dot. Chicken was super tender, and taking a bite with chicken, mango, and cashew was just amazing. And finally, the fried bananas. The other reviews were right on the dot in that the bananas weren't too oily but has the perfect combination of the crispy dough and the soft banana. Awesome. I came on a Saturday late afternoon so it wasn't too crowded. The service was pretty good, and the food arrived in minutes. The decor overall looks very Thai authentic but not too overwhelming. Great atmosphere! Would definitely come again!

The things I do for good food, including driving down to the deep depths of SJ. But you could say that the food was too en-thai-sing to pass up! (I really can't pass up a good pun) I looovee thai food and my quest for finding great thai food never stops. I was referred by a couple of my friends to try this place and it did not disappoint! Parking: Easy, it's located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Restaurant/Decor: Very traditional feel with a lot of ornate pieces and designs. It was also pretty big in size with plenty of seating and great for large parties! Service: Quick and attentive. I always take note how often my water gets filled because I'm not the most patient person so I'm very appreciative when the servers fill water without me asking :) Food: I ordered a lottt but some of the highlights were the sizzling duck, yellow curry, papaya salad, and angel wings! All the dishes had great flavor and were cooked perfectly. The duck was crisp and fatty, the yellow curry was rich with a hint of sweetness, the papaya salad was refreshing and spicy, and the angel wings were crunchy and savory. I also tried the banana fritters. The fritters were warm and melted in your mouth and is paired perfectly with pineapple ice cream! Overall I really enjoyed the food and would come back again! Definitely check out if you're in the area and enjoy some appe-thai-zing food!

Not impressed with quality or service here. The ingredients tasted canned or frozen.

We visited on a Friday evening. We did not need a reservation. We ordered the thai basil fried rice and yellow curry. Food arrived early. The portion was good enough for two people. Both the fried rice and the yellow curry tasted really good. Would definitely visit again.
