On the way to the airport we stopped by for dinner. Everything was lovely and very yummy. Kids rated food very high which is great for parents ;) The lady who served us, likely the owner, was super friendly.

The food and the service is second to none. Value for $$ and so tasty. Young Barry what a host, don’t let his small stature and age fool you he is a master server. Ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy our food. Definitely found our new favorite Thai restaurant.

Great little hidden gem for yummy Thai, close to the airport. Had just done an airport run, and didn't want airport food or fast food. Only took us five minutes to get there. We dined in. The place is clean, bright, and appealing. Service was fairly quick for cook-to-order. Food was well presented and delicious. Great value for money, especially with $15.99 lunch specials (check those out first!). But even 'normal' prices are majority under $20 and nothing over $25.

Small, cozy and clean restaurant, friendly owner and professional service! Their pad Thai and holy basil fried rice were made to perfection! No words can describe how tasty the tom yum soup was, and I highly recommend you to try all their food items on the menu. Their Thai milk tea and mango sticky rice were so good that I think about it everyday! A bonus point to the cute interior design and the board games display on the shelf, a very kid-friendly place.
