August visit. Huge menu, so while there is something for everyone, it takes a while to choose. Can’t go past spring rolls. A little heavy on the onions in each dish but great flavours and good service.
Amazing food. My favorite Thai restaurant in Waikiki. I’ve been here before with friends and came in with my husband today. The food was amazing, again. My husband is on mostly a vegan diet and there were veggie and tofu options for almost all the dishes. Great service and great food.
I ordered drunken noodle with shrimp and it was sooo delicious! I usually can’t finish a whole dish but it was so tasty so I finished it all! If you love stir fried noodle I really recommend drunken noodle☺️ I think you could choose additional ingredients like shrimp that i chose. There were more options like seafood, pork etc. I recommend 😊
We ordered takeout - pad Thai and green curry. Really authentic and delicious - hot is very spicy, not American standard joke spicy level, which is what we want. Be careful. Only thing to note is that curry doesn’t come with rice and you have pay $2 extra to get rice.
If you are looking for authentic Thai food, look no further. I lived in Thailand for years, my wife is Thai, and we both very much enjoyed the food here. Some hints for those who are used to Americanized Thai food. Don't order the Pad Thai.... I've never seen an actual Thai person eat that. Don't order the green curry... while Thai people eat that sometimes, there is so much more that is better. If you want a standard Thai meal, order the Som Tum (Papaya salad, pictured... most Thai people can eat this every day), larb mu (ground pork, also pictured), and/or pad gra pow (you can do beef or pork) thai people eat these three staples regularly, and this restaurant does them all well with an Isan (northeastern Thailand) flavor. Finally, expect this food to be spicy. Real Thai food is, and Isan food is quite spicy. If you aren't into spicy food you will run into challenges.
