  • What a " Wonderful Little Neighborhood Thai Eatery " !!! We've Patronized them since the Early ' 90's , and the Food Quality has remained " Consistent ". Quaint Half-Basement Ambiance " overlooking a Side Garden. EZ street parking on Solano Avenue & Adjoining Streets !!!!

  • Although there are very few vegan options here, I was pleasantly surprised with the Peanut Sauce Salad. They give you a lot of peanut sauce, on the side, which is great because I prefer lighter dressing. Truly, this was a great combination of flavors. Loved the crunchy bits at the top. It was very fresh and delicious. The photo doesn't show the actual green in the salad, but I assure you it's there and there's plenty of it. Very filling! On a nice summer day, their unique patio is absolutely wonderful. And the server was very kind and courteous.

  • Had lunch there with a friend a few days ago. This restaurant has wonderful Thai food, excellent fresh ingredients and friendly service. The one thing I wish they would change, are those awful metal trays in which they serve the lunch special!! They are inconvenient to eat from them. Hard to scoop the soup from the indentation. Too bad they changed from using regular plates to those metal trays. Hope new owners reconsider and go back to plates. All their wonderful food looses it's appeal when served in those metal trays.

  • I absolutely adore this cozy spot. My husband had the grilled pork with pineapple, and it was incredible. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere with plenty of outdoor seating, which was perfect for our toddler to move around safely. I would definitely recommend visiting for a delightful meal and a relaxed experience.

  • Yummy Thai food. Best Tom Kha soup I’ve ever had. The metal trays at lunch are a bit unusual, but the food is delicious.

  • This is my new favorite Thai place in Berkeley! Ingredients are really fresh, there are even fun new additions like Thai tacos. Service is always immaculate and they are so nice. I can’t vouch for the pad Thai because I always get a special but I like that everything on the kids menu is really mild.

  • Delicious soup, salad, rice, egg roll, and main entree for their lunch special with plenty of vegetarian options. Everything was flavorful and the lychee iced tea was sweet enough to be dessert. Luckily they had an outdoor dining option as well!
