First - the street is blocked off from traffic, so only pedestrians are allowed - that's a great start. The ambiance in the restaurant is great and the service was good. We had thd crab/shrimp spring roll appetizer and were really surprised and pleased with the presentation - the entire inside of the spring rolls (4 of them) were solid shrimp and crab! I could have made a meal with just them. The other appetizer was the marinated seared tuna (5 pieces) with a salad? on the side which was also great. Dinner was Pad Thai which was one of the best I've had.

The food was so yummy! The mussels appetizer tasted so good! The lamb was perfectly done. Only complaint is too dark and too crowded. And kind of expensive.

Live free, Thai hard!!! Excellent pad thai and pad see ew! I made lunch reservations for 10 people and had to change the time to later, just a half hour before our original reservation. They completely accommodated us with a long table set-up and chilled our BYOB wines on the tabletop. We had very tasty starters of Foie Gras and and a trio that was simply delish! (These were listed in the tabletop menu.) For our mains, my kids really enjoyed the Pad Thai and Tofu with Veggies in Garlic Sauce (they also offered curry sauce). We also had Pad See Ew with beef and asked for 2 more of them same dishes but with very spicy chicken and tofu. All were amazing! For dessert, young and old enjoyed their Mango with Sticky Rice which was perfectly sweet. Great service throughout and a great time! Here, you can live and let Thai! NOTES/TIPS: **Park in LOT 4 (metered) and go through the alley. The restaurant will be right in front of you. LOT 4 is at W. Main St (between Union St & Division St). **This restaurant is on a lively street closed off to traffic. **Indoor/outdoor seating. **Wheelchair-accessible. Bathrooms are labeled for Men and Women BUT each can be used by either and all.

Beautiful restaurant and the food was delicious. I had the green curry and Tom yum soup, both were delicious. It was the best Tom yum soup I have ever had! The green curry was very creamy and tasty. The only thing that I didn't like was the eggplant. It wasn't cooked enough, but I can always leave it out or ask them to cook it some more! My husband had fried fish in a tangy sauce and he loved it! Also, their ice cream is very good! We can't wait to go back!!!

Don't go here!!! My family recently came here for dinner time after making reservations. This is our 3rd visit and we noticed a serious decline in service and food quality not to.mention increased prices. We have always enjoyed this place but can't say this was an anomaly. Firstly, the bill was ridiculous at $175+ without alcohol and with only 3 entrees. See for yourself why. Then, they took almost 20min to come and take our order even though the place was mostly empty on a Friday night at 6pm. The servers were just joking around at the back and the host was staring aimlessly into space for minutes on end. For the appetizers we ordered curry puffs (3 very small ones with very little filling for $12), weird looking escargot ($13) that tasted disgusting and made me sick eating them and shrimp rolls which were were decent. For the entrees we ordered the seabass - good but has became very small in size ($36), lamb which was way too fatty and made my daughter sick ($34) and pad Thai which was very dry. Dessert was sticky rice which was really the only good dish along with the ice tea. On top of that there is an automatic 20% for service - how insulting. Not coming back and going to try other good Thai places. Ambience 4/5 Presentation 4/5 Food taste 0/5 - horrible Service 1/5 Price 0/5 Dissapointed.

Since this isn’t the only Thai place in the area, I wouldn’t recommend it. There’s a Thai place right across the street that is much better in my opinion. The best thing here was the French onion soup. I got pad se ew, what I usually get at Thai restaurants and it just wasn’t anything kind blowing/worth going out of the way for. It was pricey and not worth it, and we drove 30 minutes to eat here. The service was mediocre, and the servers were so u friendly, it made us feel awkward and like a burden. Definitely will not be back. My boyfriend got the pad kee mou and it was good, nothing special, but overpriced considering they lines the bottom of the place with lettuce, and there wasn’t a lot of squid.

My go to thai place any given day. Their outdoor seating on the weekend, you get to listen to live music on the street and that’s a plus. Coming to the food, the peking duck salad, chicken sate, pad see ew, duck tamarind are one of their best dishes and to die for. The staff are very friendly. They don’t accept reservations for outdoor seating though, so be prepared to wait for the table. All together, the best thai place.

One of my very favorite restaurants in NJ. Excellent noodles. Everything on the menu is good. I've spent a bunch of time in Thailand and I can vouch that the food is quite authentic. But I also appreciate the French touches
