My partner and I stumbled across this place on our way to somewhere else, and I'm so happy that we did. The food was phenomenal.
Tom Yum Fried rice - delicious and packed with that sweet and sour flavor.
Summer Rolls - Incredibly fresh veggies, and the peanut sauce is especially good, better than other Thai options in the area.
Pad Kapow Spicy Basil - my partner got it with duck, which was tender and with perfectly crispy skin, just the way it should be.
Crab Rangoon - my partner is kinda basic and orders this everywhere he goes, but we were impressed by how much crab is actually in them! Often you order these and they're just deep friend packets of cream cheese with a whiff of crab, but these had almost a 50/50 ratio. Very tasty.
One thing that stood out to me overall is that everything tastes very fresh and clean. All of the veggies, from the lettuce in my summer rolls to the peppers to the green beans to the herbs, we're all extremely crisp and fresh tasting. Everything has that fresh homemade taste to it.
All in all, we will definitely be back here frequently, since it's so close to home. This definitely qualifies as a hidden gem. I think it has officially become our favorite Thai place in the area!
Friendly Warning: when they say spicy, they mean Thai spicy, NOT White People Spicy. Order accordingly.

Pad Kapow Spicy Thai Basil
Very small mom and pop style restaurant with a relatively small menu. However, the food itself was incredibly good. We got crab rangoons, summer rolls, tom yum fried rice, and duck kaprow, and everything was terrific. The veggies are fresh and had a nice crunch, the duck was perfectly cooked with a nice crispy exterior. The sauces are flavorful(particularly the peanut sauce!) The rice is light and fluffy. I was amazed at how much crab was actually in the crab rangoons, which was a wonderful deviation from most restaurants’ versions. Overall, just a wonderful dining experience.
A word of warning though, when they say that medium is spicy, they aren’t lying. Unless you’re used to a lot of heat in your food, start mild and work your way up.
