Kind of surprised this is a place that a lot of people verbally recommend. The food was good, not great; we got the spring rolls (very fried outer shell, yummy fresh filling), pad se ew (tasty, but not much depth), tom kha soup (generous amount of mushrooms), and the mixed veggies stir fry with garlic (very one-note). The service was friendly and they knew what was vegan, what dishes didn’t have fish sauce or to remove egg. The place itself had dirt & grime on top of almost everything like the fake plants and the ceiling vent, boxes were all in the main room, and the bathroom had literal cobwebs from the ceiling.
