I’m pretty sure that if you go to UW than you already know all about this place. So for those unfortunates: Their pad thai tastes a lot different than what other thai restaurants usually offer and that’s why I like it. However, the place is really small and they only take cash. I’ve heard a few complaints over how clean they are though.. that’s why the 4, not 5, stars.

I was impressed the first time I went. However, the long lines and the bug that walked across the counter the second time make this place a little sketchy.

I don’t understand why everyone loves this place so much. The food is okay and taste like almost every other Thai restaurant on the Ave. It is also very dirty and the service is terrible!!!They once served me burned food and didn’t even give me a break on the bill. For the hour long wait, it is NOT worth it.

This place may be a hole in the wall, but it’s the best Thai food I’ve ever had. The service is fast, the food is cheap and you can watch it being made with fresh, delicious ingredients right in front of you (sometimes a little TOO close for comfort if you’re at the bar in front of the stove). My favorite dish is the Swimming Rama.
