This restaurant is fantastic. Bigger on the inside too! Please type of seating, great parking. Hats off to the service and the food. I don't have Thai very often, but I'd like to make this place one of my weekly favorites!

Great, as good as any good Thai restaurant in a big city. They accommodated our dietary restrictions and kindly cooked plain chicken for our dogs in the car. Service was very good and food was delicious. Prices were dated so I upload menu, I'm happy I found them.

My friend invited me up for lunch and suggested this place. I'm glad she did! This was my first time here but won't be the last. It's a nice little restaurant. I ordered L8 - Gail Krob. That was very delicious and very filling. My friend had L6 - Muay Thai Chicken. She enjoyed it! We both had sweet tea! We also got bowls of a broth with rice in it. It was really good. Prices were very reasonable for the amount we got for lunch. The staff were very friendly and helpful! Plenty of parking! If you are visiting Elkin, definitely stop here!!

My wife and I have been going here for years. Our first visit I asked for the thai hot. It wasn't hot for me. I'm a chili head and love the burn. On second visit they said they could double the thai hot for me which would be equivalent to a level 10 heat. It was hot but needed more. On my third visit I presented them with some of my own spice blend. After that they understood my heat. We discussed and now I get a level 20. This is not for the faint of heart. The owners are great and always a pleasure to talk to. This last visit was exactly what we always get. I get a D9 the thai sesame chicken level 20 heat and my wife got the F3 chicken, no heat. Opposites attract lol. Fast friendly service, quiet atmosphere.

This was my first visit. The exterior was rough. We felt very welcomed upon entry. Great menu selections. They were out of duck but we found alternatives. The flavor profile was perfect. The staff were very friendly. 1 person in our party was new to Thai flavor profiles. She loved the food. Thank you all! You're a hidden gem. We'll be returning!

All the other reviews here are correct - incredible Thai food!!! We got take out during a weekend stay and everything was delicious. Fresh spring rolls, tofu curry, pad Thai with chicken, we loved it all. The place is small and kind of hard to spot, but don't be fooled (again as other reviews have noted). Great staff, great prices, and awesome food - don't miss it!!!
