"*FOOD QUALITY* Best Thai food I've had hands down. The ingredients were super fresh, the portions were plentiful for two people ordering, and the flavors were abundant. Green Curry Fried Rice Wow. Got this to share between myself and one other person and it was enough for both of us AND we had leftovers. The shrimp is a reasonable size and every ingredient was cooked so well loved the longer grain of rice they used and the flavor was spicy but not overly so (we got spice level 2). If you want more, they provide a spice rack. The eggplant is a spiffy touch it was cooked very well and great at balancing out spicy bites. Green beans, bell peppers, and fried eggs paired alongside the other flavors culminated into a savory, thrilling experience. Super! Mango Sticky Rice I've been on the hunt for a great mango sticky rice, this is it y'all. The mango was just the right sweetness, ripeness, and juiciness at a nice cool temperature that nicely juxtaposed the steaming sticky rice next to it. The sticky rice is green, assuming it's pandan, and the texture was amazing! I'm someone who loves mochi, so to find this rice with a specific grainy sweetness but also a gummy bounce sparked a lot of joy. The coconut dressing with sprinkling of sesame seeds was also not overpowering coming from someone who despises coconut I was very happy with this dish! *CUSTOMER SERVICE* Loved my servers! One was understanding when I got scared about a wasp that was climbing the window that my arm was next to, and got rid of it right away. The other made a great recommendation on the spice levels (with a fair warning about how intense they could be). Super friendly and welcoming. *AMBIANCE* This joint lies along a cute street lined with thrift shops in downtown Ventura. There is plentiful outdoor seating (a must during beautiful SoCal summer days) as well as seating in doors. The mural and the large windows give the place an open feel which I liked! I believe Thai pop was playing over the speakers and the TV had a show about street market foods, which all created a ~vibe~. I parking in one of the free lots a couple blocks down and walked to the restaurant. Interestingly, Rice by Mama 1 is literally a block down from this one. Not sure why they are both so close to each other, but amusing."
