"Came here tonight for dinner based solely on ratings and reviews since I'm not from the area and was craving Thai food. All in all I was a bit disappointed and really don't see how this place has a 4.5 star rating??I was one of two parties and a total of three people were there to eat. The service was sub par in my opinion considering the place was nearly empty and my server rarely came over to see if I needed anything. They did have about 6 people come in for to-go orders while I was there, however there seemed to be another person taking care of those so there's no reason my server should have been so absent other than lack of customer care. If it was just the lack of service I'd probably have given another star, but one of the dishes I ordered wasn't very good as well. I ordered a lot of food for one person hoping to take some back to my hotel for a later meal. I started with the fresh basil rolls and a small bowl of Tom Kha soup. The basil rolls were okay and decent more or less. They seemed a bit small comparing them to the plethora of Thai restaurants I've visited over the years. The soup was lacking a bit and consisted of coconut milk base with chicken, mushroom and green onions. Needed tomato and yellow onion to round out the flavors. For the main dishes I ordered Yellow Curry with chicken as well as Pad Thai with tofu. The curry dish was the biggest issue and main reason for only two stars. This is one of my favorite Thai dishes and it was very bland overall and the potatoes were not fully cooked which totally ruined the dish. The light at the end of the tunnel that saved this place from a one star rating from me was the Pad Thai. This was actually very good and had great flavor so I ate what I could of the curry and saved the majority of the Pad Thai to bring back for leftovers. Unfortunately, first impressions are hard to forget and I doubt I'll try this place again next time I'm in town."
