    The Gai-Baby Corn was very good, and the staff was very friendly and fast.

    Tom yum soup: 6 small shrimp and mushrooms $14. Seafood salad: shrimp, calamari, onions and mint $14. Steamed vegetables. Asked for spicy but nothing was.

    This place may have slow service but the food is good great for large groups and the noise level is low so you can actually have a working lunch here and doesn't break bank either

    Food was so-so, with the exception of the Tom Kha Gai which was one of the best I've had.

    The most 80s-vibed Thai joint you'll ever find. Neon tube lights, Kenny G blastin'.

    Crispy tofu appetizer. Cheap, tasty, and feeds many (a dozen or so large pieces).

    Cheap and cheerful. If you order a prawn dish, they'll only give you 3-4 prawns. Sometimes it's the quality AND the quantity.

    Vegetarians! All of their "deep fried tofu" is cooked in the same deep fryer oil as EVERYTHING else! Ask for stir-fried or steamed/plain tofu.

    The service can be slow (our nickname for this place is "Slow Thai") but it's decent food and reasonably priced.

    Pad Thai was bland and disappointing. We improved it by pouring tom kha over it.
