It's a small restaurant far from the tourist traps, and the food was delicious !!! 100% recommended! I ate the kao pad and it was the best i've ever tried.

god damn the owner makes some delicious thai food. the food is served just in some takeout boxes, but the taste is freaking amazing. you could put that in front of me at a 100 thai restaurant and id think im getting a good deal. gordon ramsay wouldnt be able to survive in this thai kitchen. tom yum, pad thai, pineapple shrimp curry—all delicious.

It is a very wholesome place with amazing food, and an amazing couple for the owners. I'd recommend it to anyone. Please be kind to the owners, smile, and enjoy. If I didn't have to go back to the Philippines soon, I'd visit it often.

It is a really great restaurant and really really yummy the pad Thai is amazing and the owners/ employees are the sweetest… the food is clearly fresh and authentic. Definitely should come here for some great Thai food.

Super nice staff. Great Thai food. Awesome bubble tea. Hit fresh and delicious. Love their summer rolls with shrimp. The pad Thai was delicious. Their green papaya salad was legit.

We took the Staten Island ferry to check out the Statue of Liberty and wanted to have lunch when we stopped. It’s relatively close to the ferry; just across the street from the mall. Their Pad Thai was really good and we also loved their yellow curry. Amazing value for lunch. Would definitely come back here if we were in the area.
