Garlic it has a good flavor,
but it is SMALL for the price paid.
Egg Roll (4) they're good, but more like spring rolls to me.

This is the best Thai restaurant ever!!! My favorites are the mango curry and tom kha, and the staff always gets my special requests just right. The pumpkin custard is so rich and decadent, made with coconut milk, the mango sticky rice is also delicious. This is my absolute favorite place for healthy comfort meals and desserts.

The pumpkin custard is also lactose free, made with coconut milk and real shredded pumpkin! It's so rich, creamy, and decadent, this is now my default place for healthy comfort meals.

The veggies in the Egg Roll (4) were shredded which I loved. They were more chewy than crispy if you like them that way. Red Curry was actually spicy like I wanted and Thai Ice Tea was the perfect sweet drink to wash it down with.
The restaurant did accidentally add a charge to my order but immediately contacted me and made sure I got a dessert. Ended up spending a bit more than I wanted but at least they gave me something for it

This is my third time trying the Basil Fried Rice and it never fails to be consistently the best fried rice dish I've had. I get it at the 4/5 spiciness, which is the perfect balance of heat and flavor, nose runnin afterwards, but my mouth isn't on fire, if you get what I mean. Portion size is good, you can get about two servings worth if you're not a big back like me. But it's so good I'm scraping the bottom of the bowl usually. My one critique is that I'd like to try it with shrimp instead of chicken, but I can't justify the extra $5 price tag for it.
