Thrilled to discover a great Thai restaurant in Tampa. The Tom Yum Goong was perfect, close to the best I have had. Wanted to order the fried Red Snapper but got the fried Grouper as they were of the snapper. Nice and crisp, cooked to perfection with an awesome chili sauce that was sweet and spicy and simply fantastic. We also got the chicken green curry and shrimp with spicy chili. All of them were delicious but the grouper stole the show.

We ordered red chicken curry and a yellow chicken curry called Panang curry. Going by the menu, chicken mussamam curry is what we received in place of Panang. The mix-up was not the biggest disappointment by far. First of all, portions were very small. Both meals had 3 - 4 small, thin medallions of chicken. For $15.95 a meal, this was ridiculous! There was more sauce than anything and I certainly wasn’t expecting potatoes in my curry. It had a few potato wedges, lots of onions, and a couple tiny carrot slices. Sauce more like a soup and flavor sub par. We order 2 Thai iced teas with the meal. The cup was filled to the top with ice and almost no tea. The tea tasted more like sugar water than Thai tea. The lid did not fit the cup. It was so loose that it wouldn’t stay on. Again sub par. I traveled a distance to go here because this used to be my daughter’s favorite Thai restaurant. She always raved about this place. Check was over $40 with tip but portion wise not even worth $10 in my opinion. I’m not sure how it gets good ratings. Such a huge disappointment!!!

Excellent food! Lunch includes soup and is a good portion of the main. Photo is of Panang curry with chicken. Cozy atmosphere with good service and great food!

First time trying this restaurant. Food was extremely fresh and good. Wait staff very attentive. Panang chicken was amazing.

This place is really dirty. Seating chairs cushions look like they haven't been washed in a while. And my food came out lukewarm and there was a fly in my food. The server brought the plates out with her hands, not on a tray like its supposed to. And the curry was only filled 1/4 of the bowl. For portions it is too expensive. Overall I was grossed out with the food because the place is unhygienic and honestly I feel like they microwave the food, it's not even fresh.
