Small authentic restaurant. The orange chicken was super dry but the sauce was perfect. otherwise everything else was flawless. Il definitely come back again and again. I hope they consider raising prices a tiny bit and taking time to making fresh tempura chicken instead of serve old chicken. I would highly recommend this place overall.

Food always tastes fresh and hot! Full of flavor and they give good portions. Each of their entrees comes with a free drink which is always nice. Definitely recommend their curry dishes, each one is amazing but the best are C1, C2 and C4!!

Went here for lunch carry out for the first time last week. It looks like ALL entrees are $17.95, regardless of what meat you choose. The portion size was decent, tho. Both the hot & sour soup and Pad Thai were exceptional. My only disappointment would be the spice level. I ordered both items medium spicy--and there was absolutely no spice at all! I was bummed, but since I took it home and not back to work, I had plenty of chili crisp to jazz them up. Still, I expect Thai Medium to have a good bit of heat?? Just fyi.

Best Thai food I've had .I eat it regularly where I live. I'd be here weekly if I could. Had Tom yum soup, spring roll and C4 gang pak with shrimp. Quality, freshness and taste are superior. Even the shrimp are noteworthy!! Only 2 tables to eat in but takeout is super busy and efficiently served. Go and thank me later!!

Best Thai food on east side. Very flavorful curries (Gang Pak with scallops is my favorite), and Pad Thai. No longer dine-in, but 20% cash discount for take outs. Wonderful family-run business.

10/10! I got the chicken pad thai (medium spice) and a few veggie spring rolls. The pad thai hit the spot, although the spice level was very mild. Flavors were on point, chicken was tender, and the portion size was generous. The spring rolls were truly a treat. Not only are they affordable, but the texture was perfectly light and crispy, and when paired with the dipping sauce the flavors were top tier. The service when I arrived to pick up was quick and friendly. She even offered me to grab a drink from the fridge for free! I paid with cash to get the discount and I’m happy I did so because this was truly a bang for my buck. I will definitely be returning to Amy’s very soon.

It's really intended to be a takeout place, but we dined in anyways! Food is crazy good. Everyone bragged up their own order. We got 4 rice dishes and we absolutely loved the flavors. Personally my favorite was the garlic rice with pork. The pork was exceptionally tender and the flavors were garlicky and perfect. Flavor wise, probably one of the best Thai Places I've enjoyed. I for the first time didn't order a red coconut curry, but now I have to come back and order it to compare against others!!
