“ We just arrived to the island and check for a place to eat. My boyfriend had a monster poke and a thai coffee and i had a crispy pad thai. He loved his plate, the salmon and tuna were very fresh and i enjoy my Thai but i was expecting more veggies on it. The waiter was incredibly nice. He even recommended some places and activities to do. The check was 70 something. ”
“ Fresh and tasty Poke @ great price, and green curry was also very good, both plates have a lot of veggies that we especially loved . Served quickly and the servers are very friendly. Really liked that place. ”
“ Small little place serving up great Thai food! We began with their homemade Shrimp and Pork Shumai and it was outstanding! I loved how it was slightly crispy and the sauce was perfect. For my meal I had the Pad Thai and it was excellent not too oily with a good flavor. My hubby had the Crispy Ono Chicken with Red Curry sauce on the side. We are not very familiar with curry so he got it on the side and it was delicious. Service was attentive and friendly! Would love to return if ever in Kauai again! ”
“ Very friendly place with numerous tables. Not the cleanest place or most aesthetic. Food is delicious. Lots of flavor. Wish they served more white rice and had larger plates to eat from. It was too small. My rice was falling into the soy sauce dipping portion of the plate. Serving size of the Pad Thai was a little small as well. My sister is a local and says this is her favorite Thai place on the island. I can see why. Everything tasted amazing. Wish they served a little more food. Pad Thai w/ Tofu: 5/5 Panang Curry w/ Tofu: 5/5 I’m Hungry Roll: 5/5 Mango Sticky Rice: 5/5 ”

“ We really enjoyed our lunch here. Service was kind and attentive. We ordered sushi, pad thai and 2 kinds of dumplings. We liked how the shumai was lightly fried because it added great texture! The pad thai was perfectly cooked and the sushi was very fresh. Pricing was reasonable, the restaurant was bright and parking was easy! ”
“ Fantastic sushi, great employees, reasonable price. We had the Samurai roll, Hot Mama roll, Spider roll, and Tuna Poke. Everything was delicious. The veggies in the poke bowl were surprisingly fresh and tasty. Would definitely come back. ”
