“ This place is a hidden gem! It’s been around for 14 years, and their fried rice dishes are unforgettable: the KraPow over rice is super flavorful with sweet and spicy Thai basil chicken, and the Crab Fried Rice tastes just like authentic Thai street food. The Steak Basil Fried Rice is rich and delicious too! For appetizers, don’t miss the Crab Rangoon—so creamy! I love their coconut milk soup and Tom Yum soup too, you can taste a nice balance. For dessert, the Mango Sticky Rice is a must-try—sweet mango with warm sticky rice, coconut milk and flakes.. Highly recommend! ”
