   The food was spicy which is what's expected, but they didn't ask how spicy we wanted it, so it was too spicy for my wife. The Pork and Shrimp Gyoza was the best part of the meal. Highly recommended!! Note: Bring a cushion to sit on ;)

   On our first visit noted the decor is a bit sparse, wood bench seats uncomfortable and ceiling has some type of white foam blown on pipes and air ducts making it look unfinished and odd. I did not see a place to hang our coats. Food was served lukewarm. The curry dish was a bit paste like with a lot of onions, cut three different ways and minimal other vegetables.  The brown rice was dry. The steak and rice dish was much more flavorful and the Thai lager good. You have to request a spoon and sweetener if you order hot tea. Prior to ordering the shrimp dish, requested tails removed (since OSHA said they would last time we ate there) and was told this chef would do it this time since they were not busy, but would not in the future.  Not a great approach if you want return customers. Apparently OSHA has the same owner, but different managers and staff, so they don’t consider themselves sister restaurants per waitress.

   First time dining here for dinner. Had a reservation and was seated promptly. Atmosphere was very casual, with a sterile cafeteria like feel. Lighting was kind of harsh and table and chairs were very basic and uncomfortable. Tried one of the iced teas which was very tasty. Ordered 2 appetizers. Both came out just warm enough to eat, should’ve been hotter. The rib appetizer was very tough and grizzly. There were 4, we ate 2 and told server the issue with the quality. Someone else came to the table and told us they’d take off half the price from the bill because we ate 2 of the ribs. Wrong answer. Entire cost of app should have been comped. They made a bad experience worse over $5.50. The entrees were just ok. Nothing terribly wrong but I’ve had much better Thai food elsewhere. My meal was supposed to have grilled salmon but the salmon came out crispy and greasy as if it had been fried instead of grilled. Might consider trying again for lunch or takeout but not my idea of an enjoyable dinner place. I hope they work out the kinks in the kitchen and management improves their customer relation skills. I really wanted to love this place.

   Yum! Another best in class restaurant from the same owners of OSHA. The dumplings were delicious as was my shrimp and purple superfood rice ! Our waitress was lovely. Thanks for a great dining experience:)

    Service was excellent! The shrimp and pork dumplings were delicious. I was impressed with the beverage choices as well. We decided on the rose milk tea and it was great! The atmosphere is beautiful! Will return again soon.
