Review


I and my dining partner both got sick here. I found a piece of the very-not-gluten-free soy meat in my green curry. I don't know what did it for my partner in the pad thai, but she was significantly sicker than I was, and we didn't share any bites or anything. We got a full refund and the server was apologetic, but I can't recommend this place and will not return. I have had better outcomes at restaurants that barely know what gluten is.

This is unfortunate, because gluten-free items are clearly marked on the menu and the server was very understanding and knowledgeable. Hopefully they will make changes in the kitchen to avoid sickening people in the future.
