Amazing drunken noodles!! We came here after a long travel day, and I couldn’t have been happier with our choice. Street parking was fairly easy and the woman inside was so friendly and accommodating.We often frequent Thai for eating out and always gauge the place based on their drunken noodles. These were the fattest, thickest, chewiest noodles I think I’ve ever had! Great flavor, perfect spice. Both the pork and chicken were great. Couldn’t be better. We also got the chicken satay which was out of this world and melt in your mouth. Alongside a Thai iced tea, we left so full and so satisfied. It all came out piping hot, fresh, and so delicious.Highly recommend!! - Seiyoung
