You don't come here to feel fancy--you come here for the spicy mint tofu and the fried banana coconut egg rolls!
I don't live on that side of town and I drive over just for a fix. There are touches of decor and while I do eat in mostly, it is dated. The servers seem very nice and don't bother you too much, but they always come right over with a refill.
The food is AMAZING--I don't feel bad for someone who gives a bad review for pad thai. uhg. That's like your friend who orders teriyaki chicken at a sushi place.
