Amazing food, definitely at the top of the list.
We ordered the Kao Soi and the Pho Sate for noodle soups which were both delicious! We also had Drunken Noodles and Jungle Curry another day for lunch which was also very good.


We came around 11:50 AM (20 minutes after they open) and the restaurant was already almost full.
Apparently it's quite popular and there's usually a line.
You can get in line ONLINE too.
That can save you some time waiting in the cold. Service is excellent.
Clean, well organized and everything was pretty quick. We ordered: - Drunken noodles with fried chicken: it's pretty good 5/5.
Has great flavor, noodles were cooked perfectly.
Generous portion and a good amount of veggies.
Definitely worth it to add scripy fried chicken. - Bun bo Hue: 3/5 it's not bad but it's not quite the standard Bun bo Hue, and not so flavorful.
Some of the meat was tender but most wasn't.
I had to chew quite a bit.
I wouldn't order this again.


Food here is really good! Could be the best Thai restaurant in Boston, and the wait is not that bad.
We ordered; Roti and Curry Dip, which was tasty but wish pancakes were a bit less greasy.
Chicken Wings were fine.
Vegetable Pad Thai was good! And Drunken Noddle with Crispy Chicken was also good.
Btw their menu has pictures for all the options! The host and the waiter were really nice and friendly.
Finally, portions are big so be ready to eat :)
