Reviews
"Excellent service and food at this quaint restaurant. We were promptly seated and served by a friendly and personable waitress who took our order in a timely manner. We started with salad rolls, enjoying the colorful array of veggies, shrimp, tofu, and a tasty peanut dipping sauce. The portion size was ample which was delightful. This is an awesome starter to share and could even suffice as a light meal. Considering a single woman prepared food in the kitchen, our food came out so quickly! We shared massaman curry with chicken and the opakapaka with jumbo shrimp. The market price was worth paying for this seafood dish. The lemongrass sauce over the veggies and perfectly steamed fish was fresh and unique, the perfect fusion of Thai and Hawaiian flavor. The curry was excellent too. Go easy on the spice level as the food IS spicy. I loved this spot and it was some of the best Thai food I’ve ever eaten."
"Incredible curry cuisine for visitors in the heart of hilo! Had few meals at this location and always amazed by the options we found. On the top of the list is the apple banana red curry, it is just delicious, refreshing and tasty. The catch of the day with curry presented in a pineapple is also a preferred. The portions are big, however no food was left on the table. Take your time to explore this fantastic gem."
"Highly recommend. Unique and very tasty menu items that the chef Tina created. Tried the pineapple nut salad and it was spectacular - perfect balance of fresh flavors and LOTS of nuts. Delicious. Also tried the Thai pizza. The squash balances out the flavors very well. Portions are huge and definitely for sharing. I would absolutely come back here. I noticed some comments below commented on the wait staff being rude - I didn’t think this AT ALL and thought our waitress was very nice and attentive."
"Amazing delicious and fresh food. Huge portions. Unique and quaint atmosphere. Service was great. We really enjoyed the Cara Cara Orange Salad and the Tina's Thai Pizza. Fantastic. Highly recommend!"
"Great Thai food ; very delicious and tasty. Portions are quite huge and filling. All types of Thai curries were simply amazing and we loved every bit of it. We also loved the raw papaya salad which was again in huge portions. The noodles soup was also excellent and tasted like pho. The host was very friendly and service was pleasing. Looks like it’s a family run business and they work really hard to make their customers happy."
