“ We ordered egg rolls to start, then three dishes. Outstanding. So delicious. That's all I have to say. ”
“ me and my husband moved from California to Payson and I have to say this is the BEST place to get Thai Food that is comparable to our beloved Thai Spoons back in Sunnyvale. We were sad to think we may not have good Thai food in such a small town but WE ARE SO HAPPY to have found this place!! The owner is a lovely lady that is always so sweet! If she has time, she will come over and greet you and aask if you liked the food and give great suggestions for what to try if you're not sure. she truly makes you feel loved because she wants you to EAT GOOD! everything we have tried so far is so AMAZING. ALL of the curries are but our personal favorite has to be the yellow, panang, and green curry! We also really love the egg drop soup which is a wonderful starter or to go soup to have at home just to finish you off. For dessert I really love the thai tea. I had never tried thai tea before but the owner suggested it as she said "it's really good, you should try!" So I did and I was PLEASANTLY surprised. I take one to go as I am lactose intolerant and would rather use my lactose free milk at home to mix it. This is. MUST TRY THAI FOOD SPOT! BEST one in town! You will NOT be disappointed! Irene &Zi ”
“ This place has the best Chinese and Thai food, excellent service, clean and friendly staff ”
“ Amazingly delicious local food. The egg rolls are so good and my favorite appetizer. Staff are so friendly, helpful and welcoming. Restrooms are sparkling clean. I would happily recommend! ”
“ Had a craving for Chinese food after watching cooking videos, so I stopped by. Broccoli beef was tasty, as were the egg rolls. Pretty good chance I'll be back in if I'm in Payson much in the future. Looking at other reviews, this is a rural small town Thai and Chinese restaurant in a strip mall. Is it the best Chinese I've ever had? No, but it's a solid and tasty option that I'm glad I stopped in at. ”
“ This was about the 5th time we have visited. This place is our new go-to for Thai & Chinese food on the Rim / White Mountain area. The wait staff are absolutely tremendous. They are constantly checking on you to see if you need anything else. When we took my wife's service dog in, they made sure that she was served some freshly cooked chicken, no additional charge, and gave her a bowl of water. On this visit, we took a good friend of ours, a Payson local. She thoroughly enjoyed the sweet and sour chicken with rice. My wife really enjoyed her general tso's chicken, and my Pad See Ewe with chicken (Thai hot, make me cry) was absolutely amazing. We all thoroughly enjoyed the appetizer platter, with the tempura, vegetables, shrimp, onion rings, dumplings, spring rolls, it's just good. Try it. This is one of the few places in the area that I have found Tom Kha soup... And they do it PERFECTLY! The great thing about the food here, is it is not too sweet, as with many other Asian places in the area. The orange chicken has a citrusy orange flavor without too much sweetness, same for the general tso's, it's orange chicken with additional peppers. Even the sweet and sour is not overpoweringly sweet. The sweet chili dipping sauce for the spring rolls etc. Is some of the best I have ever had. The owners and chefs are native Thai, they know what they're doing, and the food is amazing, as is the service. Great prices, great food, great service, if you want good Asian food on the mountain, you need to go here. ”
“ We were in Payson for the weekend and found this hidden little gem. First off the server (could've been owner) Was hilarious and the service was great!! The food was surprisingly excellent. We did several dishes and shared. Kung Pow chicken, shrimp fried rice, sweet and sour chicken and yellow chicken curry, egg rolls and Thai tea. Everything was excellent. The portions were great for sharing. The yellow curry was so good I keep thinking about it! Warning the tea is so good but don't over drink it you might be pacing the floors at 2am asking yourself why did I drink so much. Check it out and enjoy! ”
“ Literally the BEST food ever!! So fresh and flavorful. Service was amazing and made me feel like family. Definitely recommend and will DEFINITELY go again!! ”
