Just got take out for lunch. Tiny place in the back of a busy gas station, so there’s your ambiance. Some of my favorite restaurants sell gasoline, so I’m good. Green curry was excellent, and had a good spicy bite to it. Pad Thai was very good, though the sauce was a little sweet for my taste. A couple of tubs of their spicy chile paste took care of that The noodles were very well-presented in their styrofoam container and the tofu was freshly deep fried and delicious. We’ll go back soon.

Ever since I’ve moved from Vegas, I’ve had a hard time finding food able to compete with my favorites, but this place claims a spot. The food is amazing, fresh and the service is great. Super friendly! I will absolutely be back time and time again!

This place is in a Chevron station which is a little weird but the food we ordered was excellent! We had the red curry with pork and the avocado spring rolls. The curry was a bit skimpy on the pork but very flavorful and lots of eggplant. The rolls were very fresh and crunchy- really great with two delicious dipping sauces.

Richard is who you'll speak to when you visit this place... The food is really delicious, and the portions generous. After a long day of traveling and hiking, it felt like we visited family when we got food from this place. Really yummy this food, Pat is a great cook. Richard and Pat laid out a table and chair for us, and took care of every need. We will definitely go there again when we're in the area next.

We love to get a snack, Thai tea or a full meal here. The owners are polite and have great customer service. The appetizers (pot stickers & fried tofu) are delicious and served hot. The Lotus dish is very filling and full of taste. We cannot wait to try their International fried rice dish. Great little hidden food gem in this mid-size town.

This is our new favorite Thai place! Love that they offer several types of fresh rolls and have amazing peanut sauce. Their pad Thai is the best we’ve had in town. Ingredients are fresh and dishes are flavorful and not covered in a ton of sickly sweet sauce like at other Thai places in Farmington and Aztec. The only thing that could’ve made the food better is some Thai basil, but I know that can be difficult to get around here. For those who’ve never been, it’s not located in a food truck as some pictures show. It’s actually inside the gas station. Call ahead to do a pick up order.

Oh my! Best Thai food I’ve had in many years. Sadly I’m just passing through on my motorcycle. But you locals need to overrun this little food truck gem. I had the red chicken curry with rice noodles and an order of fresh rolls. Worth every dime. Absolutely DEELISH.
