Pad Thai - Bad Thai. Perhaps there was a different cook on Wednesday - but the food we took out was simply awful. The Thai fried rice which was supposed to have a mixture of seafood and assorted meats had mostly onion and the rice was bland & unflavored. The % of rice to meat, or vegetable was 95:5. The Pad Thai had the same level of mixed meats in there and no hint of Lemon Grass, or even Nam Pla. The peanut sauce which was served on the side seemed to have come out of a bottle and was actually the most flavorful part of the meat. The Thai mixed vegetables was drowning in brown sauce and seemed more Chinese than Thai. The Satay beef which we ordered on skewers was tough, previously cooked for speed and one of the skewers had old meat on there!!! There was little care about the quality of the food, and paying 8.50 +++ for entrees that showed this level of disrespect for Asian cuisine suggests they are the only game in town for Thai, and as such - could give a whit about taste, or quality for Gloucester residents. Seriously - I can experiment on my own using fresh ingredients and come up with a better meal than what these folks created/ We will never try this place again.

A good Thai family restaurant. Its a quaint, cozy restaurant with a good atmosphere. I like their massaman and green curry but their best dish was the pad thai. The chicken was a little dry but the curry was flavorful and tasty. Their Thai fried rice was ok but not great. The phuket fried rice was good. I didt try the shrimp in a blanket and scallion pancake appetizer that my kids ate. They wolf them down without complaint so I assume theyre good too. The service was good so I will definitely come again when I need lunch or dinner while in Gloucester.

This was the worst Pad Thai I have ever eaten! There was a burnt/ rancid taste in it. The noodles were mushy the vegetable overcooked and the egg was definitely burned! I ate a little of the mushy noodles but, even though I was hungry. I was really afraid I would get sick. I politely told the server that my food tasted rancid and very overcooked. She shrugged her shoulders and asked if I would like to box it to take home....NO thank you. I thought this was a good restaurant. Did they change cooks?

A great american thai place. The servings are generous, the thai iced tea is rich, the coconut and ginger ice creams are unreal. Im always happy with what I get. I usually go for Drunken Chicken with brown rice, occasionally fried rice, occasionally other things. Sometimes I do an app of spring roles. Always satisfied. The service is really friendly and nice.

Our meats were not cooked. Just a bit past dead. I can excuse a bad meal...however when I point it out to the staff and the reply is "you can stick it in the microwave"....I draw the line. "Heres your order...just go home and cook it yourself." 1 star

Been coming back since they first opened. Love the tamarind duck, red curry and massaman curry, all my go-to dishes.The only place where I actually like the tofu. Pad Thai is an affordable, tasty option when you cant decide what you want.

Better than your typical Asian restaurant for sure. Prices are totally doable, the place is clean and they have a couple of Thai beers to offer. Will return, would recommend, but probably wont be the first place I think of to eat.

Best and Only Thai Food on Cape Ann!! Authentic dishes. Great atmosphere. Great take-out. Pad Thai and Massaman Curry is first class. Kind people run it. Check it out. It is the only purple building on Main St :) 5 stars.

Usually good food, especially good pad thai. Sometimes its not quite what youd expect since the menu descriptions arent great. Plenty of seating, or you can get takeout which is usually very fast.

Amazing service and food. I would recommend the Thai fried rice. This has such a nice flavor to it and it isnt as heavy and salty as other fried rice dishes! Their ice coffee is great as well!

This place makes decent Thai food for take-out and dine-in service in a modest dining room for not particularly cheap in Gloucester.
