In Short – Don't be swayed by the simple awning and humble entrance. Alex Thao runs an award-winning restaurant, renowned for top-notch ingredients and knowledgable service. The redesigned dining room contains just a handful of booths, small tables, and a hip bar scene. The menu is well organized into noodle, meat and curry dished and specialties abound, like the mot-to-be-missed Celadon Shrimp. Most are on the spicy side, but servers are happy to help customize the right level of heat. –
