    The Crispy Coco is really something else! It comes to table in a stone bowl SIZZLING just like Korean bibimbap. The sticky rice gets nicely seared and crunchy on the bottom as a result. It's topped with a rich coconut sauce that's incredibly aromatic, spiced but not overly spicy, and just a touch sweet. The balance of contrasts is everything. They'll also make vegan Thai iced tea with coconut milk on request!

    I went Thai Kun for friday dinner. Luckily we just got our seat in 5 mins. I had a clay pot after reading the Yelp reviews. It was the right choice. Super delicious and hot enough!! Also I loved the mushrooms.. The service was great and atmosphere was good too!

    I went here with a friend. I love Thai food because they always have so many veggie options. This place did not disappoint. I chose to pick something a little different. It was called the crispy coco dish. It had crispy rice and soft tofu. I normally am not down for soft tofu, however they did a good job with this meal. It did not taste like a stereotypical Thai meal to me, which I liked. It had a unique flavor and the crispy rice pieces were a nice extra touch. The ambiance of this location was really cute. It would make for a cute date spot. They had other vegetarian and vegan options so I definitely want to go here again and try some other dishes out!
