Traditional Thai food must come here, delicious, clean and hygienic. 
Best Thai food I’ve ever had. Amazing. 
7/11/20 - we arrived and the greeter/to go order giver was NOT wearing his mask over his mouth and nose. We were seated just a couple feet from another table. It took 8-10 minutes until our waitress even came to our table. We were just getting ready to leave at this point. It took another 5 minutes to get our water and drinks. I ordered the Pad Thai with Shrimp (no green onions). It was cold around the edges and hot in the middle and had onions. Of the 4 meals orders, 2 people didn't eat much. One described her meal as slimey. Also, buried in the menu near the back is a 18% gratuity for parties of FOUR (4) or more. I complained about this but the owner wouldn't even talk about it. This is the worst Thai place that I've ever eaten. It doesn't represent the many restaurants in Sedona. 
great food I love the pad thai the tea and the soups. yummy 
Excellent food. I recommend. 
Food is fantastic as is the service 
they deserve a vegan family while we were there and they seemed happy!
