Blech! Just wasted a bunch of money on yucky food here. We were here a few years ago and it was good but it has gone way down hill. The dining room was dingy with worn, dirty carpet. Everything on the appetizer platter we ordered was leaden and greasy ... none of the delicate, balanced flavors that we had remembered. Started eating and then looked down to see a hair on my plate. Som tum was crunchy but overly salty which could have been a hefty dose of msg. (Come to think of it I remember having a conversation with friends about how much msg Phuket uses.) Our entree of sweet and sour fish was also heavy on the salt (and msg) in a red gloppy sauce. I was starved when I came in but after a few bites of each dish I lost my appetite. What a waste of money and food since obviously we didn't want to take it home with us. Bummer! Don't make the same mistake!
Cons: yucky food

We literally stumbled upon this restaurant very close to Honolulu downtown since we couldn't find Keo's. Boy, was it a find. This is fantastic restaurant and we're both vegetarian so was still very cool. There was a long wait - so this is where the local's eat good Thai food. Don't remember the names of the dishes we tried but a "vegetarian rice noodle" dish was awesome.
Pros: Relatively easier parking
Cons: Long wait
