I was blown away with the quality and freshness of my lunch from here. You can tell they care about their customers and take pride in quality. 20/10, had the fresh shrimp spring rolls with peanut sweet peanut sauce, and tom yum soup(mild tofu) - don't think twice, order here already!
Jennifer BIt is without a doubt my favorite restaurant. Their food is consistent, it's flavorful. In my opinion it's more affordable than other places in town. They give you healthy amount so you can have leftovers if you want. I take my parents and friends there when they come to visit. Plus their staff is kind and funny. It's worth noting that I only order the pad Thai bc I'm loyal that way. So the pad Thai is really really good.
Trionna AThai Diner always has friendly staff, a great atmosphere, and delicious food! My family has been eating there for several years, and have yet to have an experience that isn't 10/10. Great folks, great food, great value.
