This little restaurant is hidden behind a bar. The menu is simple but has enough variety to suit everyone, from vegetarian dishes to meat and prawns. We ordered vegetarian spring rolls to start, stir-fried broccoli, Pad Thai with prawns, and a prawn curry. The total bill came to 225 QZ. The flavors were good overall -- my favorite dish was the stir-fried broccoli: simple, but really tasty. The décor is basic, but the service was friendly and quick. It’s a small place with around 7-8 tables and clearly loved by locals, so it’s a good idea to come early. If you’re traveling solo, sharing a table is common -- I saw a few solo travelers doing so. Important: payment is cash only.

I had the Pad Thai with shrimp and the spring rolls. It was my favorite thing I ate in Panajachal for a week. I liked it so much that I came the next day for lunch to have the pad Thai again. Friendly, welcoming service too. A nice change of pace from the asadors and churssacitos all over town.

Best Pad Thai I've had outside of Thailand! The chef is Thai, the site is simple, the pad thai was truely delicious and authentic. Plus: the portion is HUGE and fuels the backpacker's stomach well after a day of exploring! Just go for it

The staff were so friendly and food tasted delish but annoyingly gave my boyfriend food poisoning from the Pad Thai he has been so ill the last 2 days. I had the green curry, again was delish and I was fine.
