Excellent Thai food. We got chicken satay, chicken pad Thai & chicken curry (yellow/my woman curry). Upon first bite of the satay, I instantly knew it was the best I had ever had. Juicy tender chicken, amazing spices & great peanut dipping sauce. Now, when we get Thai or anywhere else with a spice level system we usually pick second to hottest spice level.

Clean. Nice staff if not overly friendly. One woman waiting on everyone and she mostly kept our waters full and was efficient.
Ordered sausage appetizer ( good flavor if a bit dry..really needed a dipping sauce) and garlic goodness. They warn you that they spice their dishes hotter than most and so I asked for a 2.5 stars/spice and it easily would have been a 4 at other restaurants we have been to.
Very tasty and I almost was tempted to drink the broth on the plate. The rice that came with the dish was a pretty small portion and was none left over to accompany the leftovers of the main dish.

We have recently returned from a 3 week stay in Thailand. We were missing the food so we gave Esan Zap a try. So happy we did. I kept it simple with phad thai with shrimp 2 star heat level. It was so good. The shrimp were plump and fresh. We also had the boat soup. It was also excellent. So happy. We will visit often. Sorry we didn't take the picture before eating. We didn't think about doing a review until we found it so pleasing. The service was friendly and friendly.

Ate here for the first time and was delicious. I ordered the called 'Spicy Stuff' and it was delicious. I got 3/4 with the spice level which made sweat but I could've gone level 4. Definitely eating here again.

For Lacey, this place offers the best Thai. Quality and fresh ingredients. I see negative comments about the wait on Uber eats. But I’m noticing that if you call directly and pick it up, it’s regular wait times (20 mins) so my assumption this has nothing to do with the restaurant, but UberEats itself.
I’ve only had the moo yang, curry and fresh rolls so far. Everything tasted lovely. Their spice level is more spicy then usual so I’d start lower, I got a 4 and it was difficult to enjoy because of how spicy it was, and I like spice. Outside of that, no complaints.

Excellent. The dishes looked good, tasted very good. We had Pad Thai and Mango Fried Rice, both with chicken. I normally like to add pics but we were hungry and just started eating. I didn’t think of pix until later. Food spice can be 1 to 4. We like it spicy, but not burn you out. 2 was just right for us, as spicy as we liked. Generous portions. Very prompt friendly service. We will definitely return.

This wasn’t our first time dining in, the food is good and the wait is always long. Previously, there was only one person working tables and cooking- she’s great. Today was different.
Service is poor. I seen four staff members, three were standing around in the back area. Nobody was up front to greet guest, some guest actually asked for a refund and others walked out.
From a hour and a half span we received 3 dishes- two appetizers and papaya salad. We cancelled the rest of our order and left.

What a find!! Had a very good lunch. Especially enjoyed the fresh Miang Kham, and the sweet mango with sticky rice. The Esan sausages were also very good. Will come back.

This place is great! My wife got the hot ginger tea and I got the Thai tea. They were both great, only wish the servings were larger. Calamari was pretty good, the grilled squid and roasted duck were amazing. The sauce is pretty spicy! My wife and I love spicy foods and we only got a 1.5 of their spice level.

Thus is a great addition to the area. It has your regular Thai dishes along with some unique ones. The decor is the usual Thai style and place is clean. The only thing is the price is higher than other Thai places and the amount of food is less. Other than that, I’d still recommend this place!
