The food was incredibly delicious, and the service was exceptionally friendly. This is a family-owned establishment, and every dish we tried had a wonderfully fresh taste. We ordered Pad Ped Pla Duke, shrimp rolls, tom yum soup, and pad kee moh with shrimp – all of them were absolutely delightful. We plan to return for more in the future. The cozy, family-oriented atmosphere of this mom-and-pop restaurant made us feel right at home. The added bonus was their extended hours of operation from 10 am to 12 am.

The chicken wings are adequately described as chicken bones. There was absolutely no meat on them at all. They try to get by on the flavoring which is decent but it seems that they are trying to up sell spare parts. The pad thai (for the price) is decent, but the noodles are way overcooked.

Went there with a friend on a Saturday. It was a surprising little gem in an odd location. We were the only customers at that time. The owners were delightful. I had a fish dish that was on the specials menu. My friend is a vegetarian and he found plenty of options. We were both delighted with our meals. I look forward to going back there.

Wanted to give this place a try. We tried and we’re moving on…Ordered fried rice/pad Thai/yellow chicken curry.Fried rice and pad Thai, was very bland. The fried rice has no eggs, no sauce and no flavor. Just rice.The pad Thai was similar. No eggs, no tofu, and nothing more. Just noodles.Like I said, we tried and now it’s time to move on. Good luck with you if you’re planning on ordering here.

The food is good and prices are very reasonable. Its a casual atmosphere, hole in the wall, local spot. Pictured is shrimp pad thai, beef fried rice and mango sticky rice. Its bit off the beaten path but GPS takes you right there. My friends and I usually order food for pick up or have it delivered on an app. The people are very nice!

Delicious, high quality, fresh vegetables, spices, and meats - comfortable, home-style atmosphere, informal living room style with sofas and furnished warehouse feel - beautiful rose garden deck, small outdoor dining area. Quick service and delicious appetizers, Fried Spring Roll and Calamari. Unusual industrial neighborhood and DSP right at the end of the street.

Vulcan Thai truly deserves the highest rating possible because of its friendly owners and its top notch food! I felt like I was in Thailand again being able to practice some Thai with the nice owners who lived in Thailand and recommended their specials. If you are looking for a hidden gem, then this is your place!I ordered Pad Thai with duck, and the Special #2 (fried fish Thai style).

Holy OMG! The Vulcan is STILL here serving up Thai food in the most unlikely places in a ally way with nothing around. I came here 40 years ago and its still here! My fave spicy basil rice is still one the menu.

I could give 0 stars if I had an option. Food was so bad. The curry was watered down and made so badly. I found dog hair/human hair in the curry and the rice. Given the pricing, I would expect some quality. Never ordering from here again.

I love this place. The White Fish platter is amazing and fried to perfection. This is the epitome of a mom and pop shop.
