I think it's actually the best Thai food in the city! The drunken noodle is fantastic and their "secret fried rice" is amazingly delicious -- crave it on a regular basis!

Excellent fried chicken! The larb is also super tasty and full of flavorful spices. Beware of their super-spicy dishes. When they say spicy - it's really spicy!
Maketto is unique in that in addition to being a restaurant, they're also a shop with lots of neat finds.

The bar is above Ben's Chili Bowl and owned by them, but they don't share a menu. They have a decent happy hour 5-7.
