  • This has to be the most we've ever paid for Thai that wasn't authentic, nor good. As a San Diegan, I'm spoiled with all the Thai restaurants we have. It's easy to get great, hole-in-the-wall Thai food that tastes amazing. Although I looked at the Yelp page before visiting, I didn't think about the fact that maybe Arizona folks don't know what authentic Thai food tastes like. Besides the fact that much of the usual noodle and curry dishes are just scratching the surface, even these 'basic' dishes had the entirely wrong taste profiles and seemed prepped in the wrong way. On that note - of prepping the food in the wrong way - we're pretty sure that the chicken in my dish and the beef in my boyfriend's dish were both cooked ahead of time and then overcooked with the ingredients of the dishes. The meat was bland. I bet if I were to peek into the kitchen, we'd see pre-cooked proteins sitting and waiting to be tossed into the noodle or curry dishes. My boyfriend's pad see ew was kind of dry. It was a big portion, but just didn't pack the taste we're used to with pad see ew anywhere else. He asked for a 2, which out of a 5 should've been a little spicier than it was. My pad Thai had chicken, shrimp, and tofu. The chicken was overcooked, though I liked the shrimp and the tofu. The taste was very off; I couldn't figure out what they must have put in the sauce to make it taste the way it did. It tasted closer to tomato sauce with fish sauce than anything else. I ventured the guess that maybe they're just using packets from a non-Asian store, and my boyfriend thought maybe I could be right. However, I'm giving the place 2 stars because the service was good, the drink list was varied, and the atmosphere was nice. The gal at the front was nice and I could tell that the employees care about giving their customers a good experience. But it just wasn't authentic, and we were really bummed to pay $15 per dish - easily $4-6 more expensive per dish than a more authentic place - plus drinks for something that so badly missed the mark.
