| - This Thai Express location probably had one of the better cooks out of several locations I've been to. Since I work nearby, the location is pretty convenient and I usually find myself frequenting here a lot when I crave fast takeout. They definitely live up to their EXPRESS name.
My go-to order is the Chicken Pad Thai, ordered spicy or extra spicy. If you really want a kick, get the extra spicy - the regular spicy is either hit or miss. Noodles, meat and veg are consistently cooked well here.
Other dishes I've had include the Beef Pad Sew, and the General Thai. I don't really stray away from the Pad Thai too often though.
The limes here need to be a bit more on the fresher side however. I always find them to be too dry that when I squeeze them out, only a couple drops come out.
Also, the price tends to be a bit higher than other locations. Pad Thai here is $11.05, as opposed to $10.75-ish.
---- UPDATE ----
Went last night and opted for the Spicy Beef Pad See Ew, just for a change. Eating there on a somewhat regular basis, you notice a couple nuances between the cooks.
The beef from the Pad See Ew during lunch hour is a bit on the chewier side, perhaps from cooking too long, but tonight's was a lot more tender. I hate using this word, but I can only describe it as being more "moist" than its lunch counterpart.
Could be a fluke, could be a new preference in cooks at this Thai Express location.
My rating still stands at 4 stars.
