We came to eat at Chada Street and I have mixed feelings about it. 2.5 stars
TUA SA MUN PRAI (peanuts) $3 VERY GOOD! I would come back to have this peanuts had fried garlic chips.
STREET PAD THAI $7, Boring and forgettable Like another pad Thai you can get any ware.
VEGGIE ROLL W/PORK $6 B this was boring and that meat I it tasted like bland deli turkey meat. The sauce that came with it tasted like it was made with Tang powdered juice drink.
KOI NUA (Raw Steak) This dish is the main reason why I did not give a one star review. It was $17 but worth every penny. One of the best rare preparations I have eaten in a long time. I will be back just to eat this dish.
STICKEY RICE- I don't know how this was because they were OUT. It is pretty bad when you are a Thai place and "run out" of sticky rice. We were ready to just walk out at this point.
MOO MA NOW- Pork with lime. This was decent had some good flavors.
SAI OUA- Spicy sausage- This was decent and had some good spice, it came with a bunch of unneeded garnishes like raw red onion and raw whole garlic cloves.
FRIED CALIMARI- Boring and forgettable like another calamari you can get anyplace
Overall it was trying to be like POK POK in a lot of ways and missed the mark. If it wasn't for the raw beef dish and Peanuts I probably would never bother going back. The service was okay we had to ask for napkins and chopsticks and when we asked for more lettuce to eat with our dishes she brought cabbage. She forgot to put in one of the dishes we ordered. The owner walked around and lorded over everyone and did not bother to come over to talk to us about not having sticky rice. Our drink cups were never empty and they were attentive. I did see people wait at the front of the restraint for a few minutes before being given a table (no hostess). I will be back hopefully it was only new restraint hiccups because this place has the potential to be good. $65 with tip.
