My husband and I have been talking about going to Sala Thai for quite a while now and tonight we finally did. The decor is quirky, adorable and not too noisy. The service was an oonsy bit slow (hence the 4 stars rather than 5), but charming & lovely all at the same time so it balanced out.
The food was seriously kick-ass, all around flavorful & perfectly done. We started by sharing the pork pot stickers and a spring roll. The pot stickers were crunchy, but not at all greasy, filled with delicious pork and just the right amount of spices. The spring roll was fresh, clean and crisp with a myriad of textures/flavors. We enjoyed both very much.
For entrees, I had the Panang Peek Gai and my husband had Panang with beef. Both were right on point and we fully plan on ordering them again - hopefully very, very soon. The Panang Peek Gai consists of a spicy peanut sauce served over chicken wings stuffed with pork & glass noodle which have been fried to perfection. I LOVED it! So fantastic! My husband's Panang with beef was decadent, just the right amount of heat blended with sweet notes and richness. The beef was tender and every flavor melded together perfectly with after hints of Thai basil. Our server was charming and she was always available for whatever we needed. Great job, Sala Thai! We will be back very soon!!!
