| - I met family here for dinner and was generally underwhelmed. Our party of five was seated quickly as we arrived on the earlier side of dinner. The restaurant did fill up near the end of our meal though so consider dining early to avoid the wait.
We were asked for drink orders quickly, but it took some time for the drinks to arrive and actually place the order. I ordered a beer, but it never came. By the time the sever remembered I was nearly finished with dinner so I didn't want it. Luckily, she remembered to remove it from the bill.
We split an appetizer of mi krop crispy noodles. This is a fun dish when it is prepared well - crispy, sweet from tamarind, and complimented by chicken, tofu, or other protein. Unfortunately, this version was dry and the little pieces of chicken were hard and basically inedible.
For the main course, my family ordered a mix of noodle, curry, and stir fried dishes. The food seemed to arrive as ready, which is good for temperature but one member of our party had to wait while others started. My mom ordered the pad thai and said it was really dry and extremely spicy for a medium order. She actually didn't eat very much, which was a bummer as I love nothing more than to treat my mom to a fantastic dinner. My sister was about half way through her panang curry when she found a hair in her meal. She was pretty grossed out!
The stir fry dishes were fine. Nothing great or horrible, except everyone seemed to find them very salty.
