| - My friend and I decided to try this place yesterday evening, as we have been trying different types of cuisine available in the junction and both thought "hey, why not Thai?"
The inner décor is not fancy and very homelike. On a weekday evening, the restaurant was relatively empty but this allowed for prompt service and a relaxed atmosphere. They do appear to have a problem with their stereo as all evening their music was skipping and at times it was relatively distracting.
My friend and I decided to order a combo for two, as it allowed us to try four different menu options at a reasonable $12/person. Each dish was flavourful and very mild for my timid tastebuds. Of the four, the two dishes that really stood out was their chicken fried rice, which had loads of fresh vegetables and juicy white meat, and their mango salad which had the perfect blend of sweetness which a tiny touch of heat. The other two dishes: spring rolls and the cashew chicken were not terrible by any means, they just didn't stand out in my opinion. Their drink menu offers both North American and Thailand favorites.
Servers were friendly and prompt. Atmosphere was relaxing. It provided a very homelike environment especially with staff sitting in another room skyping with friends on a laptop. After our meal, we were looking at the articles posted in their window when two strangers past by recommending the food, especially the Pad Thai (which would have been my other choice had we not sprung for the combo).
All in all, this place appears to be authentic in every regard. I would definitely recommend trying this place by either dining in or getting take out. It will definitely be on my radar next time I'm looking for a place to dine in the junction.
