| - Thanks to Misti Y's review tipping me off to the vegan-friendliness of this place, I have expanded my realm of Las Vegas Thai food!
Important note: do no use google maps to find this place, because you will end up at a XXX bookstore. Which is cool if you need some porn to read over lunch, I guess, but annoying if you're just hungry. The map shown here is correct (why didn't I just trust Yelp??) - it's two doors down from Veggie Delight.
So, yes, they are very accommodating with the vegetarian/vegan requests and happy to oblige. I went at lunch, but ordered off the dinner menu. Now, this may have been a mistake simply because they have an awesome lunch special! You can choose an appetizer (fried tofu, soup, or spring roll, I believe - the fried tofu looked awesome!) and one entree (~$5.45) or two (~$7.25). That's a lot of food for cheap!
We shared a papaya salad, green curry with tofu and vegetables, and chili basil fried rice with tofu and veg. We ordered everything a 7 out of 10 spicy, and it was perfect (I do like pretty spicy food!). First, let me give these folks some love for NOT putting the much-maligned baby corn in any of our food. The mere appearance of those mutants is always a buzzkill when I'm about to dig into a dish. Second, the portions were very generous. I'm a hearty eater as is my friend, and we had enough leftovers for at least one of us to stuff ourselves again. Third, everything was very tasty. Maybe not the best I've ever had, but delicious enough for me to eat til I hurt. Four, the prices! Cheeeeeaaaaaaaap! $6.95 for a huge entree? yes please!
The ambiance was nil, but the service was friendly and fast, and I don't got to a tiny Thai place for lunch because of the ambiance. This place is definitely going in the rotation, and next time hopefully I won't forget to order brown rice!
