| - What a pleasant surprise. Went there on a rainy Saturday afternoon in September and got a nice table right by the windows where we could people watch. It was one of our Saturday lunches out without the kids. Both my wife and I were pleasantly surprised by this establishment. Very nice decor, clean, good attentive service, excellent food and decent prices.
Started off with the Summer rolls (2) with House Special Sauce which is basically Hoison Sauce with crushed peanuts in it. Very fresh, very nicely presented on a square white plate, and very delicious. you could tell it was just hand rolled seconds before we got it. My wife tried the Vegetable spring roll, which were deep fried and served with sweet and sour sauce. Also very good, but I preferred the fresh summer roll in rice paper - trying to stay away from fried. My wife also tried the Tom Yum soup which she initially thought was too tomato-based in its broth, but it grew on her to the point by the time she finished it, she said she did like it quite a bit. It was a fitting choice for a wet and cold afternoon.
For the main course I had the Country Pad Thai, which was excellent, a very generous portion (especially for lunch) with about 2 ounces of chicken and 3 shrimp. Very flavorful, and had a little bit more of a kick than the regular Pad Thai. My wife had the Hamachi Sashimi which was fresh and tasty.
Definitely would recommend this restaurant and we'll be back to try other things.
