| - Shout out to C F. for mentioning this spot in a Talk thread. A friend and I went today, and it wasn't bad at all! We ordered the green curry with beef ($7.95), and the pad see "lew" with chicken ($6.95). I also indulged in a Thai iced tea ($2.00), which was a nice balance of sweetness and creaminess.
While not the best I have had, I really liked the green curry. At a spice level of 4/5, and with a little bit of added chili powder, it had a nice strong flavor with no sweetness. I wouldn't say that the character of curry itself was all that unique or interesting, but it was a nice, liquidy strong one. With the added ingredients of zucchini and egg plant (which was very yummy), and very tender beef, I found myself going back for seconds!
The pad see lew (like ew?) wasn't my favorite, but it was still good. It was a bit sweeter and saucier (perhaps too much teriyaki) than I prefer. It had sliced carrots, American and Chinese broccoli, cabbage, and even a single piece of bok choy I wished there was more bok choy though. All of the meat and veggies were fresh and nicely prepared. Although definitely edible, I prefer a drier version of this dish, so I wouldn't order this one again.
I can safely give this spot a 3 star review, but it may be better than that. The lunch menu is pretty small, so we ordered off of the dinner menu. It was a pretty simple, standard Thai menu, nothing that was really stood out from other places that I noticed. The prices were just right; pretty much everything was in the $7-10 range for dinner entrees.
