My wife and I ate here the other day (weekday) for lunch. Although the place looked promising the food and service failed the first impression. Here's why:
Food:
We ordered the chicken curry with rice and the pad thai with chicken and tofu along with a hot and sour soup. The soup was thick and starchy, almost like chinese style sauce. It tasted almost exclusively of ground pepper. No good. The chicken seemed chewy and must have been made in the early morning or even the day before. Previously frozen, no doubt about it. The worst was the pad thai - there was simply nothing authentic on the plate and the dreaded KETCHUP SAUCE killed the already bland dish. There were 1 inch stems of raw green onions and a small amount of peanut granules off to the side next to a jungle of lettuce (!) leafs. What a mess.
Service:
My dish came 5 minutes before my wife's (Restaurant was only 1/3 occupied). No apology for being late. Fail. The next table from ours faired no different.
Ambience:
Nice actually, unlike everything else during our lunch visit.
Price:
Affordable...sort of.
Final thoughts:
Don't waste your time here unless you insist. There are far better picks in the neighborhood. And compared to other Thai places, this one
is average...at best. Reviewed 2010/06/01
