I promised that if we finally had dinner here vs lunch and it was good I'd update to 4 stars.
Well we went here last night after drinks at HH and I have to say I was very happy with the results.
We had pad Thai and drunken noodles. We asked for both to be gluten free which pad Thai normally should be but drunken noodles often aren't. They said that was no problem.
The pad Thai was the best of the four Squirrel Hill Thai joints in my opinion. I've had the other three in the past month to compare and here's my take on the pad Thai here compared to the others:
1) it's saucier in a good way
2) the noodles are consistent and cooked well, not too chewy and not falling apart
3) the bean sprouts were cooked in not raw on top
4) there was ample peanut
5) the portion was large
The other Thai places miss one or two of those items above.
The drunken noodle was very good as well. And I can confirm that I have reason to believe they really were GF.
I've made my decision, for Thai in SQHill it's gonna be Bangkok Balcony Thai!
