| - The first time I tried Thai Long-an it was a few weeks after they opened. I was excited for the new addition to Melrose restaurant options, especially since so many other dining concepts in the same spot were short-lived.
Definitely, be prepared for spice if you decide to try this place...not for those desiring a mild level of zero. That said, the customer service is friendly and eager to please. Also, if you have an adventurous appetite and want to journey to the spicier side of Thai be sure to order a Thai iced tea to temper the heat.
Parking lot is a bit small, but since I live in the nearby residential area I biked and had no problem. Also, I came right after the end of the lunch special period (11am-3pm) and was the sole guest. It was quiet with Thai music playing in the background at low volume. A perfect respite from the traffic outside.
I usually have the Pad Thai but decided to try the appetizer sampler for more variety as a meal instead. For $14.95 you receive 2 egg rolls, 2 chicken satay, 4 Thai toast, 4 fried dumplings, 4 fried wontons, 3 fried shrimp & 4 crab rangoons!!! That's enough for a meal for two hearty appetites or definitely leftovers!
I can't yet speak to the rest of the menu, but will definitely be back for lunch to sample the entree specials.
