| - The name of this restaurant is a little deceiving... although they do have Thai food, it is not traditional Thai food and they do serve other Asian food as well. They are very upfront about this, i.e. the waiter explained it all before I ordered... but I didn't know until after I had sat down.
When going to Thai restaurants for the first time, I usually use pad thai as my yardstick to measure quality. Although the pad thai was quite good, it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. The regular pad thai seemed to be cooked in a curry sauce, and I could have used it a little spicier... which is my own fault, as I didn't realize that I hadn't been asked how spicy I wanted my dish until it was sitting in front of me (another thing I thought odd for a Thai place).
I would go back... but I'm going to to do it when I'm in the mood for "Asian" food as opposed to "Thai." There were definitely other things on the menu that seemed enticing.
As to the decorum, service and price, Thaifoon definitely has the "upscale" feel one would expect for the neighborhood in which it is located. The one thing I feel is worth noting is the waterfall behind the bar that is, for lack of better adjectives, "really cool."
EDIT: In retrospect, no surprise this place went the way of the dodo.
