When I walked in at noon on Wednesday 6/8 to place a to-go order and there wasn't a single customer seated, that should've been the clue to turn around and skeedaddle. But I was really in the mood for Thai food and decided to give this place a shot - they had only been open four months.
The satay chicken skewer appetizer was tough and tasteless, devoid of any hint of marinade. Even the peanut sauce couldn't save it. The chicken potstickers were gummy and tasteless too.
I got Pad Thai for my girlfriend and she called it a "gut-bomb." The dish featured a big ball of paste-like noodles that stuck together so tightly you had to cut it with a sharp knife. The were only 5-6 small pieces of chicken, very few green onions and sprouts, almost no crushed peanuts, no egg, and a few slivers of carrots. Basically, no resemblance to any of the pad thai concoctions I've had over the years.
My Pa-Nang Curry was ordered extra spicy yet was as bland as applesauce. The best part of the meal was the brown rice which I paid $2,00 extra for.
The bill came to $32 and some change and I felt really ripped off. Just a real bad experience here. No wonder not a single other customer visited the joint during the 15 minutes I waited for my to-go order smack dab in the middle of lunch hour.
