| - My boyfriend and I have enjoyed Mint Thai and Jasmine Thai but decided to try a new place. Bad move.
We ordered Tom Ka Gai soup, Green Curry Chicken, and Cashew Chicken. The soup was pretty good, not the best I've tried but met our requirements. Plenty of chicken and mushrooms. We ordered the chicken dishes at 3 stars - our usual for a new place and we were assured that 4 stars would be Thai Hot. Both chicken dishes were completely bland and tasteless and definitely not 3 stars, I think 1 star would be a stretch. The cashew chicken was oily but otherwise lacking in sauce, bland, and had no vegetables as we have come to expect at other restaurants. The portion was small for $10 but we weren't really interested in eating it anyway. The curry was better, salt helped, but still not spicy. Looking forward to a spicy Thai dinner and was totally disappointed.
To be fair, it was takeout. But I don't think that made any difference. We picked up our order and ate it right away. Bland is just bland whether it sits in my car for 10 minutes on the way home or not. 2 stars for the soup, but I would definitely not try any of the other entrees. If you like spicy food, go somewhere else.
