| - I brought a family of 9, and though it was a long 45-minute wait, I found the hostess and staff here to be very accommodating in terms of trying to seat us as quickly and close together as possible.
The place is a hip little place that's got very nice decor, interesting choice in music, and a low rumble from the amount of people that was packed into the place while I was there. It seems like it's a very popular place--so much so that I never saw a shortage of politely impatient people starting down those that were lucky enough to have gotten a table. That's definitely something to keep in mind. If your stomach feels like it's about to start eating itself....I think it's best to save this place for another day.
If you're curious about the food, then boy were we your perfect guinea pig family! We got:
Crispy Rice Salad--great texture (crispy as promised), lots of strong flavors, a little tart (which I loved, but my mom didn't exactly like)
Soup of the Day (Tom Yum)--predominant sour flavor (which I loved, but my mom--again--didn't like as much), herbacious, shrimp was cooked well, and perfectly seasoned.
Bangkok-Style Pad Thai (pork)--the better of the two pad thai offerings. I definitely think you should get this with shrimp, though, after having shrimp in the other pad thai. It just fits so much better.
Three Flavours Pad Thai (shrimp)--seemed just ok compared to the bangkok-style pad thai. It's not a bad dish, though. The waitress also said that as a Thai person, she preferred Bangkok-style
Kua Gling (beef)--very strong flavors, the curry is punchy and exactly what you'd expect. The kaffir lime flavor made it very complex as a dish as it provided just enough acidity.
Khao Soi (chicken)--kinda too much of the salty-sweet, to be honest, but was creamy and rich. If it wasn't so sweet and so salty, I could've eaten much more. The contrast between the crunchy and
Massaman Curry--pretty salty without the rice, but goes a long way when you also get rice. I don't know what the arrangement for the rice was (aka whether or not it was included), but my family decided to get it and it was great with it.
The total averaged out to be about $16/person. If we had each gotten our own dish, it would've been more expensive but also unnecessary. We got 7 dishes--one being a small bowl of soup and another being an appetizer--and were fine. Plus, I think if we had gotten one dish each we would've starved waiting for our food. Overall, I would return to this place, but not with a large group.
