| - I wandered into this place for lunch one day looking for authentic Thai food. When I first walked in, I didn't have a good feeling. There were no customers in either side of the restaurant (there are 2 entrances to this place).
I decided to give it a try since the lunch specials caught my eye. After all, for a $6.00 lunch, I didn't have high expectations. However, I was pleasantly surprised once my lunch arrived. I chose the sweet/ spicy basil chicken lunch special with steamed rice and an eggroll. The chicken was breaded (think orange chicken from Panda Express) , with onions, peppers and basil. The sauce was good, but could have used a bit more heat.
Full disclaimer-- I love Basil. However, the basil in this dish was crispy. I think they pan fried the basil, or used a dry spice -which was a mistake. The basil lost it's flavor and the dish suffered because of it. Also, the eggroll was mushy and disgusting.
On the bright side, the service was really good. But then again- I was the only customer in the joint.
