| - This is a pretty popular Asian restaurant. I'm not sure what they identify as, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai?? I guess one of those all in ones that I'm not so much a fan of, because they do everything but nothing particularly well, at least in my opinion.
I hate going here but my family loves it, so I find myself here on birthdays and other special occasions. No matter how many times I come here, I can't find anything that I truly like. I mean I'll eat the food, but none of the dishes make me think when I'm at home, "let's go to Siam, I'm craving _______". Even when I'm there and ordering, nothing on the menu jumps out at me and I end up taking forever to make a decision. Show me a dish that is good there and I'll show you a nearby restaurant that does it better.
It's just unspectacularly average.
I guess if I had to highlight something it would be the water cress soup. And the service. Almost always awesome and friendly. Except this one kid that gave me hard time for ordering sesame chicken. "Come on, you're Asian, don't order the American stuff". Like dude, I've had the other stuff and I wasn't a fan. Also, you could eat gourmet burgers every day and sometimes you still just want to throw shame aside and have a McDouble. Let me have my sesame chicken dammit.
