| - I hate writing bad reviews on places that seem so dedicated but the dedication did not shine through in our food...not even a little.
Our order- take out, cost was $23 and change.
One order of # 21 - Green Papaya Salad - here is the explanation from their menu "Shredded, fresh green papaya with garlic, tomato, green bean, grilled shrimps
and lime juice, topped with peanut."
Yeah, there was papaya. Four green beans and two under-cooked almost raw, definitely NOT grilled (boiled or just thawed out?) shrimps that were small one biters at that and inedible. I also got one piece of lettuce on the side that was not fresh....super bummer. Dish was minute, dressing/ juice was very under-seasoned and literally flavorless except for the heat since I ordered it a #3 heat out of 5. A complete waste of a meal.
One order of #56 - Masaman Curry - This curry should contain among other things to make up such wonderful full flavors, turmeric, fish sauce, tamarind, peanuts, coconut milk, lemongrass...it is SUPPOSED to be VERY rich in flavor. Well this one fell short, very short, no flavor, no kick ordered #3 spicy, no heat...nothing. I would love to say forgetful but we will always remember it as one of the worst Masaman curries to date.
Also, even though girl who took our order and helped me when I came to pick it up was super friendly, not having any utensils and not one napkin in ToGo bag is frustrating.
Too many Thai places, too many excellent Thai places to ever think about returning. Sorry 5 R Cha, we tried, won't be trying again :(
