| - I've been going there since they opened a few months ago and was pleased with the quality and service, but either I'm going on a bad day (usually Saturday) or they're experiencing some challenges in the back (and front) of the house.
The food quality, presentation, and serving has not been on par with my earlier experiences. And if you ask for a spice level 3, you can bet your butt it'll be the equivalent of 8 in most places. I don't like to send my food back but I had to when my nose starting running on the first bite and persisted its burn for an hour after I ate!
The Lad na noodles I usually ordered that bathed in a luxurious silken gravy are now being served in a big congealed mass of fried goo. Apparently, "it's our signature dish." And if you order duck fried rice, be prepared to tear through a side of sinewy duck. It makes me wonder what happened.
Perhaps it's not just my experience since on the three most recent visits, the place was nearly empty. Even with few patrons, it took at least five minutes to be greeted another ten to place an order. And there was no refill of my water or checking to see if I needed anything either.
Still, it's in my neck of the woods and when I'm desperate and lazy, I'll pop by but if I really want authentic Thai, I'm going to have to make the trek into the city.
