| - I want to like this place SO bad. I love Thai food and there aren't too many around. It's also a small, family own business, but it's just not that great.
I had high expectations walking in. There were a lot of people, the reviews were great, and it was personally recommended to me by picky palates own, Jenny Flake!
It was small and cute, with great decorations, and we were seated quickly
It took a couple of minutes to be given menus and it took almost 10 minutes just to get drinks. We ordered the chicken satay, mild tom kha soup, medium chicken pad thai, medium spicy fried rice, and the pineapple curry.
It took quite a while for the food to come, no to mention, the chicken satay (appetizer) came out last.
Here are my reviews on each food item.
Chicken Satay: Big meaty skewers of chicken, and was very juicy, but SERIOUSLY over salted. I could hardly eat it. This was probably the best of the 4 things we ordered, which is saying something. And while eating my second skewer, I discovered it to be RAW in the middle! Really?
Tom Kha Soup: Utterly disgusting. Ordered it based anothers review on here. It was super sour. And not just lemony, because I love lemongrass and lemon! But this soup was literally inedible and was like a sour warhead.
Pad Thai: It was really very sweet and also a bit sour. We took two bites and had to throw it out.
Fried Rice: Pretty mediocre. Just fried rice, really nothing special at all. Not horrible.
Pineapple curry: Pretty good. Would order the curry if I ever come here again.
We also ordered the coconut custard with sticky rice and it was just okay.
The service was really not great either. It took a while to get the waiters attention.
Really sad to write such a bad review. I think we just got unlucky, but you'll be taking chances coming here. I, for one, will not come back. :(
