Oh my Thai! My first experience with Thai food was wonderful! From the chicken satay appetizer to the green and red curry chicken to the mango sticky rice...I was a fan from the first bite of all of it!
Deejai Thai is simply but attractively decorated and the atmosphere is cozy yet family friendly too, we saw a wide variety of patrons in our visit. I loved the tabletop fresh roses and super cute black and white lanterns!
We started with a chicken satay appetizer with a wonderful peanut sauce and a relish like mix of cucumbers and carrots that I really liked! Chicken was perfectly grilled and the combination of the dips was great!!!
My date ordered us the red (medium hot) and green (medium) curry chicken so I could sample both and I enjoyed them both very much...deciding that the red was indeed my favorite of the two. The jasmine rice was different and flavorful, and a nice balance to the heat of the curry chicken. My nose did get a little runny at first, but oh my goodness it was worth it and the heat was not overpowering, but just right!! The peppers, eggplant, green beans and of course chicken in the red curry sauce were just delicious! The green curry was yummy as well and I really liked the flavor of the veggies in that sauce.
We finished the meal with mango sticky rice, which was delightful and suprising...the combination of warm sticky rice with toasted sesame seeds topped with ice cream and served with mango...wow...I loved it!
Service was very friendly and our glasses never got even close to empty! I would most certainly eat here again! My first visit to Deejai was wonderful!!
