Thought I should do a little review on Sala Thai while enjoying my yummy leftovers from last night. Eating the Lad Na straight from the box, cold! The value blows my mind. The freshest and most authentic Thai in my opinion. And it's BYOB! This is not a seen and be seen kind of place. Go to Roka Akor is you are looking for that vibe. Sala Thai is a little "mom and pop" gem where the focus is on delivering delicious Thai cuisine.
The highlights for me are the shrimp pumpkin curry, egg bomb, and larb. I get an endorphin rush every time I eat those dishes. As of late we order take out from Sala every 2 weeks and are consistently blown away by how good the food tastes. I have only 2 issues.
Their servers need to write down the ordered dishes. Twice now we've had one particular server who has goofed up our order. Don't mind waiting a bit for the kitchen to expedite a forgotten dish but when you have your 6 yr old and infant in tow you should NOT have to wait 45 min for your kid's dish to arrive (everything else on the table was too spicy). They did comp us for the dish but I was glad that wasn't my first time in the restaurant or else we would have been robbed of frequenting the best thai place in the valley.
Second issue. There needs to be some consistency with the heat scale. Sometimes a "4" yields a dish that is only slightly spicy and other times a "4" is off the charts too hot.
