Cheap thai food next to a shady massage parlor? check..
Small restaurant with tables from the 1980's? check
Pad thai, medium spicy ($7) - as good as it comes.
I've never had bad pad thai so I'm assuming it's really had to mess up. I loved the beef pad thai, loved the price, and the food comes out within 5-8 minutes. Everything is extremely prompt and the service was friendly.
Fresh spring rolls are also a good try.. comes with shrimp and veggies and an awesome sauce. ($5)
This place doesn't have much seating, so it can fill up quickly and you can end up waiting for awhile, so it's always a good idea to have a back up plan.
