| - Thai food that delivers? Yes, please! Granted, it's not as good as Thai Spices, but it's still very passable.
It was one of those nights where there's no food in the house, and you're already in your comfy clothes, and you don't feel like getting dressed again to go out. So I needed to find something that delivered. I turned to my trusty Yelpers to see what was recommended. This place came up. It was Thai, it had a good rating and it delivered. Ok, let's give it a shot.
I ordered chicken and oyster sauce and pork Thai fried rice.
The good: When the guy told me it would be here in 10-15 minutes, I chuckled, but it really was delivered within 15 minutes! A major plus, compared to the 45-50 minutes one usually gets quoted for delivery times. The food was good. Not great, but good. The portions were a good size, especially the fried rice.
The Not So Good: The chicken and oyster sauce could have had more flavour. This was one of my staples when I was living in Bangkok, so I know what it COULD taste like. It was pretty much just chicken and broccoli, and I was hoping for a little more. The $20 minimum for delivery, plus a $2 delivery charge is a little much. It basically forces you to order at least two entrees, even if you're just ordering for one person.
The menu items are a little pricey. We're talking $10 for fried rice, $9 for my chicken and oyster sauce. I don't mind paying if the food is worth it, but I'm still going with Thai Spices as the best Thai in town.
But, if you've got a hankering for Thai food and don't want to go out, then I'd totally recommend this place.
