| - This restaurant isn't really fancy inside, it's basically one open room with a bar at the end. The bar kind of resembles a hut complete with shingles. There are around 120 or so seats and my family and I arrived around 5:30 on a Wednesday for dinner.
It wasn't very busy when we first got here, third table seated. I think by the time we left 11 or so tables were filled.
Now for dinner, we started with the spring rolls ( a little on the small side). If your use to Vietnamese spring rolls you'll be disappointed. Even the dish the fish sauce comes in is the size of a thimble.
Not knowing how big the portion sizes would be, we also ordered a fried rice dish, and Ka re moo. (coconut curry dish with pork). Once again the portion sizes were on the small side.
I thought from reading other reviews, that I may have found my new Thai restaurant without having to travel all the way downtown.
It looks like I'll still be making the trek to the King and I. (Mel the owner is very personable).
In summation, did I say this place had small portions. Yeah it does. Let me break it down for you. Appy 4 small spring rolls(1 order), coconut rice(Bland) for 4, Ka re moo, and an order of fried rice. Oh yeah and one diet Pepsi $55.00. Plus tip. IMHO Thai Express in the malls is just as good although the menu isn't as extensive.
I do have to say the service although slow is friendly and polite enough.
Anyone who says this is the best Thai restaurant in Calgary, hasnt been to the King and I for dinner. I challenge you to eat there then write your review.
