| - There's definitely a reason why Thailand is named "The Land of Smiles" :) What a fun and lively place. Service here is wonderful! I work very close to Soi 4, so you can imagine...I eat lunch here quite often. Our second time to the restaurant, all the servers recognized me and my co-worker the moment we stepped into the restaurant. Since then, we've been treated like family/friends every time we visit!
Pros: Great ambiance, GREAT service, fun lunch and happy hour specials
Cons: I do think their dishes are a tad bit Americanized. I'm South East Asian-American myself and grew up on some pretty authentic Thai dishes. Nonetheless, the dishes are still pretty satisfying.
What I recommend: Definitely get the Pad Kee Mao (it's a Thai basil and pepper stir fry with wide/flat rice noodles + your choice of protein). This is probably their best dish on the menu, and certainly my favorite. If you're familiar with other Thai restaurants around town, the Pad Kee Mao is most similar to the Drunken Noodle dishes in most other Thai shops. If you like a full-flavored dish, make sure to try this one!
I've also had their Pineapple Fried Rice with chicken, their Tom Yum soup, and their Red Curry. All were good, but none popped out like the Pad Kee Mao did.
Can't wait to go back!
P.S. if you work in the same business complex, make sure to let the servers know before you pay! I think you get 5-10% off the bill. :)
