  • I've "been" to Ruan Thai twice. Well, not really. See, I've walked in their door once and ordered takeout another time. But let's not get stuck up on semantics, shall we? Just know that I can't comment on service as others have. The first time I went, we went to take out their lunch buffet. They were woefully prepared for 4 hungry men to violently burst in their door demanding spring rolls and noodles. So, we had to wait a few minutes before the food came out. A bummer - but fear not, lunch wasn't "Ruan"ed. (Come for the review, stay for the comedy. I'm here all day, folks). Still, it became clear that Ruan had low expectations for themselves and didn't believe they were worthy of a lunch rush. Come on guys, buck up! On the whole I was underwhelmed this first visit. Spring rolls were fresh, the spicy beef was flavorful if not a bit tough and the lemongrass chicken was just okay. Whatever noodles I had were greasy. I didn't think I'd be back, but then Ruan got the chance to redeem themselves when my boss ordered in for our Friday lunch meeting. The take out was much, MUCH better than the in-restaurant buffet experience. We had Pad Thai, that same beef dish, spring rolls, rice, chicken in a pineapple type sauce, a curry dish and one or two more. The Pad Thai was great and much less greasy than whatever noodles I had the time before. THIS was much better, probably because they had a chance to prepare. Is it high on my take out list? Well, no. (See my review of Peking Garden in the NW for a REALLY great place). But as far as Thai goes, is it a passable lunch alternative? SURE! If that doesn't sound like a standing ovation, it's not. But I won't recommend against trying it and finding out for yourself.
