| - I love this place. Nicky's will always be my favorite Thai in Pittsburgh, both locations equally great, but Thai Me Up is all of a 5 minute drive from my house on the Southside, and I love both dining in (cool atmosphere,) or take out, which I personally do more often.
When I have dined in, they have had issues with being understaffed, one server clearly overwhelmed with an unusually busy Tuesday night, but as for the food, I've tried many dishes and they are delicious.
Standouts, their steamed dumplings are my favorite appetizer, done so well. their lemongrass soup with mushrooms is fantastic (lots of shrooms,) and if you ask for it to be spicy, spicy you will receive.
As for entrees, some of my favorites are the Spicy Sweet and Sour, with chicken and Tofu, both proteins are always prepared perfectly, and the S&S sauce is great... Eggplant and Basil with spicy ginger sauce, and the old Thai stand by, Pad Thai is certainly on par with Nicky's.
