| - First, the location is next to Groomingdale's in the shopping center on the Northwest corner of Cheyenne and Rainbow, behind Voodoo wings. They don't have a marquee sign, only a sign in the window, so you may pass it at first without noticing it.
The food here, was simply divine.
This isn't spruced up food that you'll find in any Thai places on the strip, this is more of a home-cooked dining experience, and it is wonderful. We had the Pad Thai, Pork Belly with Chinese Broccoli, and the Chicken Katsu with Thai curry. All the dishes are made to order (unlike some Asian cafes), so you're able to specify the level of spice for each dish (which was great for my mother who hates spiciness).
The owner's of the restaurant recently moved here from Hawaii, so there are several more Hawaiian inspired dishes on the menu than you'll find at other Thai cafes. The owner was very personable and very welcoming into the establishment and we enjoyed our conversation with him as we ate our dinner.
The dessert. For dessert we had their seasonal mango with sticky rice. The owner explained to us that it's seasonal, because they're very choosy with the kinds of mango that they are willing to serve to their customers. This kind of particularity showed, as this dish was delicious. In Las Vegas, most Thai dining experiences are usually compared to Lotus of Siam as the benchmark for good Thai food, and having had both, the mango with sticky rice at Plumeria was hands down the better of the two.
I, for one, am very happy that this restaurant is now open in the NW area of Vegas and plan to return many more times to try the rest of their menu.
