| - I had been hearing about this restaurant for some time, so we decided to finally come for dinner. When we walked in, we were hit by a wall of freezing cold air. This place was absolutely bone chilling on a cold October night! Nonetheless, we decided we still wanted to give Archi's a try, so the host seated us.
The servers didn't seem to establish who our designated server was, so two of them came to ask for our drink order within seconds of one another. We weren't ready to order our meals so both servers came by twice to ask if we were ready, and when we asked for a few more minutes, they both came back literally a minute later. I can appreciate the attentiveness, but to be approached four times for our order in less than three minutes was pretty excessive and annoying.
When our waitress delivered our drinks, my Thai tea came with the straw wrapper submerged in the drink. Gross! We ordered the Panang Curry and the Country Curry. When the food came out, we saw that they mixed up our orders. We asked for steam tofu in the Panang Curry and fried tofu in the Country Curry, but they did the opposite. Not such a huge deal though. We didn't like the Country Curry at all, so we didn't finish it. The Panang Curry, however, was quite delicious.
Unfortunately, we won't be visiting Archi's again. There are other Thai restaurants in the neighborhood that serve the same, if not better, dishes for a lower price. We weren't fans of the ambiance or the uncomfortably cold temperature inside. Next!
