| - On my first visit to Pittsburgh, I asked a lot of people for food recommendations. Thai Place came up a few times, so when we were walking around on Walnut St one weekend, we went here for lunch.
The portions are smaller than I expected, and the prices higher, especially for lunch. But that being said, the food was absolutely excellent.
We shared the tod mun (fishcakes) for appetizer, which were among the best I've ever had. Very good flavor, and not chewy.
I got tofu pad thai (8/10 spiciness), and he got mango chicken curry (1/10 spiciness), and they were both very much to our liking. I usually order an 8 on my first visit, and this was a respectable 8 with spice definitely present but not overwhelming or burning. Next time I would go up to a 9 or 10, though, because I I do like a bit more of a sinus-clearing kick.
Service was good and bathrooms were clean. I'd definitely come back, but maybe for dinner--I don't really like spending $20+ on lunch.
