My wife and I pulled up reviews on "THAI 1st" in the parking lot of the restaurant. My wife put the blinker on for the exit to "Crankyville" because she was hungry. I was skeptical because of the bad reviews, but when my wife is hungry, decisions need to be made quickly. So we jumped!
The waitress we had was an absolute sweetheart, didn't catch her name, but she was of asian descent. We made her aware of my wife being Celiac and she quickly got us a Gluten free menu. We both order the typical PAD THAI, which we love. The food arrived lightning fast (Thank you GOD), and was very tasty. My wife's PAD THAI included large shrimps, which she said was not fishy at all.
The place had a steady flow of customers with heads down and forks in mouths, so I'm not sure of the bad food reviews. Maybe something else on the menu would change disappointed YELPERS minds.
