| - awful. came here on the cold day because we wanted to grab something that was close to campus. Since I'm a fan of sushi inbox next door, thought i would give Thaiphon a chance (since im a huge fan of thai food). Upon entering, the price seemed to be pretty full with alot of business people and students, so i figured that it couldnt be very bad. EXCEPT, i was WRONG.
My friends ordered the general tao, chicken pad thai and i had the flat rice noodles with beef. What kind of thai place has general tao on their menu ? The place was clearly owned by chinese people ( no offense cuz i love my chinese people) but the food was just AWFUL. Even the general tao, it was soaked in sauce but the chicken was not crispy at all. The general tao came with rice, a sad little salad on the side (completely bland) and crap tons of sauce with very little chicken pieces. I've had better general tao chicken at thai express. The chicken pad thai was not any better, the noodles were soggy and drenched in sauce with less than 5 pieces of chicken. My rice noodles with beef was the best of the bunch, but not by much. It was very blend and mediocre. again, the pad see ew at Thai Express was way better.
Thaiphon, if you're going to serve chinese food, you might as well do the good job at serving chinese food.
& oh and the price, ranges between $10-15/dish. not horrible but the quality of the food definitely doesn't measure up.
