| - I hit this place up every March when I am in town for March Madness. This review is definitely overdue.
Thai Pepper is tucked in a little strip mall near SLS and Westgate. I consider it a fairly easy walk from those places, but with the Vegas heat and those long Vegas city blocks you may not agree.
Anyway, the bottom line here is that the food is really god damn good. Their lunch special is an outrageously good value for what you get, and it isn't just sugary globs of fried meat like with most Asian lunch specials. Here they bring you an entree, soup, salad, rice, and an egg roll or potsticker for 5.95. At a casino that's gonna cost you 30 bucks and it wouldn't taste half as good as here.
The sauces they use have the perfect balance of salty, spicy, and sweet. There are lots of crisp fresh veggies mixed in. To me that's what good Thai food is all about.
Now step away from the slot machine or craps table, leave the casino for once, and go eat here, will ya?
