| - Pusadee's Garden was good, but my experience here didn't match the hype. The service started out incredibly slow when the restaurant wasn't even half-filled.
My curry dish came out in a tall square bowl, which looked interesting, but compromised on functionality. Once I had eaten a sufficient amount, the remaining chunks of meat and veggies were completely submerged in the sauce, leaving me groping around with chopsticks hoping to find purchase on some chicken. It was tasty enough, but nothing above and beyond other Pittsburgh Thai places (which admittedly set an unusually high standard).
I tried a rice noodle and chicken dish one of my companions ordered as well. The chicken was phenomenal, but the noodles, rather than being spicy-sweet, were just overly and cloyingly sweet.
Roll all of that up in mid-level prices which aren't exactly a bargain, and it doesn't make my "best Thai in Pittsburgh" list, though it might be "best Thai in Lawrenceville."
