There were a few things that caught my eye about this place - the name, the bright orange exterior and the futuristic interior all pulled me in. I love asian food and was eager to try another noodle joint out! However, I can't say that this is my favorite noodle joint in Pittsburgh and this is why.
While many items on the menu caught my eye (i.e. duck/pork belly sliders, pineapple fried rice and the thai basil chicken), I had to get the thai style flat noodle with shrimp. It's a noodle place and it only made sense to try something that resides in the name of the restaurant, right? Thai dishes are typically spicy on their own, but you can add some extra kick with their spice level of 1-5. I wanted to give mine a spice level of 2, but our waitress said she would just bring out extra sauce if it wasn't spicy enough for me. When my dish came out, I was very satisfied with the amount of noodles and the size of the shrimp, but once I took my first bite I became let down. The noodles were very doughy/overcooked and the dish was not spicy. Our waitress brought out a mixture of chili paste/sriracha to turn up the heat and it did help! I also ordered a mango smoothie bubble tea and this was probably the best bubble tea I have had in Pittsburgh.
Although the noodles left me disappointed, I will still be back to try the pork belly/duck sliders and pineapple fried rice!
