"I have to admit I generally do rely on Yelp to determine if I'm going to try a new place but given I've tried this place prior to Yelping and noticed the bad reviews, I had to comment.\nMy husband and I ordered take out and had 3 dishes. Standard pad thai, a spicy ground chicken basil dish, and a large flat rice noodle dish (forgot names) - never remember. We have eaten at multiple different thai places in town and CA and AZ. \nOf course ratings on food are always subjective but I dont think their food is a 1 or 2. All 3 of the dishes we ordered were great. I would have to say better than Pin Kaow, which is the local favorite. \n\nWe used to be regulars at PK on S. Eastern because of their superb service, so it's not to say we didn't like the place. \n\nThe pad thai noodles were cooked perfectly, the sauce had enough tang and sweetness and not mushy and flavorless like PK. The ground chicken basil dish was about the same as PK and the other flat rice noodle dish was good. \nYes, the ambience is very much lacking given it is a very small cafe but for the main purpose of getting take out, it is great for us given we dont have to drive further down from home with our infant.\n\nNow, it's not to say I'm mainly driven by the convenience factor on why I rated them so high. I like eating out and would mainly judge a place by the food preparation and quality along with the overall experience. \n\nI really like the fact that we have a pretty good Thai place in the area and hope other ethnic foods will come. Seems we lack a little diversity closer to Anthem and I dont mean your standard Robertos, Pei Wei, or for Christ Sake, another sushi place!\n\nOf course I would have to try other dishes to see if perhaps I may come across the same issues as others but for now, we are going back for more!"^^ .
