"0"^^ . . . "I truly enjoyed my first experience with Chada Thai & Wine!! I really enjoy the different food and flavor profiles from eating eastern cuisine, with Indian and Thai being my favorites. The complexities and layering of flavors and taste are amazing. Chada Thai delivers those things with vibrant balance and lives up to it's well deserved reputation. My GF and I arrived around 5:30 on a Tuesday evening.\n\nSERVICE -\n\nConsidering the day and time, seating was quite available and there was no waiting. We ordered a couple of glasses of wine and reviewed the menu. Our server and staff we always prompt and attentive.\n\nFOOD -\n\nWe opened with a Thai Beef Salad (Nua Nam Tok) and Spicy Lemongrass Soup (Tom Yum Koong). Both were simply amazing and popped with flavors and complexity. I could write a page alone on the wonderful flavor layering with just the appetizers.\n\nWe ordered Pad Thai Hor Kai w/ chicken and the dish was wonderful. The noodles were moist and tender, not limp or soggy. Flavor balance was great with a slight spice and mild/sweeter finish. Great complement to the rest of our meal.\n\nFor entrees we ordered a whole Tilapia dish (Pla Tod Ka Tiem), a crab curry dish (Sen Mee Kang Pou), and a charbroiled pork dish (Moo Khum Waan). All 3 were staggeringly well made. The Tilapia was whole fried, crispy and not greasy at all, and the fish was moist and tender. Crab Curry was LOADED with pieces of real crab meat and has a smooth sweet open with a very spicy finish. The pork had a nice char, but again, the meat was very moist, tender and FULL of flavor.\n\nATMOSPHERE -\n\nChada Thai is a very small restaurant, so the space can feel a bit cramped and claustrophobic. With that in mind, if there are few patrons like there were this evening, the feel is more intimate. There is some bench seating, which for me is such a no no, but enough individual tables that you don't feel like your sitting in your neighbors lap.\n\nAll and all, the food is truly the star here and carries the establishment all the way to a top rating!! THIS PLACE IS A MUST!!"^^ . "5"^^ . "0"^^ . . "2"^^ . "2014-09-27T00:00:00"^^ .
