We have no Thai restaurants in this neighborhood, so this was a welcome
addition. They deliver exactly what they say they do--I really can't find much fault with it. It is advertised as "authentic" Thai
food, but I would say it is more Asian Fusion than "pure" Thai. The
lemongrass and coconut milk are there, but only in a couple of dishes.
I
had probably the most "Americanized" one--the General Thai chicken.
Overall I was pretty impressed. The batter on the chicken was crisp
and flavorful, and the sauce had great flavor. I was afraid the
pineapple would be overwhelming, but it wasn't--it was just right. I
got it with an Imperial roll and Thai tea. The Imperial roll is a fried
spring roll with meat, and it was very tasty. Both fried items (the
chicken and the roll) were done perfectly. The Thai tea reminded me of a
chai latte at Starbucks, in a good way.
The interior is very
spare, just a few tables with plastic furniture. They have the Pepsi
Spire, the Pepsi equivalent of the Freestyle machine--I didn't use it
this time, but it appeared to be in working order. Some customers were
confused by its menu. The bathroom was clean and ready. Several friends have been there and loved it--the Pad See Ew (wide rice noodles) dish comes recommended. It's a unique
choice in the neighborhood, and I would have to say it's my favorite
"Thai" restaurant so far.
