After discovering that I have celiac disease, my favorite pastime changed drastically, to say the least. When I told the server at CoCo Thai, she made no fuss about it and the chef even came out and talked to me! I wasn't expecting very much, seeing as most gluten free substitutions are the equivalent of the Wall- Mart variety of a five star restaurant. What I received, though, was one of the most delicious meals I've ever had. This stuff is good. And not just gluten free good. Good, for real. I felt like the chef took my disease and turned it into a challenge... only he does this for every dish. My date's dinner may have been better than mine! Curries are well rounded, with thoughtful touches such as the addition of pineapple to Massaman. Don't hesitate to check out the Trio- panang, green and massaman curries in a three sectioned dish. The service is impeccable and I can't believe it doesn't cost more. I've been twice now, and each time amazed at the amount of beautifully prepared food for the price. Go. Check it out. See if it isn't instantly your new favorite Thai place.
Pros: The simple decor leaves the focus on the amazing food. Did I mention the food? It is DELICIOUS!
Cons: It's in a strip mall, which isn't very impressing to the eye. This may keep masses from finding it. Wait. That may be a good thing...
