Although the inside may seem too "dated" for some, I absolutely loved my first time dining at this restaurant on Mother's Day with my family! It is Zagat rated as the best thai in the area as well, so that speaks for itself.\r
The menu was very authentic, with traditional thai dishes. The appetizers were unbelievably fresh. The grilled calamari was chunks of perfectly tender squid with light grill marks and the most delicious smoky flavor. The mixed vegetable soup was like a magical thai elixir with fresh crisp veggies floating in a crystal clear broth.\r
I had the chicken with mixed vegetables for my entree, and it was an enormous portion served piping hot with fresh strips of chicken, white rice, and an authentic thai medley of crisp vegetables in a light flavorful brown sauce. It was absolute heaven! The plates are intricately decorated as well with fresh carrot shavings and fresh wild orchids. I also had a taste of my dad's lamb chops which were super tender, moist, and cooked to perfection as well!\r
Just a note that all the dishes served here and even soups can be spiced and altered to your preference. The thai medium is spicy, and I absolutely love super spicy & hot foods and I found the medium spice to be the perfect balance of heat for me. Anything above medium and it will start to get unbearably hot and too spicy even for someone like me.\r
This place gets a soaring A+++ in my book! It can be pricey, but just remember that the portions are very large and generous, and its worth paying for a good, fresh, authentic thai dish. The service was perfect as well.
