The food includes the Thai staples from curries, and pad Thai, to some more unusual dishes, like Bangkok duck. On this particular visit, our order was veg spring rolls as an appetizer, and a few Thai ice teas. The entree order included pad Thai (veg, and pork), Bangkok duck, red curry duck, and crispy chicken with rice.
A short wait later the entrees arrived, and we set about the task of destroying the food in front of us. The red curry duck was probably the winner at the table. The Bangkok duck was cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Unfortunately the honey glaze overpowered the dish, making it too sweet, and overpowering any other seasoning in the dish.
Sadly, the crispy chicken too was cooked perfectly, but underseasoned. The pad Thai also left a lot to be desired. Instead of a dish with the texture of bean sprouts and peanuts with spice to it, these noodles had a lot of sauce - unexpectedly sweet sauce.

The consensus was that all in all the food was under seasoned, even just adding salt would definitely have helped.
We have been here before, and the food was good (which is why we went back), and chances are we will probably give it one more try.
Bottom Line:
Price - $$

I have eaten there once as well, and the food was pretty good even though they somehow couldn’t find our reservation. Too bad your recent experience wasn't that great.
ReplyDeleteThey also have a fully vegetarian restaurant, where I have yet to go.
