e-saan thai street food

I’ve never tried the food from here before, and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered teriyaki chicken with rice and veggies and some pork egg rolls, then we met up with friends at Pensacola Bay Brewery to eat at the outside tables, have a good beer and listen to some live music. The meal was so good I didn’t want to get full! It was just the right temperature, everything seemed very fresh, the egg rolls were crispy and the dipping sauce was delicious! Glad I had leftovers. I played tennis Saturday morning, and kept thinking about my food from ESaan when I got home. Great job, guys!

I'm a little underwhelmed. Admittedly, I am not an expert on Thai Street food. That being said, I have eaten Thai food at several restaurants and have come to expect some flavor in the various dishes I've ordered. The cashier recommended the Gai Yang, which was described as having a tangy dipping sauce. I received and tasted my food, and it was strikingly bland. I asked about the apparently missing sauce and the response I received was confused. I was told that even though the menu said it came with the sauce, it was actually for the wings, not my menu item. I got the sauce anyway, and it really didn't do much to improve the flavor.
