I Love Pad Thai

First visit since they opened this location. Picked up yellow curry with chicken, spice level 3, to go.

I noticed that they keep the dinning room a little warm. Almost a bit uncomfortable.

Anyway... The yellow curry was pretty good but, compared to some other Thai places, I felt the serving size was pretty small for the price. At $11, I got about 2/3 of what I get elsewhere. The one thing I didn't care for was the large chunks of potato. Just too big.

Not badly priced. Service was good. Spring rolls were good. I ordered Pad Thai with shrimp and my son ordered Drunken Noodles with beef. Both dishes were good but you get a choice of spice level between 1-10. My son got a 6 and I got a 5. I usually like spicy and have an okay tolerance or so I thought. We couldn't eat a lot of it as it was more like a level 10. We want to go back and do maybe a level 1 or 2 next time.

Stopped by for lunch at the 122nd and L. Location. The staff was amazing, attentive and helpful. The restaurant was clean and menus were well put together. The food was amazing. Best Pad Thai I have eaten. Will definitely be back.

Sampler was different, had good and various flavors, and came out quickly.
Entree (see below) lacked that Thai flavor and wasn’t spiced as expected. Staff was very efficient, polite, and pleasant.

Had the Sampler, Sweet Chili sauce was provided and definitely needed, but the sampling was pretty good.

Ordered combination Thai Basil Fried Rice at level 9 (tails off). I was thinking about the Drunken Seafood Mix Fried Rice but she couldn’t remember what was in it.

They were surprised to receive an order for a 9/10 spicing.

Main entree came out at about the right time.
So, the rice was fairly bland, and there was almost no indication that any spices had been used in it. The proteins tasted fine and provided the best contribution to the flavor. I had to add some of the sweet chili sauce to the rice to finish it. It wasn’t terrible, but if you’ve been to the place down the way on Center, you’ll probably only come here once.

Needless to say, next time I’m getting back right at 8, I’ll call ahead to the other place. If you haven’t been there, I recommend it to you now. Thanks for reading.
