third time's not a charm

by jjp79

This is the third time I ordered pick up from this place. I like to try a few different dishes before I write it off a place completely - especially since this one has quite a few good reviews. The food isn't that great and the prices are pretty high.

Third time we ordered fresh rolls, pud thai, chicken delight and tom yum talay. The total cost was $44 without tip. Not to mention, they messed up my order and gave me the tom yum with seafood. The fresh rolls, which were pretty bland, were filled with mostly rice noodles, some mint, and lettuce, with your choice of shrimp or tofu. I mean, it's already wrapped in rice paper, it doesn't need more rice noodles inside. Not to mention they were quite big, I could barely stand to finish one and the order came in 4. The pad thai was equally tasteless and greasier than it should be. The chicken delight was very soupy. At first I thought it was the tom yum, which actually had some taste, but not one that I'd like in my mouth again.

If you are looking for Thai on top of Queen Anne, I would suggest the Thai Kitchen around the corner. So much better.

• Cons: expensive, bland

Pretty Good

Had take out from this restaurant...first time tasting their food. It was good. However, we paid to have prawns added to our vegetable curry dish. They added 3 prawns for the whole dish. Not worth the price and pretty poor on the restaurants part.
