Jai Thai

I'm asian, I've had thai food in New York, San Fran, Seattle, LA, Vancouver and I love thai food. I'll try to keep this review as informative as possible.

The restaurant takes red chili pepper flakes that you put on pizza (think the little red pepper packs you get at costco) and puts it on your dish depending on the # of stars you order. So why ask how hot you want it if you aren't going to cook it any spicier? Just leave the pepper flakes on the table for me to sprinkle on.

The pad see eew was soggy (wok not hot enough syndrome), lacking the delicious browning you get when the noodles are cooked right. Because it was so soggy, the eggs also turned into a soggy used coffee grind texture instead of the chunks of eggs that are fried with the pad see ew flavors.

Our massaman curry had a total of 3 small pieces of beef. Maybe I'm being too picky about the above observations, but you have to at least serve enough food right???!!! My girlfriend's excuse for the lack of quantity was that I shouldn't eat so much anyway. But being a devotee to pad see ew, she too was highly disappointed.

The food was satisfactory-good. The restaurant needs some serious layout updating (the seats all are covered in some plastic thing to protect the cloth covers and many of the booth seats are ripped in many spots). Other than layout issues, it was an okay place to eat.

PROS: Good service
CONS: Stained carpet, ripped seats
