My wife had been here before and she wanted me to experience this restaurant. We finally had the opportunity to go today.We arrived at 11:15 and we were seated right away. We ordered the Pad Thai of course, and Garlic Prawn and Pork Satay. While waiting for our order to be served we were given a small dish of caramelized peanut which was quite good. After about 15 minutes the Pad Thai was served. I must say it looked different from the Pad Thais in the other Thai restaurants we've been to - and we've been to quite a number of them. This was because it had some scrambled eggs that "surrounded" the noodles. As for the taste - it was the best Pad Thai I had. The Garlic Prawns were delicious and was prepared in such a way that it was easy to remove the skin without having to use our bare hands. The Pork Satay was good, if a bit hard. Thankfully the peanut sauce was not spicy and just the way I wanted it. For dessert we had the Sticky Rice with Mango. There were parts of the mango that weren't that sweet yet.Overall it was a good experience. This place apparently is very popular as it was full by the time we left (a little before noon) considering this was a weekday. My only nit was that they only had two staff members who worked as servers and cashiers. To their credit they both worked diligently and did their best to please the customers.

Their juicy lamb shank is one of my all-time favorite dishes next to Chef Quarters' version. Add Tobasco to make it more exquisite and flavorful. The Angus Striplion was cooked perfectly softand big enough for two persons to share.Only weird thing here is that they don't serve bottled catsup; instead they provide customers with marinara sauce. Heck! No complaints here since its more expensive and better for my french fries :)
