This was our first time to this area of DC. After visiting the zoo, we were wondering around and many of the restaurants were almost empty except for this one. I took it as a good sign they had a decent amount of customers dining in on a Sunday evening. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and our server. All of the food came out fast and hot. We got the Curry puffs, which were good flavor-wise but were somewhat small for the price. The sauce on the side was amazing and felt handmade. I got the Pad Thai and was a little underwhelmed. It tasted very one-note and mostly of vinegar. I didn’t really get a lot of flavor from the peanut or the sweetness/savoryness like how I am used to when I order Pad Thai from other places. Because it was so acidic from the vinegar taste, I didn’t even really want to use the lime wedge on top. They did give me extra veggies with it when I asked which I appreciated! My fiance got the pineapple fried rice, and I liked this a lot better. My only complaint was the pineapple was cut into huge chunks and could have been cut a little smaller to be easier to eat and mix into the rice. The Thai tea and Thai lemon tea was delicious, and the mango sticky rice for dessert was fresh and sweet and amazing. The prices were a bit high on the dessert and appetizers, but the entree portions were very big and we were able to get two meals out of each entree. Overall, I would come back here if I was in the area, but I would not go out of my way to come to DC to eat at this Thai restaurant. It has lots of good things and the food was definitely not bad, just did not appeal to my personal tastes.
