Trying so hard to be chic nearly scared us away
The industrial decor and loud interior of this tiny spot nearly scared us away. What we found was good food at a good value. Problem is, it's not Thai. It's more like "Thai for the squeamish." If you like authentic firey-hot traditional Thai, don't go here. If you want a flavor adventure that's a very good value, by all means, go. The bar area is appealing to solo diners who want to drink and graze from the ample list of appetizers, too.
