Echoing the other reviews on here we found the food to be good. Not the best Thai we have had but very enjoyable. However the service was comically slow and disorganized. They would be well served to hire someone with some experience is running a front of house. It would make the whole experience much better.

On the positive side the staff tried really hard even to the point of... More

My work group often visits this restaurant for lunch. We all love it and find it a good lunch time value. Lunch specials have plenty of food for under $10. They always start you with some soup and a spring roll. I've tried most items in the lunch menu and have never been disappointed. They are typically slow, and we... More

We went for lunch (but are eager to go back for dinner next time we are in the area). The food was great- very authentic Thai food in a nice (and relaxing!) atmosphere. The menu looked really extensive for dinner although I thought the lunch menu was small. The food was very very good though. Some of the better Thai... More

Also known as Dan Thai. This place has great Thai food. Their pad thai, pad see eu, and spicy noodles are all amazing. The peanut sauce on their salad is the best. Nice atmosphere, helpful staff, fairly quick service most of the time (it was a little slow on valentine's day, but they also had a full restaurant and they... More

We dined and Thai Simulan with friends on a college visit based on some other excellent on-line reviews. It did not disappoint. We were promptly greeted by a hostess dressed in Thai attire as we walked through the door to the spacious, nicely decorated restaurant. The four of us were seated at a very large and comfortable booth. I enjoyed... More

My wife and I have been to this restaurant several times in 2011 and enjoyed the food and reasonable prices. On our last trip we noticed that all the prices have been raised about $2 a plate. This is out of line with similar restaurants in the area. We will not be back.

A group of 4 of us enjoyed a delicious, well-prepared meal last night served by attentive waitresses. An extensive menu preceded beautifully presented dishes of Pad Thai, Pineapple stir fry, and---as for me--a spicy dish of basil, chicken, and noodles. The soup was also wonderful. Most interesting was the extensive sushi and sushami menu, with all four of us ordering... More
