This restaurant is located at the corner of New Tech Park building which seemed lovely as it has full panel windows, making the place well-lit in the day. Staff was polite and greeted us in Thai both when we entered and left the place. The only issue is that the central aircon system was very high temperature, or just faulty, so it did feel quite warm. But this is not the fault of the restaurant. The place just felt warm in general even as we walked around.
We ordered Seafood and Beef Phad Thai. Before I move on to the reviews I must disclaimer that I don't think Phad Thai is a determining factor of a restaurant's standard of food, as I personally feel it is one of the more difficult dishes to nail and almost every restaurant serves it slightly differently whether in the ingredients they use, the texture of the noodles or the seasoning.
Boy: Beef Phad Thai ($8.90). I have never had Phad Thai before so I have no benchmark to compare this to but it tastes normal. Beef is okay too, reasonably seasoned but not really distinct. Would give it a 5/10
Girl: Seafood Phad Thai ($8.90). The Phad Thai reasonably flavorful, but could have more seasoning as a very large portion of noodles was served. Noodles was lacking some chewiness that I usually expect in Phad Thai, and could have a more distinct kick both in the spice and sweet/ sour department. Gelatin prawns were used for this dish. I would rate this a 6.5/10!
Overall, the bill only came up to $10.50 after service charge and taxes, which is reallyyyy affordable so I really can't complain. I might come back again to try some of their rice dishes!
Ambience: 3/10 because it was warm (altho once again, not the restaurants fault) but also staff talks quite loudly amongst themselves which is disruptive. There is also a hole in the wall between the restaurant and kitchen too, and some disruptive shouting does happen as the staff tries to communicate.
Service: 5/10 quite good except for the loud talking
Food: 5.5/10
Price: 10/10 ($5 per head with Beyond after taxes)
