Reviews
This place hit the spot. We ordered the calamari, the crying tiger, and the drunken noodles beef. Every single dish was delicious. But the crying tiger was one of the most flavorful ones I had ever had. The calamari was super fresh as well. The service was very attentive. I was not expecting authentic Thai in a small town.
The room at 6 pm on a Friday was pretty empty. The tables are bare — no linens on them, but everything is super clean. The waitress very friendly and “masked” for pandemic safety. We used physical menus that have plastic on them.
We finished the meal with sticky rice and mango dessert. This was a work of ART besides excellent flavors. A guest with us (who grew up in Thailand) told us that this restaurant is “A cut above” typical Thai restaurants she’s been to in the U.S.
The pad Thai was too sweet. The Penang curry was not flavorful , watery curry, and the chicken was dry.
The appetizers were decent, I think the best dish was the calamari, very lightly breaded.
All in all, won’t return.
So I digress and on this holy day, the whole Napa Valley has taken the day off, but I found this gem of a restaurant open. I’m flexible so as my Chinese restaurant substitute, I went here, had no choice.
I’d never been here, but a Thai friend once told me that if you want a glimpse of a new-to-you Thai restaurant, start with Pad Thai as it’s their national dish and it’d be a good indication for the rest of the menu.
In remembering that little pearl of wisdom, that’s exactly what I did, an order of Pad Thai and I was pleasantly pleased. Pad Thai isn’t created equally, some are overly flavorful that it’s overwhelming and others, bland as cardboard. For me at least, this one order was perfection, the midpoint between too flavorful and cardboard.
I was solo so I had the disadvantage of ordering one dish, but there were other tables that had a variety and the looked great, but in reading how others were enjoying their meal, it appeared convincing it was a hit with others.
In summary, I give these folks thumbs up and perhaps my only other observation is that they’re a bit overpriced, but then again, you’re Napa Valley in Calistoga where things are expectedly premiumly priced.
