You love this place, or hate it. I love it for the charcoal appetizers, and for the vegetarian curries. Approach other items with caution. A couple of people eating family style, only drinking tea, and watching it, can still get out the door under $8 each, but for most of us, that is too much restraint. What's good here?—well, just about everything I've tried. Salad rolls, while pricey, are delight rolled up, and they have a vegetarian as well as shrimp and pork version. Just about anything with gluten or mock chicken is worth going out of your way for. Indeed, the vegetarian Thai menu rarely fails—panang, Peanut curry, and more. There are microbrews, and bottled imports, as well as iced coffees and teas.

This place is now called Authentic Thai, and boy is it goooooood. Typical/reasonable thai restaurant prices, but above and beyond taste. I highly recommend it to all. Special tip: ask for extra rice with take-out orders.
