I really wanted to like the Pad Thai but it was the worst I have ever had. I understand it was suppose to be authentic but the wide mushy noodles and the heavy cream sauce on it was nothing like i have ever seen. I tried to have a couple bites but it was just terrible. The noodles should be tender and these were just mush. The Pad Thai should have a light amber fish sauce and this was some brown coconut broth like sauce. The taste was horrible. I have been to many places for Pad Thai and even reviewed Alton Brown's episode on "Good Eats" showing what makes great Pad Thai. It should be light and fresh and this was just brown gravy over mush noodles. Simply the worst i have ever had. I explained to the waiter that I didn't like the Pad Thai and he simply said this is the same as they would serve in the streets of Bangkok. He said i must be used to the sweet sauce. I said the noodles were mushy and there was no fish sauce. I'm not looking for sweet sauce. I'm looking for fish sauce on firm rice noodles like you typically find in Pad Thai. He took the dish away and simply said "I'm sure the cook will work with you on the price". I was charged $6.95 for a plate i didn't eat. I was never asked if there was something else or a way to replace the dish. I was very disappointed and strongly suggest not ordering the Pad Thai.
I have never had such good spring rolls! Fish tacos are great also!
