I remember really liking it years ago, so I was curious to see how I'd feel about it this time. The service was dramatically quicker than they said it would be. They told me 15 minutes but it was ready after 7 minutes for pick up and the ambiance and vibe of the service was very professional. The flavor was good, but it was definitely milder than I remembered. I asked for a 5 on their 1 to 10 spice scale, so I expected a little more flavor and heat. It wasn't bad at all. It just seemed a little bland compared with what I remembered. I also feel like there could have been a lot more vegetables. I remember the green curry having things like baby corn, mushrooms, peppers, zucchini, and more of a variety of vegetables. I feel like all of those different vegetables added so much flavor and texture to the dish. This time, there were only a couple pieces of zucchini and a lot of bamboo. I actually really like bamboo shoots. They're one of my favorites. But when there's that much of one vegetable, it starts to feel a little repetitive. Maybe they just happened to have an abundance of bamboo that day. I think I just preferred it when there was a lot more variety in the vegetables. The tofu was okay, although next time I might try chicken instead. One other thing I noticed was that the curry came in a black plastic container. I personally have some concerns about putting very hot food into black plastic because certain chemicals used in some black plastics can potentially migrate into food, especially with heat. I'd personally feel more comfortable with a different food container, or even the type of container they use for the rice, which I remember them using for the curry in the past. The takeout was around $18, which I don't think is unreasonable, especially considering the portion. Overall, I still thought it was good. I just remember the curry having more flavor and a much greater variety of vegetables the last time I had it. I almost wish I had gotten the crab fried rice instead. Next time I'm craving Thai food, I may try some of the other Thai restaurants in the area before coming back here to see how they compare. But I'm still glad I stopped by Thai Spoon after all these years.

For Thai food, I can't recommend this restaurant enough…read more Many vegan options-- tom kha and tom yum soups, for example. Even the fried rice can be prepared without egg. (Go for the spicy fried rice!) In fact, most of the entrees can be made vegan with tofu as the protein option. But there is plenty for the meat eater as well as pescatarians. I eat fish in occasion and the salmon mango curry is incredible! The decor is okay- not fancy, but clean and comfortable. The service is good- generally friendly and prompt. It is BYOB.

I can't speak to the ambiance but I've passed by a few times before and it looks like a cute place. I think it just ended up being a bit cold but that's to be expected during lunch time delivery.

I do appreciate how the pad Thai wasn't super oily and greasy. It doesn't feel unhealthy chowing it down.

Everything cooked well, green beans onions peppers. Didn't get much basil flavor at first, but hit me later. Little too salty, 7/10 Green curry with chicken, mild. Very nice flavor.

The space is nicely decorated and well thought through, with some food travel content playing on a screen in the background in case you need to be distracted for a few minutes and wait for your order. The staff and owner seem very dedicated to delivering a high quality experience, even during a dinner rush with a refreshing number of orders passing through. In terms of the food, I switched up a few things and tried some different items this time. The tod mun was interesting and worth a try. My understanding is that it's pretty classic Thai street food: fried fish fritters/cakes with dipping sauce. The tom yum soup was maybe a quarter step back from what I remember, but a squeeze of lime fixed that. The kra pao seafood was interesting and worth a try, but not life changing. The Panang curry was deeply flavorful with extremely fresh ingredients. I continue to believe that this is one of the best Thai restaurants in the region, and there's quite a bit of competition out there. Maybe not the absolute best, but it's absolutely in the running.
