I just paid them a visit a week ago on a day the smoke was awful, and they still had a full parking lot! I had called in my order ahead of time for takeout and it didn't take more than 2 minutes to be served. I gave them my name and they went inside to get the 5 pieces of chicken and large Mountain Dew I'd ordered. It was around $22 plus a tip which in this economy isn't half bad! The chicken is plenty moist and thick, the batter lends its own flavor and texture, and once you add a little salt to the chicken it's a wonderful case of beauty in simplicity! I also love how you can choose all white cutlets, all dark cutlets, or a mix of the two (I always pick this option.) Even though I love the thigh strips, I do feel the need to break them up with the breast meat, it would be too much otherwise. Their house made tartar is top of the line as well! This is a place that's seen a lot of ownership changes, so congratulations to the current family for making their own mark on this iconic place, while also respecting the legacy :). I will be back!

But generally, the quality has digressed over time. Today was noteworthy-- the Chicken Chili Soup I ordered today amounted to chicken broth only with black beans and corn. There wasn't any chicken and the container was only half full. It was as if they forgot to include some of the ingredients. And the Chicken Soft Tacos lacked spice. With the advent of so many more new Mexican restaurants here in Wenatchee, Taco Time needs to stay in the race. They can't just play the "fresh ingredients" card any longer--they need to control quality better. 3-Stars says Taco Time is average, no longer something special.

The salad base is three varieties of Romain lettuce, looks like spring mix. The diced apples are Granny Smith. The pecans are honey roasted. The chunks of chicken breast are huge. And the pomegranate vinaigrette dressing lasts through the whole meal...(again, see the pics). Halfway through the salad, there is still a balance of all the ingredients--they don't use lettuce as a filler! I am really impressed-- everything is fresh and crisp. This salad works because the vinegar balances the sugar, the floral quality of the apples and pomegranate balances the earthy, nutty flavor of the pecans, and the bright sharp flavors of the Romaine lettuce balance the deep umami flavor of the chicken and cheese. It is classic culinary pairing-- definitely a 5-Star salad!

Unfortunately, I was on a work trip, but I could imagine this being the first stop then walking off the food. It is on the smaller side of restaurants, but the evening I visited, there was a party of 8 seated towards the back. I'd recommend parties of 2-4 max, but they can accommodate more if it's a slower night. The service was good, nothing over the top, but nothing below average. As soon as I entered, I was greeted and sat at one of the high tops. This high top was on the smaller side, but since I was just a party of one, it was reasonable and I another high top right next to me to use as well. The food came out pretty quickly, which was nice and they were easy to reach if I needed anything. Very welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the crab Rangoon, crispy chicken Thai basil, and a Thai Iced coffee. The server recommended the crab Rangoon when I asked her which she would choose between the shrimp rolls, spicy crispy chicken wings, or the crab Rangoon. They were solid, nothing crazy, but good. The crispy chicken Thai basil was decent as well; again nothing over the top, but the right portion with some heart shaped rice to go with it. In my opinion, it could use a little more spice. I went with the medium, but it was definitely not spicy at all, so I requested the spice tray to fix that. The Thai iced coffee was exactly what I would want it to taste like. Yes, I would recommend this place. Keep the party smaller. I'll have to try another dish on my next trip out here.

The furniture is light duty but reasonably new. I ordered Won Ton Soup, Chicken Larb (both traditional Thai entrées), and Green Tea. The Won Ton Soup was what the Chinese would call Wor Won Ton, meaning with other ingredients, in this case chicken breast, julienned carrots, romaine lettuce and diced green onion, all in a homemade chicken broth. Indeed the chicken broth was the highlight of the entrée. The won ton noodles had no filling--just noodles. It's the pork sausage that makes the dish, maybe with a shrimp or two, but nope--this was just a good chicken and vegetable soup. The Larb was recognizable as such, but lacked several classic ingredients one would expect--crispy garlic, lemon grass, lime, mint, and peanuts. It did have the crunch of roasted rice, and a hint of fish sauce, but not enough to bind the ground chicken. And the lettuce was served as a chopped salad with carrots, not as scoops for the Larb. Overall, the meal was good, but neither were probably signature entrées of the restaurant. Consequently, I thought the meal was overpriced. And it didn't help that they charged three dollars for hot tea with the meal--complementary anywhere else! I shall have to come back and try their curries for which they claim bragging rights. Otherwise , for this 1st visit it was a 3-star experience, (which is good, right?). I will add, that the two waitresses were excellent, very attentive.
