The noodles were cooked just right, and the presentation was appealing. Overall, it was a satisfying dish that I would recommend.

We ended up choosing Dara Thai Cafe for dinner. Due to their COVID-19 protocols, they are available for takeout only. We called ahead to place our order and it was ready 20 minutes later. While they prepare your order, you wait outside. We ordered Pad Thai with Tofu, Panang Curry with Tofu, Panang Curry with Chicken and the Evil Jungle Princess. The Evil Jungle Princess was very lemongrass-y, so if that is not your thing then you probably won't like it. I enjoyed the Pad Thai and the Panang Curry. We got medium spice and that was just right for me. The portions were huge. The four of us could have definitely just ordered two or three of the dishes and been fine. Overall, this was not the best Thai food that I've ever had, but it was still pretty good. For the price it is definitely worth it.

I truly regret choosing to eat there, as the barely edible contents in the styrofoam containers hardly resembled a proper meal. The food was inedible and not representative of true Thai cuisine, especially considering the unjustifiably high prices. The curry lacked any authentic flavor and instead tasted overwhelmingly of Chinese five-spice powder, with a texture more like weak soup. None of the ingredients seemed fresh; the meat appeared pre-cooked, frozen, and lacking in flavor, while the broccoli was clearly past its prime. My overall experience was incredibly disheartening. It felt as if they had set out to serve the worst possible meal.

Instead of plain sticky rice, I received sweet mango rice without any mango. It wasn’t ideal, as it didn't pair well with the other dishes I had ordered. Not impressed.
